Xiao-I Corporation's Recent Update on Patent Lawsuit Against Apple

Xiao-I Corporation, listed on NASDAQ under the ticker AIXI, has recently made significant progress in its ongoing patent infringement lawsuit against Apple. This legal battle, which began over allegations of intellectual property rights violations concerning core artificial intelligence technology, has reached new heights with important developments in the Chinese legal system.

In a formal announcement made on March 31, 2026, the Shanghai-based AI solutions provider indicated the latest updates regarding its variable interest entity (VIE)'s lawsuit against Apple Computer Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., and its parent company, Apple Inc. The lawsuit stems from claims that Apple violated the intellectual property rights of Xiao-I’s VIE, particularly focusing on key AI patents deemed critical to the company’s operations.

The lawsuit has evolved dramatically since the initiation of hearings. On November 1, 2024, the Shanghai High People's Court held its second session of hearings, following the conclusion of the trial phase on July 31 of the same year. Following this, Apple filed multiple appeals with the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China. The requests aimed to invalidate the core AI patents for which Xiao-I was claiming infringement.

On March 27, 2026, the Supreme People's Court handed down a definitive ruling on the matter. In a landmark decision, the court rejected Apple's claims to nullify the disputed patents and affirmed the legality and validity of Xiao-I's technology. This ruling holds significant weight in the Chinese legal landscape, as it is both final and binding, leaving no option for further appeal by Apple in regards to the validity of the patents in question.

While Xiao-I's management expressed confidence in the case's merits, they also cautioned investors that there could be no definitive assurance regarding the outcome of the remaining legal proceedings against Apple. The company underscored that the case's progression is complicated and that monetary compensation from the lawsuit is not guaranteed. Investors have been advised to conduct thorough evaluations and review all pertinent information before making investment decisions.

As this legal saga unfolds, Xiao-I Corporation has promised to keep stakeholders and the general public informed of further significant developments in a timely manner.
