WRAP Expands WrapShield™ Non-Lethal Response Layer with Wraptor MX™ Multi-Shot Platform; Selects Law Enforcement Partners for Exclusive Early Adopter Program

About this update from Wrap Technologies, Inc.

First Operational Prototype Completes Initial Field-Readiness Testing — WrapShield's Non-Lethal Response Layer Now Spans Three Coordinated Delivery Mechanisms MIAMI, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WRAP Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WRAP) ("WRAP" or the "Company"), developer of the WrapShield™ Autonomous Public Safety Platform, today announced the completion of the first operational prototype of Wraptor MX™, the Company's multi-shot non-lethal restraint platform. WrapShield's Non-Lethal Response™ layer — previously served by a single instrument, the BolaWrap® 150 — now has a newly unveiled operational component. Together with the DFR-X drone-deployed restraint system, WrapShield is designed to bring together three dedicated non-lethal delivery mechanisms — handheld, multi-shot, and drone-deployed — under a single platform architecture. "BolaWrap introduced a new way for officers to create time, distance, and control through an instrument of restraint. Wraptor MX builds on that foundation and is designed to allow officers to respond to multiple engagements before reloading, potentially giving teams greater flexibility in dynamic and rapidly evolving situations," said Scot Cohen, Chief Executive Officer of WRAP . "Wraptor MX is much more than another product. We believe it represents the next evolution of our response architecture within WrapShield. We are expanding our ability to deliver proportional sight, sound, and sensation effects across a broader range of public safety operations. As BolaWrap earned adoption by more than 1,000 agencies in over 60 countries, we believe Wraptor MX can extend those capabilities deeper into tactical, corrections, private security, and defense environments." The announcement builds on ATF Ruling 2026-2, effective July 2, 2026, which classified the BolaWrap® 150 as neither a firearm nor an "any other weapon," affirming it as an instrument of restraint under federal law. That determination — specific to the BolaWrap 150 — may provide a favorable regulatory reference point for non-lethal restraint technology across corrections, law enforcement, and public-safety applications, and WRAP expects it to accelerate adoption in the United States. Driven by use-of-force reform, policy mandates, and the growth of autonomous response architectures in public safety, the global non-lethal weapons market is estimated at approximately $9.5 billion today and is projected to grow to roughly $13 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research.1
