Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 23, 2026, Brightline Interactive, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 1,785,711 units (the “Units”) for $0.70 per Unit, with each Unit being comprised of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one warrant (the “Warrant”) exercisable for one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share (the “Offering”). The Company received gross proceeds of $1.25 million in connection with the Offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund current and future growth initiatives and general working capital. The Purchase Agreements contain customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations of the Company and the Investors. The closing of the Offering is anticipated to take place on September 25, 2026 (the “Closing”).
Subject to certain ownership limitations described in the Warrants, the Warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per share of Common Stock (the “Exercise Price”) and are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance. The Warrants will expire five (5) years from the Closing. The Exercise Price of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, reverse splits and similar capital transactions as described in the Warrants, including the previously announced 8-for-1 stock split that will be effective on September 28, 2026. Following that split, the exercise price of the Warrants will be $16.00 for each post-split share. In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants, the holder thereof will have the right to receive as alternative consideration, for each share of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such fundamental transaction, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable upon or as a result of such transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. A holder will not have the right to exercise any portion of the Warrants if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants.
If, at any time the Warrants are exercisable, the volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market exceeds $3.00 (the “Call Price”) for five (5) consecutive trading days, the Company has the option to redeem the outstanding Warrants, subject to further conditions as described in the Warrants. The Call Price is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, reverse splits and similar capital transactions as described in the Warrants, including the previously announced 8-for-1 stock split that will be effective on September 28, 2026. Following the split, the Call Price of the Warrants will be $24.00.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreements, within 30 days of the Closing of the Offering, the Company will prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement to register the securities underlying the Units, including the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and shall use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable.
The foregoing summary of the Warrants and Purchase Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Warrant and Form of Purchase Agreement, copies of which are filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.1, respectively.

Exhibit 99.1
Brightline Interactive Secures Strategic Investment Led by Drone Executive Allan Evans
Evans, CEO of Unusual Machines, Inc., Leads Investor Group in Personal Investment in Brightline’s SpatialCore Platform
ASHBURN, Va., September 24, 2026 — Brightline Interactive, Inc. (Nasdaq: BTLN) (the “Company”), the company building SpatialCore, an interoperability and operational context platform for Physical AI, today announced it has entered into an agreement for a private investment in public equity (PIPE), with gross proceeds of $1.25 million, of units of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock priced above the Company’s closing share price on September 23, 2026, led by Dr. Allan Evans, Chief Executive Officer of Unusual Machines, Inc. (NYSE American: UMAC), along with other participating investors.
Dr. Evans’s participation in the financing is being made in his personal capacity and is not a corporate transaction between Brightline and Unusual Machines. Proceeds from the financing are intended to support continued development of SpatialCore and to help Brightline pursue new markets and use cases across the Physical AI ecosystem.
Dr. Evans is a recognized leader in the drone industry. He has served as CEO of Unusual Machines since December 2023, previously served as Chief Operating Officer of Red Cat Holdings, and holds graduate degrees from the University of Michigan.
“SpatialCore takes the right approach to a problem this industry has not solved: giving autonomous systems, sensors, and platforms a shared way to understand the physical world,” said Dr. Evans. “That kind of interoperability is becoming critical as autonomy scales, and I believe the company that builds it well stands to capture significant value in a market that is still early. That is why I am personally leading this investment in Brightline.”
“Allan has spent his career building and operating inside the drone industry, and his decision to lead this investment reflects real conviction in the SpatialCore approach and where this market is headed.” said Tyler H. Gates, President and Chief Executive Officer of Brightline Interactive. “This capital lets us keep building the interoperability layer the industry needs and move faster into new markets and use cases as demand grows.”
Transaction Details
The financing consists of a private investment in public equity (PIPE) of units of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.25 million. The warrants carry 100% coverage at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. Pricing for the units is $0.70 per unit. The transaction is anticipated to close on September 25, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. Net proceeds are intended to support continued development of SpatialCore and Brightline’s expansion into new markets and use cases.
The exercise price of the warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, reverse splits and similar capital transactions, including the previously announced 8-for-1 stock split that will be effective on September 28, 2026. Following that split, the exercise price of the warrants will be $16.00 for each post-split share.
Additionally, if, at any time the warrants are exercisable, the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market exceeds $3.00 (the “Call Price”) for five (5) consecutive trading days, the Company has the option to redeem the outstanding warrants, subject to further conditions as described in the warrants. The Call Price is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, reverse splits and similar capital transactions, including the previously announced 8-for-1 stock split that will be effective on September 28, 2026. Following the split, the Call Price of the warrants will be $24.00.
