## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Z Squared, Inc. Outlines Phase 1 Plan to Reach 100 MW of AI-Ready Infrastructure for Inference Workloads**

**Ft. Lauderdale — May 19, 2026 —** Z Squared, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZSQR) (the "Company"), a digital infrastructure company expanding into AI infrastructure for inference workloads, today announced the Phase 1 destination of its strategy which includes a goal of reaching 100 megawatts (MW) of AI-ready capacity available for customer contracts, across multiple U.S. sites over the next 18 months.

The 100 MW objective will be pursued through Z Squared's acquire-and-convert engine, sourcing operating sites where power is already flowing, structuring shareholder-aligned acquisitions and/or joint ventures, and converting those sites to AI-ready capacity on a truncated timeline relative to current market standard of, three-to-five-years for a greenfield development.

Z Squared is operating from a virtually debt-free balance sheet following its April 2026 listing on the Nasdaq Global Market.

The Company is actively evaluating a pipeline of additional acquisition targets consistent with its acquire-and-convert strategy. Each target is assessed on the same criteria applied to Skycore: energized, grid-connected sites where conversion to AI-ready inference capacity can be executed without the multi-year delays associated with greenfield development. As with any acquisition pipeline, there can be no assurance that additional transactions will be completed on acceptable terms or at all.

"Power is the gating input for AI infrastructure, and time-to-power is what separates the operators who can serve this market from the ones who cannot," said David Halabu, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Z Squared. "Our engine is straightforward: acquire operating sites where power is already flowing, structure each deal in alignment with shareholders' interests, and convert those sites to AI-ready capacity on the timeline customers actually need. That is what Z Squared does, and we are building the pipeline to do it at scale."

"What makes this strategy executable is operational discipline," said Michelle Burke, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Z Squared. "Skycore closes, we convert. The next site closes, we convert. Conversion capital is staged site by site, milestone by milestone, against customer contracts and operational readiness, not ahead of them. That discipline is how we move through a pipeline of acquisitions without overextending the balance sheet or sacrificing execution quality."

**Operating Principles**

Z Squared's strategy is built on three principles:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Lead with power.** Start where power is already flowing. Time-to-power is the underlying advantage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Build for inference**. The workload being built for is production inference, the AI workload that powers chat sessions, copilots,
recommendations, and customer-service interactions at scale — not foundation-model training.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Scale with discipline**. Shareholder-aligned deal structures tie sellers to Z Squared's long-term success. Conversion capital
is staged site by site, against signed contracts and operational readiness.

AI workloads run on electricity at industrial scale, and grid interconnection queues for new data center sites have stretched to multiple years in most U.S. regions. A new site applying for power today may not see commercial capacity for up to three to five years. At the same time, some NeoCloud operators racing to deploy AI compute are turning customers away because they cannot bring infrastructure online fast enough.

The intended customers for Z Squared's AI-ready capacity are NeoCloud operators and the next wave of AI infrastructure operators deploying production AI compute at scale, specialized cloud operators built for AI workloads. Under the model, the customer brings the compute hardware, and Z Squared will have the ability to deliver the other material pieces: power, cooling, density, fiber, security, and operations.

**About Z Squared**

Z Squared is a computing infrastructure company operating advanced computing equipment strategically distributed across North Carolina, South Carolina, and Iowa. Z Squared's distributed, facility agnostic infrastructure is purpose built for operational resilience and rapid scalability. The Company's current operations include crypto mining, which provides a natural foundation for the Company's newer verticals in power generation, data center development, and high-performance compute hosting. The Company manages and optimizes a substantial fleet of specialized computing hardware, supported by dynamic power management strategies, real time analytics dashboards, and a comprehensive in house repair and lifecycle management program designed to maximize hardware efficiency and reduce capital waste.

The Company's infrastructure avoids over reliance on any single hosting provider and supports agile redeployment of equipment based on shifting power costs, infrastructure readiness, and uptime performance. Z Squared's operational model emphasizes efficiency, discipline, and precision execution, grounded in real time analytics integrated through centralized dashboards that aggregate data from facilities, hardware, and internal systems.

The Company's power strategy is designed to respond flexibly to real time grid conditions, including curtailment schedules and seasonal electricity rate fluctuations. By adapting energy consumption in response to pricing signals, Z Squared aims to lower its cost per kilowatt hour while preserving uptime and maximizing operational efficiency. Z Squared's distributed, facility agnostic structure reduces exposure to localized disruptions such as regulatory shifts or grid instability, and supports rapid scalability into new geographies and emerging computing workloads.

Z Squared recently entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire Skycore Digital, potentially adding 24 MW of energized AI-ready infrastructure in North Carolina with an expansion path to 42 MW.

The Company is led by an experienced team with deep expertise in large scale computing operations, infrastructure optimization, and power management. For more information, please visit www.zsquaredinc.com.
