Arizona Tribune - Rochon Family Executes Strategic Purchase of AIAI Holdings Shares

This transaction represents a significant incremental investment by the Rochon family, further increasing their already substantial ownership position in Ai². The purchase underscores a deep and continuing conviction in the Company's long-term strategy, its differentiated position in Transformational AI, and the proven ability of its Board and management team to execute at scale. The Rochon family has been a longstanding supporter of Ai², and this latest investment further aligns their interests with the Company's long-term value creation objectives. This transaction reinforces a stable and strategically aligned shareholder base.

"This is not simply a financial investment; it is a statement of belief in where Ai² is going and how we intend to get there," added John P. Rochon, Sr. "We are building something enduring, with a focus on disciplined execution, durable growth and long-term value creation."

Ai² continues to execute against a robust pipeline of AI-driven initiatives across multiple sectors, focusing on enterprise-grade psychometric intelligence, scalable deployment architectures, and high-value commercial applications. The Rochon family believes it is well-positioned to capitalize on accelerating demand for applied AI solutions that deliver measurable business outcomes.

The Company was not involved in negotiating this transaction and will not receive any proceeds. Additionally, the Company expects to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 with the Securities and Exchange Commission next week. The Company notes that the period covered by the 10-Q predates both its direct listing and the acquisition of its Portfolio Companies and therefore will not reflect the consolidated financial results of those subsidiaries. The financial results to be presented in the forthcoming Form 10-Q will reflect only the historical operations of the Company's predecessor entity and will include transaction-related expenses incurred in connection with the business combination, as well as the effects of operational disruptions arising from, among other factors, closing the transaction, adverse weather conditions and military hostilities in the Middle East, each of which impacted performance during the first quarter. As a result, the Company believes the financial results that will be reported in the forthcoming Form 10-Q will not be representative of the Company's normalized operating performance.
