    Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     

    On February 13, 2026, JFB Construction Holdings (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreements”) with certain institutional accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors in a private placement an aggregate of 802,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Placement Shares”) at a price of $12.50 per share (the “Private Placement”).

     

    The Private Placement is expected to close on February 17, 2026 and Company expects to receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $10.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses, and aggregate net proceeds of approximately $9.2 million, after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Dominari Securities LLC acted as placement agent for the Private Placement.

     

    A portion of the proceeds of the Private Placement, will be invested in XTEND Reality Expansion Ltd. (“Xtend”) in connection with the transactions described in Item 8.01 below through a Simple Agreement for Future Equity.

     

    The Company has granted the Investors indemnification rights with respect to its representations, warranties, covenants and agreements under the Securities Purchase Agreements.

     

    The foregoing description of the Securities Purchase Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Securities Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

     

    The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Securities Purchase Agreements were made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto and the placement agents expressly named as third-party beneficiaries thereto and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Accordingly, the form of Securities Purchase Agreement is incorporated herein by reference only to provide investors with information regarding the terms thereof and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     

    Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

     

    The information contained above in Item 1.01 with respect to the Private Placement is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. Based in part upon the representations of the Investors in the Securities Purchase Agreements, the offering and sale of the Placement Shares was made in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act, which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.

      

    Item 8.01. Other Events.

     

    On February 17, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had entered into a definitive agreement with Xtend pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions to closing, the Company and Xtend will combine in an all-stock transaction to form a U.S.-based public company Xtend AI Robotics, Inc., focused on delivering next-generation autonomous systems for defense, public safety, and private security applications built on Xtend’s battle proven AI XTEND Operating System.

     

    A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

In addition, a number of important factors could cause JFB’s, Xtend’s or NewCo’s actual future results and other future circumstances to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements, including but not limited to those important factors that will be discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by JFB and NewCo, as any such factors may be updated from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including without limitation Xtend’s investor relations site at https://www.xtend.me/newsroom and JFB’s investor relations site at https://investors.jfbconstruction.net/.
