Ra'anana, Israel, Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rail Vision Ltd. (NASDAQ:RVSN) ("Rail Vision" or the "Company"), an early commercialization stage technology company seeking to revolutionize railway safety and the data-related market, today announced the completion of its previously announced strategic transaction to acquire a 51% ownership interest in Quantum Transportation Ltd. ("Quantum Transportation").

Quantum Transportation holds an exclusive sub license, for rail technologies and platforms, for an innovative pending patent application in quantum error correction owned by Ramot, the technology transfer company of the Tel Aviv University. This IP and additional know-how addresses critical challenges in noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices by enabling efficient, real-time decoding of surface code errors, significantly reducing computational overhead compared to traditional methods and supporting scalable fault-tolerant quantum computing.

Through this transaction, Rail Vision and Quantum Transportation aim to combine quantum-AI based intellectual property (IP) protection and innovation with Rail Vision's advanced vision and railway-safety technologies. This strategic combination is expected to create meaningful technological synergies, enhance Rail Vision's current and future product lines, accelerate innovation, and support long-term value creation for stakeholders.

Pursuant to the acquisition agreement announced on December 1, 2025, Rail Vision has completed the share exchange transaction, through which it acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Quantum Transportation, thereby obtaining majority ownership and control.

In connection with the closing, Rail Vision issued an aggregate of 2,982,710 ordinary shares, representing approximately 4.99% of the Company's issued and outstanding share capital as of the date of signing the acquisition agreement and prior to such issuance, to certain former shareholders of Quantum Transportation, in exchange for their full holdings, representing 51% ownership of Quantum Transportation. Following the closing, Quantum Transportation became a majority-owned subsidiary of Rail Vision.

Additionally, upon closing of the acquisition, Rail Vision also extended to Quantum Transportation a convertible loan facility of up to $700,000, bearing interest at an annual rate of 8%, to be disbursed in tranches to support Quantum Transportation's operations and development roadmap. The loan is subject to the terms set forth in the acquisition agreement.
