PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / April 8, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ:DVLT), a leader in AI-driven data valuation, monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization technologies, today announced it signed $750 million in aggregate tokenization contracts during Q1 2026, generating approximately $77 million in associated fees covering banking, IP licensing, minting, and related services. These contracts support the Company's previously stated full-year 2026 revenue guidance of at least $200 million.

The $750 million in contracts signed during the quarter span four key asset categories, with tokenization fees as follows: copper and gold mining associated fees covering banking, IP licensing, etc. In conjunction with this activity, the Company also announced the planned relaunch of its core exchange platforms this quarter: the Information Data Exchange (IDE), Sports Illustrated Exchange (SIx), New York Interactive Advertising Exchange (NYIAX), and International Elements Exchange (IEE). The patented exchanges will feature enhanced AI-driven valuation, smart contracts, and transparent trading capabilities for data assets, advertising, sports NIL, and tokenized real-world assets, respectively.

"Securing $750 million in tokenization contracts during Q1 underscores the accelerating demand for our patented exchange technologies and real-world asset infrastructure," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO and President of Datavault AI. "The relaunch of IDE, SIx, IEE, and NYIAX with upgraded AI features, including CLEAR, WatsonX AI, and Fiserv integrations, will further drive value creation for our partners and stakeholders, and these contract signings reinforce our confidence in our full-year 2026 revenue guidance of at least $200 million."

These contract signings build on the Company's momentum and support its previously stated full-year 2026 revenue target of at least $200 million.
