NEW YORK, Nov. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SkyAI, Inc. (Nasdaq: SKYA) (“SkyAI” or the “Company”) today announced amendments to its previously announced cash tender offer (the “Offer”), expanding the Offer to include 100% of the Company’s outstanding cash pre-funded warrants and cryptocurrency pre-funded warrants, as well as all outstanding cash stapled warrants and cryptocurrency stapled warrants. The Company has also extended the expiration of the Offer to one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on November 12, 2026, unless further extended or earlier terminated.
As previously announced, on October 27, 2026, Bastion Trading Limited and certain of its affiliates (together, “Bastion Trading”) entered into a tender support and settlement agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Company. Under the Agreement, Bastion Trading has agreed to tender all of its shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants and stapled warrants.
“By expanding the tender offer, we are providing all holders of our pre-funded warrants and stapled warrants with an equal opportunity for liquidity on the same terms,” said Paul Danner, Executive Chairman of SkyAI. “These amendments serve the interests of our security holders and allow management to remain focused on building our agentic AI financial platform.”
The Offer will expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on November 12, 2026, unless further extended or earlier terminated. The Company reminds shareholders and warrant holders who wish to tender that brokers and other nominees may set earlier deadlines.
Holders who have not tendered their shares yet should take action by contacting their broker or the Information agent. Holders who tendered their shares before the amendment do not need to take further action. Holders of pre-funded warrants who tendered before the amendment must tender again using the new documents.
Holders who have not received a DocuSign, or who have questions about how to tender, should contact MacKenzie at (800) 322-2885 or (212) 929-5500, or by email at tenderoffer@mackenziepartners.com.

The Company is offering to purchase, in cash:
- up to 48,311,489 shares of common stock, or 95% of the class, at $3.00 per share;
- up to 5,137,615 cash pre-funded warrants and up to 10,463,001 cryptocurrency pre-funded warrants, or 100% of each class, at $3.00 per warrant less the $0.0001 exercise price;

If all securities sought are tendered, the Company will pay approximately $214.3 million. The Company will pay for the securities purchased, and the related fees and expenses, from cash on hand of approximately $223 million. In the weeks leading up to the commencement of the Offer, the Company sold approximately 2 million SOL at an average price net of fees of $107.20 per SOL. The Company no longer holds any SOL and after the Offer is closed the Company will not be repurchasing SOL. The Offer is not subject to a financing condition.
The Company will announce the preliminary results of the Offer, including any expected proration, on the next business day after the Offer expires. The Company will pay for securities accepted in the Offer promptly after the Offer expires.
Subject to applicable law, the Company does not intend to withhold U.S. federal income tax from payments made to Non-U.S. Holders in the Offer. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors about the tax consequences of the Offer. See Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase.
How to Tender
Shares held through a broker. Holders whose shares are held by a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee should contact that nominee and instruct it to tender. The nominee may set a deadline earlier than the expiration of the Offer, so holders should contact their nominee as soon as possible.
Shares registered with VStock. Holders whose shares are registered in their own name with VStock Transfer, LLC (“VStock”), the Company’s transfer agent, can tender by signing the first DocuSign sent by MacKenzie Partners, Inc. (“MacKenzie”), the Company’s Depositary and Information Agent, titled “SkyAI, Inc. – Tender Offer for Up to 95% of Outstanding Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants at $3.00 Each”. They can instead complete the physical Letter of Transmittal mailed to their registered address and send it to MacKenzie at 7 Penn Plaza, Suite 503, New York, NY 10001.
Pre-funded warrants. All pre-funded warrants are held with VStock. Holders can tender them by signing the second DocuSign which will be sent by MacKenzie later today, or by completing the new physical Letter of Transmittal mailed to their registered address. Tenders of pre-funded warrants made before the amendment, through the first DocuSign or the original Letter of Transmittal, are no longer valid. Holders who tendered pre-funded warrants before the amendment must tender them again with the second DocuSign or the new Letter of Transmittal.
Stapled warrants. All stapled warrants are held with VStock and none are held through a broker. Holders can tender them with the same second DocuSign or the new physical Letter of Transmittal.
Holders who already tendered shares. A tender of common stock made before the amendment, through a broker, the first DocuSign or the original Letter of Transmittal, stays in place under the amended Offer. These holders do not need to sign again or give their broker new instructions.
Warrant holders do not need to exercise their warrants before they tender. Holders of pre-funded warrants and strategic warrants will receive $2.9999 per warrant, the amount they would receive by exercising and tendering the underlying share. Holders may withdraw tendered securities at any time before the Offer expires.
No Recommendation Regarding Participation in the Offer
The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has approved the Offer and the amendments. However, neither SkyAI, the Board, the Company’s directors or officers, nor the depositary and information agent makes any recommendation to any shareholder or warrant holder as to whether the shareholder or warrant holder should tender or refrain from tendering shares or warrants in the Offer or as to the number of shares or warrants a shareholder or warrant holder should tender.
Each shareholder and warrant holder must make his, her or its own decision regarding whether to participate in the Offer and, if so, how many shares or warrants to tender. Shareholders and warrant holders are urged to carefully review the Offer Materials (as defined below) and to consult their own financial, tax and legal advisors in making that decision.
