Exhibit 99.1

Aclarion Announces

$2.5 Million Stock Repurchase Plan

Highlights Disciplined

Capital Allocation While Supporting Continued Nociscan® Adoption

Broomfield, CO, April 22, 2026 – Aclarion,

Inc., (“Aclarion” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ACON, ACONW), a commercial-stage healthcare

technology company leveraging biomarkers and proprietary augmented intelligence (AI) algorithms through its Nociscan platform to help

physicians identify the location of chronic low back pain and support improved treatment success rates, today announced that its Board

of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $2.5 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Aclarion expects to execute the repurchase program over the next 12

months. The timing, volume, and nature of repurchases will be determined by the Company based on factors including market conditions,

share price, liquidity, and operational and strategic priorities. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number

of shares, and may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time.

The Company intends to fund the repurchase program using existing cash

and cash equivalents.

“This authorization underscores our commitment to disciplined

capital allocation and our belief that Aclarion’s current valuation does not fully reflect the strength of our platform and long-term

growth opportunity,” said Brent Ness, Chief Executive Officer of Aclarion. “We believe our shares represent a compelling value

at current levels, and we view this program as a flexible and opportunistic tool to enhance shareholder value while continuing to invest

in the clinical adoption and expansion of Nociscan.”

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of

approximately $19.0 million, which management believes provides sufficient runway to support operations through key upcoming milestones,

including the initial milestone of the CLARITY randomized trial.

Greg Gould, Chief Financial Officer of Aclarion, added, “We are

focused on balancing investment in growth with prudent capital management. Given our current capital position and expected operating needs,

we believe a share repurchase program is an efficient and disciplined way to deploy capital while maintaining the financial flexibility

necessary to execute on our strategic priorities.”

Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, in amounts,

at prices, and at such times as the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions and other considerations, in compliance with

applicable federal and state securities laws, including Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Repurchases may be executed through a variety of methods, including open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades,

accelerated share repurchase transactions, or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, which may permit the Company to repurchase shares

during periods when it would otherwise be restricted from doing so.

About Aclarion, Inc.

Aclarion is a healthcare technology company

that leverages Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (“MRS”), proprietary signal processing techniques, biomarkers, and augmented

intelligence algorithms to optimize clinical treatments. The Company is first addressing the chronic low back pain market with Nociscan,

the first, evidence-supported, SaaS platform to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the

lumbar spine. Through a cloud connection, Nociscan receives magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data from an MRI machine for each lumbar

be associated with disc pain. Biomarker data is entered into proprietary algorithms to indicate if a disc may be a source of pain. When

used with other diagnostic tools, Nociscan provides critical insights into the location of a patient’s low back pain, giving physicians

clarity to optimize treatment strategies. For more information, please visit www.aclarion.com.
