Guardforce AI Announces Share Repurchase Program

NEW YORK, NY,, Feb. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Guardforce AI Co., Limited (“Guardforce AI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GFAI, GFAIW), an AI-driven technology company providing Agentic AI smart solutions in automation, robotics, and secured logistics, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a Share Repurchase Program with authorization to purchase up to $5 million of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares.

This Program, effective immediately and in effect for up to one year from today, reflects the Company’s belief that its current market valuation does not fully reflect its intrinsic value, including the strength of its legacy secured logistics business and the long-term potential of its AI business. 

The Program is intended to utilize disciplined capital allocation to help enhance this long-term value.

“This share repurchase authorization reflects our confidence in the Company’s fundamentals,” said Guardforce AI Chairwoman and CEO Lei Wang. “We are building our future on a foundation of real revenue, operational discipline, and a clear roadmap for our AI Agent platform.”

“At current market levels, we believe our shares represent compelling long-term value. This Program allows us to act opportunistically while continuing to invest in growth.” 

Repurchases under the Program may be made from time to time in open market transactions, in privately negotiated transactions, through block trades, or through other legally permissible means. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including share price, market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other factors.

The program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.
