 **Item 1.01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement**

On January 19, 2026, QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (the "***Company***") entered into a Distribution Agreement (the "***Distribution Agreement***") with Al Naghi Medical Co., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of United Arab Emirates ("***NMC***"). Under the terms of the Distribution Agreement, the Company shall authorize and grant to NMC the exclusive right to market, advertise and sell the QT Breast Acoustic CT Scanners (the "***Scanners***") and the QTI Cloud Platform SaaS subscriptions (together with the Scanners, the "***Approved Products***") in United Arab Emirates (the "***Territory***").

The term of the Distribution Agreement commenced on January 19, 2026, and shall remain in force until January 19, 2029 (the "***Initial Term***"). If NMC has met the Minimum Purchase Requirements (as defined below) during the Initial Term, the Distribution Agreement shall automatically be extended for an additional one-year term. NMC agrees to meet or exceed the purchase requirements and/or revenue goals for the Approved Products set forth in the Distribution Agreement (the "***Minimum Purchase Requirements***") during the Initial Term. In the event NMC fails to meet these Minimum Purchase Requirements in any year during the Initial Term, the Company may, at its sole option, (a) terminate NMC's exclusive distributorship rights for the sale and promotion of the Approved Products granted under this Agreement and appoint other distributors for the Approved Products in the Territory, or (b) terminate the Distribution Agreement. Should the Company elect to so terminate NMC's exclusive distributorship in the Territory, the Company may continue to sell the Approved Products to NMC for NMC to distribute on a non-exclusive basis in the Territory in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Distribution Agreement, and NMC's ongoing obligations with regard to its Minimum Purchase Requirements for the Approved Products shall terminate. Should the Company be unable to furnish NMC with sufficient quantities of the Approved Products, as may be requested by NMC in its Release Orders (as defined below) submitted to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement, then NMC's Minimum Purchase Requirement shall be reduced by the quantity of Approved Products that the Company is unable to deliver as requested.

NMC shall secure all required governmental approvals, permits, licenses, customs clearances, and authorizations required for shipment to and use of the Scanners in the Territory. The Company shall provide training and professional services to NMC during the term of the Distribution Agreement and shall retain all intellectual property rights.

At any time during the term of the Distribution Agreement, NMC may submit to the Company a blanket purchase order (the "***Blanket Purchase Order***") with any client's requirements for the Approved Products for review and written acceptance by the Company. Thereafter, over the course of the client's project, NMC may submit to the Company one or more release orders for Approved Products to meet the client's requirements under the applicable Blanket Purchase Order (each, a "***Release Order***"). If the Company reasonably anticipates being able to meet such requirements, such order shall be deemed approved so long as it conforms to the terms of the Distribution Agreement. Any terms and conditions in an order that are inconsistent with or in addition to the terms and conditions of the Distribution Agreement shall be rejected and considered null and of no effect, unless expressly agreed to by the Company in writing. Upon receipt and acceptance of each order, the Company will provide the minimum number of days to ship the Scanners and then deliver the Scanners to the destinations designated in such orders. NMC will bear all risks of loss or damage to the Scanners upon delivery to the designated destinations.

The Company will deliver the Approved Products to NMC's destination(s) designated in the applicable Release Order. The Company may make partial shipments, to be separately invoiced and paid for when due and NMC may not reject partial shipments. Any delay in delivery of any installment of Approved Products will not relieve NMC of its obligation to accept the remaining deliveries. NMC will be solely responsible for all shipping, packaging, duties, fees, brokerage, insurance and customs clearance and export documentation, as applicable, and for payment of all costs and charges related thereto, except that the Company will arrange the initial packaging and shipping.

All quotations, estimates, invoices and payments for Approved Products that NMC purchases from the Company shall be in United States Dollars. Except as NMC and the Company may otherwise mutually agree in writing,

------

provided that NMC maintains a credit limit with the Company that has been approved in writing by the Company, NMC shall pay the Company fifty percent (50%) of the total price of the Release Order upon order placement and fifty percent (50%) within 45 days from the date of shipping of the Approved Products to NMC's designated location(s), or in any of the agreed upon payment terms. For certain orders as agreed upon by the Parties, NMC shall deliver an irrevocable letter of credit to the Company to secure payment, with such irrevocable letter of credit for any particular order to be based upon the size of the order. NMC will pay all sales, use and other taxes due on sales of Approved Products in United Arab Emirates. NMC is not responsible for any taxes outside United Arab Emirates.

The Company has provided for a limited warranty of at least one year, and up to five years, depending on the purchase price paid by a client of NMC for an Approved Product.

During its validity period, the Distribution Agreement can be terminated only with the approval of both parties and, upon termination, NMC shall be permitted to sell any Scanners that it holds in accordance with the Distribution Agreement.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Distribution Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

## Exhibit 99.1

![image_0.jpg](image_0.jpg)

**QT Imaging Announces Exclusive Distribution Agreement with Al Naghi Medical for the United Arab Emirates Territory** 

*Agreement comes on the heels of Company inking an exclusive distribution agreement with Gulf Medical for Saudi Arabia*

*Creates an additional $24M revenue runway to penetrate the second largest healthcare market in the Middle East* 

*Shipments of scanners to commence in Q2'26*

**Novato, Calif.** – January 20, 2026 – QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: QTIH) ("QT Imaging" or the "Company"), a medical device company engaged in research, development, and commercialization of innovative body imaging systems, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an exclusive distribution agreement (the "Agreement") for its QTI Breast Acoustic CT™ scanners and QTI Cloud Platform in the United Arab Emirates ("UAE") territory with Al Naghi Medical Co. ("NMC"), a leading distributor of medical devices.

The U.S. FDA-cleared QTI Breast Acoustic CT scanner is the first non-invasive breast imaging technology that provides a true 3D image of the breast anatomy without compression, contrast administration, or harmful ionizing radiation. The Company also recently unveiled its ongoing strategic initiative to build the QTI Cloud Platform, designed to transform breast health through biomarkers and imaging intelligence. Utilizing a tiered Software as a Service ("SaaS") delivery model, the QTI Cloud SaaS Platform will provide subscribers with access to a large and growing portfolio of tools that automate findings classification, deliver consistent decision support, and ensure that future AI/ML advancements, such as automated lesion segmentation, volumetric tissue characterization, and computer-aided diagnosis and reporting, can be securely delivered to all securely connected QTI Breast Acoustic CT systems without requiring on-premise updates.

The Agreement provides for committed, minimum order quantities of 7 scanners in 2026 (starting in the second quarter), increasing to 16 scanners in 2027 and 20 scanners in 2028, for a total minimum of 43 scanners and revenue of more than $24 million.

The prevalence of breast cancer in the UAE has increased dramatically throughout the decades. According to national data cited by Elobaid et al., breast cancer accounts for 25% of cancer cases diagnosed in the UAE, and 43% of cancer cases diagnosed in women in the UAE.<sup>1</sup> Of note, according to data cited by Al-Shamsi and Alrawi (2018), the median age of breast cancer diagnosis in the UAE is approximately 48–49 years, which previous studies cited by Rabbani et al. indicate is nearly a decade younger than in Western countries.<sup>2,3</sup> As genetic predisposition, particularly BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, has been identified as an important contributor to breast cancer risk in the UAE<sup>4</sup>, QT Imaging breast imaging technology providing a solution for younger women is well suited for this market.

"We are excited to gain access to this significant market by partnering for the distribution of our technology with NMC, one of the leading medical device distributors in the UAE," said QT Imaging's Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Raluca Dinu. "By making breast imaging accurate, comfortable, and stress-free, we believe that our QTI Breast Acoustic CT™ scanner can help change the current breast cancer screening paradigm in the UAE, promoting earlier detection and improved prognoses."
