BURU News & Events

NUBURU provided a strategic update on the continued expansion of its integrated Defense & Security platform through the advancement of its Lyocon laser roadmap and the ongoing progression of the proposed Tekne transaction and related Golden Power process in Italy. Following the strategic acquisition of Lyocon, NUBURU has reactivated and expanded its blue-laser business line while simultaneously positioning the technology for dual-use industrial and defense applications. The Company believes Lyocon's laser-source expertise and Tekne's military mobility and electronic-warfare integration capabilities represent highly complementary components within a scalable Defense & Security architecture. NUBURU's evolving platform strategy is designed to support future opportunities across: Counter-UAV and directed-energy defense systems; Tactical and vehicle-integrated laser applications; Mobile defense and special-purpose military platforms; Electronic-warfare integration systems; Multi-wavelength laser technologies; Mission-critical defense and operational-resilience applications. Earlier this year, Lyocon secured an initial deployment order for a portable directed-energy laser dazzler system for counter-drone applications from a tier-one government-owned defense electronics organization operating within a centralized procurement framework in a major Asia-Pacific defense market. NUBURU believes the deployment represented an important operational milestone validating the strategic relevance of directed-energy technologies within the Company's broader Defense & Security roadmap. NUBURU is actively advancing multiple laser-development and commercial initiatives intended to support both industrial and defense-oriented applications. Lyocon's Zephyrus product family remains central to its active blue-laser platform strategy, supporting applications requiring precision energy delivery, advanced processing performance and operational reliability across demanding environments. In parallel, the team is developing a next-generation blue-laser architecture designed to exceed 500W, intended to significantly expand the performance envelope and commercial applicability of its laser systems. Lyocon is also advancing development of a new BLUE + IR dual-wavelength laser family designed for applications where multi-wavelength flexibility may provide operational or mission advantages across advanced industrial processing, medical technologies, counter-UAV systems, directed-energy applications, and defense and security environments. In addition, NUBURU is pursuing a broader pathway toward tactical and vehicle-integrated directed-energy systems, including potential laser-arm and mobile-platform configurations designed for defense, tactical-response and special-mission applications. NUBURU, through Lyocon, has also been selected by a leading global industrial player in the semiconductor and hard-drive sector to supply a medium-power blue-laser system for surface-treatment applications. The Company believes this engagement reflects the advanced performance, process stability and operational reliability of the Lyocon blue-laser platform and further validates the quality of its technology in demanding dual-use industrial environments. NUBURU believes this achievement strengthens the Company's positioning as a credible technology provider for major industrial organizations where advanced manufacturing requirements and blue-laser technologies converge to meet demanding industry standards. As previously announced, NUBURU continues advancing the long-form documentation and regulatory pathway associated with its proposed strategic transaction involving Tekne. Following execution of the long-form agreements, NUBURU intends to submit the related Golden Power notification/application to the Italian Government in connection with the proposed increase of its ownership position in Tekne, consistent with applicable regulations governing strategic national-security and defense assets.

NUBURU announced a further acceleration of its joint venture with Maddox Defense, with the program now advancing into the production phase of its first Mobile Additive Manufacturing Container platform, designed for the production of drones, mission-critical pods, and related defense components. This milestone marks the transition from infrastructure activation and system integration into a funded prototype build phase, with secured initial capital and structured funding supporting progression toward prototype completion and near-term deployment readiness. The update builds on the Company's previously announced Phase I activation and ongoing U.S. execution activities in Houston, Texas. The Maddox JV program has received initial capital to support execution and has progressed into the next operational phase, including procurement, system integration, and container buildout activities. The program is funded for the current execution phase, with secured initial capital and structured funding supporting progression toward prototype completion, enabling: Assembly and validation of additive manufacturing systems; Integration of power, environmental, and digital production infrastructure; Completion of the containerized manufacturing unit; End-to-end operational testing and deployment readiness. The platform is engineered to support modular production of unmanned aerial systems, payload pods, and mission-critical components, enabling flexible deployment across multiple defense and security use cases. The program continues to target an approximately 6-9 month deployment timeline, positioning the Company for near-term demonstration and engagement with U.S. defense stakeholders

The company said, "NUBURU provides a corporate update to highlight that the Company is actively and successfully executing on and monetizing its business and growth strategy, which includes: initial revenue traction, supported by early billings, secured orders and commercial deployment; and increasing visibility on revenue growth and scaling from expanding and converting our attractive commercial pipeline into contracted revenue across multiple core business verticals within our integrated Defense and Security Platform. Management remains confident that this reflects a transition to repeatable commercial deployment and scalable revenue generation throughout 2026 and over the longer term and to create significant value for our shareholders and wider stakeholders...Through its participation in the Tekne network contract framework, NUBURU has generated approximately US$300,000 in billings, primarily through management and service-related activities. The Company is also participating in an active defense program in Ukraine in partnership with Engineering Bureau 'BERYL', where Phase 1 has been activated within a revenue range projected at between $5.75M to $11.5M, centered on the deployment of the GRAELION platform configured for military applications. NUBURU participates in the program through a structured economic and governance framework that includes pricing and margin participation, capital coordination, and potential integration of higher-margin non-kinetic and software subsystems. As a key strategic catalyst, NUBURU has signed a binding agreement to acquire a controlling 70% interest in Tekne, with submission for authorization under the Italian Golden Power regulatory framework expected by the end of April 2026. Tekne is targeting approximately $57.5M in revenue in 2026...Within its software business vertical, Orbit has generated approximately $80,000 in billings year-to-date, reflecting the typical seasonality of large enterprise and regulated-sector customers, where budget approvals and procurement cycles are concentrated in the second and third quarters. Consistent with this dynamic, Orbit is advancing approximately $3.9M in pipeline opportunities across enterprise and mission-critical environments, including approximately $790,000 linked to active requests for proposal. NUBURU currently holds approximately 22.7% equity interest in Orbit, with governance rights supporting operational alignment. Following recent shareholder approval authorizing share issuance, the Company expects to complete the acquisition of 100% of Orbit by this year-end...NUBURU expects to continue converting and expanding its attractive commercial pipeline into contracted revenue, advancing the Tekne transaction, scaling Lyocon deployments, expanding Orbit recurring revenues, and progressing toward achieving positive shareholders' equity in Q2 2026."
