(Positive)
Tags

Ondas (NASDAQ:ONDS) reported record Q1 2026 revenue of $50.1 million, up 1,065% year-over-year and 66% sequentially, exceeding the high end of guidance by 25%. Pro forma backlog rose to $457 million from $68.3 million, and full-year 2026 revenue guidance increased to at least $390 million, about 670% above 2025.

Ondas ended Q1 with $1.48 billion in cash and investments, driven in part by a January 2026 equity offering of about $1 billion. Q1 net income was $361.2 million, mainly from non-cash gains, while adjusted EBITDA showed a $10.9 million loss. Product companies were adjusted EBITDA positive, and acquisitions such as Mistral and World View expanded its defense and ISR platform.

Analysis

The stock surged +26.5% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with the company’s pattern of sizeable moves on earnings, where similar reports averaged 3.91% swings. The combination of Q1 revenue of $50.1M, a raised 2026 target to $390M, and backlog of $457M supports a high-growth narrative. However, elevated operating and adjusted EBITDA losses and active use of an S-3ASR shelf via multiple resale prospectuses could add volatility if sentiment shifts.

Recent Company History

Across recent earnings, Ondas has repeatedly highlighted rapid revenue growth and rising guidance. In Q3 2025, revenue reached $10.1M and 2025 guidance was raised. The Q4 2025 report showed record quarterly and full‑year revenue of $50.7M and introduced a 2026 target of at least $375M. Earlier 2024–2025 results emphasized building backlog and expanding OAS. Today’s Q1 2026 release, with sharply higher revenue and a higher $390M 2026 target, extends this same high‑growth trajectory.

Key Terms

adjusted EBITDA, backlog, operating leverage, warrants, +4 more
8 terms
adjusted EBITDA financial
"Product companies were adjusted EBITDA positive during the first quarter..."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
backlog financial
"Pro forma backlog reached $457 million vs $68.3 million at the end of 2025..."
A backlog is the amount of work or orders that a company has received but hasn't completed yet. It’s like a restaurant with many dishes to serve; the backlog shows how many orders are still waiting to be finished. It matters because a large backlog can indicate strong demand or potential delays in delivering products or services.
operating leverage financial
"our financial model is also demonstrating operating leverage as our product companies..."
Operating leverage measures how much a company's profits are affected by changes in sales volume. When a business has high operating leverage, small increases in sales can lead to much larger increases in profit, much like a lever amplifies force. It matters to investors because it indicates how sensitive a company's earnings are to fluctuations in sales, affecting risk and potential returns.
View in glossary
warrants financial
"non-cash gain of $389.5 million relating to warrants issued in connection with the October 2025 equity raise..."
Warrants are special documents that give you the right to buy a company's stock at a set price before a certain date. They are often used as a way for companies to attract investors or raise money, and their value can increase if the company's stock price goes up.
View in glossary
IDIQ regulatory
"participation in a $982 million IDIQ program with the U.S. Army for loitering munitions..."
An IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity) is a type of government procurement contract that sets terms and maximum limits for buying goods or services over a period without specifying exact delivery dates or quantities up front. For investors, an IDIQ signals a potential steady revenue stream and easier repeat business because it gives a company preferred access to future orders under agreed terms—think of it as a standing shopping account that can generate unpredictable but recurring sales.
loitering munitions technical
"a $982 million IDIQ program with the U.S. Army for loitering munitions..."
A loitering munition is a weapon that combines a small, guided aircraft and its explosive warhead into a single system that can fly over an area, wait while searching for a target, then dive in to destroy it — think of it as a drone with a built‑in bomb that can loiter like a hawk before striking. Investors care because demand, production, export rules, and ethical or regulatory restrictions can sharply affect defense company revenues, supply chains, and share prices.
C-UAS technical
"C-UAS systems, with strong contributions from ground systems and sensor systems..."
c‑UAS (counter‑unmanned aircraft system) are integrated tools and procedures used to detect, track, and stop unauthorized drones—like a security system that sees and disables an intruder in the sky. Investors watch c‑UAS because rising drone use and tighter rules create demand for hardware, software, and services, which can drive sales growth and affect regulatory risk for companies in defense, airports, utilities, and event security.
ISR technical
"advanced ISR capabilities, while also advancing Ondas' position as a prime contractor..."
ISR stands for socially responsible investing (from the French phrase Investissement Socialement Responsable) and means choosing stocks, bonds or funds based on environmental, social and governance criteria in addition to financial return. Like picking a brand that matches your values, ISR matters to investors because it helps align portfolios with personal or institutional priorities, can reduce exposure to companies with regulatory or reputational risks, and can influence demand and valuation for firms deemed more sustainable.

Q1 2026 revenue of $50.1 million represents a more than 10-fold increase from Q1 2025 and 66% quarter-over-quarter exceeds the high end of Company's guidance by 25%

Raising full-year 2026 revenue target to at least $390 million representing approximately 670% year-over-year increase driven by organic growth, accelerated strategic growth program and global demand for unmanned and autonomous systems

Product companies were adjusted EBITDA positive during the first quarter, 6 months ahead of targets

Pro forma backlog reached $457 million vs $68.3 million at the end of 2025, driven by significant order activity during the quarter and the addition of newly acquired companies

$1.48 billion in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments as of March 31, 2026, providing substantial capacity to support organic growth and the Core + Strategic Growth Program

Conference Call Scheduled for today, May 14th at 8:30 a.m. ET

WEST PALM BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / May 14, 2026 / Ondas Inc. (Nasdaq:ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence, reported financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

"We delivered record results in the first quarter of 2026, with revenue of $50.1 million representing a ten-fold increase year-over-year, as our Core + Strategic Growth Program continues to drive strong execution and accelerating momentum across the business," said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. "Our system-of-systems platform is scaling effectively, and we are beginning to realize the benefits of a global operating platform designed to support higher levels of business activity and revenue. Importantly, our financial model is also demonstrating operating leverage as our product companies were adjusted EBITDA positive during the first quarter, 6 months ahead of our targets. With backlog surging to $457 million, including contributions from recently closed acquisitions, we believe we have strong visibility into our 2026 targets and are increasing our full-year revenue outlook to at least $390 million."

"We are operating in an environment of powerful demand tailwinds, particularly across counter-UAS and defense robotics markets. Our counter-drone platforms, led by Sentrycs and Iron Drone, are seeing strong global demand as customers respond to evolving security threats and heightened global tensions. Indeed, Sentrycs CoRF is seeing meaningful upside to earlier expectations, which we are addressing through increased production. At the same time, our ground-based businesses continue to gain traction, highlighted by significant tender wins, including approximately $220 million in aggregated awards captured by 4M Defense and INDO Earth to start 2026. These wins reflect both the urgency of the markets we serve and the strength of our integrated capabilities."

"Our recent acquisitions of Mistral and World View are materially accelerating our go-to-market capabilities, particularly in the United States. Mistral brings a highly strategic position as a prime contractor, including participation in a $982 million IDIQ program with the U.S. Army for loitering munitions, providing meaningful long-term visibility into our growth outlook. World View is a game changer for Ondas, accelerating our multi-domain ISR roadmap with the critical stratospheric layer while bringing exceptional leadership, technical talent, and deep relationships across U.S. defense customers. Together, these platforms significantly expand our U.S. footprint and strengthen our engagement with multiple combatant commands across the U.S. Department of War (DOW)."

"Our partnership with Palantir Technologies is adding tremendous operational value and helping to advance our layered, multi-domain ISR roadmap. By leveraging Palantir's AIP platform, we are enhancing the scalability of our global operating platform and integrating our capabilities across air, ground, and now stratospheric domains into unified, AI-driven systems. Our collaboration with Palantir is unique and symbiotic. The jointly developed SkyWeaver platform leveraging adaptive, agentic AI at the edge represents a new co-built operational system that combines our hardware, AI and autonomy with Palantir's data intelligence to drive rapid, advanced decision making. This offering positions Ondas at the center of next-generation defense and homeland security architectures, where data fusion, autonomy, and artificial intelligence drive superior mission outcomes."

"We have made significant progress in building the operating foundation to support sustained growth. Investments in manufacturing, supply chain, field services and global go-to-market capabilities are enabling us to industrialize our technologies and deliver at scale across regions. A key milestone is the formation of ONBERG Autonomous Systems ("ONBERG"), our joint venture with Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG ("Heidelberg"), establishing a localized European platform for manufacturing, engineering and customer engagement in a critical defense and security market. Together with our U.S.-based manufacturing partnerships and global supply chain initiatives, these efforts are strengthening our ability to meet growing demand while ensuring regional compliance. As a result, we are seeing increasing operating leverage and a clearer path to profitability for Ondas as revenue scales."

"Looking ahead, we believe Ondas is well positioned for the remainder of 2026 and beyond. Recent global developments continue to underscore the urgency driving accelerated adoption of our solutions, reinforcing our long-term thesis and validating the strategic actions we have taken to position the Company for a multi-decade growth cycle. With strong financial resources, a rapidly expanding platform, and increasing global demand, we are seeing record levels of backlog and visibility, supporting meaningful upside to our prior expectations. We remain focused on executing our strategy to drive sustained growth, operating leverage, and long-term value creation for our shareholders," Brock concluded.

First Quarter 2026 Financial Results1

Revenues increased 66% sequentially to $50.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $30.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and more than 10-fold increase from $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase reflects strong performance across the Company's portfolio particularly with the C-UAS systems, with strong contributions from ground systems and sensor systems provided by Bird Aerosystems and Insight Sense.

Gross profit was $24.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $12.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and $1.5 million for three months ended March 31, 2025. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 49% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, 42% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in gross profit results from increased revenue at OAS, a favorable product mix and the additional revenue covering fixed manufacturing costs as well as gross margin generated by companies acquired during the period. We expect gross profit to remain volatile on a quarter-to-quarter basis due to mix shifts across systems sales which can be lumpy at this early stage of OAS' systems adoption and market penetration.

Operating expenses increased to $67.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $36.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2025, and $11.8 million in three months ended March 31, 2025. The increases were primarily due to the added operating expenses of acquired companies, an increase in personnel costs and purchased services at OAS and Ondas Inc., as the Company continues to build out management infrastructure to support expected business expansion in the coming years, amortization of intangibles expense associated with the acquisitions, and legal and due diligence expenses relating to the acquisition activity.

Operating loss increased to $42.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $23.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase from both periods was the result of the changes described above.

Other income, net was $404.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $77.5 million of other expense, net for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and $3.8 million other expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Other income, net included a non-cash gain of $389.5 million relating to warrants issued in connection with the October 2025 equity raise and January 2026 equity raise that have been classified as a liability and are measured at fair value using a Black-Scholes valuation model as of March 31, 2026. The valuation of this liability is subject to material changes from period to period without having any impact on the business of the company or the underlying economics of the warrants.

Other income, net, also includes a one-time non-cash gain of $51.5 million relating to the deconsolidation of Ondas Networks due to the capital restructuring of this company in January 2026 and $12.1 million from interest and dividends partially offset by a non-cash charge of $46.2 adjusting a virtual interest entity to fair value.

Net income was $361.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 which included the non-cash items described above, as compared to a net loss of $101.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and a net loss of $15.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA loss was $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, versus an adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Cash operating expenses were $36.9 million and $9.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA and cash operating expense, non-GAAP measures, is provided in the attached financial tables.

Operational and Financial Outlook

The Company expects continued strong momentum in 2026 and is raising its revenue target for the full year to at least $390 million, which represents a 670% increase from 2025 results. Growth is expected to be broad based across Ondas' product portfolio and is supported by $457 million in backlog. Ondas' strategic growth program remains active, and the Company expects to execute additional acquisitions in 2026 which would result in additional revenue.

The Company expects adjusted EBITDA losses to remain elevated in 2Q 2026 though this is expected to represent the likely peak in adjusted EBITDA losses with improvement throughout the year driven by increased revenues and gross profits and operational scale via leveraging of the Ondas operating platform across its broad platform. The elevated losses in the first half of 2026 represent a front-loading of expenses ahead of the significant revenue ramp expected in H2 2026 and beyond. The Company views these expenses as running in front of revenue, necessary to support growth, and as prudent and limited in scope in relation to the significant opportunity ahead.

While the Company achieved adjusted EBITDA profitability at the Product Company level in the first quarter of 2026, Ondas still expects that could fluctuate over the short term. The Company is pulling forward its expectation for OAS adjusted EBITDA profitability, now expecting to achieve that result by 1Q 2027 versus the prior expectation of 3Q 2027. Ondas maintains its expectation for company-wide adjusted EBITDA profitability by Q1 2028.

Non-GAAP Measures

As required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), we provide a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These reconciliations are set forth in the tables below.

We believe that adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") is a useful supplemental measure for evaluating our operating performance and period to period trends because it eliminates the impact of items that primarily reflect our capital structure, tax position, non-cash accounting charges, acquisition-related transaction costs, and other items that management does not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income (loss) and other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA removes the effects of interest and financing-related items, depreciation and amortization, income taxes, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses, and other non-operating gains and losses. Management believes that excluding these items enhances comparability across periods and facilitates analysis of underlying operating trends. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently, and therefore our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.

Cash Operating Expense is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents total operating expenses excluding depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, and stock-based compensation. The most directly comparable GAAP measure to Cash Operating Expense is total operating expenses. Management believes Cash Operating Expense provides useful supplemental information by isolating recurring, cash-based operating costs and facilitating meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Management uses this measure for internal cost management, budgeting, and liquidity planning, and to evaluate operating trends exclusive of non-cash accounting charges. Cash Operating Expense should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, total operating expenses prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Operating Expense, together with GAAP results, in making operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company's ongoing performance.

Ondas reported Q1 2026 revenue of $50.1 million and net income of $361.2 million. According to Ondas, revenue rose 1,065% year-over-year, while net income was driven largely by non-cash gains related to warrant revaluation and deconsolidation of Ondas Networks.

Why did Ondas (ONDS) raise its full-year 2026 revenue forecast to $390 million?

Ondas increased its 2026 revenue target to at least $390 million, about 670% above 2025 results. According to Ondas, the higher outlook is supported by strong demand for autonomous and counter-UAS systems, significant backlog growth, and contributions from recently acquired defense and ISR businesses.

Ondas reported pro forma backlog of $457 million at March 31, 2026, up from $68.3 million at year-end 2025. According to Ondas, this 570% increase reflects strong order activity and acquisitions, providing greater revenue visibility and supporting its raised 2026 guidance.

What is the significance of Ondas (ONDS) holding $1.48 billion in cash after Q1 2026?

Ondas ended Q1 2026 with $1.48 billion in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments. According to Ondas, this balance, boosted by a roughly $1 billion January 2026 offering, supports organic growth, acquisitions and its Core + Strategic Growth Program without near-term liquidity pressure.

How did acquisitions like Mistral and World View impact Ondas (ONDS) outlook?

Acquisitions of Mistral and World View expanded Ondas into loitering munitions and stratospheric ISR platforms. According to Ondas, these deals enhance its U.S. prime contractor position, add long-term program visibility, and accelerate its multi-domain ISR roadmap, supporting higher growth expectations for 2026 and beyond.

What do Ondas (ONDS) Q1 2026 profitability metrics indicate for shareholders?

Ondas posted a Q1 2026 adjusted EBITDA loss of $10.9 million, while product companies were adjusted EBITDA positive.
