~ Shares to Commence Trading on the Nasdaq GlobalMarket Under Ticker Symbol “ZSQR” Monday April 27, 2026 ~

Fort Lauderdale, FL., April 24, 2026 Z Squared, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZSQR) (“Z Squared” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated computing infrastructure company, today announced the completion of its business combination with Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. (“Coeptis”).

The closing follows the satisfaction of all conditions, including SEC effectiveness of the Form S-4 registration statement and the receipt of approval from Coeptis’ stockholders. In connection with the consummation of the business combination, Z Squared Opco Inc. (formerly Z Squared, Inc.) has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Prior to the consummation of the business combination Coeptis declared and effected a pro rata distribution to Coeptis’s record date stockholders of Coeptis’s ownership interest in its subsidiary that held a portion of Coeptis’s pre-business combination biopharmaceutical business.

In connection with the business combination, the former stockholders of Z Squared Opco Inc. (“Z Squared Opco”) exchanged their shares of Z Squared Opco common stock for shares of common stock of the Company. Following the business combination, the Company has approximately 51.5 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding, with the former stockholders of Z Squared Opco now owning approximately 85% of the Company, and the existing stockholders of the Company owning approximately 15% of the Company.

Michelle Burke, Chief Operating Officer commented, “We have built a vertically integrated computing infrastructure platform across three states, supported by dynamic power management, real time analytics, and a comprehensive hardware lifecycle program. Z Squared is well positioned to deliver consistent results and to grow into new geographies and workloads. We could not be more excited about what lies ahead. The market timing is exceptional, and we believe the best is yet to come.”
