Exhibit 99.1

Sharon AI Expands Partnership with VAST Data to Power AI Factories Across Australia and Asia-Pacific

Sharon AI to deploy 600PB of the VAST AI Operating System as the data foundation for its AI cloud infrastructure

New York, USA – June 15^th, 2026 – SharonAI Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SHAZ), a leading Australian Neocloud, and VAST Data, the AI Operating System company, today announced an expanded strategic partnership under which Sharon AI will deploy 600PB of the VAST AI Operating System across its AI cloud infrastructure.

The commitment makes the VAST AI Operating System the foundational data layer for Sharon AI’s sovereign AI infrastructure, serving government, enterprise, research, and AI-native customers across Australia and Asia-Pacific.

This deployment represents one of the largest and most advanced sovereign AI data foundations in the Asia-Pacific region. It positions Sharon AI at the forefront of Australia’s push to build independent, high-performance AI capability – keeping the nation’s most sensitive workloads, intellectual property, and strategic data firmly onshore while delivering the raw power needed for next-generation training, inference, and agentic AI systems.

Using a proven benchmark of approximately 6PB of optimized AI storage per 1,000 GPUs for demanding large-scale workloads, the new 600PB VAST deployment provides the scalable data backbone equivalent to supporting the data needs of ~100,000 GPUs. This is a transformative leap that cements Sharon AI’s AI Cloud platform as one of the most substantial sovereign AI clouds in Australia and Asia-Pacific.

For sovereign and regulated environments, control over data location, movement, and access is non-negotiable – and performance cannot be sacrificed. The VAST AI OS was engineered precisely for this challenge. Its breakthrough DASE architecture creates a true parallel distributed system that eliminates traditional bottlenecks. A single global namespace means every processor can reach all data instantly, without copying or moving petabytes around. Built-in multi-tenancy delivers strong isolation, guaranteed performance SLAs, and separate controls per customer – ideal for a cloud provider serving multiple sovereign tenants on shared infrastructure.

The companies will continue close engineering collaboration to optimize the platform as Sharon AI’s customer workloads and AI factory ambitions scale rapidly.

“Our customers refuse to choose between keeping their data sovereign and running AI at full speed – they need both at the highest level,” said James Manning, Co-Founder and CEO of Sharon AI. “Standardizing on the VAST AI Operating System at this unprecedented 600PB scale gives us exactly that: a rock-solid, high-performance foundation we can scale confidently as demand for sovereign AI across Australia and Asia-Pacific accelerates. This is how we build Australia’s AI future – powerful, secure, and proudly local.”

“Every breakthrough Sharon AI enables – in research, medicine, industry, or national capability – runs on data, and it only moves as fast and safely as the foundation beneath it,” said Renen Hallak, Founder and CEO of VAST Data. “As the data foundation for Sharon AI’s sovereign cloud, we are proud to partner with them to support Australia’s hardest and most strategic AI ambitions. The VAST AI OS turns massive data estates into real-time intelligence assets, all while respecting sovereign boundaries. This is the future of AI infrastructure.”

In some cases you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “project,” “strategy,” “plan,” “expect,” “goal,” “seek,” “future,” “likely” or the negative or plural of these words or similar expressions or references to future periods. Forward-looking statements in this release include specific statements regarding the completion of the offering and the intended use of proceeds.

In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. You are cautioned that such statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results or developments may differ materially from those set forth in these forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements.
