XTI Aerospace Business Summary

XTI Aerospace, Inc. (XTIA) operates a dual-segment business model focused on the unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) market and the development of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) technology. The company generates the majority of its current revenue through its subsidiary, Drone Nerds, LLC, which utilizes a transactional and service-based model to provide UAS hardware, integrated software solutions, and technical support to enterprise and government clients. Its second segment, XTI Aircraft Company, is focused on the commercialization of the TriFan 600, a fixed-wing xVTOL aircraft designed for point-to-point travel. Following the February 2026 divestiture of its legacy real-time location systems (RTLS) business, the company has pivoted exclusively to aerospace, projecting 2026 revenues to exceed $160 million. XTI Aerospace competes directly with Joby Aviation, Archer Aviation, and Talyn, positioning itself as a diversified platform that combines immediate UAS cash flow with high-upside, long-range VTOL aircraft development. The leadership team is headed by Chairman and CEO Scott Pomeroy, a veteran executive with over 35 years of experience who previously served as CFO of Dex Media and CEO of Local Insight Media. The executive suite includes CFO Brooke Turk, a corporate finance specialist with a background at Arthur Andersen and Springboard Ventures, and Chief Strategy Officer Tobin Arthur, who brings innovation experience from Starbucks and AngelMD. The technical vision is driven by CTO Jerry Nichols and XTI Aircraft Company founder David Brody, who holds numerous patents for the TriFan 600 technology. The company’s strategic direction is further bolstered by a high-profile Board of Directors, including Jonathan G. Ornstein, the former 25-year CEO of Mesa Air Group, and Clinton J. Weber. Notable institutional support includes a strategic investment from Mesa Air Group, which aligns XTI with major regional airline operations as it moves toward FAA certification of its flagship aircraft.
