Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jan 28 | Defense drone approval | Positive | +0.1% | Optimus drone added to DCMA Blue List, enabling rapid federal procurement. |
| Jan 27 | UXS showcase event | Positive | +9.9% | Private Tallinn event highlighting operationally proven unmanned systems and tech. |
| Jan 16 | Investor Day targets | Positive | -5.2% | Raised 2026 revenue target and strong preliminary 2025 revenue and backlog. |
| Jan 12 | Offering closing | Negative | -3.6% | Closed ~$1B registered direct offering with shares and long-dated warrants. |
| Jan 09 | Offering pricing | Negative | -2.3% | Priced $1B stock and warrant sale at a premium to market for funding. |
Recent news often drew positive or mild reactions, but capital raises and even a bullish Investor Day have seen selling, indicating occasional negative reactions to fundamentally positive updates.
Over the past month, ONDS has issued several material updates. On Jan 9 and Jan 12, it priced and closed a $1B stock-and-warrant offering, followed by an Investor Day on Jan 16 that raised the 2026 revenue target to $170–$180M. Subsequent events, including a UXS showcase in Tallinn on Jan 27 and DCMA Blue List approval on Jan 28, highlighted operational and regulatory progress. Today’s defense-and-security rebranding and Airshow launch extend this strategic shift toward defense-tech and autonomous systems.
Regulatory & Risk Context
The company has an effective Form S-3ASR filed on 2025-09-09, allowing it to issue various securities, with at least 9 prospectus supplements filed so far. This indicates established access to capital markets alongside its ongoing strategic expansion.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock moved -8.1% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite the strategic defense-and-security launch would fit a pattern where even constructive news sometimes met selling, as seen after the Jan 16 Investor Day. Investors may reassess earlier capital raises and warrant structures alongside this rebranding push. If the decline deepened, it would highlight sensitivity to execution risk around scaling autonomous defense solutions, despite prior positive responses to operational milestones.

Company to unveil its rebranding and offering for Defense and Security markets, its 2026 roadmap, and offering for an autonomous system of combat-proven systems unified under one operational domain
At the Airshow, Ondas will present its concept and multi layered solution addressing one of the most complicated challenges of modern defense: protecting critical assets from threats operating at the low-altitude and ground domains.
WEST PALM BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / January 30, 2026 / Ondas Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence through its Ondas Autonomous Systems (OAS) business unit and private wireless solutions through Ondas Networks, today announced it will formally launch its new Ondas Defense and Security offering at the Singapore Airshow 2026, marking a major milestone in the Company's strategic evolution and global expansion across defense, homeland security, and public safety markets. The launch represents a key step in Ondas' long-term roadmap and includes refreshed branding, a forward-looking 2026 product and technology roadmap, and a comprehensive solution portfolio designed to address the world's most complex and dynamic security threats. At the Singapore Airshow, Ondas will present its vision for governing low-altitude airspace and the ground beneath it as a single autonomous operational domain, turning previously disconnected systems into a coordinated, autonomous force.

"Modern threats are no longer confined to air or ground - they move seamlessly between domains, across cities, borders, and battlefields," said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. "Our launch at the Singapore Airshow reflects Ondas' evolution into a defense-tech and security company purpose-built for this reality, delivering combat-proven, multi-domain, and multi-layered autonomous capabilities through a unified operational architecture."
"Ondas Defense and Security is about simplifying complexity while increasing control," said Oshri Lugassy, Co-CEO of Ondas Autonomous Systems. "By integrating robotics platforms, sensors, and effectors under one autonomous command-and-control layer, we enable defense and security organizations to detect, decide, and act faster - with fewer operators, lower operational footprint, and higher mission effectiveness."
Ondas Defense and Security vision is designed to overcome the limitations of legacy, siloed defense systems that rely on disconnected sensors, manual coordination, and reactive responses. The Company's solutions integrate autonomous ISR, counter-UAS, aerial and ground unmanned systems, and decision-support technologies into a software-defined, modular, and scalable system-of-systems. This unified approach enables persistent, adaptive, and proportionate responses to evolving threats across diverse and contested environments.
At the Singapore Airshow, Ondas will showcase its unified and autonomous command-and-control layer, which connects fixed and mobile platforms from low-altitude aerial systems to unmanned ground systems into a single coordinated system. This operational layer delivers accurate real-time situational awareness, autonomous response capabilities, and closed-loop detect-to-defeat workflows, supporting missions ranging from critical infrastructure protection and border security to forward-deployed military operations.
The launch also aligns with Ondas' broader strategic trajectory, as reflected in recent Company updates, which emphasize expanding defense and security offerings, strengthening global partnerships, and scaling deployment of mission-ready autonomous systems. Ondas believes the convergence of robotics, AI, and autonomous command-and-control represents a foundational shift in how nations and organizations secure increasingly complex operational environments.
With its presence at the Singapore Airshow, Ondas reinforces its commitment to global defense and security markets and positions Ondas as a trusted Defense and Security provider of autonomous, multi-layered, and combat-proven solutions designed to meet the demands of modern warfare, homeland security, and public safety operations.
