JFB Construction Holdings Class A ( (JFB) ) has issued an announcement.
On February 13, 2026, JFB Construction Holdings entered into private securities purchase agreements with institutional investors to sell 802,000 common shares at $12.50 each, raising approximately $10 million in gross proceeds and about $9.2 million net, partly earmarked for an investment in XTEND Reality Expansion Ltd. The unregistered offering, arranged by Dominari Securities, relied on a private placement exemption and signaled a capital raise ahead of a strategic shift toward defense-focused autonomous systems.
On February 17, 2026, JFB announced a definitive all-stock agreement to combine with XTEND in a transaction implying a $1.5 billion valuation based on the private placement pricing, creating Nasdaq-listed XTEND AI Robotics, Inc. and leaving XTEND shareholders with about 70% and JFB shareholders about 30% of the new company; the merger, backed by several strategic investors, aims to build a U.S.-based leader in AI-driven autonomous defense and security robotics, expand NDAA-compliant production in Tampa, and reposition JFB from pure construction into advanced defense technology, with closing targeted for mid-2026 pending conditions.
