Derived from first quarter results of CAD $8.3M multiplied by four, it reflects completed DaaS acquisitions contribution and continued drone workflow integration across the company’s portfolio (Vancouver, British Columbia– June 30, 2025) — ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology company specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, today reports that its 2026 annualized revenue run rate is approximately CAD $33 million. This is based on a simple annualized calculation of first quarter 2026 results (the three months ended March 31, 2026) of CAD $8.3 million multiplied by four. See what 10M+ investors are talking about. Get the Stocktwits Daily Rip for what retail is watching right now, free to your inbox “Our first quarter revenue reflects the strength of our DaaS model and the contribution of the acquisitions we have been in the process of integrating over the past year,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., ZenaTech CEO. “Annualizing the quarter puts us at roughly CAD $33 million, and we view that as a baseline rather than a ceiling. We have completed several acquisitions during the period, which will contribute a full twelve months of revenue for the first time later in the year. Our DaaS acquisition pipeline remains active, and our recently disclosed Partnership Acquisition Program is progressing with the kind of founder-led, profitable companies we want on the platform.” The annualized revenue run rate is derived by multiplying first-quarter 2026 revenue by four, and is for illustrative purposes only. It is intended to demonstrate the current revenue scale of the Company’s operations following the completion of its DaaS acquisitions. It should not be interpreted as management’s financial guidance or forecast for fiscal 2026. ZenaTech’s primary revenue engine remains the DaaS segment, through which the Company acquires operationally mature but under-digitized service businesses and integrates its ZenaDrone proprietary drone platforms and AI analytics into their workflows. The Company continues to target land survey and geospatial mapping, infrastructure and asset inspection, and exterior building cleaning businesses — sectors where drone-enabled service delivery can provide an immediate productivity advantage. As drone utilization deepens within each portfolio company, ZenaTech anticipates revenue expansion through capacity growth, contract upsell, new drone-derived data product lines, and improved operating margins. Several acquisitions completed during fiscal 2025 and the first half of fiscal 2026 contributed only partial-year revenue in the periods they closed. These businesses are expected to contribute a full twelve-month revenue run rate for the first time during the balance of fiscal 2026. In May 2026, ZenaTech announced a Partnership Acquisition Program, through which the Company is pursuing acquisitions of established, founder-led, profitable businesses in four core verticals: defense technology and unmanned systems, enterprise SaaS and productivity software, AI infrastructure and applied AI, and specialty manufacturing and supply chain. The Company has entered into non-binding letters of intent and term sheets as discussions progress toward potential definitive agreements. About ZenaTechZenaTech, Inc.
