NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 13, 2026 / KIDZ AI Inc. (NASDAQ: KIDZ) (NASDAQ: KIDZW) (“KIDZ AI” or the “Company”), an education technology company advancing AI infrastructure and GPU compute initiatives alongside its core EdTech operations, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
The second quarter of 2026 marked a defining strategic inflection point for KIDZ AI. On May 26, 2026, the Company formally changed its corporate name from Classover Holdings, Inc. to KIDZ AI Inc., signaling a fundamental expansion of its mission beyond online tutoring and K-12 education toward AI compute infrastructure, GPU cloud services, and embodied AI robotics.
Management believes the global education and enterprise computing sectors are converging on the same foundational technologies — large-scale AI models, intelligent agents, and physical robotics. KIDZ AI’s positioning on both the demand side (AI-native learning platforms and robotics curricula) and the supply side (GPU compute capacity secured under existing agreements and data center infrastructure) creates what management believes is a differentiated, scalable platform for long-term value creation.
Management views this repositioning as more than a rebrand: it represents a deliberate transition from a purely tutoring-based revenue model toward AI compute revenue, robotics curricula, and infrastructure partnerships — a transformation the Company believes will define its next chapter of growth.
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
|
| · | Service Revenue: Service revenue for the second quarter ended Jun 30, 2026 was approximately $0.48 million, compared to approximately $0.73 million in the prior year period, a decrease of approximately 34%. The decline reflects the Company’s deliberate reallocation of capital and management focus away from tutoring customer acquisition and toward its AI infrastructure build-out, during a period in which AI compute revenue had not yet commenced. The Company is advancing its initial GPU cluster deployments toward revenue generation. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Net Loss Improved 35% Year-Over-Year: Net loss for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026 was approximately $2.50 million, compared to approximately $3.87 million in the prior year period, reflecting disciplined cost management during the strategic transition. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Gross Margin of 44%: Gross margin was 44% in the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, consistent with the prior year quarter, demonstrating the resilience of the core online education model even as operational focus shifts toward AI expansion initiatives. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Cash Position More Than Tripled: Cash and restricted cash totaled approximately $8.88 million at June 30, 2026, compared to approximately $2.75 million at December 31, 2025, providing the Company with substantially greater financial flexibility to fund its AI infrastructure strategy. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Convertible Notes Reduced 92%: Convertible notes payable decreased from approximately $8.20 million at December 31, 2025 to approximately $0.67 million at June 30, 2026, primarily through conversions to equity — a fundamental simplification of the capital structure that substantially removes a significant financing overhang. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Stockholders’ Equity Grew 163%: Total stockholders’ equity increased from approximately $3.78 million at December 31, 2025 to approximately $9.95 million at June 30, 2026, an increase of $6.17 million. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Stronger Capital Structure: Total liabilities decreased 65.6% from approximately $11.77 million at December 31, 2025 to approximately $4.05 million at June 30, 2026, and the total liabilities-to-equity ratio improved from 3.12x to 0.41x, reflecting both the lower liability balance and a larger equity base. |
Strategic Transformation
|
| · | Rebranded to KIDZ AI Inc.: The Company rebranded from Classover Holdings, Inc. to KIDZ AI Inc., reflecting the expansion of its mission beyond online tutoring and K-12 education toward AI compute infrastructure, GPU cloud services, and embodied AI robotics. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | KIDZBot AI Robotics Platform Unveiled: KIDZ AI unveiled KIDZBot, an integrated AI-native robotics platform incorporating persistent memory, reasoning, prompt- and token-based interactions, sensor-driven feedback, contextual awareness, and adaptive learning. The Company is actively developing multiple KIDZBot robotic form factors, together with an AI-powered software platform and companion app, as part of a broader KIDZBot ecosystem, with commercial rollout preparations underway. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | AI Compute Infrastructure Build-Out Advancing: The Company continued to advance its GPU compute and data center initiatives during the quarter, positioning its initial GPU clusters for deployment and future revenue generation. |

| · | EdTechX Award: KIDZ AI was named the winner of the 2026 EdTechX Award for the Americas, recognizing the Company’s innovation and leadership in AI-powered education. |

Management Commentary
“The second quarter of 2026 represented a defining inflection point for KIDZ AI,” said Stephanie Luo, Chief Executive Officer of KIDZ AI. “In six months, we have fundamentally transformed our balance sheet — more than tripling our cash position, retiring 92% of our convertible debt, and growing stockholders’ equity by more than 160% — while executing our strategic pivot toward AI compute infrastructure. As expected during this transition, near-term service revenue reflected our deliberate shift in focus; we believe the AI compute revenue we are working toward represents a more scalable and durable foundation for growth.”
“At the same time, we remain deeply committed to our education roots,” continued Ms. Luo. “We believe that the launch of KIDZBot and our EdTechX Award win demonstrate that KIDZ AI continues to lead in AI-native education innovation. With a strengthened balance sheet, expanding AI infrastructure capabilities, and a differentiated Physical AI education platform, we believe KIDZ AI is uniquely positioned, and we remain focused on disciplined execution and long-term value creation for our shareholders.”
Strategic Outlook
The Company expects to continue advancing its AI infrastructure strategy through the deployment of its initial GPU clusters. KIDZ AI intends to pursue additional GPU compute partnerships, data center relationships, and strategic transactions to expand its compute capacity and strengthen its neocloud model. In the education vertical, the Company will look to focus on the commercial rollout of KIDZBot and the integration of Physical AI concepts into its curriculum offerings.
