Jet.AI Inc. shares surged 31.73% as the stock crossed above its 5-day SMA, reflecting positive investor sentiment following the announcement of executive salary agreements.
The company disclosed that Executive Chairman Michael Winston's base salary will rise to $425,000, while interim CFO George Murnane will earn $300,000, effective January 1. Additionally, the new agreements include change-of-control protections linked to a proposed merger with flyExclusive, providing each executive with $1.5 million cash bonuses if the deal closes. This strategic move aims to enhance executive stability and reflects Jet.AI's commitment to its leadership team. Furthermore, Jet.AI's recent joint venture with Choo Choo Express LLC to develop a significant data center in Nevada, valued at approximately $500 million, marks a pivotal shift towards AI infrastructure.
Despite the stock's impressive rise, it remains near its 52-week low, indicating potential volatility ahead. Investors are advised to monitor the situation closely as the company navigates these developments.

Reason
Maxim analyst Allen Klee lowered the firm's price target on Jet.AI to $11 from $20 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after its Q2. The company is on track to selling off its aircraft capital intensive businesses and shifting the business model to investing in data center infrastructure and projects, so current results are not meaningful, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The market is discounting the valuation due to the early-stage of the transition, though as Jet.AI meets various milestones, investor confidence should build and the shares should get re-rated, especially if a a hyperscaler is signed up as a long-term tenant, the firm added.
