Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) announced it expects first quarter 2026 revenue to increase more than 500% year-over-year, driven by initial deliveries under a recently awarded $1,000,000 U.S. Government subcontract supporting deployment of its AI-Powered Edge Processing platform. Based on preliminary, unaudited results, the company said the acceleration reflects its transition from development-stage operations into revenue-generating government programs.
The revenue growth is supported by low-rate initial production, a strengthened balance sheet following a $14 million PIPE financing in Q4 2025 led by Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ONDS) and Unusual Machines Inc. (NYSE American: UMAC), and commercialization of its patented Safe Pro Object Threat Detection AI platform. This positions the company for expanded defense program participation and follow-on production opportunities.
