Business Strategies
The Company operates in two revenue reporting segments: the Enterprise SaaS Software segment and the Drone as a Service (DaaS) segment. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the DaaS segment represented approximately 92% of consolidated revenue, and for the six months ended June 30, 2026, DaaS represented approximately 93% of consolidated revenue.
Software Segment
The Enterprise SaaS Software segment encompasses the Company's software subsidiaries providing cloud-based solutions across medical records, facility management, contact center, field service management, warehouse management, compliance, and public safety verticals, together with the Company's newly acquired HR and payroll (HRMS) business, NOW Solutions, Inc. The Company does not anticipate any material changes to the use of existing software products while it continues to scale the DaaS segment through acquisitions. The segment continues to provide recurring subscription and maintenance revenue from a base of enterprise and government customers.
Drone as a Service Segment
ZenaTech's DaaS strategy involves acquiring established land survey and related field services companies, integrating the Company's proprietary ZenaDrone 1000 AI drone platform and IQ Drone Series into the service delivery workflow, and converting service delivery from traditional land-based methods to drone-based operations. The objective is to reduce cost per survey while increasing capacity, geographic reach, and margin. DaaS segment revenue was $8,629,971 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and $16,442,433 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, reflecting the continued integration of the approximately twenty-six acquisitions completed since January 2025.
The Company's drone fleet includes the ZenaDrone 1000, a high-quality large drone made of carbon fiber with eight electronic motors and a blend-wing body design, which has longer flight time than many commercial drones and can self-charge on charging pads; however, the ZenaDrone 1000 is used in less than 5% of the Company's DaaS surveys and is generally not suited to land surveying, except in some cases involving very large survey areas. The Company's IQ Series drones are used most often in DaaS operations. The IQ Quad is the Company's primary land survey drone. The IQ Square is designed as a line-of-sight inspection drone for utilities customers and is also being developed, with a tethered water and electrical supply, as a power-washing drone; both applications of the IQ Square are currently in internal testing and pilot phases.

Total long-term liabilities increased by $7,074,637, or 42%, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to an increase in loans payable of $3,870,403 to $17,437,359 and an increase in long-term lease obligations of $3,204,234 to $6,483,504.

Net Working Capital | 24,322,014 | 18,254,428 | 6,067,586 | 33% |
Net working capital increased by $6,067,586, or 33%, to $24,322,014 as of June 30, 2026, driven primarily by financing activities completed during the period, including a direct financing arrangement with warrants issued 1:1 and ATM stock sales to Maxim Group, partially offset by operating cash consumption and the
recognition of a $16,687,117 warrant liability upon reclassification of certain warrants from equity to a liability under IFRS 9. Management believes that existing cash, marketable securities, available credit facilities, access to capital markets, and expected operating improvements are sufficient to meet anticipated obligations for the next twelve months.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes the Company's cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company's condensed interim-consolidated financial statements for the current period present cash flow information on a six-month, year-to-date basis only.
Cash Flow Category | 6-Months June 30, 2026 | 6-Months June 30, 2025 | Variance ($) | Variance (%) |
Cash used in operating activities | (43,481,887) | (10,842,797) | (32,639,090) | 301% |
Cash used in investing activities | (25,037,966) | (4,951,677) | (20,086,289) | 406% |
Cash provided by financing activities | 74,108,794 | 23,623,016 | 50,485,778 | 214% |
Effect of foreign exchange on cash | 665,952 | (1,296,590) | 1,962,542 | N/M |
Net change in cash | 6,254,893 | 6,531,952 | (277,059) | (4%) |
Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities was $43,481,887 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (six months 2025: $10,842,797). After adjusting the net loss of $49,094,802 for non-cash items — including amortization and depreciation of $2,594,305, loan derivative and non-cash finance expense of $7,977,562, stock-based compensation of $8,941,526, amortization of loan initiation fees of $186,950, bad debts of $176,319, loss on disposal of assets of $19,921, and a decrease in the lease obligation of $591,343 — and changes in non-cash working capital, the most significant use of operating cash was a $4,904,642 increase in amounts due from affiliate, together with a $7,157,053 increase in other current assets, a $1,557,175 increase in inventory of drone components, and a $978,937 increase in accounts receivable. This was partially offset by a $513,265 increase in deferred revenue and a $392,218 increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $25,037,966 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (six months 2025: $4,951,677). The primary components were: net purchases of marketable securities of $13,246,992, reflecting the investment of financing proceeds; acquisition costs of $5,593,182 relating to the Company's 2026 business combinations; purchase of property, plant and equipment of $3,712,754; product development costs of $1,449,102; long-term capital advances of $951,657; and other long-term assets of $212,281; partially offset by proceeds from sale of assets of $128,000.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities was $74,108,794 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (six months 2025: $23,623,016). The Company drew $11,098,010 under its revolving lines of credit, received gross proceeds of $65,417,177 from stock sales (including ATM sales to Maxim Group and the direct financing arrangement completed in May 2026, in which warrants were issued on a 1:1 basis with the common stock sold), and made loan repayments of $2,406,393.
Long-Term Debt
As of June 30, 2026, total loans payable were $21,880,822, of which $17,437,359 was classified as long-term and $4,443,463 was classified as current (December 31, 2025: $17,256,413, of which $3,689,456 was classified as current). The increase reflects new notes payable issued in connection with the Company's 2025 and 2026 business combinations, together with incremental draws under the Company's revolving credit facilities, partially offset by conversions and repayments during the period.
The Company maintains several revolving lines of credit with entities related to the controlling shareholder and the Chief Financial Officer, all bearing interest at 8% per annum with maturities in October 2034: GG Mars Capital, Inc. (owned by a family member of Shaun Passley, PhD), Star Financial Corporation (owned by a family member of Shaun Passley, PhD), Jennings Family Investments, Inc. (owned by a family member of James Sherman, CFO), Nancy Cowden, and LoneStella, LLC (owned by a family member of James Sherman, CFO). Each lender has an option to convert all or part of the outstanding balance into ZenaTech preferred shares at a $3.00 stated value or common stock at a 20% discount to market price. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company drew a combined $11,098,010 under these facilities and converted a portion of the outstanding balances into equity; the Star Financial Corporation facility was fully converted and had a nil balance as of June 30, 2026. The Company also has a 10% GG Mars Capital, Inc. convertible debenture maturing January 2027, and notes payable issued in connection with 2025 and 2026 business combinations bearing interest of 6% to 8% and maturing at various dates through 2028.

During the period, the Company issued common shares for the acquisition of entities under common control (including shares issued to Epazz, Inc. for the IQ Rover technology), for the conversion of outstanding convertible debt, for cash under ATM sales to Maxim Group, and in connection with a direct financing arrangement in which warrants were issued on a 1:1 basis with the common stock sold, resulting in the issuance of 11,792,455 warrants during the period. A portion of the Company's preferred stock was also converted to common stock during the period. Common shares outstanding increased from 48,020,885 as of December 31, 2025 to 94,884,193 as of June 30, 2026. The increase in the Common Control Adjustment Account and the accumulated deficit reflect, respectively, common-control transaction accounting and the Company's net loss and other charges recognized directly in equity during the period, as more fully described in Note 10 to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
The Company has not entered any off-balance sheet financing or arrangements.
Related Party Transactions
The Company's significant related party transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2026 are described in Note 14 to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements. The key related party relationships and transactions are summarized below, in accordance with IAS 24.
Stock Ownership Following Company Spin-Off
On November 18, 2018, the Company was restructured by way of stock dividend to Epazz shareholders. Epazz, Inc. continues to be the Company's controlling shareholder through ownership of preferred and super voting shares. As of June 30, 2026, Epazz, Inc. held 21,293,841 common shares, 21,700,000 preferred shares, and 145,000 super voting shares. Shaun Passley, PhD serves as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of both ZenaTech and Epazz.
Management Services Agreement
The Company entered into a management services agreement with Epazz on November 18, 2018, in connection with the spin-off, pursuant to which Epazz agreed to provide certain management services to ZenaTech, including for labor, office space, hosting, travel, banking, and business development.. The agreement has a 20-year term but may be terminated at any time with mutual consent. The 2018 agreement was replaced by an agreement between Zenatech, Inc. and Epazz, Inc., effective January 1, 2025 (subsequently amended and effective January 1, 2026) , and governs the provision of management and operational services by Epazz to Zenatech. The services include software development, manufacturing (including drone production), administrative support, and infrastructure, delivered using a large contractor workforce. The agreement establishes a cost-plus pricing model, where Zenatech pays Epazz the cost of services up to a 30% markup, and formalizes the long-term relationship through a term extending to November 2038.
Directors and Officers Stock Compensation
Key management personnel are those people that have the authority and responsibility for planning, directing, and controlling the activities of the Company. The Company offers its directors and officers stock compensation for their services. The stock awards are recognized as an expense at the time of granting. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, ZenaTech recognized stock-based compensation of $8,826,525 to Shaun Passley, PhD, and smaller amounts to James A. Sherman, Craig Passley, and other non-employee directors, included within total stock-based compensation expense of $8,941,526 for the period.
Advance to Affiliate for Future Services
As an operational process, ZenaTech has historically advanced funds to Epazz, Inc. relating to the Management Services Agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the combined outstanding short-term advance, long-term advance, and note receivable balance increased from $24,653,444 as of December 31, 2025 to $29,562,081 as of June 30, 2026, comprised of a short-term advance of $11,224,876, a long-term advance of $17,995,355, and a note receivable of $341,850, as additional amounts were advanced to Epazz, Inc. during the period.
Revolving Lines of Credit and Related Party Lending
The Company's revolving lines of credit and convertible debenture with GG Mars Capital, Inc., Star Financial Corporation, Jennings Family Investments, Inc., LoneStella, LLC, and Nancy Cowden — each a related party as described above — are described in the Long-Term Debt section above. All related party transactions were conducted at arm's-length terms as determined by management. Independent directors of the Board reviewed and approved significant related party transactions.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. The Company makes estimates for, among other items, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, determination of future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, determination of the fair value of stock options and warrants, determination of fair value of convertible debt instruments and their embedded derivatives, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, allowances for doubtful accounts, and potential income tax assessments and other contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current conditions, and other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
The most significant areas of estimation uncertainty during the six months ended June 30, 2026 include: stock-based compensation of $8,941,526 (fair value of equity awards using valuation models); the fair value of warrants issued in connection with the Company's direct financing arrangement, resulting in a warrant liability of $16,687,117 as of June 30, 2026; the fair value of embedded derivatives on the Company's convertible debt instruments, resulting in a derivative liability of $905,791 as of June 30, 2026; going concern assessment (the Company had an accumulated deficit of $102,836,988 as of June 30, 2026); the carrying value of goodwill and intangibles ($18,735,192 and $13,840,706, respectively, as of June 30, 2026) and management's assessment that no indicators of impairment exist; and purchase price allocation and goodwill recognized on the Company's 2026 business combinations.
Changes in Accounting Policies
There were no changes in accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025. There were no changes in accounting policies up through the dating of this Management Discussion and Analysis.
Future Changes in Accounting Standards
As of June 30, 2026 certain new standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards have been published but are not yet effective and have not been early-adopted by the Company.
Financial Instruments
The Company's consolidated financial instruments include cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, advances to affiliates, accounts payable, lease liabilities, loans payable, the warrant liability, and the derivative liability associated with the Company's convertible debt instruments. The carrying value of short-term financial instruments approximates fair value due to the relatively short periods to maturity. The warrant liability and the derivative liability are measured at fair value through profit or loss on a recurring basis and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Financial instruments are classified within a three-level fair value hierarchy: Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices), Level 2 (observable inputs), and Level 3 (unobservable inputs).
Risk Exposure and Management
The Company is exposed to various financial instrument risks and continuously assesses the impact and likelihood of this exposure. These risks include credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and currency risk. Where material these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary historical exposure to credit risk has been its advances to Epazz, Inc., which increased from $24,653,444 as of December 31, 2025 to $29,562,081 as of June 30, 2026. The Company continues to monitor this exposure.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company's ability to continue funding its operations is dependent on management's ability to raise required funding through future equity issuances and revolving credit facilities. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. The Company had working capital of $24,322,014 as of June 30, 2026, a 33% increase from the working capital of $18,254,428 as of December 31, 2025. Management believes that existing cash, marketable securities, available credit facilities, and expected cash flows from DaaS operations are sufficient for the next twelve months.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company's revolving lines of credit bear fixed interest rates of 8% per annum, and its GG Mars Capital, Inc. debenture bears interest at 10% per annum. The Company is not exposed to significant variable interest rate risk.
Currency Risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company transacts in USD, CAD, EUR, GBP, AUD, Taiwan Dollar, Turkish Lira and AED. The Company recognized a foreign currency exchange loss of $45,040 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and a foreign currency translation reserve gain of $781,400 through other comprehensive items. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange risk.
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices. The Company holds marketable securities of $22,340,879 as of June 30, 2026, which are subject to market price fluctuations.
Other MD&A Disclosures
