Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Duke Robotics Corp. reported first quarter 2026 results showing no revenue and a net loss of $921,000, compared with a $279,000 loss a year earlier. Loss per share was $0.41 versus $0.13, reflecting higher operating and financing expenses.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $510,000 as of March 31, 2026, with total assets of $1.1 million and a stockholders’ deficit of $573,000. Subsequent to quarter end, the company completed an underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $9.2 million, which it believes, together with expected receipts from existing agreements, can fund operations well into the second half of 2027.

Operationally, Duke highlighted expansion of its Israel Electric Corporation insulator-cleaning drone contract, expected to generate over $1 million in 2026 revenue, and the launch of its AEROTRACE AI-powered aerial intelligence platform. The company also continues advancing its Bird of Prey defense drone collaboration with Elbit Systems and progressing grid-inspection initiatives, including a pending commercial push in Greece.

Positive

  • Completed an underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $9.2 million after quarter end, which the company believes, together with projected receipts, can fund operations well into the second half of 2027.
  • Expanded its commercial relationship with Israel Electric Corporation via a new purchase order expected to generate over $1 million of 2026 revenue, while launching the AEROTRACE AI-powered aerial intelligence platform.

Negative

  • Reported zero revenue for Q1 2026 and a net loss of $921,000, more than triple the prior-year loss of $279,000, with loss per share widening to $0.41.
  • Balance sheet at March 31, 2026 showed total liabilities of $1.69 million and a stockholders’ deficit of $573,000, including a sizable $708,000 stock purchase warrants liability.

Insights

$9.2M raise reshapes liquidity, but business remains pre-revenue and loss-making.

Duke Robotics ended Q1 2026 with no revenue and a net loss of $921,000, while balance sheet data show a stockholders’ deficit of $573,000. Before the capital raise, cash and restricted cash were only $510,000, underscoring tight liquidity.

The underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of about $9.2 million, completed in May 2026 alongside a Nasdaq uplisting, is therefore significant relative to the company’s $1.1 million in assets at quarter end. Management states this cash, plus projected receipts, should support operations well into the second half of 2027, reducing near-term financing pressure.

Strategically, the expanded Israel Electric Corporation purchase order, expected to generate over $1 million in 2026 revenue, and the launch of the AEROTRACE platform provide early commercial anchors for both utility and defense offerings. Actual impact will depend on converting these opportunities into recurring revenue, as the quarter still showed zero revenue and growing losses.

underwritten public offering financial
"Subsequent to quarter end, on May 18, 2026, the Company completed an underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $9.2 million."
An underwritten public offering is when a company sells new shares of its stock to the public with the help of a financial firm, called an underwriter. The underwriter agrees to buy all the shares upfront, reducing the company's risk, and then sells them to investors. This process helps companies raise money quickly and confidently from a wide range of buyers.
stock purchase warrants liability financial
"Stock purchase warrants liability | | | 708 | | | | 189 |"
reverse stock split financial
"All share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 1-for-25 reverse stock split effected on March 6, 2026."
A reverse stock split is when a company reduces the number of its shares outstanding, making each share more valuable. For example, if you own 100 shares worth $1 each, a 1-for-10 reverse split would turn your 100 shares into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to boost their stock price and appear more stable to investors.
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains forward-looking statements."
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
Regulation FD Disclosure regulatory
"Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure."
Regulation FD disclosure requires public companies to share important, market-moving information with everyone at the same time instead of tipping off analysts or large investors first. Think of it as making sure all players on a field hear the same announcement simultaneously; that fairness helps investors trust that stock prices reflect the same information and reduces the risk of sudden, unfair trading advantages or regulatory penalties for selective leaks.
Nasdaq Capital Market financial
"completed approximately $9.2 Million Underwritten Public Offering and Uplisting on the Nasdaq Capital Market"
The Nasdaq Capital Market is a platform where smaller, emerging companies can list their shares for trading by investors. It provides these companies with access to funding and visibility, helping them grow, much like a local marketplace where new vendors can introduce their products to potential customers. For investors, it offers opportunities to discover early-stage companies with growth potential.

Duke Robotics Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

 

Expansion of Israel Electric Corporation IC Drone Contract Expected to Generate Over $1 Million in 2026 Revenue

 

Launch of AEROTRACE™ AI-Powered Aerial Intelligence Platform; Bird of Prey Defense Drone Collaboration with Elbit Continues to Advance as Global Defense Spending on Drone Tech Rises

 

Subsequent to Quarter End, Company Completed Approximately $9.2 Million Underwritten Public Offering and Uplisting on the Nasdaq Capital Market

 

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL, May 20, 2026 — Duke Robotics Corp. (Nasdaq: DUKR; DUKRW) (“Duke Robotics” or the “Company”), a leader in advanced robotics and drone-based solutions for civilian and defense markets, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided a corporate update.

 

Yossef Balucka, Chief Executive Officer of Duke Robotics, commented: “The first quarter of 2026 positioned Duke Robotics at what we believe is a clear inflection point for the Company. We now have three commercially validated platforms: our Insulator Cleaning (“IC”) Drone service for high-voltage utility insulators, our AEROTRACE™ AI-powered aerial intelligence solution, and the Bird of Prey stabilized weapons drone system, marketed by Elbit Systems Land Ltd. (“Elbit”). During the quarter we expanded our commercial relationship with the Israel Electric Corporation (“IEC”), with a new purchase order which is expected to generate over a million U.S. dollars of revenue for Duke Robotics during 2026. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we completed our underwritten public offering and uplisted to the Nasdaq Capital Market, which we believe provides the Company with the capital base required to accelerate our business plan.”

 

Recent Business Highlights

 

Launch of AEROTRACE™: AI-Powered Aerial Intelligence Platform. In February 2026, the Company launched AEROTRACE, an AI-powered aerial monitoring and intelligence solution for infrastructure operators. AEROTRACE is designed to support utilities and industrial operators in identifying asset conditions, prioritizing maintenance activities, and improving decision-making. The Company believes AEROTRACE represents a potentially low-friction commercial entry point with utility customers; it can be sold independently of the IC Drone system or together with it, and is designed to support a shift in utility maintenance practices from reactive to proactive, condition-based servicing. AEROTRACE is intended to generate a recurring, software-style revenue stream that the Company believes can complement its IC Drone service business.

 

 

 

 

Expansion of IEC Contract: Expected to Generate Over $1 Million in Revenue During 2026. In March 2026, the Company received a new purchase order from the IEC, Israel’s governmental and largest electricity supplier, expanding the scope of the IC Drone services provided by the Company for the cleaning and maintenance of high-voltage transmission infrastructure. The new order extends the existing agreement and increases the scale of services performed using the Company’s IC Drone system. The purchase order is expected to generate revenue of over a million U.S. dollars for Duke Robotics during 2026, representing an increase compared to the Company’s previous service activity with IEC.

 

Greek Market. In January 2026, Duke Robotics, through its wholly owned Greek subsidiary Duke Robotics Hellas, received operational authorization from the Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority for IC Drone operations in Greece.

 

Strategic Financing and Subsequent Uplisting to Nasdaq. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company completed an underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $9.2 million and listed its common stock and warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “DUKR” and “DUKRW.” The Company believes the financing provides significant funding to execute on commercial opportunities and accelerate its business plan with respect to both its civilian and defense business lines.

 

Defense Segment: Bird of Prey Battle-Tested and Active Co-Marketing with Elbit. Through its collaboration with Elbit, the Bird of Prey stabilized weapons drone system has been confirmed in operational use by the Israel Defense Forces, with the system featured in August 2025 in an Israeli in-depth news report on advanced weaponized drone combat capabilities. The Company believes the confirmed operational deployment by the IDF provides important market validation in defense markets and positions the Bird of Prey for further international interest. The Company has previously reported initial royalty revenues from sales of the Bird of Prey system. The Company has active business development efforts across several geographies in coordination with Elbit under the parties’ co-marketing arrangement, against a backdrop of accelerating global interest in drone-based combat systems amid recent conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine.

 

U.S. Market Readiness Activities. As previously disclosed in December 2025, Duke Robotics is working to identify and evaluate NDAA-compliant drone systems and certified U.S. drone operators as potential platforms for its IC Drone technology.

 

Financial results for three months ended March 31, 2026

 

Revenues: The Company did not record revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026, consistent with the same period in 2025, reflecting the seasonal nature of the IC Drone service for the IEC, the cleaning season for which typically commences in the second quarter of each year. Cost of revenues for the period was $33,000, compared to $8,000 for the same period in 2025, primarily reflecting infrastructure and operational readiness costs in advance of the 2026 cleaning season.

 

Research and development (R&D) expenses were $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $22,000 for the same period in 2025.

 

2

 

 

General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $451,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $258,000 for the same period in 2025. The increase primarily reflects higher share-based compensation associated with stock option grants made during the quarter, increased professional fees related to the Company’s uplisting preparation, and increased personnel-related costs supporting the Company’s growth initiatives.

 

Operating loss was $513,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $288,000 for the same period in 2025.

 

Financing expenses, net, were $408,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to financing income, net, of $9,000 for the same period in 2025, primarily reflecting non-cash changes in the fair value of the Company’s warrant liability.

 

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $921,000, or $(0.41) per share, compared to a net loss of $279,000, or $(0.13) per share, for the same period in 2025. Per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 25-for-1 reverse stock split effected on March 6, 2026.

 

Balance Sheet Highlights

 

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $510,000 as of March 31, 2026, compared to $750,000 as of December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, trade receivables totaled $16,000. Subsequent to quarter end, on May 18, 2026, the Company completed an underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $9.2 million. Following the offering, the Company believes its cash resources, together with projected receipts from existing commercial agreements, are sufficient to support operations well into the second half of 2027.
