Swarmer Reports First Quarter Financial Results
AUSTIN, Texas, May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Swarmer, Inc (“Swarmer” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SWMR), a drone autonomy software company which has supported more than 100,000 real-world combat missions in Ukraine since April 2024, today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 (“Q1 2026”), and discussed recent business developments.
Management Commentary
Swarmer President & U.S. CEO Alex Fink stated: “The first quarter of 2026 represented an important step forward for Swarmer as we completed our initial public offering, strengthened our leadership team and continued to expand our presence within the autonomous systems ecosystem. These milestones support our ability to pursue a rapidly expanding market, as demand for autonomous and collaborative unmanned systems continues to accelerate amid rising deployment volumes and persistent operator constraints. Swarmer’s software is purpose‑built for this environment, and we are seeing expanding engagement from manufacturers developing next‑generation, high‑volume platforms across multiple domains.
“Looking ahead, we are focused on expanding adoption across a wider range of unmanned platforms, deepening our integration with leading manufacturers and supporting programs as they transition from development into scaled deployment. As these initiatives mature, we believe Swarmer can serve as a foundational software layer for autonomous and collaborative systems, enabling long‑term growth as deployment volumes increase across multiple domains.”

About Swarmer
Swarmer™ is a defense technology company that specializes in vendor-agnostic software which allows one operator to intuitively control hundreds of autonomous platforms in real time. Swarmer’s primary mission areas include autonomous swarm coordination, integration of multi-domain unmanned systems and AI-powered autonomy software for distributed operations. Swarmer is not a drone manufacturer and does not depend on any single platform, supplier or hardware lifecycle. Instead, Swarmer operates at the intelligence layer, developing autonomy, coordination and decision-making software that enables large numbers of low-cost unmanned systems to operate collectively as one coherent, resilient force. Swarmer’s technology has been rigorously validated in real-world kinetic environments and was first deployed in combat operations in Ukraine in April 2024. Since then, it has completed more than 100,000 combat missions, generating terabytes of proprietary data that informs its machine-learning models and enables the replication of advanced pilot performance at scale. Swarmer’s routine use in combat missions generates continuous streams of telemetry, sensor data and operational feedback which are then used to refine performance, increase resilience and accelerate learning. Swarmer has headquarters in Austin, Texas, and maintains operations and teams in Ukraine, Poland and Estonia.
