Exhibit 99.1
Quantum Cyber Completes Acquisition of U.S.-Based
Manufacturing Facility in Bridgeport, Connecticut
Quantum Drones Corporation Closes Purchase
of the Real Property Underlying an Approximately 50,000-Square-Foot Industrial Facility; Company Now Owns a Domestic Production Site as
It Advances From Technology Licensing to Vertically Integrated Autonomous Defense Manufacturing
NORWALK, Connecticut, July 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quantum
Cyber N.V. (Nasdaq: QUCY) (“Quantum Cyber” or the “Company”), a Nasdaq-listed autonomous defense technology company
assembling an AI-powered System-of-Systems platform for drone warfare, counter-UAS, and border security applications, today announced
that its wholly owned subsidiary, Quantum Drones Corporation, has completed the acquisition of certain parcels of real property located
at 38 Union Avenue, Bridgeport, Connecticut, for a purchase price of $2,300,000. The transaction closed on July 15, 2026.
The closing completes the real-property component of the Bridgeport
acquisition that the Company first announced through a Letter of Intent on June 8, 2026, and formalized through definitive agreements
announced on June 29, 2026. The real property was acquired from Arcade Realty LLC pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement, entered into
in connection with the Company’s separate Asset Purchase Agreement with Arcade Technology LLC covering the installed manufacturing
equipment at the site. With the closing, Quantum Cyber now owns the physical facility that it intends to serve as the operating foundation
for its domestic autonomous defense manufacturing capability.
The closing marks an important milestone in Quantum Cyber’s previously
announced strategic transition from a technology development and IP licensing company to a vertically integrated autonomous defense manufacturer
with domestic production capacity under its own control. It follows the Company’s June 2, 2026 announcement that it would assume
direct manufacturing of its licensed autonomous drone platform, and its May 28, 2026 announcement of plans to establish a U.S.-based defense-technology
manufacturing complex. With the facility now under the Company’s ownership, Quantum Cyber believes it has moved from describing
its manufacturing strategy to holding the physical infrastructure on which that strategy depends.
The acquisition is intended to support the Trump Administration’s
Executive Order 14307, which establishes American drone dominance as an explicit national security and industrial priority and directs
the acceleration of domestic drone production capacity. The U.S. Department of Defense FY2027 Budget Request allocates approximately $55
billion toward drone and autonomous warfare programs, reflecting a doctrinal shift toward high-volume, attritable autonomous platforms
deployed at operational scale.
By owning domestic manufacturing infrastructure, Quantum Cyber believes
it may be better positioned to participate in this procurement wave as a domestic producer, not solely as a technology licensor.
“When we signed the definitive agreements in June 2026, we said
we believed were turning a strategy into a binding commitment. Today we own the facility,” said David Lazar, Chief Executive Officer
of Quantum Cyber. “This is no longer a plan on paper — it is a real building, on U.S. soil, that we control. It gives us the
domestic production base we have said we were building, and it is the foundation from which we intend to advance toward delivering combat-ready
autonomous systems for our government customers. We believe we are moving to the next phase.”
