Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 11, 2026, Axe Compute Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with DataMeds AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEDS), a Delaware corporation (“DataMeds”),
pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, and DataMeds agreed to purchase, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock
of Helomics Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Helomics”), for aggregate consideration
consisting of (i) 636,328 shares of DataMeds common stock (the “Consideration Shares”), representing 19.99% of the shares
of DataMeds common stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing, and (ii) a convertible promissory note in the principal amount
of $1,363,672 with a conversion price of $1.00 per share (the “Convertible Note” and, together with the Consideration Shares,
the “Purchase Price”).
The sale of Helomics completes the Company’s strategic transition
to a pure-play neocloud GPU-as-a-Service company. Helomics was the final operating business remaining from the Company’s former
identity as Predictive Oncology Inc., prior to its name change in December 2025.
The Consideration Shares and the Convertible Note are being issued in reliance
on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and constitute
“restricted securities” under the Securities Act. The Consideration Shares and any shares of DataMeds common stock issuable
upon conversion of the Convertible Note are subject to a 12-month lock-up period from the closing date, during which the Company may not
transfer such securities except to affiliates or with DataMeds’ prior written consent.
The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the
parties, covenants, indemnification provisions and other terms and conditions. Following the closing, the Company is subject to a covenant
not to compete with the business of Helomics. The Agreement also provides the Company with certain registration rights with respect to
the Consideration Shares and the shares of DataMeds common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note.
In connection with the transaction, the Company agreed to pay to DataMeds,
at the closing, the remaining base rent obligations under two leases for the premises occupied by Helomics in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
(collectively, the “Company Leases”), through the expiration of the current terms of the Company Leases. The Company’s
obligation is limited solely to the payment of base rent and does not extend to any other amounts or obligations of the tenant under the
Company Leases, including operating expenses, taxes, insurance, utilities or other charges, all of which are the sole responsibility of
DataMeds and Helomics from and after the closing.
The closing of the transaction occurred simultaneously with the execution
and delivery of the Agreement on September 11, 2026.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete
and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
On September 15, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the
completion of the sale of Helomics to DataMeds. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein
by reference.

Exhibit 99.1
Axe Compute Sells Helomics AI Cancer Diagnostics Lab Business to DataMEDS AI, Completing Transition to Neocloud
GPU-as-a-Service platform
September 15, 2026
All-stock sale gives Axe Compute equity stake in DataMEDS AI; aligns APU’s operating structure with its
scaling GPU-as-a-Service business
PITTSBURGH, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Axe Compute Inc. (NASDAQ: AGPU) ("Axe Compute" or the "Company"),
a neocloud AI infrastructure platform, today announced the sale of its legacy artificial intelligence cancer diagnostics laboratory business
Helomics Corporation (“Helomics”) to DataMEDS AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEDS) ("DataMEDS"), a Health IT company vertically
integrating health data acquisition and transfer.
Under the agreement, Axe Compute sold its wholly-owned subsidiary Helomics in exchange for common shares and common
share equivalents of DataMEDS. This agreement provides Axe Compute with potential future returns from DataMEDS common stock while completing
its transition to a pure-play neocloud GPU-as-a-Service business. This transaction completes Axe Compute’s strategic transition
to a pure-play neocloud GPU-as-a-Service company.
Helomics Corporation is a Pittsburgh-based functional precision medicine oncology platform that applies artificial
intelligence to real-world tumor data to support drug discovery and cancer treatment decisions. It is the final operating business remaining
from Axe Compute's former identity as Predictive Oncology Inc., prior to its name change in December 2025.
"This transaction is the final chapter of Axe Compute's transformation into a focused, pure-play neocloud GPU-as-a-Service
company," said Christopher Miglino, Chief Executive Officer of Axe Compute. "Just as important, we structured it so that our
shareholders keep a stake in the future of AI Helomics. Rather than simply exiting the business, we are becoming an investor in DataMEDS
- a company whose health-data and AI platform makes it exceptionally well positioned to scale what our team in Pittsburgh built - while
we dedicate the entirety of our team, capital, and operations to meeting the accelerating demand for AI compute."
"We are thrilled to have completed this strategic transaction that thrusts DataMEDS into the field of oncology,
where we know there is a tremendous need to improve patient outcomes, using our data driven approach to healthcare," said Gerald
Commissiong, Interim Co-CEO of DataMEDS.
Further details regarding the transaction will be set forth in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by Axe Compute
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, available at www.sec.gov and at investors.axecompute.com.
