**Elite Express Holding Inc. Reports First Quarter 2026 Results**

LAGUNA HILLS, Calif., April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Elite Express Holding Inc. ("ETS" or the "Company") (Nasdaq CM: ETS), a California-based provider of last-mile delivery services, today reported results for the quarter ended February 28, 2026.

For the quarter ended February 28, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $805,298, representing a 16.3% increase compared with the same period in 2025. The Company reported a net loss of $110,104, representing a 46.3% improvement compared with the net loss of $204,999 for the same period in 2025.

Yidan Chen, ETS's CEO commented, "Our first quarter of fiscal 2026 reflects continued operational momentum following our transition to a public company. We achieved 16.3% year-over-year revenue growth while significantly reducing our net loss by 46.3%, demonstrating improved operating efficiency.

"We benefited from stronger delivery volumes, optimized route management, fleet utilization, and labor efficiency. Supported by resilient e-commerce demand, we believe ETS is well positioned to strengthen financial performance and deliver long-term shareholder value.

**First Quarter 2026 Financial Results**

For the three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $805,298, representing an increase of $113,155, or 16.3%, compared with $692,143 for the three months ended February 28, 2025. Activity-based revenue accounted for $621,336, or 77.1% of total revenue, during the three months ended February 28, 2026, compared with $538,851, or 77.9% of total revenue, for the same period in the prior year. Fixed revenue, including weekly service charges and branding-related revenue, increased from $152,794 for the three months ended February 28, 2025 to $159,607 for the three months ended February 28, 2026. This increase primarily reflected our continued emphasis on operational throughput under the FedEx ISP structure. Other Pickup and Delivery revenue increased from $498 for the three months ended February 28, 2025 to $24,355 for the three months ended February 28, 2026, representing an increase of $23,857, or 4,789.2%. The increase was primarily attributable to improved operational performance during the quarter, which resulted in the Company receiving a one-time performance-based bonus from FedEx.

The Company also reported cost of revenue of $647,933 for the three months ended February 28, 2026, compared with $724,550 for the three months ended February 28, 2025, representing a decrease of $76,617, or 10.6%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower vehicle repair and maintenance costs and reduced depreciation expense as certain fleet assets reached the end of their depreciation schedules.

For the three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company reported gross profit of $157,365, compared with a gross loss of $32,407 for the three months ended February 28, 2025, representing an improvement of $189,772. Gross margin improved to 19.4% for the three months ended February 28, 2026, compared with negative 4.7% in the prior-year period. The improvement was primarily attributable to lower vehicle repair and maintenance expenses and reduced depreciation expense as certain fleet assets became fully depreciated during the period.

General and administrative expenses for the Company increased by $180,987, or 63.8%, to $464,606 for the three months ended February 28, 2026, from $283,619 for the three months ended February 28, 2025. The increase was mainly due to (i) $49,838 in legal and accounting fees, primarily related to audit services, financial reporting, and SEC and regulatory compliance related to our transition to a public company; (ii) $82,851 in payroll expenses associated with personnel supporting corporate governance, internal controls, and administrative operations that were not incurred in the comparable Predecessor period; and (iii) a $48,298 increase in other expenses.

During the three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company's loans receivable portfolio, which was originated during fiscal 2025, generated interest income of $198,737. The loans were extended to unrelated third-party business partners to provide short-term funding support for new venture testing, while enabling the Company to optimize returns on temporarily unallocated IPO proceeds prior to deployment into operating investments. Each loan bears interest at an annual rate of 8% and is scheduled to mature in May 2026, reflecting the agreed extension of the original terms. During the three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company received principal repayments totaling $50,000, and subsequent to the quarter, additional principal repayments of $100,000 were collected. All loans remain secured by irrevocable personal unlimited joint and several liability guarantees provided by the shareholders or chief executive officers of the respective borrowers, and the Company has no related-party relationships with the borrowers.

The Company reported a net loss of $110,104 for the three months ended February 28, 2026, compared with a net loss of $204,999 for the same period of 2025, representing an improvement of $94,895, or 46.3%. The improvement was primarily attributable to revenue growth, improved gross profitability driven by lower vehicle repair and maintenance costs and reduced depreciation expense, and interest income earned on outstanding loans receivable, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses associated with public company operations.
