Xiao-I
Corporation Provides Update on First-Instance Rulings in Patent Litigation Against Apple;
Company Intends to Appeal to the Supreme People’s
Court
Shanghai, China, June 20, 2026 – Xiao-I
Corporation (NASDAQ: AIXI) (“Xiao-I” or the “Company”), a leading developer of AI solutions, today provided a
material update on the patent-related litigation between its variable interest entity, Shanghai Xiao-I Intelligent Network Technology
Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Xiao-I”), and Apple Inc. and its affiliated entities (collectively, “Apple”) before the Shanghai
High People’s Court.
On June 10, 2026, the Shanghai High People’s
Court issued first-instance judgments on two parallel cases:
| ● | Invention
Patent Infringement action (Case No. (2020) Hu Zhi Min Chu No. 7): The court dismissed all litigation claims filed by Shanghai Xiao-I,
in which the Company alleged that Apple’s Siri technology infringed Shanghai Xiao-I’s invention patent titled “A Chat
Robot System” (Patent No. 200410053749.9). |
| ● | Confirmation
of non-patent-infringement action (Case No. (2022) Hu Zhi Min Chu No. 3): The court ruled that the specified iPhone models equipped with
Siri do not fall within the protection scope of the subject patent. The court also rejected Apple’s claim for RMB 2 million in
compensation for reasonable litigation expenses, including attorney fees, translation fees and notarization fees. |
As previously disclosed on March 31, 2026, the
Supreme People’s Court of the People’s Republic of China issued a final and binding second-instance ruling upholding the validity of the
subject patent and rejecting Apple’s application to have the subject patent declared invalid. The validity of the patent remains final
and non-appealable. The Supreme People’s Court’s prior ruling addressed only the validity of the patent. The present proceedings
concern whether Apple’s Siri products fall within the scope of the patent claims and therefore constitute infringement.
The Company is disappointed with the first-instance
rulings on infringement findings. The Company respectfully disagrees with the factual and legal findings reflected in the first-instance
judgments and believes substantial grounds exist for appeal. The Company intends to formally lodge appeals with the Supreme People’s
Court within the statutory time limit. The Company will vigorously assert its legitimate intellectual property rights and interests in
accordance with applicable laws.
While Xiao-I remains confident in the merits of
its case, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the appellate proceedings. There is no guarantee that the Company will
be awarded any financial compensation or obtain a favorable ruling on appeal. Investors are strongly encouraged to conduct their own due
diligence and review all relevant information before making investment decisions.
Xiao-I will keep shareholders and the public informed
of any material further developments in a timely manner.
