Data Storage Corporation Provides First Quarter

2026 Business Update

Highlights Strategic Expansion into AI Continuity

Infrastructure for Regulated Industries

Conference Call to be Held Today at 11:00 am ET

New York, N.Y., May 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

Data Storage Corporation (Nasdaq: DTST) (“DTST” and the “Company”), today provided a business update for the first

quarter ended March 31, 2026, highlighting the Company’s strategic initiatives focused on emerging AI infrastructure opportunities

and regulated enterprise continuity solutions.

Business Highlights:

● Launching Sovereign AI Solutions (SaiS): Establishing a wholly owned subsidiary, Sovereign AI Solutions

(“SaiS”), focused on developing a purpose-built AI Continuity Control Plane for regulated industries designed to support recovery,

validation, and compliance for sovereign AI and AI Factory environments across sectors such as healthcare, financial services, and insurance.

● Strong Financial Position: Maintained strong financial position with no long-term debt and substantial

working capital.

● Stable Nexxis Operations: Continued stable recurring operations through Nexxis Inc.’s telecom,

internet access, VoIP, and SD-WAN services.

● Evaluation of Strategic Opportunities: Continuing to evaluate strategic partnerships, investments,

and acquisition opportunities that enhance shareholder value.

Chuck Piluso, Chief Executive Officer of Data Storage Corporation, commented,

“During the first quarter, we continued executing our strategic transformation following the sale of our cloud solutions business

in 2025, with a focus on identifying large-scale infrastructure opportunities where we believe regulatory requirements and enterprise

AI adoption are creating meaningful long-term demand. As organizations increasingly deploy sovereign AI and AI Factory environments across

healthcare, financial services, and insurance sectors, we believe a significant infrastructure gap is emerging around AI recovery, resiliency,

validation, and compliance for mission-critical systems.”

“To address this opportunity, we are establishing Sovereign AI Solutions,

a wholly owned subsidiary focused on developing a purpose-built AI Continuity Control Plane designed for regulated industries. We believe

this initiative positions DTST to participate in a large and rapidly evolving market opportunity while leveraging our experience supporting

critical enterprise infrastructure environments.”

“At the same time, Nexxis continues to provide a stable recurring

revenue base through its telecom, VoIP, direct internet access, SD-WAN, and data transport services. During the first quarter of 2026,

sales from Nexxis increased 10.9% year over year, while gross profit increased 32.1% with gross margin expanding to 53.7% from 45.0% in

the prior year period. We believe these results reflect continued demand for our connectivity solutions, increased spending from existing

customers, and the operational foundation necessary to support our broader strategic initiatives.”

“Importantly, we are pursuing this strategy from a position of financial

strength. With no long-term debt, substantial working capital, disciplined capital deployment, and stable recurring operations, we believe

we are well positioned to advance our strategic initiatives while maintaining operational flexibility.”

“Looking ahead, we expect to continue advancing development initiatives

associated with SaiS throughout 2026 and anticipate providing additional commercial and operational updates as the platform progresses

toward potential customer engagements. We also continue evaluating complementary opportunities, including strategic partnerships, investments,

and acquisitions, that we believe may strengthen our long-term positioning while enhancing shareholder value.”

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains “forward-looking

statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, that are intended to be covered

by the safe harbor created thereby. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results,

performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking

statements. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,”

“intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans” and similar expressions or future or conditional

verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “may” and “could” are generally forward-looking

in nature and not historical facts, although not all forward-looking statements include the foregoing. Although the Company believes that

the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can provide no assurance that such expectations will

prove to have been correct. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations and assumptions as of the date

of this press release and include statements regarding establishing SaiS to develop a purpose-built AI Continuity Control Plane for regulated

industries to support recovery, validation, and compliance for sovereign AI and AI Factory environments across sectors such as healthcare,

financial services, and insurance; continuing to evaluate strategic partnerships, investments, and acquisition opportunities that enhance

shareholder value; identifying large-scale infrastructure opportunities where regulatory requirements and enterprise AI adoption will

create meaningful long-term demand; a significant infrastructure gap emerging around AI recovery, resiliency, validation, and compliance

for mission-critical systems; the SaiS initiative positioning the Company to participate in a large and rapidly evolving market opportunity

while leveraging its experience supporting critical enterprise infrastructure environments; Nexxis continuing to provide a stable recurring

revenue base through its telecom, VoIP, direct internet access, SD-WAN, and data transport services; first quarter results reflecting

continuing demand for the Company’s connectivity solutions and the operational foundation necessary to support its broader strategic

initiatives; being positioned to advance the Company’s strategic initiatives while maintaining operational flexibility; continuing

advancing development initiatives associated with SaiS throughout 2026; providing additional commercial and operational updates as the

platform progresses toward potential customer engagements; continuing to evaluate complementary opportunities, including strategic partnerships,

investments, and acquisitions, to strengthen the Company’s long-term positioning while enhancing shareholder value. While DTST believes

these forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on any such forward-looking statements, which are

based on information available to it on the date of this release. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and

uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations and

assumptions from those set forth or implied by any forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ

materially from current expectations include, among others, the Company’s ability to identify strategic partnerships, investments,

and acquisition opportunities that enhance shareholder value; the Company’s ability to identify large-scale infrastructure opportunities

where regulatory requirements and enterprise AI adoption will create meaningful long-term demand; the Company’s ability to advance

development initiatives associated with SaiS and participate in the AI evolving market opportunity; the Company’s ability to use

the demand for its connectivity solutions as the operational foundation necessary to support its broader strategic initiatives; and the

Company’s ability to advance its strategic initiatives while maintaining operational flexibility. These risks should not be construed

as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report

on Form 10-K, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8- K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it was initially made. Except as required by law, the Company assumes

no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances

or otherwise.
