Drone as a Service (DaaS) financial

"ZenaTech's Drone as a Service (DaaS) platform provides business and government clients"

Drone as a Service (DaaS) is a business model where companies provide drone hardware, software, pilots, maintenance and the data those drones collect on a subscription or pay-per-use basis, so customers can get aerial capabilities without buying and operating drones themselves; think of it like renting a car or using a cloud service for flight and data. Investors care because DaaS can create predictable, recurring revenue and rapid customer scale while reducing capital needs for clients, but it also brings regulatory, safety and technology adoption risks that affect profitability and growth.

Counter-UAS technical

"Interceptor P-1 Counter-UAS drone platform advances the company’s integrated defense system"

Counter-UAS (counter-unmanned aircraft systems) are tools and tactics used to detect, track, and disable or divert drones that pose a threat to people, property, or operations. Think of them as a combination of a security camera, alarm system, and net that can find an unwanted flying device and stop it before it causes harm. Investors care because demand, regulation, and deployment of these systems affect revenue, contract opportunities, legal risk, and the valuation of companies that build or use them.

Early Warning Report regulatory

"ZenaTech Files Early Warning Report Pursuant to National Instrument 61-103"

An early warning report is a regulatory filing that publicly discloses when an investor or insider has taken a large or potentially influential position in a company's shares or plans significant actions with those shares. It matters to investors because it flags possible shifts in control, takeover attempts, or concentrated influence—like a neighborhood notice that someone is buying several houses on the block—helping readers reassess risk, valuation, and trading strategy.

provisional patents regulatory

"five United States provisional patents have been filed covering acoustic fire suppression technologies"

A provisional patent is a temporary, low-cost filing that lets an inventor hold a legally recognized filing date for an invention without getting a full, examined patent right. Think of it as putting a placeholder or holding a spot in line while you refine the idea, test the market, or raise money. For investors, provisional filings can signal that a company is trying to protect a potential product and reduce the risk of being copied, but they do not provide the enforceable rights of a granted patent until converted to a regular patent application.

partially-diluted basis financial

"owns 39,261,311 Common Shares representing approximately 24.81% on a partially-diluted basis"

A partially-diluted basis is a way of counting a company’s shares that includes currently outstanding shares plus certain likely additional shares from things like vested options, warrants, and convertible securities, but excludes more speculative or unissued items. For investors it gives a more realistic view of ownership stakes and per-share figures — like earnings per share — by showing dilution that is probable today, much as counting people with purchased tickets (but not those who might buy later) gives a clearer sense of how full a theater really is.

ZenaTech’s ZenaDrone Begins Testing Phase for Interceptor P-1 Counter-UAS Drone Platform

Low-cost VTOL autonomous interceptor advances company’s integrated Counter-UAS portfolio and defense system.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, (July 28, 2026) — ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology solution provider specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, today announces that its ZenaDrone subsidiary has commenced the initial flight testing phase of its Interceptor P-1, the Company’s low-cost, one-way autonomous counter-drone platform designed to physically intercept hostile unmanned aerial systems (UAS).

The commencement of testing represents a significant step in expanding the Company’s Counter-UAS drone portfolio and integrated defense system. The Interceptor P-1 is designed as a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), one-way autonomous interceptor intended to provide an affordable alternative to traditional missile-based drone defense systems and asymmetric warfare combatting drone swarms with multi-million-dollar missiles.

“Our engineering team has reached an important milestone as we begin flight testing of the Interceptor P-1,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., CEO of ZenaTech. “This program is focused on validating the aircraft’s flight characteristics, autonomous capabilities, and system reliability before advancing to increasingly complex interception exercises. We believe the demand for affordable counter-drone solutions continues to grow globally as military organizations and critical infrastructure operators seek cost-effective methods to defend against rapidly evolving drone threats.”

The initial flight test campaign, to be conducted by the ZenaDrone engineering team at the company’s testing range near its Mesa, Arizona facility, will evaluate vertical takeoff and landing performance, high-speed maneuverability, target acquisition and tracking algorithms, guidance controls, and communications reliability. Subsequent phases are expected to include autonomous target pursuit, moving-target intercept exercises, multi-drone operational scenarios, and integration with the Company's Zena AI Counter-UAS command software.

The Interceptor P-1 prototype was first disclosed in March 2026 which included a target selling price of under $5,000 USD, positioning it as a significantly lower-cost alternative to traditional missile-based and laser-based intercept systems for modern asymmetric drone warfare. In April 2026, ZenaTech provided a further update on its expanding defense manufacturing footprint, announcing the registration of Phoenix Aero LLC, a Ukrainian entity based in Lviv, which is being established to support future manufacturing and testing of the Interceptor P-1 and other counter-UAS systems as part of the Company’s EMEA operations. ZenaTech is in the process of setting up this office.

The Company believes that low-cost autonomous interceptors will play an increasingly important role in defending military bases, in maritime situations, at airports, energy facilities, government infrastructure, ports, border operations, and other critical assets against hostile drones and drone swarm attacks.

The Interceptor P-1 is being engineered to operate as part of ZenaTech’s broader Counter-UAS ecosystem, integrating with the Company’s AI-powered threat detection, classification, and autonomous swarm command software. The complete architecture is intended to enable a single operator to monitor, identify, prioritize, and respond to multiple airborne threats simultaneously using coordinated autonomous interceptor drones.

ZenaTech expects to continue expanding the testing program throughout 2026 as development progresses toward future operational demonstrations and customer evaluations. Further updates will be provided as additional milestones are reached.

ZenaTech's DaaS Oil and Gas Business Enters a Strengthened Market with Higher Oil Prices and More Than US$500 Billion in Expected Canadian Energy Investment Over the Next Decade

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, (July 30, 2026), ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology solution provider specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, provides an update on its energy sector field services operations in Western Canada. The Company’s recent acquisition, Velocity Geomatics, providing drone-based regulatory and environmental surveys to oil and gas producers, is entering a strengthened market with recent oil price increases of over 45% in the second quarter versus the same period last year, alongside Canada's oil and gas industry expected to attract more than US$500 billion in investment over the next decade.

“Our Drone as a Service business is a field services business that follows customer activity–when producers in Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan have more cash flow, they drill more wells,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ZenaTech. “Higher oil prices are improving cash flow for producers today, supporting drilling, infrastructure, reclamation and environmental compliance work that drives demand for our surveying and inspection services. Looking ahead, we also believe current trends and strong forecasts for continued investment in Canada's energy sector will provide a long-term tailwind to expand our Drone as a Service business in Canada as well as globally. Approximately 80% of Velocity's current projects already utilize drone-based workflows, providing an established platform along with an established customer base to further scale our drone-enabled services.”

In July 2026, ZenaTech completed the acquisition of Velocity Geomatics, known as the Velocity Group, based in Grande Prairie, Alberta. It is the Company’s first acquisition focused specifically on geomatics for environmental and regulatory compliance in oil and gas. Velocity operates from four offices across Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan. It serves leading regional and international oil and gas producers.

Publicly reported industry data shows that cash flow available to Western Canadian producers has increased materially year-over-year. According to Oil Sands Magazine, average WTI and Western Canadian Select crude prices during the second quarter of 2026 were approximately 45% higher than the same period a year earlier, supporting stronger cash flow across Western Canadian energy producers.

Western Canada's energy sector represents a significant growth opportunity for Drone as a Service. According to Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), Canada's oil and gas industry is expected to attract more than US$500 billion in investment over the next decade, driven by growing energy demand, expanded export capacity, and continued infrastructure and environmental investment. While higher oil prices are supporting increased customer activity today, these long-term trends are expected to drive sustained demand for drone-enabled surveying, inspection, mapping, and environmental monitoring services, potentially supporting the continued expansion of ZenaTech's DaaS business.

Oil and gas producer investment can directly translate into demand for Drone as a Service offerings due to new drilling, enhanced recovery, infrastructure expansion, and environmental programs require recurring surveying, mapping, inspection, monitoring, and regulatory compliance services. Asset retirement and reclamation projects are particularly attractive because they are driven by regulatory requirements rather than discretionary spending, creating resilient demand across commodity cycles.

ZenaTech Files Five Patents for ZenaDrone’s Acoustic Drone Solution for Wildfire Suppression, Positioning for Government, Emergency Management and Commercial Opportunities in Aerial Firefighting Expected to Grow to a $2.8 Billion Market by 2033

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, (August 4, 2026) — ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology solution provider specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, announces that five United States provisional patents have been filed covering a portfolio of acoustic fire suppression and aerial wildfire assessment technologies, intended for integration with its ZenaDrone subsidiary’s drone platform. These soundwave-based fire management solutions, when mounted onto the ZenaDrone 1000 drone platform, are designed to support rapid initial attack and enhance emergency response capabilities as an additional tool alongside traditional ground firefighting.

"Wildfires are one of the most urgent and costly natural threats facing communities today and we believe autonomous aerial drone technology has an important role to play in how they're detected, contained, and extinguished," said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., CEO of ZenaTech. "Our R&D engineering teams are developing proprietary acoustic-based suppression and assessment technologies for the ZenaDrone 1000, an approach we believe can complement, and over time, help reduce reliance on traditional water- and chemical-based methods, while keeping firefighters farther from the most dangerous conditions. We believe a coordinated swarm approach could also extend acoustic suppression's effective range and coverage well beyond what a single drone can achieve today, potentially advancing the technology from short-range, lab-scale results toward broader, real-world perimeter defense."

Acoustic fire suppression is a new technology that uses low-frequency sound --rather than water, foam, or chemicals -- to disrupt a flame at its source. Because nothing is sprayed or discharged, it works where conventional suppression can't, such as for electrical substations, data centers, archives, battery storage, and home ember defense, with room to expand into areas like aviation, marine, and industrial fire safety. As wildfires continue to intensify and utilities as well as insurers seek cleaner alternatives, acoustic fire suppression could potentially fill a gap. ZenaTech management believes the science is proven and the opportunity now is engineering it to work at real-world range and scale.  Further, the company believes whoever solves that first could potentially gain a first-mover position in a largely untapped category.

Looking ahead, a coordinated drone swarm could potentially extend this technology well beyond single-site protection, defending firebreaks and neighborhoods, catching embers before they spark new fires, protecting critical infrastructure, operating at night and in heavy smoke, and reinforcing fire lines as they weaken. Rather than replacing current methods, it's designed to work alongside them, buying time and protecting what matters most where traditional tools fall short

Wildfires are a chronic, escalating economic burden. Climate-exacerbated wildfires cost the U.S. between $394 billion and $893 billion annually, as much as 4% of GDP, according to the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee. The January 2025 Los Angeles wildfires alone caused an estimated $250–$275 billion in economic damage, per the U.N. Office for Disaster Risk Reduction. This widening gap between wildfire risk and available response tools is exactly what autonomous, drone-based detection and suppression technology is positioned to help close — and the market reflects it: Grand View Research projects the global firefighting drone market to grow from $1.2 billion in 2024 to nearly $2.8 billion by 2033, a 9.8% CAGR.

The ZenaDrone 1000 is a 7’x 12’ multifunction autonomous AI drone capable of carrying up to 40 kg of payload such as acoustics technology, with the ability to operate in coordinated drone swarms. It can be equipped with thermal imaging and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors, as well as engineered to integrate detection, targeting, and suppression into a single autonomous system capable of supporting rapid initial attack in wildfire-prone regions, including areas near critical infrastructure, energy facilities, and government lands.

ZenaTech expects to continue advancing the research, engineering, and field testing of its wildfire suppression technology throughout 2026 as it works toward future commercial and government pilots. Further updates will be provided as additional milestones are reached. Fire management organizations that wish to partner with the ZenaDrone for trials are invited to reach out through investors@zenatech.com.
