Exhibit 99.1
2026: A Breakout Year for Cycurion – Building Momentum and Shareholder Value
April 15, 2026
MCLEAN, Va., April 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cycurion, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) (“Cycurion” or the “Company”), a leading AI driven, tech-enabled cybersecurity solutions provider, today releases the following Letter to Shareholders from Kevin Kelly, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Dear Valued Shareholders,
I am pleased to provide an update on our progress and outlook for 2026. Building on the operational transformation achieved in 2025, we have entered the year with improved financial flexibility, a strengthened balance sheet, and a clear path toward higher-margin, recurring revenue growth.
We began 2026 with a solid foundation for growth. We are executing our strategy of both organic and inorganic expansion in a highly favorable cybersecurity market, where global spending is projected to exceed $500 billion by 2030, according to Cybersecurity Ventures’ 2026 Cybersecurity Market Report. This growth is being driven by the AI arms race, increasingly sophisticated threats, and rising demand for resilient government and critical infrastructure solutions.
Our ARx platform is purpose-built for this environment, delivering real-time, AI-enhanced protection that addresses these challenges.
We have approximately $112 million in contracted backlog, providing multi-year revenue visibility. This contracted backlog, combined with public health contracts expected to add approximately $1.35 million in 2026 revenue (with approximately $1.165 million in new annual recurring revenue), demonstrates strong momentum in our sales pipeline.
Our path to profitability is clear and focused. We are deliberately shifting toward higher-margin businesses by emphasizing the sale of proprietary products, particularly our scalable AI-driven ARx platform, and through targeted acquisitions of companies with complementary high-margin products, often delivering over 70% gross margins. This, combined with a growing mix of recurring revenue from managed services and our cost discipline, positions us for meaningful margin expansion and progress toward sustainable profitability in 2026 and beyond.
At current levels, Cycurion is trading at roughly 0.5x our trailing revenue — a significant discount to the broader cybersecurity sector, where public companies typically trade at multiples ranging from 5 to 12 times revenue (and high-growth platform leaders often command 10 to 20 times or more), based on publicly available market data. As we execute on backlog conversion, shift toward higher-margin product sales and acquisitions, and deliver sustainable profitability, we believe this valuation disconnect will narrow, creating substantial upside for shareholders.
2025 was a year of deliberate cleanup and structural transformation. We navigated transitory headwinds from federal government shutdowns and efficiency reviews. Despite these challenges, we executed significant operational improvements: implementing $2.2 million in annualized cost savings, reducing net debt by over 70% (ending the year at just under $3 million while holding over $5 million in cash), streamlining our capital structure, and continuing targeted investments in our proprietary AI-driven ARx platform. These steps have laid a stronger foundation for higher-margin, recurring revenue growth going forward.
We also confronted external challenges, including defamatory campaigns, suspected short selling and market manipulation, and unauthorized press releases. True to our commitment, we have initiated a John Doe lawsuit against involved parties and recently issued litigation hold letters to 16 market makers to preserve evidence. We will continue to protect the Company and our shareholders vigorously.
With improved financial flexibility, contracted backlog conversion, strategic expansion, and deliberate focus on high-margin growth, I believe that 2026 will be a year of revenue growth and long-term value creation for you, our shareholders.
We remain fully committed to our mission of securing the digital future. Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to providing regular updates on backlog execution, new contract awards, ARx advancements, and financial progress throughout the year.
Sincerely,
Kevin Kelly, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Exhibit 99.2
Cycurion, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) to Host High-Impact Online Investor Event with CEO Kevin Kelly – Spotlighting Breakout Growth in AI-Native Cybersecurity
April 16, 2026
MCLEAN, Va., April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cycurion, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) (“Cycurion” or the “Company”), a pioneering AI-driven cybersecurity and government technology solutions provider, today announced its excitement for a high-impact online investor event featuring Chairman and CEO Kevin Kelly. The event, hosted in partnership with FORCE Family Office, underscores the Company’s accelerating momentum as it executes on its “2026: A Breakout Year” strategy.
In an environment of escalating sophisticated cyberattacks — ransomware disrupting hospitals, nation-state threats targeting critical infrastructure, and AI-amplified dangers outpacing legacy systems — Cycurion delivers a transformative, fully cloud-native, hardware-free architecture. Its Cyber Shield managed security platform and ARx SaaS cybersecurity suite provide real-time threat detection, mitigation, and neutralization through a centralized 24/7 Security Operations Center, reducing response times from hours or days to minutes. Operating as a true “cybersecurity utility,” Cycurion enables organizations to access enterprise-grade protection without the burden and cost of building large internal teams.
“We are genuinely thrilled to connect directly with our dedicated shareholders — whom we view as an extended family united by a shared vision for long-term value creation — and showcase why Cycurion is uniquely positioned for breakout success,” said Kevin Kelly, Chairman and CEO of Cycurion. “With the global cybersecurity market projected to exceed $250 billion by 2029, a robust $112 million contracted backlog, recent multi-year contract wins including a new agreement with a Fortune 500 company supporting a major U.S. government agency, and the Company already demonstrating profitability at an early revenue scale, this event will highlight our integrated high-margin SaaS model alongside resilient government IT services. We believe we are on track for accelerated growth and potential valuation re-rating as execution continues.”
The FORCE Family Office partnership reflects Cycurion’s commitment to engaging a sophisticated network of aligned investors and family offices who share the Company’s focus on innovation, resilience, and shareholder value. This community stands together as Cycurion advances its mission while vigorously protecting shareholder interests through ongoing investigations into potential market manipulation.
Recent highlights reinforcing this momentum include new public health sector awards expected to contribute approximately $1.35 million in 2026 revenue, continued cost efficiencies, and proactive steps to safeguard the integrity of the Company’s stock.
