Atlanta, GA, Oct. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ScanTech AI Systems Inc. (the "Company" or "ScanTech AI") (Nasdaq: STAI), a developer of advanced AI-powered security screening and imaging technology, previously announced that its Audit Committee has appointed Berkowitz Pollack Brant Advisors + CPAs (“BPB”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, and certain interim periods.

The engagement of BPB marks another step in ScanTech AI’s broader strategy to strengthen financial reporting, enhance internal controls, and continue advancing in its Nasdaq re-compliance plan. BPB will conduct the audit of the Company’s 2025 financial statements and continue to promote integrity and transparency in financial disclosures.

“We welcome Berkowitz Pollack Brant as our new independent auditor and look forward to their guidance as we continue to work to elevate our reporting standards. This appointment aligns with our broader Nasdaq compliance and governance initiatives and supports the Company’s commitment to accurate, timely, and transparent financial reporting,” said Dolan Falconer, Chief Executive Officer of ScanTech AI.

The auditor appointment precedes ScanTech AI’s recent announcement of its purchase agreement with ARC Group International Ltd. (“ARC”), under which ARC committed to provide up to $50 million of capital to the Company via an Equity Line of Credit (“ELOC”) once the shares for such ELOC are registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In connection with that purchase agreement, ScanTech AI expects to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of securities issuable under the ELOC. The combination of expanded audit oversight and strategic financing flexibility is intended to enhance the Company’s financial stability and support its long-term growth objectives.

Words such as “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates,” or the negative or plural of these words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

These statements relate to, among other things, the Company’s ability to draw funds under the ELOC, complete additional financings, maintain its Nasdaq listing, regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, execute its growth strategy, and develop or commercialize its technologies.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: market conditions; dilution and volatility associated with equity financings; the Company’s ability to remain in compliance with Nasdaq listing standards; operational and regulatory risks in the artificial intelligence and security technology sectors; product and service acceptance; regulatory oversights; whether ScanTech AI will have sufficient capital to operate as anticipated; and other factors detailed in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Should one or more of these risks of uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions of ScanTech AI prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.
