flyExclusive Reaffirms 2026 Strategic Priorities and Updates on Jet.AI Merger
flyExclusive (FLYX) reaffirmed its strategic priorities for 2026 and provided an update on the pending merger with Jet.AI Inc. (JTAI). "As we move through 2026, our focus remains unchanged: improving profitability, strengthening our balance sheet, increasing aircraft utilization, and creating long-term value for shareholders," said Jim Segrave, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of flyExclusive. "The pending Jet.AI transaction represents one component of that broader strategy." The company continues to focus on operational execution across its vertically integrated aviation platform, including charter operations, maintenance, repair and overhaul services, aircraft sales, and technology-enabled offerings. The company also flew over 7,000 hours last month, it added. As of the reconvened Special Meeting of Jet.AI stockholders held today, 688,285 shares, representing approximately 48.4% of Jet.AI's total outstanding shares, have voted in favor of the merger. Approximately 99% of the votes casts have voted in favor of the transaction. The transaction requires approval from holders of a majority of all outstanding shares, or approximately 710,861 shares. As a result, approximately only 22,500 additional affirmative votes are required to obtain stockholder approval. Considering 99% of all the votes that have been cast are in favor of the merger we are confident the transaction will be approved in the coming week with less than 2% of the outstanding shares voting. The Special Meeting was adjourned and will reconvene on July 2, 2026, to allow the additional time for remaining stockholders to submit their votes. Both Institutional Shareholder Services and Glass, Lewis & Co. have recommended that Jet.AI stockholders vote FOR the transaction.
