Highway Holdings (Nasdaq: HIHO) closed a $7.0 million investment from David Lazar on November 4, 2026, alongside a planned legacy-business spin-off.
The company sold two series of convertible preferred shares for $3.5 million each. Conversion requires shareholder approval; full conversion would give Lazar approximately 95% of outstanding common shares on a fully diluted basis. The company plans a $2.0 million cash dividend for legacy shareholders promptly after closing.
Highway Holdings intends to transfer its existing operations to a new British Virgin Islands subsidiary and distribute its shares pro rata to eligible legacy holders, excluding the preferred shares and shares converted from them. It expects completion within 365 days after closing. An independent-director committee will oversee the reorganization, dividend and related compensation payments. Lazar became CEO following closing, replacing Roland W. Kohl.

Participation did not represent a research award, funded collaboration, procurement commitment or selection for funding under QuantumCT’s Phase 3 process.
Quantum Cyber (QUCY) appointed retired Major General Alberto C. Rosende to its Board of Directors, with the appointment effective immediately.
The company plans to draw on his operational experience to help complete and commission its Bridgeport, Connecticut, manufacturing facility and strengthen supplies of materials, components and sub-assemblies for autonomous drone production. These responsibilities support its stated shift toward direct U.S.-based manufacturing. Rosende served a 37-year Army career, ending as Commanding General of the 63rd Readiness Division, and has more than three decades of civilian management and consulting experience in electronic payments.
Draganfly (DPRO) announced a US$10 million investment from Unusual Machines and a U.S. investment fund to support its development and working capital. Each investor is investing $5 million. Draganfly intends to accelerate advanced strategic capabilities and meet product demand.
ZenaTech (ZENA) has begun building a mobile agricultural drone operations trailer, with testing planned in the coming months. The trailer and its IQ Octo drone remain at prototype stages. ZenaTech aims to increase service capacity and lower operating costs, with future adaptations for surveying and inspections.
Ondas (ONDS) secured over $270 million in orders since June 30, expanding backlog and revenue visibility into 2027. Quantum Cyber (QUCY) filed an amended report supplying historical and pro forma financial information for its completed acquisition of a Bridgeport manufacturing facility and Arcade's associated operating business.
Quantum Cyber (QUCY) filed audited Arcade financial statements and acquisition pro forma information for its $4.18 million cash purchase.
The amendment covers the completed purchase by subsidiary Quantum Drones of a Bridgeport manufacturing facility and the businesses of Arcade Technology and Arcade Realty. Audited combined statements cover 2024 and 2025 and carry an unqualified Haskell & White report with no going-concern qualification. Reviewed but unaudited interim statements cover the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2026; the acquisition pro forma information is also unaudited.
The price comprises $900,000 for business assets, $980,000 for inventory and $2.3 million for real property, before closing prorations. The preliminary allocation records no goodwill. Quantum Cyber used cash on hand, incurred no acquisition debt and assumed no acquired-business liabilities. Quantum Drones signed three-year employment agreements with former Arcade executives Steven Pepe and William Rhone at closing.
Quantum Cyber (QUCY) narrowed its defense-technology focus to three product pillars and released an updated investor presentation on September 25, 2026. The pillars are one-way attack drones and interceptors, a quantum antenna for navigation, communications and power, and MAHCA software for coordinating autonomous platforms. An exclusive license for the antenna technology was executed with Project LightShift on June 11, 2026.
Maritime programs and other exploratory work have been de-emphasized. Quantum Cyber acquired an approximately 50,000-square-foot facility in Bridgeport, Connecticut, on July 16, 2026. An 80-unit 3D-printing drone production farm there became operational on August 31. The company targets annual capacity of 100,000 drones; that figure is a management projection, not current capacity.
Quantum Cyber (QUCY) has acquired a Lambda Hyperplane 8-A100 AI compute cluster, powered by eight NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPUs, to serve as the in-house compute backbone for its Swarm Operating System and Quantum Station battlefield command-and-control platform.
The cluster is being installed at the company’s wholly owned manufacturing facility in Bridgeport, Connecticut, co-locating AI infrastructure with production of its autonomous drone platforms. Quantum Cyber views this move as a transition from an integrator of licensed autonomy to an AI-native, vertically integrated autonomous defense manufacturer controlling compute, manufacturing, and command layers under U.S. jurisdiction.
The system is already used to train models for fully autonomous, dual-domain target detection and autolock, supports a simulation and synthetic-data pipeline that reduces live test flying, and is intended to enable single-operator swarm-level command across air, land, and sea platforms via Quantum Station.
Quantum Cyber (QUCY) has launched a call for qualified foundries, factories, contract manufacturers, and applied‑R&D organizations to develop the first working prototype of its exclusively licensed quantum‑photonic antenna front-end for defense and national-security UAS communications.
