EDGEWOOD, N.Y. – August 13, 2026 – CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (“CPI Aero” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: CVU) today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, demonstrating substantial year-over-year improvement and meaningful margin expansion. The Company’s results benefited from a more favorable product mix, strengthened operational execution, and disciplined cost management across key Aerospace & Defense programs.

“Our six months performance showcases the results of a focused growth strategy and disciplined execution, delivering year-over-year gains across every major metric,” said Dorith Hakim, Chief Executive Officer of CVU. “Demand across our core defense platforms remains strong, and the combination of a more favorable product mix and operational efficiencies drove a $6.0 million increase in gross profit and a $4.6 million increase in net income. Adjusted EBITDA of $3.5 million represents a clear inflection point for the business, even when normalizing for the A-10 program impact.”

Added Ms. Hakim, “With a $533 million backlog, supported by the recent $62 million in contract awards this year for new generation products, and the growing confidence of our customers, we remain focused on disciplined program execution, quality, and delivery performance—pillars that support both near-term profitability and long-term value creation. We have entered the second half of 2026 with strong visibility and confidence, well-aligned to deliver continued financial improvement and sustained momentum into 2027.”
