Exhibit 99.1
iPower Announces
Plan to Evaluate Expansion Into AI Infrastructure Hardware
Company to evaluate
potential acquisition or financing of AI compute hardware, data center relationships and equipment leasing opportunities
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif., July 15, 2026 -- iPower
Inc. (Nasdaq: IPW) ("iPower" or the "Company") today announced that it plans to evaluate a potential expansion into
the AI infrastructure hardware sector, including the possible acquisition or financing of AI compute hardware and related infrastructure
assets.
As part of this planned evaluation, the Company
intends to explore opportunities involving high-performance computing equipment, data center operators and infrastructure partners that
may support the deployment, hosting and operation of AI-related hardware. If implemented, the Company's strategy may include leasing equipment
to data centers, compute operators, enterprise customers or other infrastructure participants.
"We believe AI infrastructure hardware may
represent an attractive opportunity as demand for AI compute capacity continues to grow," said Lawrence Tan, Chief Executive Officer
of iPower. "At this stage, we are evaluating potential opportunities in a disciplined manner, including hardware acquisition, data
center collaboration and equipment leasing models that may align with iPower's long-term strategy."
Mr. Tan added, "This planned initiative remains
at an exploratory stage, and any future investment or commercial arrangement will depend on market conditions, equipment availability,
financing, due diligence, partner discussions and the execution of definitive agreements. We intend to provide updates if and when material
developments occur."
The Company has not yet entered into definitive
agreements for the acquisition, financing, deployment or leasing of AI infrastructure hardware. There can be no assurance that the Company
will complete any such transaction or that any planned initiative will result in revenue or stockholder value.

data-driven company executing a focused strategy at the intersection of AI infrastructure and real-world commerce. Building on its established
e-commerce operations, technology platform, and capital markets experience, the Company is expanding into AI infrastructure investments
