Volato to Combine with M2i Global in a Strategic Transaction, Unlocking Value Through Industrial Scale and Platform Independence
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Volato Group, Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Volato') (NYSE American: SOAR), a technology-first private aviation company, and M2i Global, Inc. ('M2i Global') (OTCQB: MTWO), a developer of full-spectrum critical mineral supply chains, today announced the signing of a non-binding term sheet under which M2i Global will be acquired by Volato in a transaction that positions the combined company for scale, strategic capital access, and long-term growth. This transaction brings together two distinct but complementary platforms: – M2i Global, with a clear path to federal partnerships, high-value offtake agreements, and battery metals leadership; and – Volato's proprietary aviation software, Vaunt experiential travel platform, and investment vehicles, which will be retained as a separate operating unit led by current Volato CEO and Co-Founder Matt Liotta. Upon completion of the acquisition, M2i Global will receive common shares of Volato stock such that M2i Global will own approximately 90% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Volato on an as-converted and fully diluted basis (excluding any outstanding public warrants for Volato common stock) and the current shareholders of Volato will own approximately 10% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Volato common stock on an as-converted and fully diluted basis (excluding any outstanding public warrants for Volato's common stock).

'This transaction re-rates our value and gives our shareholders exposure to a macroeconomic growth engine in critical minerals, while keeping our aviation platforms intact and scaling under experienced leadership. It's not an exit—it's a rebirth.' The combined company will pursue listing on the NYSE American and is expected to consolidate key business lines while preserving management continuity and operational momentum. M2i Global brings high-value relationships, including: An exclusive offtake agreement with NT Minerals valued at approximately $850 million; Partnerships across battery recycling, cathode material manufacturing, and brownfield mining; and A seasoned leadership and advisory team with proven public market and government execution. 'Volato's aviation software and financial discipline impressed us,' said Maj. Gen. (Ret) Alberto Rosende, CEO of M2i Global. 'Their platforms, especially Vaunt and Mission Control, are assets we intend to nurture, and Matt will continue to lead their growth. Together, we create a dual-engine company: one focused on national resilience, the other on next-generation travel and aviation software.' This transaction comes as the need for secure U.S. access to critical minerals has moved to the forefront of national policy, with recent executive orders highlighting urgency around antimony, graphite, and rare earth metals. SOAR shareholders are now positioned to benefit from two growth stories: A high-upside industrial platform aligned with federal initiatives A proven aviation technology business with growing traction and independent funding The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of the transaction by the shareholders of both Volato and M2i Global.

Volato Projects Full-Year Profitability on Strength of Q1 Execution and Expanding Revenue Streams
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Volato Group, Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Volato') (NYSE American: SOAR), a technology-first private aviation company, today announced it expects to achieve second quarter and full-year profitability in 2025, driven by continued financial execution and momentum across its core platform businesses. In the first quarter, the Company reported $25.5 million in revenue, $500 thousand in net income from continuing operations, and a $23.4 million reduction in total liabilities—including a substantial reduction in senior lender debt. Based on current assumptions, the Company expects Q2 revenue between $24 million and $26 million, and net income of $2 million to $3 million. A key contributor to the Company's improved financial performance was the strength of its aircraft-trading program, which delivered $25 million in Q1 revenue. The program is part of a broader strategy to monetize high-demand aircraft and, over time, place them with third-party charter operators in capital-efficient structures designed to support recurring income. 'We set clear goals to reduce debt, generate cash, and move the business toward profitability—and that's exactly what we've done,' said Matt Liotta, CEO and Co-Founder of Volato. 'Now we're continuing that strategy into Q2 with the same focus and pace. The platform is working, and we're putting it to work in smart, scalable ways.' 'We continue to make strides in strengthening our financial position in the second quarter,' said Mark Heinen, Chief Financial Officer of Volato. 'We've already reduced liabilities by $13 million so far this quarter and remain on track to hit our $15 million Q2 target. We've also reduced working capital tied up in aircraft inventory from $12 million at the end of Q1 to just $3 million today.' Volato's platform-based businesses also played a central role in Q1 momentum. Vaunt, the Company's fast-scaling experiential travel platform, continued to grow, and now supports over 110 aircraft through an expanding network of premium operators. Recent product enhancements, including the ability to book commercial flights and hotels alongside private flights—position Vaunt as a category-defining tool for spontaneous, story-worthy travel. In parallel, Volato continues to pursue discounted settlements as a necessary part of its plan to support lender recoveries and strengthen our financial position and is evaluating a targeted equity raise to support near-term execution while preserving flexibility and limiting dilution. With revenue contributions from aircraft transactions, aviation software, travel subscriptions, operator partnerships, and its new aircraft monetization initiative involving strategic placements with charter operators, Volato is building a multi-channel business model with a clear focus on scalability and long-term shareholder value. About Volato Volato is a private aviation company advancing the industry with innovative solutions in aviation software and on-demand flight access. Volato's proprietary Mission Control software drives efficiency across operations and supports operators in managing fractional ownership, charter, and other services. Volato's Vaunt platform connects travelers with available private flights, offering a flexible option for on-demand travel.
