Braiin Advances Proposed Acquisition of Home.cc with Valuation and
Growth-Capital Components Totaling Approximately A$73 Million to Build
AI-Native LivTech Platform for Residential Lifecycle Services, Targeting the
$3+ Trillion Global Residential Lifecycle Services Market

Proposed acquisition would combine Home's embedded residential distribution,
payments infrastructure and household-services platform with Braiin's AI,
CXaaS and PropTech ecosystem

MELBOURNE, AU AND LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire
(https://www.accessnewswire.com/)  / May 12, 2026 / Braiin Limited
(NASDAQ:BRAI) ("Braiin" or the "Company"), a global AI platform company
delivering automation and predictive analytics across precision agriculture,
customer experience and property technology, today announced that it has
entered into a non-binding term sheet to advance its proposed acquisition of
Home.cc ("Home"), a Living Technology ("LivTech") platform focused on embedded
residential distribution, household service activation, payments and connected
living infrastructure.

Under the proposed structure, Braiin would acquire a 50.1% majority interest
in Cumbria Capital Ltd, the parent company of Home.cc, through a share
purchase to be satisfied by the issuance of Braiin equity securities. The
non-binding term sheet contemplates a pre-money equity valuation of
approximately £35.0 million (approximately A$66.1 million), and Braiin would
also invest approximately £3.85 million (approximately A$7.27 million) into
Home as growth capital to support continued platform expansion.

The proposed acquisition remains subject to satisfactory due diligence;
negotiation and execution of definitive transaction documents; shareholder
approvals of both Braiin and Home; regulatory, Nasdaq and other approvals;
delivery of AICPA-standard audited financial statements of Home; and other
customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that definitive
agreements will be executed or that the proposed acquisition will be completed
on the terms contemplated in the non-binding term sheet, or at all.

The contemplated acquisition is expected to advance Braiin's strategy of
building a global AI-native residential lifecycle platform that connects
property transactions, household service activation, payments, customer
engagement and ongoing home-management workflows into a unified digital
infrastructure layer.

Home has developed a LivTech platform focused on simplifying how consumers
move into, activate and manage their homes. Its platform is designed to work
with estate agencies, landlords, property managers and residential service
providers to streamline move-in workflows and extend customer engagement
across utilities, broadband, insurance, household payments and connected
living services.

The proposed acquisition builds on Braiin and Home's previously announced
exclusive strategic partnership and is expected to deepen integration between
Home's embedded residential distribution and Braiin's broader AI, Property
Technology ("PropTech"), customer engagement and workflow orchestration
capabilities.

"Home.cc represents a highly transformational strategic milestone for Braiin
as we continue building an AI-native Living Infrastructure platform for the
residential lifecycle," said Natraj Balasubramanian, Chief Executive Officer
of Braiin Limited. "Residential services remain highly fragmented across
property workflows, utilities, broadband, insurance, payments and customer
engagement. By combining Home's LivTech platform with Braiin's embedded
PropTech, Customer Experience as a Service ("CXaaS"), and transaction
infrastructure, we believe we can fundamentally reimagine how residential
services are delivered globally. Our goal is to create a more integrated
operating layer for how consumers move, activate services and manage the
ongoing needs of the home."

Mr. Balasubramanian continued, "This contemplated acquisition is not simply an
expansion of our PropTech footprint. It is intended to strengthen the
distribution, transaction and recurring monetization layer of our broader AI
ecosystem. Home's position at the point of move-in gives Braiin access to
high-intent customer moments where essential household decisions are already
being made. We believe that creates a compelling opportunity to combine
embedded distribution, AI-driven engagement and recurring household commerce
into a scalable platform across the UK, ANZ, the United States and future
global markets."

The combined platform is expected to support multiple stages of the
residential lifecycle, including:

·      Tenant onboarding and move-in workflows

·      Utility, broadband and telecom activation

·      Household insurance and embedded service offers

·      Payments and recurring household commerce

·      AI-powered customer engagement and support

·      Property manager and landlord workflow automation

·      Service orchestration across connected residential providers

·      Data-driven insights to improve conversion, retention and
customer lifetime value

Braiin believes the acquisition would materially strengthen its position
across the convergence of PropTech, embedded finance, utility and telecom
enablement, AI-powered customer experience, residential workflow automation,
connected living infrastructure, and recurring household monetization. The
Company expects Home's capabilities to integrate with Braiin's existing
embedded PropTech operations, CXaaS division, AI workflow intelligence tools
and broader Living Infrastructure strategy.

"Home was built around a simple idea: running a home should not be
fragmented," said Matt Spence, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Home.cc.
"Consumers are asked to make critical decisions about utilities, broadband,
insurance, payments and household services at exactly the moment when they are
already dealing with the complexity of moving. By combining Home's embedded
platform with Braiin's AI, customer engagement and international operating
infrastructure, we believe we can accelerate the development of a more
intelligent and connected system for how people move in and live."

The acquisition would also expand Braiin's ability to create recurring revenue
opportunities across the LivTech residential lifecycle. Rather than addressing
the home as a single transaction, the combined platform is designed to support
an ongoing relationship with consumers and property stakeholders through
service activation, bill management, payments, product recommendations and
AI-enabled customer support.

According to Grand View Research, the global PropTech market is projected to
reach approximately US$94.2 billion by 2030. Braiin believes the broader
residential lifecycle services opportunity is substantially larger when
including utilities, telecommunications, broadband, insurance, payments,
connected home infrastructure and recurring household commerce.

The proposed acquisition further supports Braiin's broader M&A strategy of
acquiring synergistic platform assets that can be integrated across its AI,
workflow automation and customer engagement ecosystem while preserving
operating continuity and accelerating cross-platform monetization.
