Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 1, 2026, Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Distribution, Co-Marketing & Strategic Partnership Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with Lovell Government Services, Inc. (“Lovell”), a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (“SDVOSB”) specializing in federal healthcare distribution. The Distribution Agreement establishes the terms under which Lovell will serve as a distributor of the Company’s medical diagnostic products to federal, state, and local government customers in the U.S. following applicable U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) clearance or other required regulatory authorization.
Under the Distribution Agreement, the Company has granted Lovell (a) a non-exclusive right to list and resell the Company’s products on open-market (non-set-aside) federal, state, and local government procurements in the U.S., and (b) a sole and exclusive right to distribute the Company’s products for all federal procurement opportunities requiring or favoring SDVOSB set-aside status, including procurements by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”), Department of Defense (“DoD”), and Indian Health Service (“IHS”), whether conducted through VA Federal Supply Schedule, GSA Advantage, GSA Multiple Award Schedule, ECAT, DAPA, or any successor contract vehicles. During the term of the Distribution Agreement, the Company may not appoint, authorize, or permit any other set-aside distributor to list, market, bid on, or resell the Company’s products within the exclusive set-aside territory.
Product pricing is subject to change by the Company upon written notice, provided that all prices listed on Lovell’s federal contract catalogs remain fixed for a minimum of twelve months from the original catalog listing date. The Company must provide Lovell at least ninety days’ advance written notice of any proposed price increase to allow for federal contracting authority review, and the Company may submit up to two price increase requests per calendar year. Lovell is required to remit full payment to the Company within three business days after receipt of payment from the applicable federal government customer for the corresponding order, or within thirty days following Lovell’s receipt of a valid invoice, whichever is later. Any undisputed amount not paid when due accrues interest at the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
In connection with the Distribution Agreement, the Company paid a one-time discounted establishment fee of $5,500 for multi-contract vehicle setup. Lovell is entitled to an approximate fifteen percent distribution fee on gross sales made through its federal catalogs, which amount is added to the Company’s cost of goods sold and does not reduce the Company’s profit margin. In addition, a two percent fee on gross sales is allocated for sales made through Lovell’s catalogs listed with DAPA prime vendors.
The Distribution Agreement provides for a co-marketing and strategic partnership under which the parties will collaborate in good faith to develop awareness of the Company’s products and technology among U.S. federal healthcare stakeholders, including the VA, DoD, Defense Health Agency, and IHS, following applicable FDA clearance or other required regulatory authorization. Activities under the co-marketing arrangement may include joint marketing plans, conferences, educational initiatives, product demonstrations, and digital campaigns.
The Distribution Agreement has an initial term of two years and automatically renews for successive one-year terms unless either party provides at least ninety days’ advance written notice of non-renewal prior to the end of the then-current term. Either party may terminate the Distribution Agreement immediately if the other party (i) is suspended, excluded, or sanctioned under a state or federal healthcare program or convicted of certain criminal offenses, (ii) is subject to bankruptcy proceedings, (iii) has a final, non-appealable judgment entered against it in excess of $100,000 that materially impairs its ability to perform, or (iv) permanently discontinues its operations. Either party may also terminate the Distribution Agreement if the other party is in default of any obligation and fails to cure such default within thirty days after receiving written notice of such default.
The foregoing description of the Distribution Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Distribution Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 10.1
DISTRIBUTION, CO-MARKETING & STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
This Distribution Agreement (“Agreement”) is made by and between Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc., 360 Massachusetts Avenue, Suite 20, Acton, MA 01720, USA (“Supplier”) and Lovell Government Services, Inc., 223 West Gregory Street, Pensacola, FL 32502 (“Distributor”), as of the last date signed by Supplier and Distributor below (the “Effective Date”).
WHEREAS; Supplier is the manufacturer, developer and/or marketer of medical products (the “Product” or “Products”);
WHEREAS; Supplier desires to engage Distributor as a distributor of the Products, and Distributor wishes to distribute the Supplier’s Products on the terms contained in this Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE; in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, Supplier and Distributor hereto agree as follows.
AGREEMENT
1. Distribution Rights.
a). Non-Exclusive Open Market Rights. Supplier grants Distributor a non-exclusive right to list and/or resell Products on open-market (non-set-aside) federal, state, and local government procurements as described in Exhibit A (“Services Solution”).
b). Exclusive Set-Aside Rights. Supplier hereby appoints Distributor as its sole and exclusive distributor for all federal procurement opportunities requiring or favoring Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside status, including but not limited to VA, DoD, and IHS procurements, whether conducted through VA FSS, GSA Advantage, GSA MAS, ECAT, DAPA, or any successor contract vehicles (the “Set-Aside Territory”) as set forth in Exhibit B (“Federal Distribution”). Supplier shall not appoint, authorize, or permit any other set-aside distributor to list, market, bid on, or resell Products within the Set-Aside Territory during the Term. set forth in Exhibit B (“Federal Distribution”).
2. Pricing and Delivery
a) Price and Orders. Prices for Products shall be subject to change by Supplier upon written notice to the Distributor. All product prices listed in any Lovell Federal Contract shall remain fixed for a minimum of twelve (12) months from the original federal catalog listing date.
(i) Supplier must provide Distributor a minimum of ninety (90) days’ advance written notice before any proposed price increase to allow for submission and review by the applicable federal contracting authority.
(ii) Any increase in Distributor’s cost of goods sold (COGS) shall not take effect until all applicable federal contracts are officially updated and approved. Distributor estimates the federal review and approval process will take between sixty (60) to ninety (90) days from submission.
(iii) Supplier can submit up to two price increase requests per calendar year, limited to March and September, each supported by appropriate documentation. Requests must comply with the terms and conditions of the applicable federal contract. Additional requests or exceptions may be considered on a case-by-case basis, subject to federal contract allowances and approval by the relevant contracting authority.
(iv) Pricing and Price Reductions. Supplier represents that pricing provided to Distributor is consistent with its commercial practices and is not less favorable than pricing offered to similarly situated distributors or resellers under comparable terms and conditions. If Supplier reduces its list price or offers more favorable pricing or terms to a similarly situated distributor, reseller, or direct customer, Supplier shall promptly notify Distributor and extend such pricing to Distributor or negotiate an equivalent adjustment, effective as of the date offered to the third party. This provision is intended to align with applicable federal pricing requirements, including price reasonableness standards under FAR 15.404-1 and, where applicable, GSAR 552.238-81 (Price Reductions Clause).
DISTRIBUTION, CO-MARKETING & STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
b) Ordering. The Distributor shall order the Product via electronic format purchase order (“Purchase Order”), submitted via email, based on the federal catalog-approved pricing, except in instances where orders require a separate bid quote.
(i) Distributor shall fulfill each order using the Product specifically identified in the applicable prescription, purchase order, or order documentation and shall not substitute another manufacturer’s product without the prior written authorization of Supplier or the ordering provider.
c) Invoicing. Supplier shall invoice Distributor on the date the shipment is received by the federal government customer, known as the “Shipment Receipt Date.” This is the date when the federal government customer or its designated receiving facility confirms receipt of the products as stated in the applicable purchase order or contract. If the federal government customer has not confirmed receipt within fifteen (15) business days of verified carrier delivery (as documented by tracking confirmation), Supplier may invoice Distributor based on the carrier-confirmed delivery date, and such date shall be deemed the Shipment Receipt Date for purposes of this Section. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if there are any issues with any applicable purchase order or contract that are caused in any way by Distributor, and the customer or its designated receiving facility does not confirm receipt of the products or does not remit the applicable payment, Supplier may still invoice Distributor and Distributor shall be required to pay such invoice.
(i) Each purchase order must have its own corresponding invoice with a unique invoice number. The invoice must include the correct Lovell purchase order number, an itemized list showing the quantity and description of each product shipped, the tracking number, the ship-to address, the shipping date, and the purchase order date. If only part of a purchase order has shipped, the invoice shall include only the items that were shipped and exclude unshipped items.
(ii) Distributor processes orders for federal customers subject to the Prompt Payment Act (31 U.S.C. § 3901 et seq.), which establishes standards for timely payment by federal agencies. Because federal agencies consistently remit payment pursuant to these statutory requirements, Supplier can expect a reliable and predictable payment process.
Except as provided under the optional Early Payment Program (EPP) below, Distributor shall remit full payment to Supplier within three (3) business days after receipt of payment from the applicable federal government customer for the corresponding order, or within thirty (30) days following Distributor’s receipt of a valid invoice, whichever is later.
Except as expressly provided herein, Distributor’s payment obligations shall not be subject to abatement, reduction, setoff, or withholding. Any undisputed amount not paid when due under this Agreement shall accrue interest at the lesser of eighteen percent (18.0%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
(iii) Distributor will remit payment using any commercially reasonable payment method, including but not limited to ACH transfer, check, or domestic wire transfer. Supplier shall be responsible for maintaining a U.S.-based banking account capable of receiving payment without additional fees to Distributor. If Supplier elects to receive payment via an international bank account or through a payment method that incurs additional banking, wire, intermediary, currency exchange, or transfer fees, Supplier shall be solely responsible for all such fees, and Distributor shall remit payment net of any such charges.
d) Delivery and Shipping. Upon receipt of a Purchase Order, Supplier shall ship, or cause to be drop shipped, to Distributor’s indicated location within the continental United States all items ordered by Distributor, as inventory levels allow. Supplier shall be responsible for the costs of standard freight, shipping and handling, and insurance for each shipment of Product. The federal catalog listing price for each Product line item shall include the costs of standard freight, shipping, and handling, as well as insurance for each shipment within the contiguous 48 states. Shipping costs from nonstandard shipping will be the responsibility of the Distributor. All Products delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be suitably packed for shipment in Supplier’s standard shipping cartons or containers.
3. Rejection of Products. Distributor may reject any Product that fails in any material way to meet the specifications provided by Supplier for such Product (the “Specifications”) within thirty (30) days of receipt (“Rejection Period”). To reject a Product, Distributor shall, within the Rejection Period, notify Supplier of its rejection and reason, therefore. Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of notice, Distributor shall return to Supplier the rejected Product, freight prepaid. As promptly as possible, but no later than thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by Supplier of properly rejected Products, Supplier shall, at its option and expense, either refund or replace the Products and reimburse all reasonable shipping charges for properly rejected Products; otherwise, Distributor shall be responsible for the shipping charges. Delivery via commercial carrier, US mail, or email (with confirmation of receipt) they shall be considered acceptable means of written notification for rejections.

Distributor shall not take any action that may interfere with any of Supplier’s rights in or to the Marks or engage in any action that tends to disparage, dilute the value of, or reflect negatively on the Products or the Marks.

b) Supplier hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend and hold Distributor and its Agents harmless from and against any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of any Claim resulting from or arising out of: (i) any Product defect or malfunction that is with a breach of the representations and warranties herein; (ii) the death of, or bodily injury to, any person on account of the use of the Product to the extent due to acts or omissions of Supplier; (iii) any claims by a third party of actual or alleged infringement, violation, or misappropriation of any patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, or other intellectual property rights arising from Distributor’s sale, distribution, marketing, or use of the Products or the Marks, including but not limited to claims that the Products themselves or any component thereof infringes any third-party intellectual property right (each, an “Infringement Claim”); provided that, the obligation in subsection (ii) shall be void if Distributor has modified, altered, deleted from or added to any of the Products (including but not limited to incorrect fitting/application of the Products), or has permitted, authorized or directed a third party to do any of the foregoing) (each, a “Distributor Violation”) .
c) Distributor hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend and hold Supplier and its Agents harmless from and against any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of any Claim resulting from or arising out of: (i) Distributor making any warranty or representation regarding Products which is not permitted hereunder; or (ii) any Distributor Violation.
d) Each party shall promptly notify the other party of any claim made for which the other party may be obligated to provide indemnification as under this Agreement; provided, that failure to so promptly notify the other party shall only relieve such party’s obligations to indemnify under this Section 9 if such failure materially prejudices its defense. If requested by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party agrees to reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party and its counsel at the indemnifying party’s cost. The indemnifying party shall have the sole right to conduct and control the defense of the claim and all negotiations for its settlement; provided, however, the indemnifying party shall not settle or compromise such claim without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as the settlement does not include any admission of liability by, or the entry of any judgment against, or the imposition of any liability upon, the indemnified party.

DISTRIBUTION, CO-MARKETING & STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
b) Obligations. The Receiving Party shall: (i) use Confidential Information solely for the purposes of performing its obligations under this Agreement; (ii) protect Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care; and (iii) not disclose Confidential Information to any third party except to its employees, agents, or subcontractors (“Representatives”) who have a need to know and are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those herein.

15. Non-Circumvention.
a) Supplier acknowledges that Distributor's relationships with federal procurement officials, VA/DoD contracting officers, prime vendors, and other government customers (collectively, "Protected Contacts") constitute valuable proprietary assets developed through significant investment of time, resources, and expertise. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Covered Protected Contact” is any Protected Contact to whom Products are offered or sold hereunder and for which Distributor provides written notice to Supplier (and if requested by Supplier reasonable evidence that Products were offered or sold to such Protected Contact hereunder).

Accordingly, Distributor shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, without the necessity of posting a bond.
16. Co-Marketing and Strategic Partnership.
a) Purpose and Scope. The parties shall collaborate in good faith to develop awareness of the Products and Supplier’s technology among appropriate federal healthcare stakeholders, including the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Department of Defense (DoD), Defense Health Agency (DHA), Indian Health Service (IHS), federal medical centers, military treatment facilities, and other government healthcare organizations within the scope of Distributor’s rights under this Agreement. Co-marketing activities are intended to support education, market development, procurement readiness, customer engagement, and commercialization and do not expand Distributor’s distribution exclusivity beyond Section 1.
b) Joint Marketing Plan. The parties may develop a mutually agreed written annual or periodic co-marketing plan identifying priority customer segments, target accounts or programs, conferences, educational initiatives, product demonstrations, digital campaigns, federal-market outreach, and other market-development activities. The plan may be updated by mutual written agreement and shall not amend pricing, exclusivity, fees, or other binding commercial terms unless expressly stated in an amendment signed by both parties.
c) Roles and Responsibilities of Supplier. Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) provide accurate and current product, technical, scientific, clinical, regulatory, training, and brand materials appropriate for the applicable regulatory status of the Products; (ii) provide reasonable subject-matter support for mutually agreed customer meetings, presentations, demonstrations, conferences, and educational programs; (iii) review proposed marketing materials and claims in a reasonably timely manner; (iv) train appropriate Distributor personnel regarding authorized Product information and messaging; and (v) inform Distributor promptly of material changes to Product labeling, regulatory status, authorized claims, or other information relevant to marketing activities.

Distributor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) identify and develop appropriate federal-market opportunities; (ii) introduce Supplier, when appropriate, to relevant federal healthcare, procurement, clinical, innovation, and program stakeholders; (iii) coordinate mutually agreed meetings, demonstrations, conferences, educational events, and outreach activities; (iv) leverage its federal contracting capabilities, SDVOSB status, digital channels, and industry relationships to increase appropriate Product visibility; (v) provide Supplier with reasonable market feedback, opportunity intelligence, and customer insights; (vi) observe all reasonable directions and instructions given to it by Supplier in relation to the marketing, advertisement, promotion, and sale of the Products, including providing all terms and conditions, instructions, consents, warnings, limitations and other information related to the Products as periodically required by Supplier and ensuring that its personnel use only Supplier-approved Product claims, messaging, materials, and representations; (vii) market, advertise, and promote Products and conduct business in a manner that reflects favorably at all times on Products and the good name, goodwill and reputation of Supplier.
e) Joint Branding and Marketing Materials. The parties may identify themselves in mutually approved materials as strategic collaborators, co-marketing collaborators, or commercial partners. Any use of the other party’s name, Marks, logos, quotes, product imagery, case studies, press statements, customer references, or jointly branded materials requires prior written approval from the owner of such materials or Marks. Approval for one use does not constitute approval for any other use.
f) Marketing and Regulatory Compliance. All marketing, promotional, educational, digital, conference, social-media, public-relations, and customer-facing activities concerning the Products shall comply with applicable laws, regulations, government contracting requirements, and the regulatory status of the Products. Distributor shall not make, and Supplier shall not affirmatively authorize Distributor to make, any claim that is false, misleading, inconsistent with approved or cleared labeling, or otherwise unauthorized. Before any Product receives applicable FDA clearance, approval, or authorization, activities under this Section shall be limited to lawful corporate, scientific, market-development, procurement-planning, and other non-promotional communications permitted by applicable law. Nothing in this Section authorizes pre-clearance commercial promotion or sale of a Product.
g) Customer and Opportunity Coordination. For opportunities developed jointly, the parties shall coordinate in good faith regarding account strategy, customer communications, demonstrations, quotations, contracting pathways, and follow-up. Distributor shall keep Supplier reasonably informed of material federal opportunities involving the Products, subject to procurement rules and confidentiality restrictions. Supplier shall reasonably support Distributor with information necessary to pursue mutually agreed opportunities.
h) Conferences, Events, and Thought Leadership. The parties may jointly participate in mutually selected conferences, trade shows, federal healthcare meetings, webinars, educational programs, demonstrations, publications, or other thought-leadership activities. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing for a specific activity, each party shall bear its own personnel, travel, and internal costs. External sponsorship, exhibit, advertising, production, or event costs shall require advance written agreement regarding allocation.
i) Leads and Market Information. Each party shall share business leads, customer feedback, market intelligence, and opportunity information reasonably necessary to advance the collaboration, subject to Section 14 (Confidentiality), applicable privacy laws, government procurement restrictions, and any third-party confidentiality obligations. Neither party is required to disclose information it is legally or contractually prohibited from sharing.
j) Public Announcements. Neither party shall issue a press release or other public announcement naming the other party or describing this strategic relationship without the other party’s prior written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), except where disclosure is required by applicable law, securities regulation, stock-exchange rule, or governmental requirement. Where legally permitted, the disclosing party shall provide the other party a reasonable opportunity to review the proposed disclosure in advance. Nothing herein restricts Supplier from making disclosures it determines are required under applicable securities laws or Nasdaq rules.
9
DISTRIBUTION, CO-MARKETING & STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
k) Performance Reviews. The parties shall endeavor to conduct periodic business reviews, at least semi-annually unless otherwise agreed, to assess federal-market activity, pipeline development, marketing initiatives, customer feedback, contracting progress, and potential improvements to the collaboration. Any forecasts, targets, pipelines, or projections discussed in such reviews are planning tools only and do not constitute guaranteed sales commitments unless expressly agreed in writing.
l) No Minimum Marketing Spend or Sales Guarantee. Except for fees, costs, or commitments expressly set forth in this Agreement or a mutually signed addendum, neither party is required to incur a minimum marketing expenditure, purchase a minimum quantity, generate a minimum sales volume, or guarantee any contract award, customer adoption, regulatory outcome, reimbursement outcome, or revenue level.
m) No Expansion of Exclusivity. Co-marketing collaboration under this Section does not grant Distributor exclusivity outside the express distribution rights stated in Section 1 and Exhibit B, and does not restrict Supplier from conducting its own corporate, investor, scientific, clinical, regulatory, or general market-development activities.
n) Ownership of Materials and Intellectual Property. Each party retains all right, title, and interest in its pre-existing and independently developed intellectual property, data, know-how, materials, Marks, and content. Unless otherwise agreed in a signed writing, jointly developed marketing materials may be used by either party solely for purposes of this Agreement during the Term, subject to the other party’s approval of any use of its Marks, confidential information, technical content, regulatory claims, or proprietary materials. No license to patents, technology, source materials, trade secrets, clinical data, or other intellectual property is granted except as expressly stated in this Agreement.
o) Termination of Co-Marketing Activities. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, each party shall promptly discontinue new co-marketing activities and, upon request, cease use of the other party’s Marks and remove jointly branded materials from channels under its reasonable control, except as necessary to complete existing contractual obligations, comply with law, maintain archival records, or implement the Transition Period under Section 9(d).
17. Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given: (a) when delivered personally; (b) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier service, prepaid; (c) three (3) business days after mailing by certified or registered U.S. mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid; or (d) upon confirmed receipt if sent by email with read receipt or delivery confirmation. Notices shall be addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth in the preamble of this Agreement, or to such other address as either party may designate by written notice.

Further, the following provisions shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason: Sections 2.c (Payment Obligations, to the extent of accrued amounts), 4 (Representations and Warranties, for claims arising during the Term), 5 (Warranties and Limitation of Liability), 6.b (Use of Trademarks), 8 (Indemnification), 9.d (Post-Termination Obligations), 13 (Miscellaneous), 14 (Confidentiality), 15 (Non-Circumvention), 16 (Audit Rights), and this Section 18. The survival of these provisions shall not create any new obligations beyond those accruing during the Term, except as expressly set forth in such provisions.
19. Assignment. Neither party may assign, transfer, or delegate this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that either party may assign this Agreement without consent to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of its assets, subject to the provisions of Section 10 (Acquisition); provided that the assignee executes an agreement assuming the assignor’s obligations hereunder in a form reasonably required by the non-assigning party. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section shall be void and of no effect.

| 2. | Fee: |
| a. | Establishment Fee: |
| ● | Distributor offers a reimbursement program for the Establishment Fee of Multiple Award Schedules. If your sales exceed $55,000 in the first two years, you are eligible for reimbursement. Simply request it. |

| ● | Manual contracts refer to all cases requiring individualized handling outside of standard federal catalog purchases and pricing. The vast majority of these opportunities follow a standard bid-by-bid process, in which the Distributor (Lovell) works collaboratively with the Supplier to review and approve pricing structures that enable the submission of competitive quotes. In these cases, payments flow from the Federal Agency to the Distributor, and then from the Distributor to the Supplier. |
| ● | On rare occasions, however, the Federal Government may mandate direct payment to a manufacturer. These exceptions may be due to Congressional funding directives requiring payments to be obligated directly to U.S.-based manufacturers or the application of the SBA Non-Manufacturer Rule (13 C.F.R. § 121.406), which restricts certain contracts to product manufacturers only. In these rare but recognized scenarios, the manual contract still falls under this section, with the following additional conditions: |
| 1. | The Distributor’s role in identifying, consulting on, or otherwise contributing to the contract opportunity—regardless of the purchasing method—is acknowledged. |
| 2. | The Distributor shall be entitled to the distribution fee percentage of the total contract value, whether the award is made directly to the Supplier or processed through the Distributor. |
| 3. | Payment to the Distributor shall be made within forty-five (45) days of the Supplier receiving payment from the Federal Agency. |
| 4. | The Supplier agrees to provide the Distributor with detailed reports regarding contract value and received payments to ensure transparency and accuracy in calculation. |
| 5. | All payments and conditions outlined here are subject to the terms of the existing distribution agreement, unless explicitly modified by this clause. |

Exhibit 99.1
Bluejay Diagnostics and Lovell Government Services Announce Partnership to Expand Access to U.S. Federal Healthcare Markets
Partnership Establishes Federal Distribution and Co-Marketing Framework Across VA, DoD, Military Health Systems and Other Government Healthcare Channels
ACTON, Mass. and PENSACOLA, Fla. — September 8, 2026 — Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc. (NASDAQ: BJDX) (“Bluejay” or the “Company”), a medical diagnostics company focused on improving patient outcomes through its Symphony™ near-patient diagnostic platform, and Lovell Government Services, Inc. (“Lovell”), a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Company (“SDVOSB”) specializing in federal healthcare distribution, today announced a distribution, co-marketing and strategic partnership designed to support the introduction of Bluejay’s products into the U.S. federal healthcare market following applicable U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) clearance or other required regulatory authorization.
The partnership is designed to establish a scalable federal market access and procurement infrastructure in advance of potential commercialization, positioning Bluejay to efficiently pursue opportunities across some of the largest government-operated healthcare systems in the United States, subject to applicable FDA clearance or other required regulatory authorization for its products.
Under the agreement, Lovell will serve as Bluejay’s exclusive distributor for federal procurement opportunities requiring or favoring SDVOSB set-aside and preferred status, including opportunities within the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”), Department of Defense (“DoD”), Military Health Systems (“MHS”) and Indian Health Service (“IHS”). Lovell will also have non-exclusive rights to participate in open-market federal, state and local government procurement opportunities.
Strategic Access to a Large Federal Healthcare Market
The partnership provides Bluejay with a strategic framework to access and pursue opportunities across the significant U.S. federal healthcare market, creating a potential pathway for commercial expansion if and when its devices receive applicable FDA clearance or approval and are commercially launched in the United States.
The Veterans Health Administration (“VHA”), the largest integrated healthcare system in the United States, encompasses approximately 170 major medical centers and 1,193 outpatient clinics, with a proposed FY2026 budget of approximately $165.1 billion. The broader federal healthcare opportunity includes approximately 45 U.S. military hospitals and 572 military medical clinics within the DoD healthcare system, with the Defense Health Agency (“DHA”) having a proposed FY2026 budget of approximately $64 billion. The Indian Health Service (“IHS”), with a proposed FY2026 budget of approximately $8.1 billion, serves approximately 2.8 million American Indians and Alaska Natives through approximately 170 IHS and tribally managed service units.
Together, these federal healthcare systems represent an extensive network of hospitals, medical centers, outpatient clinics and other care settings in which timely access to clinically relevant information may be important.
“We believe this partnership represents an important step in building Bluejay’s commercial infrastructure well ahead of potentially marketing medical devices in the US.” said Neil Dey, Chief Executive Officer of Bluejay Diagnostics. “The scale of the federal healthcare system is significant, and establishing a pathway into these markets could provide Bluejay with an important future commercialization channel.”
Dey continued, “We believe regulatory, manufacturing and commercial readiness should advance in parallel. Lovell brings established federal contracting infrastructure, SDVOSB capabilities and experience navigating government procurement pathways that would be difficult and time-consuming for Bluejay to develop independently.”
Lovell Brings Established Federal Market Infrastructure
Lovell Government Services specializes in helping medical and healthcare companies navigate the U.S. federal marketplace. Its experience includes working with VA medical centers, military hospitals and clinics, IHS facilities and other federal healthcare organizations.
Through the partnership, Lovell will leverage its SDVOSB status, federal contracting capabilities and industry relationships to support market development, facilitate appropriate introductions and pursue federal procurement opportunities for Bluejay. The parties may also collaborate on educational initiatives, conferences, customer engagement and other federal market-development activities.
Lovell’s established federal procurement infrastructure includes access to contract vehicles such as the VA Federal Supply Schedule (“FSS”), GSA Advantage, GSA Multiple Award Schedule (“MAS”), Defense Logistics Agency (“DLA”) DAPA and Electronic Catalog (“ECAT”). ECAT is a preferred DoD procurement vehicle for medical supplies and devices and is also utilized by the VA and IHS.
Lovell also participates in the Association of Military Surgeons of the United States (“AMSUS”), providing potential exposure to more than 8,000 federal health professionals through publications, meetings and conferences.
“We are proud to partner with Bluejay Diagnostics as they prepare to bring the Symphony platform to market. At Lovell, our mission is to connect innovative healthcare technologies with the federal healthcare providers serving our Veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. By establishing the necessary contracting and procurement pathways now, we can help position Bluejay to efficiently reach these critical healthcare systems following applicable FDA clearance,” said Chris Lovell, Major, USMC (Ret.), CEO of Lovell Government Services.
Building Commercial Readiness in Parallel With Regulatory Development
The partnership reflects Bluejay’s broader strategy of building commercialization capabilities while advancing its clinical, regulatory and manufacturing programs. Bluejay and Lovell may jointly pursue federal market-development initiatives and engage appropriate healthcare, clinical, innovation and procurement stakeholders in preparation for potential future commercialization.
Note: The Company’s Symphony™ rapid diagnostic platform is an investigational device and is limited by United States law to investigational use.
About the SYMON Clinical Study Program:
The SYMON Clinical Study Program includes SYMON-I (clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT06181604), SYMON-II (NCT06654895), and SYMON-III (NCT07425587). SYMON-I is a pilot study to determine IL-6 levels associated with various endpoints, including, but not limited to 28-day all-cause mortality and in-hospital mortality. The SYMON-II study is the pivotal study to validate the outcomes of the SYMON-I study, which the Company plans to use to support a 510(k) application to the FDA. The SYMON-III study is a pilot study to determine IL-6 levels associated with patients presenting with increasing severity of infection in the emergency department and risk of developing sepsis.

About Bluejay Diagnostics:
Bluejay Diagnostics, Inc. is a medical diagnostics company focused on improving patient outcomes using its Symphony System, a cost-effective, rapid, near-patient testing system for sepsis triage and monitoring of disease progression. Bluejay does not yet have regulatory clearance for the Symphony System, and we will need to receive regulatory authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration before Symphony can be marketed as a diagnostic product in the United States. Bluejay’s first product candidate, an IL-6 Test for sepsis, is designed to provide accurate, reliable results in approximately 20 minutes from ’sample-to-result’ to help medical professionals make earlier and better triage/treatment decisions.
