LAS VEGAS, NV, June 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jet.AI Inc. (NASDAQ: JTAI) (the "Company" or "Jet.AI"), an emerging provider of high-performance GPU infrastructure and AI cloud services, today announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) has authorized a formal review of strategic alternatives with respect to the Company's equity interest in Space Exploration Technologies Corp. ("SpaceX").

The Board's review will consider a full range of potential alternatives intended to maximize shareholder value, which may include, without limitation: the acquisition of additional equity in SpaceX; the retention of the Company's existing position; distribution of the Company’s SpaceX interest to shareholders in the form of a spin-off or special dividend; sale or transfer of all or a portion of the interest; other alternatives as the Board may determine to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

As previously announced in April 2026, Jet.AI made a $5.0 million strategic investment intended to provide an economic interest in SpaceX and its related subsidiaries, including but not limited to x.AI / Grok, Starlink, and X (formerly Twitter). The Company believes this investment carries strategic relevance in light of recent developments in connection with SpaceX’s widely reported initial public offering. The approximate valuation of $1.75 trillion would rank the highly anticipated SpaceX IPO as the largest in history. Jet.AI and the Board believe it is appropriate to evaluate all available alternatives considering the potential value represented by the Company’s SpaceX economic interest.

The Board has engaged independent financial and legal advisors to assist in the review process. The Company does not intend to disclose further developments with respect to this process unless and until the Board has approved a specific course of action or otherwise determines that disclosure is required. No decisions have been made at this time, and there can be no assurance that the review will result in any transaction or other strategic action, or as to the timing or terms of any such outcome.
