ZenaTech Letter to Shareholders Outlines 316% Q2 Revenue Growth and Seventh Consecutive Quarter of Sequential Growth
Drone as a Service generated $8.6 million, or nearly 93% of Q2 revenue, as the Company expanded its operating platform and advanced its defense technology portfolio
Vancouver, British Columbia (October 1, 2026) — ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) ("ZenaTech" or the "Company"), a technology solution provider specializing in AI-powered drones, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS and Quantum Computing solutions, today provides a business update and future outlook in a letter to shareholders from CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D. Unless otherwise indicated, all financial figures are expressed in Canadian dollars.
To our valued shareholders,
ZenaTech continues its evolution from a technology development company with a software revenue base to a diversified, multi-product and vertically integrated operating company with a scalable Drone as a Service platform, and advancing commercial, government and defense drone technology portfolio, and an enterprise software business.
I am proud of what we accomplished during the first half of 2026. We continued to execute our business plan, scale our DaaS operations and advance our drone and software platforms for business, government and defense markets.
Second-quarter revenue reached $9.3 million, up 316% year over year, while revenue for the first six months reached $17.7 million, up 425% from the comparable period last year. First-half revenue also exceeded our full-year 2025 revenue of $12.9 million by approximately 37%. Drone as a Service remained our primary revenue engine, contributing $8.6 million, or nearly 93% of total revenue in the quarter, and $16.4 million during the first half.
We have now delivered seven consecutive quarters of sequential revenue growth since Q4 2024. Quarterly revenue increased more than 13 times over that period, from approximately $0.7 million in Q4 2024 to $9.3 million in Q2 2026.
In June 2026, ZenaTech was added to the Russell 3000® Index, an important market-recognition milestone as we continue to expand the Company.
Our Q2 operating expenses increased with our larger workforce, acquired operations, sales and marketing activity, technology development and public-company costs. We recognize that scaling revenue must ultimately translate into improved operating leverage. Our focus is therefore not only on adding locations, but also on integrating them, deploying drone-enabled workflows and expanding higher-value data and analytics services.
Drone as a Service
The scale of our operating platform continues to expand. In Q2 2026, we completed four land survey and legacy service business acquisitions, bringing our cumulative DaaS acquisition count to 24 at June 30. Subsequent transactions increased that count to 29 to date and expanded our presence into additional sectors and regions, including Alberta, Ohio, Idaho and, most recently, Georgia. ZenaTech's DaaS operations now have a physical presence in 14 U.S. states. We also expanded our corporate footprint with offices in South Korea and the United Kingdom, while our broader DaaS operations and acquisition activity extend across the U.S., Canada, the UK and Australia.
We chose land surveying and related engineering services deliberately. These are essential, fragmented industries facing a shortage of licensed professionals, while many workflows remain manual and dependent on decades-old processes. By combining established local operators and customer relationships with drones, LiDAR, centralized data processing and analytics, we believe we can increase field capacity, shorten project timelines and improve data and precision. For customers, that can mean faster and more useful information. For shareholders, it creates a platform through which technology, shared services and new offerings can be deployed across a growing revenue base.
Our objective is to build a scaled, technology-enabled global Drone as a Service platform. We acquire established operating companies with licensed professionals, existing customers and specialized expertise, then connect them with ZenaDrone technology, software, AI, analytics and our vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities. Each acquisition adds an existing revenue base upon consolidation. As integration progresses, we believe drone-enabled workflows can reduce costs per job, increase capacity and support margin improvement.
Scale matters because each new location expands the customer base into which we can deploy differentiated technology and data services and broadens the types of contracts we can pursue. We will continue to target acquisitions in sectors ready for drone-enabled modernization as we enter new U.S. states and international markets. At the time of our Q2 results announcement, signed acquisition offers across the U.S., Canada and Australia, if completed, were expected to contribute approximately $40 million in revenue during the first 12 months following closing.
Defense Technology Progress
Our defense technology portfolio is an important component of our long-term strategy, and we continue to advance product development, certification and customer engagement as demand for commercial and defense drone solutions grows.
The ZenaDrone 1000, IQ Nano and IQ Square have advanced into the cybersecurity phase of the Blue UAS certification process, while the IQ Quad is also progressing toward certification. Blue UAS certification supports eligibility for U.S. government and defense procurement. We are also moving from internal development toward customer-facing demonstrations. We have received our first confirmed U.S. government defense agency demonstration request and are planning demonstrations involving the IQ Nano, ZenaDrone 1000 and IQ Square for applications including inspections, surveys, specialized cargo, reconnaissance and inventory management. We believe this progress strengthens our ability to pursue future pilots and potential contracts.
We continue to build out our Counter-UAS platform to offer cost-effective solutions. Low-cost hostile drones can be extraordinarily expensive to counter using traditional intercept methods. The Interceptor P-1 is our low-cost, one-way autonomous interceptor designed to physically engage hostile drones, with a target selling price of under US$5,000. It has entered flight testing. We have also advanced our IQ Aqua underwater mine-detection drone into U.S. field testing in Florida and are progressing development of the larger gas-powered ZenaDrone 2000 and IQ Glider autonomous maritime launch and refueling platform. Together, these technologies form part of a broader integrated Counter-UAS architecture intended to be supported by Zena AI and our research involving detection and swarm-command capabilities.
ZenaDrone has also begun in-house flight testing of custom-designed printed circuit boards manufactured by our Taiwan-based Spider Vision Sensors subsidiary and integrated at our UAE facility, advancing our vertical-integration strategy toward NDAA-compliant drones and Blue UAS certification.
Geographically, we are developing capabilities for U.S. and allied defense markets, including potential NATO and Gulf-state opportunities. Our Ukraine-based manufacturing and testing operation is being established with a planned focus on Counter-UAS and interceptor drones, and we registered Phoenix Aero as our Western Ukraine-based company.
Enterprise Software
Enterprise SaaS revenue was $702,315 in Q2, an increase of approximately 6% from the prior-year quarter. First-half Enterprise SaaS revenue was $1.29 million, compared with $1.39 million a year earlier. During the quarter, we added NOW Solutions, an HR and payroll software business serving government and institutional customers.
We also announced Zoo Office™, the next evolution of our enterprise software strategy. Our vision is an AI-powered enterprise productivity platform that will include the Company's existing 13 software brands together with new applications under development. It is intended to provide an integrated business environment in which AI can understand organizational context, automate repetitive workflows, execute tasks and support better decisions.
We have also expanded ZenaWorx virtual design and construction progress monitoring with digital-terrain-modeling capabilities and signed the Company's first paying customer in the AI data-center construction market.
Outlook for the Remainder of 2026
As we move through the second half of 2026, we believe we are positioned to continue building the business. Our priorities remain integrating and scaling our platforms, converting technology investment into revenue, and continuing the disciplined M&A activity that has driven our growth.
In DaaS, we are working to close transactions covered by signed acquisition offers while continuing to integrate acquired survey, inspection and power-washing businesses into drone-based delivery. Our objectives include reducing the cost per survey and per job, increasing capacity and geographic reach, supporting margin expansion, and introducing additional data and analytics services with centralized processing.
In drone technology and defense, we are advancing product development, the Blue UAS certification process and engagement with U.S. defense agencies. These activities are intended to support additional demonstration requests, potential procurement-list inclusion, pilots and future government revenue. We are also progressing our Counter-UAS and interceptor programs and establishing Ukraine-based testing and manufacturing capabilities to support product-development objectives.
Our manufacturing priorities include further commissioning facilities, expanding production capabilities and growing manufacturing and testing teams across Mesa, Arizona; Sharjah, UAE; and Taipei, Taiwan.
In enterprise software, we are continuing the rollout of Zoo Office™, our planned AI-powered enterprise productivity platform incorporating 13 existing software brands and designed to support future Enterprise SaaS revenue opportunities.
Finally, we will continue to manage our balance sheet carefully as we fund organic growth, integrate acquisitions and pursue additional disciplined transactions.
ZenaTech is a very different company than it was a year ago. We have moved from primarily developing software and technologies to building a larger operating platform with revenue, customers, acquired businesses, manufacturing capabilities, software products and a growing defense opportunity pipeline.
I am proud of what we have accomplished to date and the results we have delivered. We remain committed to building long-term shareholder value as we scale the business. I am grateful for your continued support and confidence, and I look forward to sharing our progress throughout the remainder of 2026.
Sincerely,
Shaun Passley, Ph.D.

ZenaTech Advances ZenaDrone 2000 Heavy-Lift Interceptor Toward Flight Testing for Counter-UAS and Maritime Defense
Gasoline-powered platform designed for more than four hours of hover endurance advances through prototype assembly, adding a long-endurance, heavy-payload capability to ZenaTech’s counter-UAS portfolio alongside the Interceptor P-1
Vancouver, British Columbia (October 6, 2026) — ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) ("ZenaTech" or the "Company"), a technology solution provider specializing in AI-powered drones, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS and Quantum Computing solutions, provides an update on the ZenaDrone 2000, its heavy-lift autonomous interceptor designed to counter hostile drones and coordinated swarm attacks over land and sea. ZenaDrone is building the first full prototype and part of an integrated defense system, at its facility in Sharjah, UAE, and now expects to begin flight testing in the first quarter of 2027.
Recent build milestones include:
·Airframe and folding arm structure completed
·Gasoline propulsion system and 36-inch propellers bench-tested
·Flight controller and autonomy software in ground testing
Once assembly is complete, the first flight test phase will validate takeoff, hover and landing at full and partial payload, endurance toward the 4+ hour hover rating, the 360-degree detection system, and autonomous navigation. Later phases are expected to add autonomous threat pursuit, multi-target engagement, swarm coordination with the Interceptor P-1, and maritime launch and recovery from ZenaDrone's IQ Glider marine launch and refueling station.
Specification | ZenaDrone 2000 |
Max takeoff weight | 200 kg |
Payload capacity | 40 kg |
Hover endurance | 4+ hours |
Propulsion | Gasoline, 4 × 36-inch propellers |
Sensors | Cameras providing 360-degree coverage |
Footprint (folded / deployed) | 224.8 × 82.0 cm / 180.4 × 365.8 cm |
The ZenaDrone 2000 is designed to fill a gap between small, single-use interceptors and costly missile-based air defense. Its long endurance capability allows it to stay airborne over a base, port, vessel or border crossing for hours, while its 40 kg payload supports heavier sensors and counter-drone effectors. Paired with the low-cost Interceptor P-1, which recently began its own flight testing, it is designed to give defense customers a layered system: the ZenaDrone 2000 watches and coordinates, and P-1 interceptors engage.
"The ZenaDrone 2000 is the largest and most capable aircraft we have built, and we are taking the time to get the prototype right before it flies," said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., CEO of ZenaTech. "Militaries, navies and border agencies need counter-drone systems that can stay on station for hours and respond to many threats at once, at a cost they can field at scale. With the Interceptor P-1 already inflight testing and the ZenaDrone 2000 moving through its build, we are assembling a complete, affordable counter-UAS layer for the U.S., our allies and partners in the Middle East for a counter-UAS market that industry analysts indicate could exceed USD $20 billion by 2030."
Recent conflicts across the Middle East and beyond have exposed a glaring imbalance in modern air defense economics. Gulf nations and their allies have been forced to deploy interceptor missiles costing hundreds of thousands — or even millions — of dollars to destroy drones from hostile nations that could be valued at $20,000. This unsustainable cost asymmetry is being exploited by adversaries who can field swarms of low-cost, slow-moving aerial threats faster than conventional defense systems can economically respond. The global defense community has recognized that the most practical, scalable, and affordable answer to the drone threat is not another expensive missile — it is a better, smarter, faster drone.
ZenaTech expects to announce further updates on the ZenaDrone 2000 as milestones are achieved and as the prototype build is complete.

ZenaTech’s ZenaDrone Initiates Mobile Drone Operations Trailer to Boost Productivity and Scale Drone as a Service
Trailer is designed to support automated multi-drone spraying and seeding, with automated battery recharging, launch and landing platform, with future adaptations planned for surveying and inspections
Vancouver, British Columbia, (October 8, 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 its ZenaDrone subsidiary has begun building a mobile agricultural drone operations trailer and will begin testing it in the coming months. The trailer is designed to transport and automate precision agriculture Drone as a Service jobs including for drone swarm operations. It is being configured to work with the IQ Octo drone, to complete jobs with minimal human intervention, improving speed and job capacity, and will be adapted to work with other DaaS applications such as surveys and inspection jobs in the future. The IQ Octo is ZenaDrone’s medium-sized, eight-motor autonomous drone currently at the prototype testing stage, built for precision spraying and seeding. Battery powered, it is designed for roughly 20 to 25 minutes of flight per charge and a payload of up to 25 kilograms of liquid or seed, applying fertilizers, crop-protection products, and seed along programmed flight paths.
“Our customers want more acres covered, jobs completed faster, and lower service costs. Developing a mobile operations trailer to support multiple drones, with spraying, seeding, and spreading capabilities and automated battery recharging, is aimed squarely at those needs,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., ZenaTech CEO. “We are starting development and testing in precision agriculture, with the goal of extending this approach across our Drone as a Service applications. For ZenaTech’s DaaS business, the opportunity is to serve more customers with each crew and drone fleet, supporting stronger margins and a more scalable service business.”
The trailer is designed as a customizable mobile hub that transports drones and supports field operations, including battery charging, payload replenishment, and autonomous takeoff and landing. Built for compact and road-worthy field operations, it has a retractable top cover and panels for fast drone set up and launch directly from the trailer. It is built to support drone swarms of up to five aircrafts working across precision agriculture jobs, beginning with IQ Octo spraying, seeding, and spreading operations, and can later be adapted for surveying and inspection applications. The trailer is currently in the prototype build-and-test stage at the Company’s facility in Mesa, Arizona where it is expected to be produced.
A mobile operations trailer supporting four to five drones is designed to deliver faster job completion, less downtime, lower operating costs, and greater daily capacity. By bringing spraying, seeding, and spreading supplies directly to the job site with automated refilling, and by recharging batteries without manual intervention, the trailer is designed to keep fleets flying with fewer interruptions and less hands-on servicing. The goal is quicker turnaround and planned lower costs for customers, enabling DaaS operators to cover more acres, complete more jobs, and improve margins from the same fleet.
Drone as a Service (DaaS) is ZenaTech’s model for delivering drone-based automation of legacy or manual jobs, data, and analytics as a recurring service rather than selling drone hardware outright. It is designed to give customers across agriculture, land surveying and construction, industrial inspections and maintenance, power washing of buildings, and other industries access to automated drone capabilities without owning or operating a fleet, while building a scalable, recurring-revenue business for ZenaTech.
The Company will provide further updates as it reaches additional development and testing milestones for the mobile agricultural drone operations trailer.

It fits naturally alongside our drone services and enterprise software, and we see it as a promising new opportunity for ZenaTech.”
ZenaTech plans to launch Stacklens in three versions, each suited to a different field environment and use case.
Stacklens is also designed to connect with ZenaTech's broader drone and Drone as a Service ecosystem, giving field crews a natural extension of the Company's existing AI and drone technology for more efficient inspection or maintenance job completion and data capture.
The global smart glasses market is projected to reach approximately US$4.1 billion by 2030, according to MarketsandMarkets.
Pricing and subscription details have not yet been disclosed, and the Company is pursuing applicable safety certifications. ZenaTech will provide further updates as it reaches additional development, certification and pilot-program milestones for Stacklens.

Exhibit 99.5
ZenaTech Reports Over 27% Organic Growth Across Existing Drone as a Service Operations and Estimates Q3, 2026 Total Revenue in Range of C$13.4 Million to C$14.8 Million
Vancouver, British Columbia, (October 13, 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 organic revenue growth averaging 27.1% in 2026 across its DaaS operations. The metric measures organic revenue growth generated within the approximately 20 primarily U.S. DaaS locations added in 2025 and does not include acquisitions completed in 2026. Some of these individual DaaS locations generated organic growth of over 40% during the period.
ZenaTech also estimates that total revenue for the third quarter of 2026 will be between C$13.4 million and C$14.8 million (US$9.5 million to US$10.5 million), compared to reported second quarter revenue of C$9.3 million (approximately US$6.6 million). DaaS segment revenue was approximately 93% of total revenue in second quarter of 2026. These figures are preliminary and unaudited and final revenue may differ from estimated amounts.
“Over 27% organic growth across the locations we acquired in 2025 shows the Drone as a Service model working as designed: we acquire established survey and inspection businesses, introduce drones and AI into their workflow, and see the results in their revenue,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., ZenaTech CEO. “We are executing quickly, and each new location strengthens the AI autonomy platform we are building across the network. Drone-based land survey and inspection is a differentiated offering in a traditional industry; our marketing investments are building brand awareness and name recognition, and our acquisition strategy deliberately focuses on regions where geographic growth and economic development are driving construction and business growth, and with it the demand for DaaS. We believe this combination positions ZenaTech for sustained growth.”
For context, IBISWorld estimates the U.S. Surveying & Mapping Services industry has grown at a compound annual rate of 1.3% between 2021 and 2026. The Company’s 27.1% average organic growth is more than 20 times that industry growth rate.
Management attributes the organic growth to a combination of operational and commercial drivers. Operationally, ZenaTech integrates drones and AI into each location’s workflow, speeding up fieldwork and data delivery and automating more of the process, which allows locations to take on more work with their existing teams. It also trains existing land surveyors to become drone pilots, expanding capacity while lowering labor costs. Commercially, ZenaTech’s marketing investments are building name recognition for its DaaS brand and sales leads, and the Company is introducing packaged services tailored to fast-growing segments, including surveying for AI data center construction and services for large residential homebuilders.
ZenaTech’s Drone as a Service model is similar to Software as a Service (SaaS), but instead of delivering software through a subscription, it delivers turnkey drone-powered services and data on a recurring subscription or usage basis. The platform provides business and government customers with drone services using its vertically integrated ZenaDrone drones, for a host of surveying, inspections, maintenance, power washing, and precision agriculture solutions, eliminating the need for customers to own, operate and maintain commercial-grade drone fleets. Through the acquisition of established, under-digitized service businesses, ZenaTech is building a scalable global Drone as a Service network and AI autonomy platform, with recurring revenue and an existing customer base, while integrating advanced drone technologies to deliver greater speed, precision, safety, and data-driven insights. The Company continues to expand its geographic footprint, service offerings, and drone capabilities to drive long-term growth.
