PHILADELPHIA, PA, Aug. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exyn Technologies ("Exyn" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: EXYN, EXYNW), a leader in autonomous mapping and perception-driven navigation for complex, GPS-denied environments, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Recent Strategic Highlights:
- Advanced its defense strategy by rebranding its government subsidiary as Exyn Defense and initiating the Green UAS certification process for the Nexys autonomous mapping platform, strengthening the Company's position to expand deployments across the U.S. Department of War, federal agencies, and allied organizations.
- Expanded into the multibillion-dollar defense sustainment market through an agreement supporting autonomous aircraft inspection and digital twin initiatives at the U.S. Air Force's Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex.
- Strengthened its position within the U.S. government market after Nexys was selected by a leading U.S. government research and engineering organization following a competitive evaluation against commercial LiDAR systems.
- During the first half of 2026, Exyn secured new customer contracts across mining, infrastructure, and U.S. government sectors spanning three continents, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, reflecting accelerating demand for autonomous mapping in GPS-denied environments.

“The second quarter marked an important milestone in Exyn's evolution as we accelerated our expansion into defense while continuing to strengthen the core technology that differentiates our business,” commented Ben Williams, Chief Operating Officer of Exyn Technologies. “Having successfully completed our initial public offering in May 2026, we are now focused on executing our growth strategy, working to expand top-line revenue, increasing software and subscription adoption, and scaling our platform across commercial and defense markets. At the heart of Exyn is ExynAI, our proprietary, hardware-agnostic autonomy platform that enables robots to operate independently in GPS-denied, communications-contested, and other complex environments where traditional systems cannot. We believe this technology represents a significant competitive moat, built through years of real-world deployments and millions of autonomous decisions across demanding industrial applications. That same autonomy engine powers our Nexys platform today and can be licensed to third-party manufacturers through our software development kit and application programming interface, enabling them to integrate Level 4B autonomy directly into their platforms without developing autonomy from scratch. This software-first model is intended to create the opportunity for high-margin, recurring revenue while allowing us to scale across an expanding installed base of third-party systems. While second-quarter revenue reflected the timing of customer deployments, we continued to increase the contribution of higher-margin software and subscription revenue, driving gross margin expansion and reinforcing our strategy of building a scalable, recurring revenue business.”
“As governments increasingly prioritize autonomous capabilities, we believe the same technology proven in mining, infrastructure, and industrial environments is uniquely suited for defense and national security missions. Our recent launch of Exyn Defense, progress toward Green UAS certification, and growing engagement with U.S. government customers reinforce our conviction that defense represents one of the largest long-term growth opportunities for Exyn. Our commercial business continues to validate and strengthen ExynAI through real-world deployments, reinforcing the technology moat that is defined to differentiate our platform while creating capabilities that we believe translate directly into defense applications. Looking ahead, we expect commercial execution, expanding software and subscription revenue, and continued momentum in our defense initiatives to support revenue growth in the second half of the year while further improving the quality of our revenue mix.”
