## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Crown Reserve Acquisition Corp. I and Carvix, Inc. Announce Definitive Business Combination Agreement**

*Transaction Values Carvix at $1.0 Billion Implied Enterprise Value; Combined Company Expected to Trade on Nasdaq*

MIAMI, FL and LUTZ, FL, March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crown Reserve Acquisition Corp. I (Nasdaq: CRAC, CRACU, CRACW, CRACR) ("Crown Reserve" or "SPAC"), a special purpose acquisition company, and Carvix, Inc. ("Carvix" or the "Company"), a technology-driven automotive platform focused on acquiring, integrating, and scaling automotive-related businesses, today announced that they have entered into a definitive Business Combination Agreement (the "BCA"), pursuant to which a wholly owned subsidiary of Crown Reserve will merge with and into Carvix, with Carvix surviving as a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Crown Reserve (the "Business Combination"). Prior to closing, Crown Reserve will domesticate from the Cayman Islands to Delaware and continue as the publicly traded parent company. The combined company's shares are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

**Transaction Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Implied Valuation of $1.0 Billion:** The transaction values Carvix
at an implied enterprise value of $1.0 billion, including earnout consideration, with existing Carvix stockholders receiving Crown Reserve
common stock in an all-stock transaction based on a $10.00 per share reference value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Financing:** Crown Reserve has agreed to use reasonable best efforts
to raise a minimum of $80.0 million in PIPE financing and a committed equity line of credit of no less than $20.0 million. The transaction
requires a minimum of $10.0 million in cash at closing after redemptions, deferred underwriting fees, repayment of indebtedness and transaction
expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Earnout Consideration:** Certain Carvix stockholders will be eligible
to receive up to 50,000,100 additional shares of Crown Reserve common stock over a four-year earnout period beginning January 1, 2027,
tied to annual revenue and EBITDA targets. The earnout is split equally between a revenue component (up to 25,000,050 shares) and an EBITDA
component (up to 25,000,050 shares), with catch-up and true-up mechanics for each year of the earnout period. The Sponsor will also be
eligible to receive up to 3,000,000 additional shares (1,000,000 shares in each of the first three years of the earnout period) subject
to the same milestones.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Governance:** The post-closing board of directors will consist
of five members: four nominated by Carvix (including one independent director approved by the Sponsor) and one nominated by Crown Reserve's
Sponsor (who will be an independent director approved by Carvix). The two independent directors will be mutually agreed upon by the parties.
Carvix's existing management team will continue to lead the combined company following closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Lock-Up Agreements:** Each director and officer of Crown Reserve
immediately following closing will execute an eighteen-month lock-up. At closing, the Sponsor will execute a lock-up agreement expiring
on the earlier of six months following consummation of the PIPE financing or eighteen months following closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Tax-Free Reorganization:** The transaction is intended to qualify
as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 368(a)(1)(F) and 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

**Management Commentary**

"Carvix was built on the conviction that the automotive services industry is ready for a technology-led consolidator," said Ramin Farahmand, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Carvix. "Our platform combines disciplined acquisition strategy with data-driven operational execution across a fragmented market. Access to the public markets through this combination with Crown Reserve gives us the capital and the profile to accelerate that strategy at scale."

Eric Sherb, Managing Member of Crown Acquisition Sponsor LLC, added, "We conducted an extensive search before selecting Carvix as our partner. The Company's management team has built a differentiated platform with demonstrated unit economics in a large and underserved market. We are confident this combination will deliver long-term value for shareholders."

**Closing Conditions and Approvals**

The Business Combination is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Crown Reserve's shareholders and Carvix's stockholders, effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), Nasdaq listing approval, satisfaction of the minimum cash condition, and the absence of any material adverse effect. Key Carvix stockholders have entered into a Stockholder Support Agreement committing to vote in favor of the transaction. The BCA may be terminated by either party if the closing has not occurred by September 30, 2026.
