The Board’s decision reflects the Company’s view that SpaceX’s low-earth orbit communications infrastructure, space-based sensing capabilities, and expanding U.S. defense portfolio are directly complementary to Quantum Cyber’s multi-domain autonomous defense platform. If acquired, the stake would be carried on the Company’s balance sheet as a strategic technology holding, direct asset-layer exposure to one of the most consequential defense and aerospace enterprises in the world.

This action is consistent with Quantum Cyber’s established approach to strategic collaboration: where the Company identifies a technology platform aligned with its defense mission, it pursues the deepest available form of that alignment, whether through licensing, partnership, or direct equity participation.

This announcement follows the Company’s execution on June 11, 2026 of a definitive Intellectual Property License Agreement with Project LightShift, Inc., through which Quantum Cyber secured exclusive worldwide rights to patent-protected quantum photonic array technology for defense drone applications, converting the quantum layer of its System-of-Systems platform from strategic positioning into a signed, definitive intellectual property transaction.

"SpaceX is central to the future of defense technology," said David Lazar, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Cyber. "We are building a platform that operates across air, land, and sea, and we intend to be positioned at the intersection of autonomous defense and the infrastructure powering the next generation of it".
