ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- XTI Aerospace, Inc. (NASDAQ: XTIA) ("XTI" or the "Company"), a pioneer in advanced aircraft design, today provided an update for its shareholders regarding its 2025 strategic initiatives, which includes the implementation of a 1-for-250 consolidation of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), as part of a broader strategy to strengthen its balance sheet and increase its stock price to not only regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement but also to position the Company for long-term growth and success.

XTI Aerospace believes it is entering a transformative phase in its development. With the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) formalization of the powered-lift category, the Company sees substantial opportunity to expand its leadership position within the VTOL industry. XTI views the recent announcement by the FAA regarding the powered-lift category as a clear sign that a new era of aviation is underway, and XTI is positioning itself to play an integral role in the market through strategic development advances.

During 2024 XTI has been able to make significant improvements to its balance sheet and cap table structure. As a result, with a more robust financial platform, XTI believes it will be well-equipped to raise capital, pursue strategic acquisitions, and continue to progress its efforts towards enhancing its leadership position in the VTOL and powered-lift markets. These efforts will support the Company's vision of becoming a global leader in aviation development by accelerating its technological and market footprint.

"We're excited to take this next step as we continue to execute on our strategy to become a leader in VTOL development within the powered lift category," said Scott Pomeroy, Chairman and CEO of XTI Aerospace. "The share consolidation is a necessary part of our plan to build a solid foundation that will support our growth initiatives, increase shareholder value, and enable us to capitalize on the tremendous potential of the aviation market transformation we believe is underway."

XTI Aerospace's long-term strategy includes an enhanced focus on the TriFan 600, its flagship product, while also seeking to expand its capabilities within the broader powered-lift category. The Company is building a comprehensive foundation for future growth and is excited about the significant opportunities ahead.

In connection with the consolidation of the Company's Common Stock, every two-hundred-fifty (250) shares of its outstanding Common Stock will automatically be combined into one (1) share of Common Stock. The Common Stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis with the new CUSIP number 98423K405 on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the current ticker symbol "XTIA" when the market opens on January 10, 2025. The share consolidation was approved by the Company's shareholders at the Company's 2024 Annual Meeting, held on December 27, 2024.

Any fractional shares resulting from the consolidation will be rounded up to the nearest whole share of Common Stock. The exercise prices and the number of shares issuable upon exercise, of the Company's outstanding stock options and warrants, will be adjusted in accordance with their respective terms. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock and the par value per share will remain unchanged. The share consolidation will affect all shareholders uniformly and will not affect any shareholder's ownership percentage of the Company's shares, with the exception of those holders of fractional shares.

Computershare Trust Company, N.A. ("Computershare"), the Company's transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the share consolidation. Computershare will provide shareholders of record with instructions for the exchange of their stock certificates. Shareholders holding their shares in book-entry form and/or owning shares via a broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the share consolidation, subject to their brokers' particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the share consolidation.
