Ondas Networks Inc.
Overview
Ondas Networks provides mission-critical wireless connectivity solutions to users relying on private networks, enabling Industrial Internet applications and services, which we refer to as the Mission-Critical Internet of Things (“MC-IoT”). MC-IoT applications typically operate at the edge of large industrial networks and require secure, reliable, real-time connectivity for operational systems that must function in challenging environments where downtime, latency, or compromised communications can create safety and security risks.
These requirements are present across major critical infrastructure markets, including rail, electric utilities, oil and gas, public safety, government, and other industrial applications where operators must collect, transmit, and act on data quickly and reliably over wide geographic areas using secure network infrastructure.
Standards Leadership and Technology Foundation
Ondas Networks’ intellectual property has been adopted by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (“IEEE”) and forms the core of the IEEE 802.16 standard. Because standards-based communications solutions are often preferred by mission-critical customers and ecosystem partners, Ondas Networks maintains a leadership role in the evolution and adoption of IEEE 802.16 and related industrial wireless networking frameworks.
Product Platform
Ondas Networks designs, develops, manufactures, sells, and supports FullMAX, our patented software-defined radio (“SDR”) platform for secure, private, wide-area broadband networks. Customers deploy FullMAX to upgrade and expand legacy wide-area network infrastructure, enabling significantly increased throughput and supporting modern Internet-Protocol-based communications for next-generation industrial operating systems and edge applications.
Ondas Networks has historically targeted North American freight rail operators as an early adoption market for FullMAX. The rail sector has operated legacy narrowband systems with limited data capacity that constrain the deployment of modern train control, safety systems, and operational intelligence applications. Industry organizations, including the Association of American Railroads (“AAR”) and related industry bodies, have adopted IEEE 802.16 as a standards foundation for future private wireless networks.
Market Drivers
We believe industrial and critical infrastructure markets are at an inflection point as legacy analog and serial communications protocols increasingly fail to meet modern requirements for security, bandwidth, and real-time operational decision-making. FullMAX is intended to serve as an upgrade pathway that improves network performance and security while enabling the adoption of more data-intensive, software-driven operational systems across wide field areas.

Our Business Model
OAS
OAS markets aerial solutions based on its Optimus System™ and Iron Drone Raider™ platforms via direct sales to enterprises and government customers. Additionally, OAS utilizes channel marketing strategies, building a network of partners and agents to distribute our solutions. We focus on identifying and qualifying large, sophisticated customers with active drone programs who have the ability and intent to expand those programs and eventually deploy fleets of automated drones across their portfolio of assets. Our unique value proposition is based on our core strategic capability to provide holistic solutions, being a trusted one-stop-shop for major entities, and de-risking innovative complex drone implementation processes.
After initial customer qualification, contracting and the receipt of a purchase order, we ship and install our platforms and solutions on the customer premises. Via American Robotics and Airobotics staff, we are planning for deployments and providing customers with complete support for all stages of implementation. Our field service personnel remain on location for a short period of time to ensure the programmed automated drone operations are meeting customer and regulatory requirements and implemented successfully on-prem, on-time and on-budget.
We offer our solutions in several business models designated to allow the required flexibility and benefits for our customers and creating recurring revenues and organic growth within our accounts:
| ● | Direct Sales & Service - Our Optimus System™ and Iron Drone Raider™ platforms can be purchased and be owned and operated by our end users or resellers via partnerships or joint ventures with third party drone services providers. These types of agreements typically include arrangements for ongoing services including training and maintenance. System purchases can be preferred by certain public safety and homeland security customers directly or via distribution through value-added resellers and partners. |
| ● | Drone Infrastructure and Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) – This model is the typical agreement we have with our customers. Our Optimus System™ based solutions can be provided under a DaaS agreement where we bundle hardware, software, operations, and maintenance into one annual subscription fee. We install the Optimus Systems as a fixed aerial infrastructure on premises or areas serving one or multiple customers on a flexible consumption business model allowing end users to procure aerial and data services over the drone network in the area. This model is applicable in two major scenarios: |
| o | Owner/Operator Model – For example, an agreement with a construction site owner/operator as the central user of the services with additional aerial data services to subcontractors and tenants of the construction site. The site owner/operator will use the drone infrastructure for progress remote monitoring and planed-vs-built applications, and in addition will allow more services to the site’s tenants and sub-contractors such as monitoring and inspection and data collection use cases.

We continue to develop our value-added reseller relationships for the development of new types of wireless connectivity for the North American Rail market as well as selected global markets in both Europe and Asia.
In executing our go-to-market strategy, we intend to monetize our software-based intellectual property and grow revenue and cash flow with embedded FullMAX software sales, Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) arrangements, IP royalties based on Ondas Networks software and through additional services provided to customers and ecosystem partners. Customers deploy our connectivity and Fog-computing platform in private networks that are designed for lifetimes of 10 – 15 years or even longer. Our FullMAX platform is software-defined and offers customers flexibility to expand capacity and evolve network utilization. Similarly, our ecosystem partners often integrate our FullMAX software and wireless capability into their own long-lived equipment and systems which their customers purchase and deploy. As such, we believe our software solutions provide ongoing revenue opportunities related to both connectivity value and edge computing capability. Customers and ecosystem partners will require ongoing FullMAX system and security enhancements and for us to design additional features which create opportunities for additional, recurring revenue and profit streams. Our monetization strategies include:
Systems sales: Our FullMAX deployments are typically large, mission-critical wide-area networks deployed and privately operated by our industrial and government customers. These end-to-end system deployments involve sales consisting of both base stations and edge radio end points with embedded FullMAX software and network management software and tools.
Software and hardware maintenance agreements: Our customers contract with us for extended software and hardware maintenance which provide them with critical ongoing support for their installed network. These contracts provide revenue to us in the year following an initial installation. Software maintenance licenses entitle the customer to ongoing software and security upgrades as well as enabling the provision of additional system features. Similarly, hardware maintenance programs provide customers with extended equipment warranty terms for an installed network.
These arrangements allow our customers to continue to maintain a modern, flexible and upgradeable network over a long period of time. These agreements may extend for multiple years given the long average life of the installed and growing network.
Licensing / Royalties: In certain system deployments, our ecosystem partners may choose to embed FullMAX software into their own hardware and software platforms providing us with an ongoing per device multi-year revenue stream. Licensing is an effective way for an ecosystem partner to jumpstart customer activity. Alternatively, a partner may choose to develop software based on our intellectual property generating royalty revenue.
Other Services: We provide ancillary services directly related to the sale of our wireless communications products which include wireless network design, systems engineering, radio frequency planning, software configuration, product training, installation, and onsite support. Furthermore, we also provide engineering and product development services to ecosystem partners who are interested in integrating their intelligent equipment with our FullMAX SDR platform and need our expertise to do so.

Ondas Networks
Ondas Networks has developed a next-generation radio platform specifically to meet the evolving data needs of large industrial and government customers and markets. These markets are differentiated from consumer markets in that the customers’ assets are dispersed over very wide and remote geographies with specific challenges to installation, maintenance, and upgrades. These challenges led us to design a new type of software-based radio platform capable of supporting a long useful life to the network hardware. Our software defined radio (“SDR”) architecture allows us to customize almost any aspect of the air interface protocol, the key components of which are patented and have been incorporated into new IEEE wireless standards. The ability to constantly improve customer networks and hosted software applications with flexible, over-the-air software upgrade helps create customer loyalty.
Our FullMAX SDR platform is designed to enable highly secure and reliable industrial-grade connectivity for truly mission-critical applications. An end-to-end FullMAX network consists of connected wireless base stations, fixed and mobile edge radios and supporting technology all enabled by critical software developed and owned by Ondas Networks. The Fog-computing capability integrated in our end-to-end FullMAX SDR platform, primarily through docker container technology, is valued by our customers and ecosystem partners as they seek to leverage the value of MC-IoT applications for improved safety, efficiency, and profitability. Our IEEE 802.16t compliant equipment is designed to optimize the performance of unused or underutilized VHF / UHF low frequencies licensed radio spectrum and narrower channels. We do this through various patented software algorithms including via “spectrum harvesting” techniques which aggregate narrowband channels to create increased broadband network capacity. Our channel aggregation algorithms include the ability to aggregate hard to utilize, non-contiguous narrowband channels and are a hallmark feature of a FullMAX broadband system.

The Market for Our Products and Services
OAS
The total addressable market (“TAM”) of OAS is measured at over $100 billion in size according to management estimates and independent third-party research. The TAM comprises the potential value of Ondas’ Optimus System in the global defense and civil UAV market and in the drone services market and the addressable market of the Iron-Drone Raider system in the Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) markets.
Ondas competes in the large drone markets which was valued by a study by Grand View Research at $83.7 billion in 2025 and forecasted to grow further at a compound annual growth rate of 14% reaching $160.6 billion by 2030. In addition, Ondas provides drone services including drone data and data analytics based on multiple various sensors, in addition to maintenance, repair and operational service. According to Fortune Business Insights, drone market services is valued at $32.1 billion in 2025 and projected to grow to $213.9 billion by 2032. In the US, the FAA anticipates that the growth rate in the commercial drone sector will remain high over the next few years. This is primarily driven by the regulatory clarity that Part 107 rules continue to provide to industry. This is further supported by the Operations Over People final rule, published on December 28, 2020, which is the latest incremental step towards further integration of small drones into the national airspace. Ondas has secured a key position within this market, holding the first FAA Airworthiness Type Certificate, allowing it to apply to fly its drones in complex populated environments.
In addition to the Optimus System and its related drone services, Ondas also competes in the C-UAS market providing the Iron-Drone Raider system for counter drone kinetic interception. The growing C-UAS technology market has been valued at $3.1 billion in a recent study published by Grand View Research in 2025 and is forecasted to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 27.2% to $10.6 billion by 2030. We believe these studies underestimate the potential market size, because they don’t fully consider the potential effect of security vulnerabilities on the value of the activities the C-UAS equipment protects and enables, in sensitive locations such as major sporting events, and the protection of industrial assets such as in the energy and utility sectors. Notably, although the North American C-UAS marketplace is the largest by revenue, twelve other regions of the world are also active in C-UAS. High-profile events in other countries involving UAS such as the war in Ukraine and Israel. Recent research and reports from 2024 onwards highlight a significant increase in unauthorized drone activities near airports, raising concerns about aviation safety and security. According to the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) over 100 reports of drone sightings were received, near airports each month. Between November 2014 and December 2024, there were 18,891 reported drone sightings, averaging nearly 155 per month. In the first four months of 2024 alone, the FAA recorded 326 drone-related incidents near aircraft and airports, underscoring the escalating security risks.
Ondas Networks
We have targeted the North American rail operators for the initial adoption of our FullMAX platform. These rail operators currently operate legacy communications systems utilizing serial-based narrowband wireless technologies for voice and data communications. These legacy wireless networks have limited data capacity and are unable to support the adoption of new, intelligent train control and management systems. In addition to data capacity challenges, rail operators need to reliably cover the vast and often remotely located rail track and related infrastructure which extends nationwide. The rail operators require a next-generation, robust system with significantly increased data throughput capacity and flexibility to adopt new applications. We believe a transition to integrated Fog-computing wireless communications systems will enable the rail operators to drive more intelligence to the edge of their operating environments enabling real time automation and better operator control of many critical operating systems related to train control, crossing safety, train and track integrity and drone operations. Network upgrades will support enhanced safety, improved efficiency, and increased profitability of train operations.
11
The North American Rail Network is vast in scale, consisting of 180,000 miles of track, 30,000 locomotives, and 1.6 million railcars. Within this large footprint there are 250,000 at grade highway crossings, with at least 65,000 of the crossings equipped with electronic systems today, a number which is expected to increase in the coming years. Applications that improve grade crossing safety are enabled by our FullMax platform. The Class I railroads currently operate four separate private wireless networks in support of train operations. Those networks are deployed using spectrum in the 160 MHz, 220 MHz, 450 MHz and 900 MHz bands. We believe a significant portion of the communications infrastructure has been in operation for more than 20 years and now requires a technological upgrade to support new applications and increased capacity requirements. Our FullMAX MC-IoT platform offers an excellent migration path for these applications. The Class I Railroads value the ability of our frequency agnostic SDR architecture to enable a substantial data capacity increase utilizing the railroad’s existing wireless infrastructure and dedicated FCC licensed radio frequencies, as well as the flexibility to adapt to and take advantage of future changes in spectrum availability, as well as future business and operational requirements. Based upon management estimates, we believe the addressable market for the four private North American Railroad networks is approximately $1.3 billion.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, two customers accounted for approximately $27.8 million and $5.4 million of our revenue or approximately 55% and 11%, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2024, three customers accounted for approximately $3.8 million, $1.9 million, and $745 thousand of our revenue or approximately 52%, 26%, and 10%, respectively. The loss of the 2025 customers or a decrease in the business conducted with such customers could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Competition
OAS
We compete with other drone OEMs providing a variety of solutions for inspection, security, asset tracking and other applications. We compete on many dimensions with system performance being differentiated by the level of autonomous operation, ease of use, reliability, safety, and government regulations. Further, leading automated data solution providers must provide diverse payload capabilities for data collection, along with robust, advanced analytics programs that are specific for each industry served.
13
Ondas Networks
We compete with alternatives to wireless technology, public cellular data networks and private wireless networking products from other manufacturers. We believe that each of these competing solutions has core weaknesses when compared to FullMAX, as described below.
Public cellular data networks:
| ● | Public networks are more vulnerable to cyber security attacks from anywhere in the world including denial of service attacks; private networks can operate independent of the public internet. |
| ● | Public networks are more susceptible to prolonged outages during man-made and natural disasters (e.g. 9/11, Hurricane Sandy, etc.), exactly when utilities and mission critical entities require the greatest reliability. |
| ● | Public networks are typically designed for population coverage rather than the geographic areas required by critical infrastructure providers, which often include remote locations. |
| ● | Public networks are by definition oversubscribed, shared networks without the necessary prioritization service to support mission critical applications. |
| ● | Public networks typically use shared infrastructure including tower sites and long-haul fiber connections resulting in vulnerabilities at many points. |
| ● | Public networks are designed to support high capacity downloading and streaming applications with limited upload bandwidth available. Industrial networks typically require the reverse traffic flow, often uploading data from a large number of remote locations. |
Other private wireless products:
| ● | Unlicensed Point to Multipoint Wireless (e.g., Wi-Fi) — This equipment is very inexpensive to purchase but is subject to interference, has many security vulnerabilities, uses a contention-based protocol and transmits only over short range. Deploying Wi-Fi over wide areas is cost prohibitive. |
| ● | Private Licensed Narrowband Wireless Radios — These networks can provide good coverage and range but are typically too slow and lack sufficient bandwidth to support new applications and the increased number of data connections required. |
Alternate technologies:
| ● | Satellite Technologies — These technologies provide good coverage, but throughput is limited, and latency is too high to support mission-critical applications for our customers. These technologies can be very costly as compared to our products and systems. |
| ● | Low-Power Wide Area Networks (LP-WANs) — LP-WAN solutions such as LoRa and NB-IoT are architected with lower power, the purpose of which is to make these typically sensor-based networks lower-cost solutions. The low powered equipment means these systems have lower throughput and higher latency and are not reliable for mission-critical applications that require both monitoring and control functions. |
Governmental Regulations
Our operations are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations including: (i) authorization from the FCC and other global communications regulators for operation in various licensed frequency bands; (ii) FAA and other global Civil Aviation Authority regulations and approvals unique to the operation of commercial or industrial drones; (iii) customers’ licenses from the FCC; (iv) export controls and authorizations from the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) under International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) for defense articles, or Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) for dual use items; (v) licensing, permitting and inspection requirements applicable to contractors, electricians and engineers; (vi) regulations relating to worker safety and environmental protection; (vii) permitting and inspection requirements applicable to construction projects; (viii) wage and hour regulations; (ix) regulations relating to transportation of equipment and materials, including licensing and permitting requirements; (x) building and electrical codes; and (xi) special bidding, procurement and other requirements on government projects.
14
We believe we have the licenses materially required to conduct our operations, and we are in substantial compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. The operation of our manufactured products by our customers (network providers and service providers) in the U.S. or in foreign jurisdictions in a manner not in compliance with local law could result in fines, business disruption, or harm to our reputation. The changes to regulatory and technological requirements may also alter our product offerings, impacting our market share and business. Failure to comply with applicable regulations could result in substantial fines or revocation of our operating licenses or could give rise to termination or cancellation rights under our contracts or disqualify us from future bidding opportunities.
Certain Ondas subsidiaries located in or doing business in foreign jurisdictions are governed by export controls regulated by third countries for the manufacture, sale or export if its systems and products. Certain jurisdictions require export licenses or authorizations for defense or dual use articles. Also, subject to certain exemptions, a license may be required to initiate marketing activities.
Environmental Regulation
Our operations are subject to extensive, and frequently changing, federal, state and local environmental laws and substantial related regulation by government agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency. Among other matters, these regulatory authorities impose requirements that regulate the operation, handling, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials; protect the health and safety of workers; and require us to obtain and maintain licenses and permits in connection with our operations. This extensive regulatory framework imposes significant compliance burdens and risks on us. Notwithstanding these burdens, we believe that we are in material compliance with all federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations governing our operations.
There has been no material adverse effect to our Consolidated Financial Statements nor competitive positions as a result of these environmental regulations.
Employees
As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 459 full time employees and 36 part time employees, including 41 full-time employees allocated to Ondas Inc. and Ondas Networks, eight full-time employees allocated to Ondas Capital, and 410 full-time employees and 36 part-time employees allocated to the OAS segment.

We have incurred significant operating losses since inception and cannot assure you that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability.
Since our inception, we have incurred significant net losses. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $368.4 million and $236.4 million, respectively. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through sales of our equity securities and debt financing.
We expect our operating expenses to increase significantly as we pursue our growth strategy, including expending substantial resources for research, development and marketing. The extent of our future operating losses and the timing of profitability are highly uncertain, and we expect to continue incurring significant expenses and operating losses over the next several years. Any additional operating losses may have an adverse effect on our stockholders’ equity and the price of our common stock, and we cannot assure you that we will ever be able to achieve profitability.
Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase such profitability. Additionally, our costs may increase in future periods and we may expend substantial financial and other resources on, among other things, sales and marketing, the hiring of additional officers, employees, contractors and other service providers, and general administration, which may include a significant increase in legal and accounting expenses related to public company compliance, continued compliance and various regulations applicable to our business or arising from the growth and maturity of our company. Our failure to become and remain profitable would depress the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, maintain our development efforts, obtain regulatory approvals, diversify our product and service offerings or continue our operations, and may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
We may not successfully manage our growth.
We have grown substantially over prior years, including by expanding our internal resources, making acquisitions and entering new markets and we intend to continue to focus on growth, including organic growth and additional acquisitions. We may experience difficulties and higher than expected expenses in executing this strategy as a result of unfamiliarity with new markets, changes in revenue and business models, entry into new geographic areas or increased pressure on our existing infrastructure and information technology systems.
Our ability to successfully implement our business plan requires an effective plan for managing our future growth. We plan to increase the scope of our operations. Current and future expansion efforts will be expensive and may significantly strain our managerial and other resources and ability to manage working capital. To manage future growth effectively, we must manage expanded operations, integrate new personnel and maintain and enhance our financial and accounting systems and controls. If we do not manage growth properly, it could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations and make it difficult for us to satisfy our debt obligations.
Our growth will place a significant strain on our management, operational, financial and information technology resources. We will need to continually improve existing procedures and controls, as well as implement new transaction processing, operational and financial systems and procedures and controls to expand, train and manage our employee base. Our working capital needs will continue to increase as our operations grow. Failure to manage our growth effectively or obtain necessary working capital could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

We may be unsuccessful in achieving our organic growth strategies, which could limit our revenue growth or financial performance. Our ability to generate organic growth will be affected by our ability to, among other things:
| ● | attract new customers; |
| ● | increase the number of products purchased from customers; |
| ● | maintain profitable gross margins in the sale and maintenance of our products; |
| ● | increase the number of projects performed for existing customers; |
| ● | achieve the estimated revenue we announced from new customer contracts; |
| ● | hire and retain qualified employees; |
| ● | expand the range of our products and services we offer to customers to address their evolving network needs; |
| ● | expand geographically, including internationally; and |
| ● | address the challenges presented by difficult and unpredictable global and regional economic or market conditions that may affect us or our customers. |
Many of the factors affecting our ability to generate organic growth may be beyond our control, and we cannot be certain that our strategies for achieving internal growth will be attempted, realized or successful.
If we fail to retain our existing customers or do not acquire new customers in a cost-effective manner, our revenue may decrease and our business, financial condition or results of operations may be harmed.
We believe that our success is dependent on our ability to continue identifying and anticipating the needs of our customers, to retain our existing customers and to add new customers. For example, our business plan is designed to penetrate large, critical infrastructure end markets with our wireless and UAS driven data solutions and have expanded our dedicated sales resources and field personnel to broaden our marketing and field support efforts into new industries and sectors. As a result, we have significantly increased customer engagement in the transportation, security and UAS end markets with Ondas Networks and in the defense, industrial, public safety and government markets with OAS. We expect that our qualified customer pipeline will increase in other additional strategic end markets. However, as we become larger through organic growth, the growth rates for customer engagement, project volume and average spend per customer may slow, even if we continue to add customers on an absolute basis. In addition, the costs associated with customer retention may be substantially lower than costs associated with the acquisition of new customers. Therefore, our failure to retain existing customers, even if such losses are offset by an increase in revenue resulting from the acquisition of new customers, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Additionally, while a key part of our business strategy is to add customers in our existing geographic markets, we expect to expand our operations into new geographic markets. In doing so, we may incur losses or otherwise fail to enter new markets successfully. Our expansion into new markets may place us in unfamiliar and competitive environments and involve various risks, including the need to invest significant resources and the possibility that returns on such investments will not be achieved for several years or at all.
We have significant dependence on a small number of customers, and the loss of such customers or a decrease in business conducted with such customers could materially harm our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Because we have only recently invested in our customer service and support organization, a small number of customers have accounted for a substantial amount of our revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2025, two customers accounted for approximately 55% and 11%, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2024, three customers accounted for approximately $3.8 million, $1.9 million, and $0.7 million of our revenue or approximately 52%, 26%, and 10%, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, one customer accounted for 73% of accounts receivable. The loss of any of our customers or a decrease in the business conducted with such customers could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
18
We depend on governmental customers and funding, and our business could be adversely affected by changes in government spending, budget priorities, or procurement policies.
A significant portion of our business, particularly through our OAS segment, involves sales to government customers, including defense, homeland security, and public safety agencies. Our revenue from government customers depends on the availability of funding and continued government interest in our products and services. Government contracts are subject to the government’s budgetary approval process, and there is no assurance that budgets for our programs will continue at current levels or that our programs will not be terminated or experience funding delays. Changes in government budgetary priorities, including continuing resolutions, government shutdowns, or sequestration, could result in reduced or delayed funding for programs in which we participate, which could adversely affect our revenue and operating results.
Government contracts are also subject to various uncertainties, including the risk of contract termination for convenience, modification, or non-renewal. The government may terminate, reduce, or modify contracts or subcontracts if its requirements or budgetary constraints change. In addition, the government contracts are subject to a competitive bidding process that can consume significant resources without generating any revenue. Much of the government business that we expect to seek in the foreseeable future will likely be awarded through competitive bidding. Competitive bidding presents a number of risks, including the substantial cost and managerial time that must be spent to prepare bids and proposals for contracts that may not be awarded to us, the need to accurately estimate the resources and cost structure required to service any contract we are awarded, and the expense and delay that may arise if competitors protest or challenge contract awards made to us. Any of these factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The adoption of the IEEE 802.16t wireless broadband standard, an evolution of the IEEE 802.16s standard published in 2017, by customers in our target critical infrastructure sectors is uncertain.
Ondas Networks is currently developing technology compatible with the proposed wireless broadband standard known as IEEE 802.16t, which is an evolution of the IEEE 802.16s wireless broadband standard published in October 2017. We believe we are currently the only manufacturer of IEEE 802.16s compliant wireless solutions and are likely to be the only manufacturer of IEEE 802.16t compliant wireless solutions when that standard is formally ratified. The benefits of the standard to buyers of our equipment are greater when there exists a large, deep market in terms of the number of customers. A large market benefits from the scale provided such that many vendors can compete on service, price and quality of solution driving improved value for customers. If a large end market does not develop and customers do not see the related benefits from the standard, we may not be able to grow our business.
Our growth depends in part on the success of our strategic collaborations with key customers, as well as on our ability to establish and expand a broad ecosystem of relationships with leading global industrial vendors.
To support our growth, we collaborate with leading technology and industrial companies, many of whom are also our customers, to help accelerate the adoption of our wireless technology. If we are unable to sustain these customer relationships or if these collaborations do not deliver the expected benefits, our ability to compete in the marketplace and grow our revenue could be adversely affected, and our operating results may suffer. In addition, adoption of our FullMAX wireless platform, Optimus System™, and Iron Drone Raider™ requires us to establish additional ecosystem relationships with leading global industrial vendors and customers. Even if we are successful in executing these partnerships and integrating with additional ecosystem vendors, we cannot assure you that these partnerships and relationships will result in increased adoption of our technology or increased revenue.
If the commercial UAS markets do not experience significant growth, if we cannot expand our customer base or if our products and services do not achieve broad acceptance, then we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth.
We cannot accurately predict the future growth rates or sizes of the markets for our products and services. Demand for our products and services may not increase, or may decrease, either generally or in specific markets, for particular types of products and services or during particular time periods. We believe the market for commercial UAS is nascent and the expansion of the market for our products and services in particular, depends on a number of factors, including the following:
| ● | customer satisfaction with these types of systems as solutions; |
19
| ● | the cost, performance and reliability of our products and products offered by our competitors; |
| ● | customer perceptions regarding the effectiveness and value of these types of systems; |
| ● | obtaining timely regulatory approvals for new customer deployments; and |
| ● | marketing efforts and publicity regarding these types of systems and services. |
Even if commercial UAS gain wide market acceptance, our products and services may not adequately address market requirements and may not continue to gain market acceptance. If these types of systems generally, or our products and services specifically, do not gain wide market acceptance, then we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our revenue and results of operations would decline.
Project performance delays or difficulties, including those caused by third parties, or certain contractual obligations may result in additional costs to us, reductions in revenues or the payment of liquidated damages.
Many projects involve challenging engineering, construction or installation phases that may occur over extended time periods. We may encounter difficulties as a result of delays or changes in designs, engineering information or materials provided by our customer or a third party, delays or difficulties in equipment and material delivery, schedule changes, delays from our customer’s failure to timely obtain permits or meet other regulatory requirements including the securing of necessary FCC certifications or FAA approvals, weather-related delays and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, that impact our ability to complete the project in accordance with the original delivery schedule. In addition, we contract with third-party subcontractors to assist us with the completion of contracts. Any delay or failure by suppliers or by subcontractors in the completion of their portion of the project may be beyond our control and may result in delays in the overall progress of the project or may cause us to incur additional costs, or both. Delays and additional costs may be substantial, and, in some cases, we may be required to compensate the customer for such delays. Delays may also disrupt the final completion of our contracts as well as the corresponding recognition of revenues and expenses therefrom. In certain circumstances, we guarantee project completion by a scheduled acceptance date or achievement of certain acceptance and performance testing levels; failure to meet any of our guarantees, schedules or performance requirements could also result in additional costs or penalties to us, including obligations to pay liquidated damages, and such amounts could exceed expected project profit. In extreme cases, the above-mentioned factors could cause project cancellations, and we may be unable to replace such projects with similar projects or at all. Such delays or cancellations may impact our reputation, brand or relationships with customers, adversely affecting our ability to secure new contracts.
We do not control certain aspects of the manufacturing process.
Our reliance on a small number of manufacturers reduces our control over the manufacturing process, exposing us to risks, including reduced control over quality assurance, product costs and product supply including delays in transportation and delivery. Any manufacturing disruption by our usual manufacturers could impair our ability to fulfill orders. We may be unable to manage our relationships with our usual manufacturers effectively as they may experience delays, disruptions, capacity constraints or quality control problems in their manufacturing operations or otherwise fail to meet our future requirements for timely delivery. Similarly, to the extent that our usual manufacturers procure materials on our behalf, we may not benefit from any warranties received by our usual manufacturers from the suppliers or otherwise have recourse against the original supplier of the materials or even the manufacturer. In such circumstances, if the original supplier were to provide us or our usual manufacturers with faulty materials, we might not be able to recover the costs of such materials or be compensated for any damages that arise as a result of the inclusion of the faulty components in our products.
One or more of our usual manufacturers may suffer an interruption in its business, or experience delays, disruptions or quality control problems in its manufacturing operations, or seek to terminate its relationship with us, or we may choose to change or add additional manufacturers for other reasons. Additionally, we do not have long-term supply agreements with our usual manufacturers. As a result, we may be unable to renew or extend our agreement on terms favorable to us, if at all. Although the manufacturing services required to manufacture and assemble our products may be readily available from a number of established manufacturers, it may be risky, time consuming and costly to qualify and implement new manufacturer relationships.
Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
20
Material delays or defaults in customer payments could leave us unable to cover expenditures related to such customer’s projects, including the payment of our subcontractors.
Because of the nature of most of our contracts, we commit resources to projects prior to receiving payments from our customers in amounts sufficient to cover expenditures as they are incurred. In certain cases, these expenditures include paying our contractors and purchasing parts. If a customer defaults in making its payments on a project or projects to which we have devoted significant resources, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Certain of our officers, employees, contractors and other service providers may work on projects that are inherently dangerous, and a failure to maintain a safe worksite could result in significant losses.
Certain of our project sites can place our officers, employees, contractors and other service providers and others, including third parties, in difficult or dangerous environments, and may involve difficult and hard to reach terrain, high elevation, or locations near large or complex equipment, moving vehicles, high voltage or other safety hazards or dangerous processes. Safety is a primary focus of our business and maintaining a good reputation for safety is critical to our business. Many of our customers require that we meet certain safety criteria to be eligible to bid on contracts. We maintain programs with the primary purpose of implementing effective health, safety and environmental procedures throughout our company. Maintaining such programs involves variable costs which may increase as governmental, regulatory and industry safety standards evolve, and any increase in such costs may materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Further, if we fail to implement appropriate safety procedures or if our procedures fail, our officers, employees, contractors and other service providers, including third parties, may suffer injuries. Failure to comply with such procedures, client contracts or applicable regulations, or the occurrence of such injuries, could subject us to material losses and liability and may adversely impact our ability to obtain projects in the future or to hire and retain talented officers, employees, contractors, and other services providers, therefore materially adversely affecting our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our products are subject to a lengthy sales cycle and our customers may cancel or change their product plans after we have expended substantial time and resources in the design of their products.
Many of our customers are conservative in their decision-making process. Sales cycles for new customers can vary from one to three years depending on the complexity of the customer’s network, whether the customer is subject to state regulations, and annual budget cycles. During this lengthy sales cycle, our potential customers may cancel or change their product plans. Customers may also discontinue products incorporating our devices at any time or they may choose to replace our products with lower cost semiconductors. In addition, we are working with leading customers in our target markets to define our future products. If customers cancel, reduce or delay product orders from us, or choose not to release products that incorporate our devices after we have spent substantial time and resources developing products or assisting customers with their product design, our revenue levels may be less than anticipated and our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.
Our marketing efforts depend significantly on our ability to receive positive references from our existing customers.
Our marketing efforts depend significantly on our ability to call on our current and past customers to provide positive references to new, potential customers. A material portion of our current pipeline activity is concentrated in the defense, transportation and aviation sectors. Given our limited number of customers, the loss or dissatisfaction of any customer could substantially harm our brand and reputation, inhibit the market acceptance of our products and services, and impair our ability to attract new customers and maintain existing customers. Further, as we expand into new vertical and geographic end markets, references from existing customers could be similarly important. Any of these consequences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
21
If our products contain defects or otherwise fail to perform as expected, we could be liable for damages and incur unanticipated warranty claims, recall and other related expenses, our reputation could be damaged, we could lose market share and, as a result, our financial condition or results of operations could suffer.
Our products rely on complex avionics, sensors, user-friendly interfaces and tightly integrated, electromechanical designs to accomplish their missions. Our products may contain defects or experience failures due to any number of issues in design, materials, manufacture, deployment and/or use. If any of our products contain a defect, compatibility or interoperability issue or other error, we may have to devote significant time and resources to find and correct the issue. Such efforts could divert the attention of our management team and other relevant personnel from other important tasks. A product recall or a significant number of product returns could (i) be expensive; (ii) damage our reputation and relationships with utilities and other third-party vendors; (iii) result in the loss of business to competitors; and (iv) result in litigation against us. Costs associated with field replacement labor, hardware replacement, re-integration with third-party products, handling charges, correcting defects, errors and bugs, or other issues could be significant and could materially harm our financial results.
As a manufacturer of UAV products, and with aircraft and aviation sector companies under increased scrutiny, claims could be brought against us if use or misuse of one of our UAV products causes, or merely appears to have caused, personal injury or death. In addition, defects in our products may lead to other potential life, health and property risks. Any claims against us, regardless of their merit, could severely harm our financial condition, strain our management and other resources.
The existence of any defects, errors, or failures in our products or the misuse of our products could also lead to product liability claims or lawsuits against us. A defect, error or failure in one of our products could result in injury, death or property damage and significantly damage our reputation and support for our products in general. We anticipate this risk will grow as our products begin to be used in U.S. domestic airspace and urban areas.
Although we maintain insurance policies, we cannot provide assurance that this insurance will be adequate to protect us from all material judgments and expenses related to potential future claims or that these levels of insurance will be available in the future at economical prices or at all. A successful product liability claim could result in substantial cost to us. Even if we are fully insured as it relates to a claim, the claim could nevertheless diminish our brand and divert management’s attention and resources, which could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We generally warrant our manufactured products, including hardware and software, for a period of one year from the date of receipt of the product by the customer. After the first year, the customer can pay for extended hardware warranty and software maintenance and upgrades on an annual basis in advance. Estimated future product warranty claims are based on the expected number of field failures over the warranty commitment period, the term of the product warranty period, and the costs for repair, replacement and other associated costs. Our warranty obligations are affected by product failure rates, claims levels, material usage and product re-integration and handling costs. While costs that we have incurred historically under our warranty obligations have not been material, the costs associated with such warranties, including any warranty related legal proceedings, are variable and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Because our products are relatively new and we do not yet have the benefit of long-term experience observing products’ performance in the field, our estimates of a product’s lifespan and incidence of claims may be inaccurate. Should actual product failure rates, claims levels, material usage, product re-integration and handling costs, defects, errors, bugs or other issues differ from the original estimates, we could end up incurring materially higher warranty or recall expenses than we anticipate.
Negative customer perception regarding the commercial UAS industry or the Company’s automated data solutions could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s products and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company.
The Company believes the commercial UAS industry is highly dependent upon customer perception regarding the safety, efficacy, and quality of the commercial UAS system deployed. Customer perception of these products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention, and other publicity. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention, or other research findings or publicity will be favorable to the UAS market. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity that are perceived as less favorable than, or that question, earlier research reports, findings or publicity could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s products and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company. The dependence upon customer perceptions means that adverse scientific research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity, whether or not accurate or with merit, could have a material adverse effect on the Company, the demand for the Company’s products, and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company.
22
Certain of our products makes use of lithium-ion battery cells, which, if not appropriately managed and controlled, have occasionally been observed to catch fire or vent smoke and flames. If such events occur with our products, we could face liability associated with our warranty, for damage or injury, adverse publicity and a potential safety recall, any of which would adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
The battery packs in certain of our products use lithium-ion cells, which have been used for years in laptop computers and cell phones. On occasion, if not appropriately managed and controlled, lithium-ion cells can rapidly release the energy they contain by venting smoke and flames in a manner that can ignite nearby materials. Highly publicized incidents of laptop computers and cell phones bursting into flames have focused consumer attention on the safety of these cells. These events also have raised questions about the suitability of these lithium-ion cells for automotive applications. There can be no assurance that a field failure of our battery packs will not occur, which would damage the vehicle or lead to personal injury or death and may subject us to lawsuits. Furthermore, there is some risk of electrocution if individuals who attempt to repair battery packs on our vehicles do not follow applicable maintenance and repair protocols. Any such damage or injury would likely lead to adverse publicity and potentially a safety recall. Any such adverse publicity could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
Due to the volatile and flammable nature of certain components of our products and equipment, fires or explosions may disrupt our business or cause significant injuries, which could adversely affect our financial results.
The development and manufacture of certain of our products involves the handling of a variety of explosive and flammable materials as well as high power equipment. From time to time, these activities may result in incidents that could cause us to temporarily shut down or otherwise disrupt some manufacturing processes, causing production delays and resulting in liability for workplace injuries and/or fatalities. We have safety and loss prevention programs that require detailed reviews of process changes and new operations, along with routine safety audits of operations involving explosive materials, to mitigate such incidents, as well as a variety of insurance policies, however our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all claims and losses related to such incidents. We may experience such incidents in the future, which could result in production delays or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Our technology, products and services have only been developed in the last several years and we have had only limited opportunities to deploy and assess their performance in the field at full scale.
The current generation of our certain technology platforms have only been developed in the last several years and will continue to evolve. Deploying and operating our technology is complex and, until recently, had been done primarily by a small number of customers. As the size, complexity and scope of our deployments grow we have been able to test product performance at a greater scale and in a variety of new geographic settings and environmental conditions. As the number, size and complexity of our deployments grow and we deploy our technology platforms for new applications in new critical infrastructure industries, we may encounter unforeseen operational, technical and other challenges, some of which could cause significant delays, trigger contractual penalties, result in unanticipated expenses, and/or damage to our reputation, each of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we fail to respond to evolving technological changes, our products and services could become obsolete or less competitive.
We operate in highly competitive industries characterized by new and rapidly evolving technologies, standards, regulations, customer requirements, as well as frequent product introductions and revisions. Accordingly, our operating results depend upon our ability to develop and introduce new products and services, our ability to reduce production costs of our existing products. The process of developing new technologies and products is complex, and if we are unable to develop enhancements to, and new features for, our existing products and services or acceptable new products and services that keep pace with technological developments or industry standards, our products may become obsolete, less marketable and less competitive and our business, financial condition or results of operations could be significantly harmed.
23
We depend on our ability to develop new products and to enhance and sustain the quality of existing products.
Our growth and future success will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to design and manufacture new competitive products and to enhance and sustain the quality and marketability of our existing products. As such, we have made, and expect to continue to make, substantial investments in technology development. In the future, we may not have the necessary capital, or access to capital on acceptable terms, to fund necessary levels of research and development. Even with adequate capital resources, we may nonetheless experience unforeseen problems in the development or performance of our technologies or products. In addition, we may not meet our product development schedules and, even if we do, we may not develop new products fast enough to provide sufficient differentiation from our competitors’ products, which may be more successful.
We expect to incur substantial research and development costs and devote significant resources to identifying and commercializing new products and services, which could significantly reduce our profitability and may never result in revenue to us.
Our future growth depends on penetrating new markets, adapting existing products to new applications and new environments, and introducing new products and services that achieve market acceptance. We plan to incur substantial research and development costs as part of our efforts to design, develop and commercialize new products and services and enhance existing products. For example, we will incur research and development costs to improve the functionality of our acoustic DAA solution configuration in certain environments, in addition to integrating new payloads to broaden the functionality of our products and services. Further, our research and development programs may not produce successful results, and our new products and services may not achieve market acceptance, create additional revenue or become profitable, which could materially harm our business, prospects, financial results and liquidity.
If our products do not interoperate with our customers’ other systems, the purchase or deployment of our products and services may be delayed or cancelled.
Our products are designed to interface with our customers’ other systems, each of which may have different specifications and utilize multiple protocol standards and products from other vendors. Our products will be required to interoperate with many or all of these products as well as future products in order to meet our customers’ requirements. If we find errors in the existing software or defects in the hardware used in our customers’ systems, we may need to modify our products or services to fix or overcome these errors so that our products will interoperate with the existing software and hardware, which could be costly and negatively affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, if our products and services do not interoperate with our customers’ systems, customers may seek to hold us liable, demand for our products could be adversely affected or orders for our products could be delayed or cancelled. This could hurt our operating results, damage our reputation or brand, and seriously harm our prospects, business, financial condition or results of operations.
The Company operates in a competitive market.
The Company faces competition and new competitors will continue to emerge throughout the world. Services offered by the Company’s competitors may take a larger share of customer spending than anticipated, which could cause revenue generated from the Company’s products and services to fall below expectations. It is expected that competition in these markets will intensify. If competitors of the Company develop and market more successful products or services, offer competitive products or services at lower price points, or if the Company does not produce consistently high-quality and well-received products and services, revenues, margins, and profitability of the Company will decline.
The Company’s ability to compete effectively will depend on, among other things, the Company’s pricing of services and equipment, quality of customer service and field support, development of new and enhanced products and services in response to customer demands and changing technology, reach and quality of sales and distribution channels and capital resources. Competition could lead to a reduction in the rate at which the Company adds new customers, a decrease in the size of the Company’s market share and a decline in its customers.
24
We rely on our management team and need additional personnel to grow our business, and the loss of one or more key officers, employees, contractors and other service providers or our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations.
We depend, in part, on the performance of Eric Brock, our Chief Executive Officer and President; Neil Laird, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer; and Patrick Huston, our Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel and Secretary; Markus Nottelmann, Chief Executive Officer of Ondas Networks; Menashe Shahar, the Chief Technology Officer of Ondas Networks; Oshri Lugassi the Co-Chief Executive Officer of OAS; Meir Kliner the President of OAS; and Amit Bigler, the Chief Financial Officer of OAS to operate and grow our business. The loss of any of Messrs. Brock, Laird, Huston, Nottelmann, Shahar, Lugassi, Kliner or Bigler could negatively impact our ability to execute our business strategies. Although we have entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Brock, Laird, Huston, Nottelmann, Shahar, Lugassi, Kliner and Bigler, we may be unable to retain them or replace any of them if we lose their services for any reason.
Our future success will also depend on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled management, product development, operations, sales, technical and other personnel in the U.S. and abroad. Even in today’s economic climate, competition for these types of personnel is intense. Given the lengthy sales cycles with utilities and deployment periods of our networking platform and solutions, the loss of key personnel at any time could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Cyberattacks through security vulnerabilities could lead to disruption of business, reduced revenue, increased costs, liability claims, or harm to our reputation or competitive position.
Security vulnerabilities may arise from our hardware, software, employees, contractors or policies we have deployed, which may result in external parties gaining access to our networks, datacenters, cloud datacenters, corporate computers, manufacturing systems, and or access to accounts we have at our suppliers, vendors, and customers. They may gain access to our data or our users’ or customers’ data or attack the networks causing denial of service or attempt to hold our data or systems in ransom. The vulnerability could be caused by inadequate account security practices such as failure to timely remove employee access when terminated. To mitigate these security issues, we have implemented measures throughout our organization, including firewalls, backups, encryption, employee information technology policies and user account policies. However, there can be no assurance these measures will be sufficient to avoid cyberattacks. If any of these types of security breaches were to occur and we were unable to protect sensitive data, our relationships with our business partners and customers could be materially damaged, our reputation could be materially harmed, and we could be exposed to a risk of litigation and possible significant liability.
Further, if we fail to adequately maintain our infrastructure, we may have outages and data loss. Excessive outages may affect our ability to timely and efficiently deliver products to customers or develop new products and solutions. Such disruptions and data loss may adversely impact our ability to fulfill orders, patent our intellectual property or protect our source code, and interrupt other processes. Delayed sales or lost customers resulting from these disruptions could adversely affect our financial results, stock price and reputation.
Unauthorized use or disclosure of, or access to, any personal information maintained by us or on our behalf, whether through breach of our systems, breach of the systems of our suppliers or vendors by an unauthorized party, or through employee or contractor error, theft or misuse, or otherwise, could harm our business. If any such unauthorized use or disclosure of, or access to, such personal information was to occur, our operations could be seriously disrupted, and we could be subject to demands, claims and litigation by private parties, and investigations, related actions, and penalties by regulatory authorities. In addition, we could incur significant costs in notifying affected persons and entities and otherwise complying with the multitude of foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the unauthorized access to, or use or disclosure of, personal information. Finally, any perceived or actual unauthorized access to, or use or disclosure of, such information could harm our reputation, substantially impair our ability to attract and retain customers and have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The development and use of artificial intelligence technologies presents risks that may affect our business, operations, and competitive position.
We incorporate machine learning and artificial intelligence capabilities into certain of our products and solutions and may seek to expand the use of AI in our offerings in the future. As with many innovations, AI presents risks, challenges, and unintended consequences that could affect our business. AI algorithms and training methodologies may be flawed. These deficiencies and other failures of AI systems could subject us to competitive harm, regulatory action, legal liability, and brand or reputational harm. Further, incorporating AI could give rise to litigation risk and risk of non-compliance and unknown cost of compliance, as AI is an emerging technology for which the legal and regulatory landscape is not fully developed, including potential liability for breaching intellectual property or privacy rights or laws.
25
Additionally, leveraging AI capabilities to potentially improve internal functions and operations presents further risks and challenges. The use of AI to support business operations carries inherent risks related to data privacy and security, such as intended, unintended, or inadvertent transmission of proprietary, sensitive or export-controlled information, as well as challenges related to implementing and maintaining AI tools. Our competitors might move faster than us to gain efficiencies by incorporating AI into their design and development processes, and our products and/or cost structure could become less competitive as a result. The rapid evolution of AI will require the application of resources by us to develop, test and maintain our products, services and operations to help ensure that AI is implemented ethically in order to minimize unintended, harmful impact. Our competitors may be faster or more successful than we are in incorporating AI and other disruptive technology into their offerings, which would impair our ability to compete successfully.
The regulatory framework for AI technologies is rapidly evolving. Existing laws and regulations may be interpreted in ways that could affect the operation of our AI technologies, and federal, state and foreign government bodies and agencies have introduced or are currently considering additional laws and regulations applicable to AI technologies. The cost to comply with such laws, regulations, and guidance, or to adjust our business plans based on changes to how such laws are enforced, could be significant and would increase our operating expenses or impact our ability to use, procure or commercialize AI technologies. Such an increase in operating expenses, as well as any actual or perceived failure to comply with such laws and regulations, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If critical components or raw materials used to manufacture our products or used in our development programs become scarce or unavailable, then we may incur delays in manufacturing and delivery of our products and in completing our development programs, which could damage our business.
In order to produce our products and services and related safety systems, we obtain certain hardware components, as well as subsystems and systems from a limited group of suppliers, some of which are sole source suppliers. We do not have long-term agreements with any of these suppliers that obligate them to continue to sell components, subsystems, systems or products to us. Our reliance on these suppliers involves significant risks and uncertainties, including whether our suppliers will provide an adequate supply of required components, subsystems, or systems of sufficient quality, will increase prices for the components, subsystems or systems and will perform their obligations on a timely basis.
In addition, certain raw materials and components used in the manufacturing of our products and in our development programs, are periodically subject to supply shortages, and our business is subject to the risk of price increases and periodic delays in delivery. Particularly, the market for electronic components is experiencing increased demand and a global shortage of semiconductors, creating substantial uncertainty regarding our suppliers’ continued production of key components for our products. If any additional shortages occur and we are unable to obtain components from third party suppliers in the quantities and of the quality that we require, on a timely basis and at acceptable prices, then we may not be able to timely complete development programs or deliver our products on a timely or cost effective basis to our customers, which could cause customers to terminate their contracts with us, increase our costs and seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, if any of our suppliers become financially unstable, or otherwise unable or unwilling to provide us with raw materials or components, then we may have to find new suppliers. It may take several months to locate alternative suppliers, if required, or to redesign our products to accommodate components from different suppliers. We may experience significant delays in manufacturing and shipping our products to customers and incur additional development, manufacturing and other costs to establish alternative sources of supply if we lose any of these sources or are required to redesign our products.
We currently do not have long-term supply contracts with guaranteed pricing which exposes us to fluctuations in component, materials and equipment prices. Substantial increases in these prices would increase our operating costs and could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
Because we currently do not have long-term supply contracts with guaranteed pricing, we are subject to fluctuations in the prices of the raw materials, parts and components and equipment we use in the production of our products and services. Substantial increases in the prices for such raw materials, components and equipment would increase our operating costs and could reduce our margins if we cannot recoup the increased costs through increased prices. Any attempts to increase prices of our automated data solutions in response to increased costs could be viewed negatively by our customers and could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
26
Our past acquisitions, as well as any acquisitions we may complete in the future, may be unsuccessful or result in other risks or developments that adversely affect our financial condition and results.
We intend to consider additional potential strategic transactions, which could involve acquisitions of businesses or assets, joint ventures or investments in businesses, products or technologies that expand, complement or otherwise relate to our current or future business. While we intend for our acquisitions to improve our competitiveness and profitability, we cannot be certain that our past or future acquisitions will be accretive to earnings or otherwise meet our operational or strategic expectations. Special risks, including accounting, regulatory, compliance, information technology or human resources issues may arise in connection with, or as a result of, the acquisition of an existing company, including the assumption of unanticipated liabilities and contingencies, difficulties in integrating acquired businesses, possible management distractions or the inability of the acquired business to achieve the levels of revenue, income, productivity or synergies we anticipate or otherwise perform as we expect on the timeline contemplated. We are unable to predict all the risks that could arise as a result of our acquisitions.
If the performance of an acquired business varies from our projections or assumptions or if estimates about the future profitability of an acquired business change, our revenues, earnings or other aspects of our financial condition could be adversely affected. We may also experience difficulties in connection with integrating any acquired companies into our existing businesses and operations, including our existing infrastructure and information technology systems. The infrastructure and information technology systems of acquired companies could present issues that we were unable to identify prior to the acquisition and could adversely affect our financial condition and results. Moreover, these transactions could involve: (a) substantial investment of funds or financings by issuance of debt or equity securities; (b) substantial investment with respect to technology transfers and operational integration; and (c) the acquisition or disposition of product lines or businesses. Also, such activities could result in one-time charges and expenses and have the potential to either dilute the interests of our existing shareholders or result in the issuance of, or assumption of debt.
Additionally, we may not realize all of the synergies we anticipate from past and potential future acquisitions. Among the synergies that we may expect to realize are cross-selling opportunities to our existing customers, as well as operational efficiencies. Variances from these or other assumptions or expectations could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Any impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets acquired in an acquisition or in an investment, or charges to earnings associated with any acquisition or investment activity, may materially reduce our earnings. Future acquisitions or joint ventures may not result in their anticipated benefits, and we may not be able to properly integrate acquired products, technologies or businesses with our existing products and operations or successfully combine personnel and cultures. Failure to do so could deprive us of the intended benefits of those acquisitions. Moreover, if we are unable to access the capital markets on acceptable terms or at all, we may not be able to consummate acquisitions, or may have to do so on the basis of a less than optimal capital structure. Our inability to take advantage of growth opportunities or address risks associated with acquisitions or investments in businesses may negatively affect our operating results.
If the Company is required to write down goodwill and other intangible assets, the Company’s financial condition and results could be negatively affected.
Goodwill impairment arises when there is deterioration in the capabilities of acquired assets to generate cash flows, and the fair value of the goodwill dips below its book value. The Company is required to review its goodwill for impairment at least annually. Events that may trigger goodwill impairment include deterioration in economic conditions, increased competition, loss of key personnel, and regulatory action. Should any of these occur, an impairment of goodwill could have a negative effect on the assets of the Company.
In December 2025, the Company performed a qualitative analysis and concluded there were no indications of impairment. As of December 31, 2025, goodwill was approximately $251.8 million. Refer to Note 6 of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the impairment of goodwill.
War, terrorism, and other acts of violence may affect the markets in which we operate, our clients and our product and service delivery.
Our business may be adversely affected by regional or global instability, disruption or destruction, regardless of cause, including war, terrorism, riot, civil insurrection or social unrest. For example, the war in Israel and the significant military action against Ukraine launched by Russia may affect the markets in which we operate. Such events may cause clients to delay their decisions on spending for the products and services provided by us and give rise to sudden significant changes in regional and global economic conditions and cycles. These events pose risks which could materially adversely affect our financial results.
27
Since many of our subsidiaries are located in Israel, the Company has considered various ongoing risks relating to the military operation and related matters. All of the Company’s workforce in Israel returned to work and inventory production restraints have eased. The Company is closely monitoring how the military operation and related activities could adversely affect its anticipated milestones and its Israel-based activities to support future operations, including the Company’s ability to import materials that are required to construct the products and services and to ship them outside of Israel. To date, we have not had material disruptions to our ability to produce, manage and deliver products and services to customers as our U.S. teams have supported our ongoing operations in Israel and the Middle East; however, a prolonged war or an escalation of the current conditions in Israel could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Due to the ongoing and evolving nature of these events, the extent of the adverse effect on our business operations is still unknown.
We may not be able to secure adequate insurance policies, or secure insurance policies at reasonable prices.
We maintain general liability insurance, aviation flight testing insurance, aircraft liability coverage, directors and officers insurance, and other insurance policies and we believe our level of coverage is customary in the industry and adequate to protect against claims. However, there can be no assurance that it will be sufficient to cover potential claims or that present levels of coverage will be available in the future at a reasonable cost. Further, we expect our insurance needs and costs to increase as we grow our commercial operations and expand into new markets and it is uncertain if such insurance will be available on commercially reasonable terms.
The Company will be affected by operational risks and may not be adequately insured for certain risks.
The Company will be affected by a number of operational risks and the Company may not be adequately insured for certain risks, including: labor disputes; catastrophic accidents; fires; blockades or other acts of social activism; changes in the regulatory environment; impact of non-compliance with laws and regulations; natural phenomena, such as inclement weather conditions, floods, earthquakes and ground movements. There is no assurance that the foregoing risks and hazards will not result in damage to, or destruction of, the Company’s technologies, personal injury or death, environmental damage, adverse impacts on the Company’s operation, costs, monetary losses, potential legal liability and adverse governmental action, any of which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s future cash flows, earnings and financial condition. Furthermore, the unmanned aerial systems industry lacks a formative insurance market. As a result, the Company may be subject to or affected by liability or sustain loss for certain risks and hazards against which the Company cannot insure or which the Company may elect not to insure because of the cost. This lack of insurance coverage could have an adverse impact on the Company’s future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition.
Litigation may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
From time to time in the normal course of our business operations, we may become subject to litigation that may result in liability material to our financial condition as a whole or may negatively affect our operating results if changes to our business operations are required. The cost to defend such litigation may be significant and may require a significant diversion of our resources, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to successfully defend against any such litigation regardless of particular merits. There also may be adverse publicity associated with litigation that could negatively affect customer perception of our business, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or whether we are ultimately found liable. Insurance may not be available on favorable terms, at all, or in sufficient amounts to cover any liabilities with respect to these or other matters. A judgment or other liability in excess of our insurance coverage for any claims could adversely affect our business, financial condition and the results of our operations.
Our cash could be adversely affected if the financial institutions in which we hold our cash fail.
The Company maintains domestic cash deposits in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured banks. The domestic bank deposit balances may exceed the FDIC insurance limits. Also, in the foreign markets we serve, we also maintain cash deposits in foreign banks, some of which are not insured or partially insured by the FDIC or other similar agency. These balances could be impacted if one or more of the financial institutions in which we deposit monies fails or is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets.
28
Unstable market and economic conditions may have serious adverse consequences on our business, financial condition and stock price.
Global credit and financial markets have experienced extreme disruptions in recent years, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates and uncertainty about economic stability. There can be no assurance that renewed deterioration in credit and financial markets and confidence in economic conditions will not occur. Our general business strategy may be adversely affected by any economic downturn, volatile business environment or continued unpredictable and unstable market conditions. If the current equity and credit markets deteriorate, or do not improve, it may make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, costlier and more dilutive. Failure to secure any necessary financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, financial performance and stock price and could require us to delay or abandon implementing business initiatives.
Uncertainty about current and future global economic conditions may cause governments, including the U.S. government, which is a target customer, other customers and businesses to modify, defer or cancel purchases in response to tighter credit, decreased cash availability and declining consumer confidence. Accordingly, future demand for our products could differ materially from our current expectations. Additionally, if customers are not successful in generating sufficient revenue or are precluded from securing financing, they may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable that are owed to us. Any inability of current and/or potential customers to pay us for our products may adversely affect our earnings and cash flow. In addition, if our suppliers face challenges in obtaining credit, selling their products, or otherwise in operating their businesses or remaining solvent, they may become unable to offer the materials we use to manufacture our products.
As a global company, our performance is affected by global economic, market and industry conditions as well as geopolitical issues and other conditions with global reach. In recent years, concerns about the global economic outlook, inflation and increased interest rates have adversely affected market and business conditions in general. Macroeconomic weakness and uncertainty make it more difficult for us to manage our operations and accurately forecast revenue, gross margin and operating expenses. Further, bank failures and other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties, or other third parties, or concerns or rumors about these events, have led to market-wide liquidity problems. Sustained or worsening of global economic conditions and geopolitical issues may increase our cost of doing business, materially disrupt our supply chain operations, cause our customers to reduce or delay spending and intensify pricing pressures. We cannot predict the timing, strength or duration of any economic slowdown, instability or recovery, generally or within any particular industry. If the economic conditions of the general economy or markets in which we operate worsen from present levels, demand for our products, and our business, financial condition and results of operations, could be adversely affected.
Risks Related to Regulatory Requirements
We and our customers operate in a highly regulated business environment and changes in regulation could impose costs on us or make our products less economical.
Our products and services and our utility customers are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations. Laws and regulations applicable to us and our products govern, among other things, the manner in which our products communicate, and the environmental impact and electrical reliability of our products. Additionally, our critical infrastructure customers are often regulated by national, state and/or local bodies, including public utility commissions, the Department of Energy, the Department of War, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the FAA, the FCC, Federal Railroad Administration, Israeli Defense Export Controls Agency of the Ministry of Defense and other bodies. Prospective customers may be required to gain approval from any or all of these organizations prior to implementing our products and services, including specific permissions related to the cost recovery of these systems. Regulatory agencies may impose special requirements for implementation and operation of our products, which may result in unforeseen delays. We may incur material costs or liabilities in complying with government regulations applicable to us or our utility customers. In addition, potentially significant expenditures could be required in order to comply with evolving regulations and requirements that may be adopted or imposed on us or our utility customers in the future. Such costs could make our products less economical and could impact our utility customers’ willingness to adopt our products, which could materially and adversely affect our revenue, results of operations and financial condition.
29
Furthermore, changes in the underlying regulatory conditions that affect critical infrastructure industries could have a potentially adverse effect on our customers’ interest or ability to implement our technologies. Many regulatory jurisdictions have implemented rules that provide financial incentives for the implementation of energy efficiency and demand response technologies, often by providing rebates or through the restructuring of utility rates. If these programs were to cease, or if they were restructured in a manner inconsistent with the capabilities enabled by our products and services, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be significantly harmed.
Failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals from the FAA or other governmental agencies, or limitations put on the use of small UAS in response to public privacy and other concerns, may prevent us from expanding the sales of our drone solutions to industrial and government customers in the U.S.
The regulation of small UAS for commercial use in the U.S. is undergoing substantial change and the ultimate treatment is uncertain.
On February 14, 2012, the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 was enacted, establishing various deadlines for the FAA to allow expanded use of small UAS for both public and commercial applications. On June 21, 2016, the FAA released its final rules regarding the routine use of certain small UAS (under 55 pounds) in the U.S. National Airspace System pursuant to the act (the “Part 107 Rules”). The Part 107 Rules, which became effective in August 2016, provided safety regulations for small UAS conducting non-recreational operations and contain various limitations and restrictions for such operations, including a requirement that operators keep UAS within visual-line-of-sight and prohibiting flights over unprotected people on the ground who are not directly participating in the operation of the UAS. On December 28, 2020, the FAA announced final rules requiring remote identification of drones and allowing operators of small drones to fly over people and at night under certain conditions.
Additionally, in December 2019, the FAA proposed rules regarding remote UAS identification, which became the final rule on September 16, 2023. In April 2021, the final rule for the operation of small UAS over people went into effect, which permits routine operations of small, uncrewed aircraft over people, moving vehicles, and at night under certain conditions. The FAA has also introduced proposed rules for a new policy regarding the airworthiness certification of a newly created special class of UAS, which rules are not yet in effect. On June 8, 2021, the FAA announced the formation of an Aviation Rulemaking Committee (“ARC”) to develop new rules to further define regulations for the operations of UAS Beyond Visual Line-of-Site (“BVLOS”). The timing of additional rulemaking is uncertain as is the outcome of the still developing regulatory environment related to the operation of small UAS. Additionally, recent focus on reducing the size of the federal workforce could negatively impact the availability of resources within the FAA which could delay our progress towards certification.
We cannot assure you that any final rules enacted in furtherance of the FAA’s announced proposals will result in the expanded use of our drones and drone solutions by commercial and industrial entities. In addition, there exists public concern regarding the privacy and other implications of U.S. commercial use of small UAS. This concern has included calls to develop explicit written policies and procedures establishing usage limitations. We cannot assure you that the response from regulatory agencies, customers and privacy advocates to these concerns will not delay or restrict the adoption of small UAS by the commercial use markets.
Substantially all our current wireless networking products depend on the availability and are subject to the use of licensed radio frequencies regulated by the FCC in the U.S.
Substantially all of our current wireless networking products are designed to communicate wirelessly via licensed radio frequencies and therefore depend on the availability of adequate radio spectrum in order to operate. It is possible that the FCC or the U.S. Congress could adopt additional regulations or policies which are or may change or modify current regulations or policies so that they are, harmful to our business or incompatible with our current or future product offerings, as well as products currently installed in the field. Additional regulations or policies or changes or modifications to current regulations or policies may require modification or replacement of our products, including products currently installed in the field, at significant, or even prohibitive, cost to us, and may require changes or modifications to, or termination of, ongoing or planned projects. Any of these developments could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations.
30
As a manufacturer of commercial UAS, we are subject to various government regulations, restrictions and requirements, and may be subject to additional regulations in the future, violation of which could subject us to sanctions or otherwise harm, restrict or add costs to our business.
As a manufacturer of consumer products, we are subject to significant government regulations, restrictions and requirements, including, in the U.S., those issued under the Consumer Products Safety Act, as well as those issued under product safety and consumer protection statutes in our international markets. Failure to comply with any applicable product safety or consumer protection regulation could result in sanctions that could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Governments and regulatory agencies in the markets where we manufacture and sell products may enact additional regulations relating to product safety and consumer protection in the future and may also increase the penalties for failure to comply with product safety and consumer protection regulations. In addition, one or more of our customers might require changes in our products, such as the non-use of certain materials, in the future. Complying with any such additional regulations or requirements could impose increased costs on our business. Similarly, increased penalties for non-compliance could subject us to greater expenses in the event any of our products were found to not comply with such regulations. Such increased costs or penalties could harm our business.
Our business is subject to federal, state and international laws regarding data protection, privacy, information security and national security, as well as confidentiality obligations under various agreements, and our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could damage our reputation, expose us to litigation risk and adversely affect our business and operating results.
In connection with our business, we receive, collect, process and retain certain personal and confidential customer information. As a result, we are subject to increasingly rigorous federal, state and international laws regarding privacy and data protection. Personal privacy, data protection and information security are significant issues in the U.S. and the other jurisdictions where we offer our products and services. The regulatory framework for privacy and security issues worldwide is rapidly evolving and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. Our handling of data is subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including regulation by various government agencies, including the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and various state, local and foreign bodies and agencies. We also execute confidentiality and data protection agreements with various parties under which we are required to protect their confidential information.
The U.S. federal and various state and foreign governments have adopted or proposed limitations on the collection, distribution, use and storage of personal information of individuals, including end-customers and employees. In the U.S., the FTC and many state attorney generals are applying federal and state consumer protection laws to the online collection, use and dissemination of data. Additionally, many foreign countries and governmental bodies, and other jurisdictions in which we operate or conduct our business, have laws and regulations concerning the processing of personal information obtained from their residents or by businesses operating within or processing personal information that falls within their jurisdiction. These laws and regulations often are more restrictive than those in the U.S. in certain areas, whereas U.S. laws may impose requirements not included in their international counterparts. Such laws and regulations may, for example, require companies to implement new privacy and security policies and practices, permit individuals to access, correct and delete personal information stored or maintained by such companies, inform individuals of security breaches that affect their personal information, and, in some cases, obtain individuals’ consent to use personal information for certain purposes.
We also expect that there will continue to be new proposed laws, regulations and industry standards concerning privacy, data protection, information security and national security in the U.S., the European Union and other jurisdictions, and we cannot yet determine the impact of such future laws, regulations and standards may have on our business. We are subject to heightened national security-based data restrictions and evolving U.S. enforcement trends, which may impose potential compliance costs, restrictions on data movement, and risks tied to defense-related or export-controlled data. Also, for example, the California Consumer Privacy Act, which became effective in 2020, provides new data privacy rights for consumers and new operational requirements for companies. Additionally, we expect that existing laws, regulations and standards may be interpreted differently in the future. There remains significant uncertainty surrounding the regulatory framework for the future of personal data transfers from the European Union to the U.S. with regulations such as the recently adopted General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which imposes more stringent European Union data protection requirements, provides an enforcement authority, and imposes large penalties for noncompliance. Future laws, regulations, standards and other obligations, including the adoption of the GDPR, as well as changes in the interpretation of existing laws, regulations, standards and other obligations could impair our ability to collect, use or disclose information relating to individuals, which could decrease demand for our products, require us to restrict our business operations, increase our costs and impair our ability to maintain and grow our customer base and increase our revenue.
31
Although we are working to comply with those federal, state and foreign laws and regulations, industry standards, contractual obligations and other legal obligations that apply to us, such laws, regulations, standards and obligations are evolving and may be modified, interpreted and applied in an inconsistent manner from one jurisdiction to another, and may conflict with one another, other requirements or legal obligations, our practices or the features of our products. As such, we cannot assure ongoing compliance with all such laws or regulations, industry standards, contractual obligations and other legal obligations, and our efforts to do so may cause us to incur significant costs or require changes to our business practices, which could adversely affect our business and operating results. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with federal, state or foreign laws or regulations, industry standards, contractual obligations or other legal obligations, or any actual or suspected security incident, whether or not resulting in unauthorized access to, or acquisition, release or transfer of personal information or other data, may result in governmental enforcement actions and prosecutions, private litigation, fines and penalties or adverse publicity and could cause our customers to lose trust in us, which could have an adverse effect on our reputation and business. Any inability to adequately address privacy and security concerns, even if unfounded, or comply with applicable laws, regulations, policies, industry standards, contractual obligations or other legal obligations could result in additional cost and liability to us, damage our reputation, inhibit sales, and adversely affect our business and operating results.
Our international operations are subject to various operational and financial risks that could adversely affect our business.
In addition to the U.S., many of our subsidiaries operates in Israel, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. The services and products we provide outside the U.S. are subject to risks resulting from changes in tariffs, trade restrictions, trade agreements, tax rules and policies, difficulties in managing or overseeing foreign operations and agents, different liability standards, issues related to compliance with anti-corruption laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act data protection, trade compliance and intellectual property laws of countries that do not protect our rights relating to our intellectual property, including our proprietary information systems, to the same extent as U.S. laws. The international scope of our business requires us to comply with a wide range of national and local laws and regulations, which may in certain cases diverge from or even conflict with each other. Restrictions imposed on us by the foreign governments, as a result of strategic ties and treaties with foreign countries, limit our activities and access to certain region or decrease the profitability of our operations in that region, in a manner that may restrict, and even prevent in certain situations, our operations in certain regions and affect its results.
With the geographic expansion of our business, and that of our subsidiaries, into new markets, we have become subject to additional and changing legal, regulatory, tax, licensing, and compliance requirements and industry standards.
In countries where we operate, legislators and regulatory authorities may introduce new interpretations of existing laws and regulations or introduce new legislation or regulations concerning our business. Changes in government regulation of or successful challenges to the business model used by us in certain markets may require us to change our existing business models and operations. Any additional regulatory scrutiny or changes in legal requirements may impose significant compliance costs and make it uneconomical for us to continue to operate in all of the current markets or to expand in accordance with our strategy, particularly if regulations or their interpretations vary greatly or conflict between different operating countries. This may negatively impact our revenue and profitability by preventing our business from reaching sufficient scale in particular markets or having to change our business model or incur additional costs, which would adversely impact business. As we expand our business in foreign countries, we will be exposed to increased risk of loss from foreign currency fluctuations and exchange controls. Our inability, or perceived inability, to comply with existing or new compliance obligations could lead to regulatory scrutiny, which could result in administrative or enforcement action, such as fines, penalties, and/or enforceable undertakings, and adversely affect our business.
We may become subject to increasing global trade laws and regulations.
We may become subject to increasing global trade laws and regulations, including economic sanctions, export controls, and import laws. Failure to comply with global trade laws and regulations can result in penalties and reputational harm. Our international sales efforts expose us to increased risk under these laws and regulations, and increasing and evolving global trade laws could impact our business.
In addition, the global economy has recently seen a significant rise in tariffs and threats of tariffs. While tariffs have not had a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations to date, new tariffs could increase the costs of raw materials and other goods, both for us and our suppliers, which could impact our business, particularly as we begin to scale our manufacturing operations. Our products, including motors, batteries, sensors, and other advanced components, may rely on materials sourced from foreign countries. Any disruption in the supply of these materials due to geopolitical tensions, trade restrictions, supply chain bottlenecks, or export controls could adversely affect our ability to produce and deliver our products.
32
Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of new tariffs or other import restrictions, could increase our costs, disrupt our supply chain, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The U.S. has recently enacted, and may enact or propose to enact, significant new tariffs on imported goods, including technology components, raw materials, and finished products. Additionally, President Trump has directed various federal agencies to further evaluate key aspects of U.S. trade policy and there has been ongoing discussion and commentary regarding potential significant changes to U.S. trade policies, treaties and tariffs. As a result, there continues to be significant uncertainty surrounding the future of U.S. trade policy and its global implications. This uncertainty-whether arising from actual regulatory actions or even the perception that such changes may occur-could adversely impact global economic conditions, increase volatility in financial markets, and reduce international trade volumes, including trade between the U.S. and countries where our suppliers, contract manufacturers, or customers are located. In the first half of 2025, we observed a significant shift in U.S. trade policy, with increased tariffs and the imposition of significant new tariffs that could have an adverse impact on our supply chain and business operations. While certain of the recently announced tariffs have been paused, whether and to what degree they may be reinstated is uncertain at this time and may have implications for our suppliers and our business.
As a company with global operations and dependencies on a complex international supply chain, these developments could materially affect our cost structure, operating efficiency, and commercial execution. Specifically:
| ● | We rely on imported materials, components, or finished goods, and if tariffs increase, our supply chain costs may rise, adversely affecting our business, results of operations and cash flows; |
| ● | Changes in trade policies, such as new tariffs or increases in tariffs, or reactionary measures including retaliatory tariffs, legal challenges, or currency manipulation, could adversely impact us; |
| ● | We may face increased costs from tariffs on imported components used in our drone systems and wireless infrastructure products; |
| ● | Our ability to source certain materials or components may be constrained or delayed, resulting in supply chain disruptions and missed customer deadlines; We may be required to seek alternative suppliers or relocate manufacturing capacity at substantial cost and with uncertain outcomes; |
| ● | Export restrictions or retaliatory tariffs imposed by foreign governments could impact our ability to sell products internationally, particularly in strategic growth markets; |
| ● | Evolving regulatory requirements may increase our compliance burden and legal exposure related to customs classifications, country-of-origin tracking, and trade licensing. |
Any of these outcomes could reduce our gross margins, hinder our revenue growth, delay strategic initiatives, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. While we intend to take steps to mitigate any impacts of tariffs or other impacts resulting from changes in trade policy, our ability to do so may be limited by operational and supply chain constraints, especially in the short term.
Risks Related to our Intellectual Property
Our ability to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology is uncertain.
We rely primarily on patent, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements, to protect our proprietary technologies and intellectual property. As of this filing, the Ondas Networks segment held a total of eight issued patents in the U.S., seven issued international patents, eight patent pending applications in the U.S., and four international pending patent applications. The Ondas Networks segment patents expire between 2026 and 2040, subject to any patent extensions that may be available for such patents. As of this filing, the OAS segment held a total of 13 issued patents in the U.S., 24 issued international patents, and ten international pending patent applications. The OAS segment patents expire between 2026 and 2042, subject to any patent extensions that may be available for such patents. Our intellectual property incorporates internally developed software and hardware design incorporating machine and computer vision and was developed with artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques. This intellectual property is critical to the development of end-to-end systems which reliably enable the automated operation of drones in real-world environments.

We have applied for patent protection relating to certain existing and proposed products and processes. Currently, several of our issued U.S. patents as well as various pending U.S. and foreign patent applications relate to our products and services and are therefore important to the functionality of our products. If we fail to timely file a patent application in any jurisdiction, we may be precluded from doing so at a later date. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that any of our patent applications will be approved in a timely manner or at all. The rights granted to us under our patents, and the rights we are seeking to have granted in our pending patent applications, may not be meaningful or provide us with any commercial advantage. In addition, those rights could be opposed, contested or circumvented by our competitors, or be declared invalid or unenforceable in judicial or administrative proceedings. The failure of our patents to adequately protect our technology might make it easier or cheaper for our competitors to offer the same or similar products or technologies. Even if we are successful in receiving patent protection for certain products and processes, our competitors may be able to design around our patents or develop products that provide outcomes which are comparable or superior to ours without infringing on our intellectual property rights. Due to differences between foreign and U.S. patent laws, our patented intellectual property rights may not receive the same degree of protection in foreign countries as they would in the U.S. Even if patents are granted outside the U.S., effective enforcement in those countries may not be available without significant cost and time expense or at all.
We rely on our trademarks and trade names to distinguish our products from the products of our competitors. Third parties may challenge our use of the trademarks. In the event that our trademarks are successfully challenged, we could be forced to rebrand our products, which could result in loss of brand recognition, and could require us to devote additional resources to marketing new brands. Further, we cannot assure you that competitors will not infringe upon our trademarks, or that we will have adequate resources to enforce our trademarks.
We also rely on trade secrets, know-how and technology, which are not protectable by patents, to maintain our competitive position. We try to protect this information by entering into confidentiality agreements and intellectual property assignment agreements with our officers, employees, contractors and other service providers regarding our intellectual property and proprietary technology. In the event of unauthorized use or disclosure or other breaches of those agreements, we may not be provided with meaningful protection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information. In addition, our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors. To the extent that our commercial partners, collaborators, officers, employees, contractors and other service providers use intellectual property owned by others in their work for us, disputes may arise as to the rights in the related or resulting know-how and inventions. If any of our trade secrets, know-how or other technologies not protected by a patent were to be disclosed to or independently developed by a competitor, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
If a competitor infringes upon one of our patents, trademarks or other intellectual property rights, enforcing those patents, trademarks and other rights may be costly, difficult and time consuming. Patent law relating to the scope of claims in the industry in which we operate is subject to rapid change and constant evolution and, consequently, patent positions in our industry can be uncertain. Even if successful, litigation to defend our patents and trademarks against challenges or to enforce our intellectual property rights could be expensive and time consuming and could divert management’s attention from managing our business. Moreover, we may not have sufficient resources or desire to defend our patents or trademarks against challenges or to enforce our intellectual property rights. Litigation also puts our patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly and our patent applications at risk of not issuing. Additionally, we may provoke third parties to assert claims against us. We may not prevail in any lawsuits that we initiate, and the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, may not be commercially valuable. The occurrence of any of these events may harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
34
Our business may suffer if it is alleged or found that our products infringe the intellectual property rights of others.
Our industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and by litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. Moreover, in recent years, individuals and groups have purchased patents and other intellectual property assets for the purpose of making claims of infringement in order to extract settlements from companies like ours. To date we have received no claims with respect to our infringement of intellectual property or patents but, in the future, third parties may claim that we are infringing upon their patents or other intellectual property rights. In addition, we may be or may become contractually obligated to indemnify our utility customers or other third parties that use or resell our products in the event our products are alleged to infringe a third-party’s intellectual property rights. Responding to such claims, regardless of their merit, can be time consuming, costly to defend in litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, damage our reputation and brand, and cause us to incur significant expenses. Even if we are indemnified against such costs, the indemnifying party may be unable to uphold its contractual obligations. Further, claims of intellectual property infringement might require us to redesign affected products, delay affected product offerings, enter into costly settlement or license agreements or pay costly damage awards or face a temporary or permanent injunction prohibiting us from marketing, selling or distributing the affected products. If we cannot or do not license the alleged infringed technology on reasonable terms or at all, or substitute similar technology from another source, our revenue and earnings could be adversely impacted. Additionally, our utility customers may not purchase our products if they are concerned that our products infringe third-party intellectual property rights. This could reduce the market opportunity for the sale of our products and services. The occurrence of any of these events may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our proprietary information, the value of our technology and products could be adversely affected.
In addition to patented technology, we rely on our unpatented technology, trade secrets and know-how. We generally seek to protect this information by confidentiality, non-disclosure and assignment of invention agreements with our officers, employees, contractors and other service providers and with parties with which we do business. These agreements may be breached, which breach may result in the misappropriation of such information, and we may not have adequate remedies for any such breach. We cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent unauthorized use or reverse engineering of our technology.
Moreover, our trade secrets may be disclosed to or otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors. To the extent that our officers, employees, contractors, other service providers, or other third parties with whom we do business use intellectual property owned by others in their work for us, disputes may arise as to the rights in related or resulting know-how and inventions. If, for any of the above reasons, our intellectual property is disclosed or misappropriated, it would harm our ability to protect our rights and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We use open-source software in our products and services that may subject our products and services to general release or require us to re-engineer our products and services, which may cause harm to our business.
We use open-source software in connection with our products and services. From time to time, companies that incorporate open-source software into their products have faced claims challenging the ownership of open-source software and/or compliance with open source license terms. Therefore, we could be subject to suits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open-source software or noncompliance with open-source licensing terms. Some open-source software licenses require users who distribute open-source software as part of their software to publicly disclose all or part of the source code to such software and/or make available any derivative works of the open-source code on unfavorable terms or at no cost. While we monitor the use of open source software in our products and services and try to ensure that none is used in a manner that would require us to disclose the source code to the related product or that would otherwise breach the terms of an open source agreement, such use could inadvertently occur and we may be required to release our proprietary source code, pay damages for breach of contract, re-engineer our products, discontinue the sale of our products in the event re-engineering cannot be accomplished on a timely basis or take other remedial action that may divert resources away from our development efforts, any of which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
35
Intellectual property rights do not necessarily address all potential threats to our competitive advantage.
The degree of future protection afforded by our intellectual property rights is uncertain because intellectual property rights have limitations, and may not adequately protect our business, or permit us to maintain our competitive advantage. The following examples are illustrative:
| ● | others may be able to make devices that are the same as or similar to our remote radios but that are not covered by the claims of the patents that we own; |
| ● | we or any collaborators might not have been the first to make the inventions covered by the issued patents or pending patent applications that we own; |
| ● | we might not have been the first to file patent applications covering certain of our inventions; |
| ● | others may independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate any of our technologies without infringing our intellectual property rights; |
| ● | it is possible that our pending patent applications will not lead to issued patents; |
| ● | issued patents that we own may not provide us with any competitive advantages, or may be held invalid or unenforceable as a result of legal challenges; |
| ● | our competitors might conduct research and development activities in the U.S. and other countries that provide a safe harbor from patent infringement claims for certain research and development activities, as well as in countries where we do not have patent rights, and then use the information learned from such activities to develop competitive products for sale in our major commercial markets; and |
| ● | we may not develop additional proprietary technologies that are patentable. |
Risks Related to our Financial Results
We will need to generate significant sales to achieve profitable operations.
We intend to increase our operating expenses substantially in connection with the planned expansion of our business, establishment of our sales and marketing infrastructure, our ongoing research and development activities, and the commensurate development of our management and administrative functions, but there is no guarantee that we will succeed in these endeavors. We will need to generate significant sales to achieve profitability, and we might not be able to do so. Even if we do generate significant sales, we might not be able to achieve, sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If our sales grow more slowly than we expect, or if our operating expenses exceed our expectations, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Our future profitability may be dependent upon achieving cost reductions and projected economies of scale from increasing manufacturing quantities of our products. Failing to achieve such reductions in manufacturing costs and projected economies of scale could materially adversely affect our business.
We do not know whether or when we will be able to develop efficient, low-cost manufacturing capabilities and processes that will enable us to manufacture (or contract for the manufacture of) these products in commercial quantities while meeting the volume, speed, quality, price, engineering, design and production standards required to successfully market our products. Our failure to develop such manufacturing processes and capabilities in locations that can efficiently service our markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Our future profitability is, in part, dependent upon achieving increased savings from volume purchases of raw materials and component parts, achieving acceptable manufacturing yield and capitalizing on machinery efficiencies. We expect our suppliers to experience a sharp increase in demand for their products. As a result, we may not have reliable access to supplies that we require or be able to purchase such materials or components at cost effective prices. There is no assurance that we will ever be in a position to realize any material, labor and machinery cost reductions associated with higher purchasing power and higher production levels. Failure to achieve these cost reductions could adversely impact our business and financial results.
36
If business growth falls short of expectations, we may need to obtain additional capital to fund our growth, operations, and obligations.
We may require additional capital to fund our growth, operations, and obligations if our growth plan falls short or takes more time than we anticipate. As our business has grown, we have managed periods of tight liquidity by accessing capital from our stockholders and their affiliates. Our capital requirements will depend on several factors, including:
| ● | our ability to enter into new agreements with customers or to extend the terms of our existing agreements with customers, and the terms of such agreements; |
| ● | the success of our sales efforts; |
| ● | our working capital requirements related to the costs of inventory and accounts receivable; |
| ● | costs of recruiting and retaining qualified personnel; |
| ● | expenditures and investments to implement our business strategy; and |
| ● | the identification and successful completion of acquisitions. |
We may seek additional funds through equity or debt offerings and/or borrowings under notes payable, lines of credit or other sources. We do not know whether additional financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms or at all, when needed. For example, increases in interest rates could negatively impact the costs of seeking additional funds through debt offerings and/or borrowings. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on commercially acceptable terms, our ability to fund our operations, support the growth of our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures could be significantly delayed or limited, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our revenue is not predictable and recognition of a significant portion of it will be deferred into future periods.
Once a customer decides to move forward with a large-scale deployment of our products and services, the timing of and our ability to recognize related revenue will depend on several factors, some of which may not be under our control. These factors include shipment schedules that may be delayed or subject to modification, the rate at which our utility customers choose to deploy our products in their network, customer acceptance of all or any part of our products and services, our contractual commitments to provide new or enhanced functionality at some point in the future, other contractual provisions such as liquidated damages, our suppliers’ ability to provide an adequate supply of components, the requirement to obtain regulatory approval, and our ability to deliver quality products according to expected schedules. In light of these factors, the application of complex revenue recognition rules to our products and services has required us to defer, and in the future will likely continue to require us to defer, a significant amount of revenue until undetermined future periods. It may be difficult to predict the amount of revenue that we will recognize in any given period and amounts recognized may fluctuate significantly from one period to the next.
We are exposed to currency exchange rate fluctuations because a proportion of our assets, liabilities and earnings are denominated in foreign currencies.
We present our financial statements in U.S. dollars (“USD”), but our subsidiaries conducts a significant portion of its operations outside of the U.S., which also operate in their respective local currencies, and we hold a proportion of our net assets and generate income in non-USD currencies, the most significant of which are currently the Israeli New Shekel, the Eurozone Euro, the Singapore Dollar and the Emirati Dirham. Consequently, a depreciation of non-USD currencies relative to the USD could have an adverse impact on financial results. National and regional differences in monetary policy may cause the value of the non-USD currencies to fluctuate against the USD. Currency volatility contributes to variations in our revenue and expenses in foreign currency jurisdictions. Because our financial statements continue to be presented in U.S. dollars, the local currencies of our subsidiaries will be translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates for inclusion in our Consolidated Financial Statements, thereby increasing the foreign exchange translation risk. Accordingly, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
37
If our internal controls over financial reporting or our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, prevent fraud or file our periodic reports in a timely manner, which may cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and may lead to a decline in our stock price.
As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) requires that we evaluate and determine the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and provide a management report on the internal control over financial reporting. Our testing, or the subsequent testing by our independent public accounting firm, may reveal deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses. If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, or if we or our accounting firm identify deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our stock would likely decline and we could be subject to lawsuits, sanctions or investigations by regulatory authorities, including SEC enforcement actions, and we could be required to restate our financial results, any of which would require additional financial and management resources.
If material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur in the future, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and we could be required to restate our financial results, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, restrict our ability to access the capital markets, require us to expend significant resources to correct the material weakness, subject us to fines, penalties or judgments, harm our reputation or otherwise cause a decline in investor confidence.
We continue to invest in more robust technology and resources to manage those reporting requirements. Implementing the appropriate changes to our internal controls may distract our officers and employees, result in substantial costs and require significant time to complete. Any difficulties or delays in implementing these controls could impact our ability to timely report our financial results. For these reasons, we may encounter difficulties in the timely and accurate reporting of our financial results, which would impact our ability to provide our investors with information in a timely manner. As a result, our investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and our stock price could decline.
In addition, any such changes do not guarantee that we will be effective in maintaining the adequacy of our internal controls, and any failure to maintain that adequacy could prevent us from accurately reporting our financial results.
Risks Related to our Common Stock
Our stock price has been and may continue to be volatile, and the value of an investment in our common stock may decline.
The trading price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors could include:
| ● | additions or departures of key personnel; |
| ● | changes in laws or regulations affecting our industry; |
| ● | changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts; |
| ● | the increasing prominence of new technologies, including AI, in the markets in which we compete; |
| ● | any major change in our Board or management; |
| ● | general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of our markets; and |
| ● | political instability, natural disasters, pandemics, war, and/or events of terrorism. |
From time to time, we estimate the timing of the accomplishment of various commercial and other product development goals or milestones. Also, from time to time, we expect that we will publicly announce the anticipated timing of some of these milestones. All of these milestones are based on a variety of assumptions. The actual timing of these milestones can vary dramatically compared to our estimates, in some cases for reasons beyond our control. If we do not meet these milestones as publicly announced, our stock price may decline.
In addition, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of publicly traded companies. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. These fluctuations may be even more pronounced in the trading market for our stock. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. This litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.
38
We may issue more shares to raise additional capital, which may result in substantial dilution.
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of a maximum of 800,000,000 shares of common stock. Any additional financings effected by us may result in the issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and the substantial dilution in the percentage of common stock held by our then existing stockholders. In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may be higher or lower than the price per share of our common stock at that time. Also, we have reserved 61,000,000 and 3,333,334 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to future awards under the Ondas Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2021 Plan”) and 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2018 Plan”), respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the number of securities remaining available for future issuance under the 2021 Plan and 2018 Plan is 27,091,223 and 72,550 shares of common stock, respectively. The issuance of such additional shares of common stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, may cause the price of our common stock to decline. Additionally, if all or a substantial portion of these shares are resold into the public markets then the trading price of our common stock may decline.
Our Board may issue and fix the terms of shares of our preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock or any change in control of our Company.
Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, with such designation rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board. Our Board is empowered, without the need to obtain stockholder approval, to issue shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. In the event of such issuances, the preferred stock could be used, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our common stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business, which research and reports are not and would not be subject to our control. If industry analysts cease coverage of our company, the trading price for our stock could be materially and adversely impacted. Also, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price may be materially and adversely impacted. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which might cause our stock price and trading volume to decline.
We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock nor are we under any obligation to declare or pay such cash dividends. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund our operations and the development and growth of our business, and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Our future ability to pay cash dividends on our capital stock may be limited by any future debt instruments or preferred securities. As a result, you may only receive a return on your investment in our common stock if the market price of our common stock increases to a price above the price you paid for them and you sell such shares.
39
If our shares become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on Nasdaq and if the price of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling shares.
Certain provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and Nevada law make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire us and make a takeover more difficult to complete, even if such a transaction were in the stockholders’ best interest.
Certain provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and Nevada law make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire us and make a takeover more difficult to complete, even if such a transaction were in the stockholders’ best interest. For example, Nevada law provides that approval of two-thirds of the stockholders is required to remove a director, which may make it more difficult for a third-party to gain control of the Company. This concentration of ownership limits the power to exercise control by our minority stockholders.
Our bylaws designate the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County of the State of Nevada as the sole and exclusive forum for certain actions, which could limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers, or other employees and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.
Unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County of the State of Nevada (the “Court”) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any Director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company, any director or the Company’s officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), Chapters 78 or 92A of the NRS or our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or our Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company, any director or the Company’s officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine. However, each of these clauses (i) through (iv) will not apply to any claim (x) as to which the Court determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court within ten (10) days following such determination), (y) for which the Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or (z) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court, including pursuant to Section 27 of the Exchange Act, which provides for exclusive federal jurisdiction over suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provides for concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, and as such the exclusive jurisdiction clauses set forth above would not apply to such suits.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity
Risk management and strategy
We rely on our information technology to operate our business. We have policies and processes designed to protect our information technology systems, some of which are managed by third parties, and resolve issues in a timely manner in the event of a cybersecurity threat or incident.
As part of our broader risk management framework, we have identified the potential cybersecurity risks to our business and implemented structured controls to mitigate them. Our business applications and hosting services are designed to minimize the impact of cybersecurity incidents, with designated backup systems in place where necessary.
We maintain an information security management system aligned with ISO 27001 standards (“ISO”), which supports a structured approach to managing cybersecurity risks and aligning with industry best practices. Our controls include administrative, technical, and operational measures such as monitoring and detection activities, anti-malware and endpoint protection solutions, employee training, and periodic third-party assessments.
We have a Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan (CIRP) that defines roles, responsibilities, and reporting mechanisms, as well as a structured incident response process covering preparation, detection, response, documentation, and post-incident analysis. This plan outlines possible cybersecurity threats and response measures for incidents such as denial-of-service attacks, malicious code attacks, website defacement, data corruption, and data leakage. In addition, we maintain a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) in accordance with ISO to ensure operational resilience, including detailed continuity procedures, system restoration timeframes, and recovery strategies for various scenarios.
To address cybersecurity
risks associated with third-party service providers, we have established procedures, policies, and tools for identifying, assessing, and
mitigating potential threats. This process begins with a third-party risk assessment, which is performed prior to onboarding service providers
and updated as needed. Our Information Security Guidelines for Suppliers ensure compliance with security standards, while our Access Control
Policies regulate third-party access to sensitive systems, and our Cloud System Information Security Procedures govern data security in
cloud environments. We also engage

PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “ONDS”. As of March 25, 2026, there were 89 holders of record of Ondas common stock.
We have never declared nor paid any cash dividends to stockholders. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future, and currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund our operations and the development and growth of our business. The declaration of any future cash dividend, if any, would be at the discretion of our Board (subject to limitations imposed under applicable Nevada law) and would depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions.
Unregistered Sales of Securities
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company issued shares of its common stock and other equity linked-securities in transactions that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These issuances occurred primarily in connection with business combination transactions and private financing arrangements. All sales of unregistered securities during the year ended December 31, 2025 were previously disclosed in a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Current Report on Form 8-K except the following.
The shares of common stock that were issued and exchanged for shares of OAS common stock, pursuant to those certain exchange agreements, by and between the Company, OAS and certain holders of OAS securities (the “OAS Exchange”), were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Regulation D thereunder. Refer to Note 12, OAS Exchange, for a description of the OAS Exchange.
The Company did not sell any unregistered equity securities to the public during the fiscal year. All unregistered issuances were made in reliance on available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and no underwriters were involved in such transactions.
Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers
None during the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Overview
Ondas, Inc.

Revenue, net increased $43.5 million to $50.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Revenues in our OAS segment increased by $44.5 million, primarily due to $26.9 million in revenue generated by companies acquired during the year. OAS revenue also increased by $17.6 million attributable to Airobotics, of which approximately $16.4 million relates to product sales and approximately $1.2 million relates to service revenue from sales of our Optimus System™ and Iron Drone Raider™. These increases were offset by a decrease of $952 thousand in Ondas Networks revenue, primarily related to decreased development revenue.
Cost of goods sold increased to $30.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $23.7 million increase was primarily due to activity from acquisitions and an increase in revenues discussed above, in addition to increased labor and material costs.
Gross margin percentage increased to 40% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 5% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The 35% increase in gross margin percentage is primarily due to the more favorable mix of revenue, with significant increases in revenue generated by product sales offsetting fixed service delivery costs at OAS.
General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) increased $27.3 million, or 159%, to $44.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $17.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase is primarily due to (i) an increase of $11.7 million in stock-based compensation for awards granted during the year; (ii) an increase of $6.5 million in human resource costs, including benefits from increased headcount as we build out our management team; (iii) an increase of $4.9 million in professional fees and consulting costs primarily related to legal, accounting and due diligence fees associated with the acquisitions completed during the year; and (iv) an increase of $4.7 million related to general and administrative expense attributable to companies acquired during the year. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $435 thousand primarily in rent and facilities charges.
Sales and marketing expenses (“S&M”) increased $7.9 million, or 147%, to $13.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $5.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase is primarily due to (i) an increase of $4.1 million in human resource costs, including benefits from increased headcount and an increase in taxable fringe benefit expense; (ii) an increase of $1.3 million in other S&M costs primarily related to increased marketing and advertising costs, use of third-party contractors and consultants, and increased attendance at trade shows and other marketing events; and (iii) an in increase of $2 million related to S&M attributable to companies acquired during the year. The remaining increase of $567 thousand is related to increased stock-based compensation for awards granted during the year and increased travel and entertainment costs.
Research and development expenses (“R&D”) increased $8.4 million, or 67%, to $20.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $12.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, of which $3 million related to companies acquired during the year ended December 31, 2025. Other increases in R&D include, (i) an increase of $2.8 million in human resource costs, including benefits from increased headcount, and (ii) an increase of $1.8 million in other R&D costs primarily related to increased cloud-based software expenses, use of third-party consultants and allocation of general expenses to research and development, and a one-time settlement of all amounts due to a vendor under previous development and manufacturing agreements, which reduced other R&D costs for the year ended December 31, 2024. The remaining increase of $862 thousand is related to increased stock-based compensation for awards granted during the year and increased travel and entertainment costs.
Total other expense, net increased $71.1 million, or 2,093%, to $74.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Total other expense, net increased primarily as a result of the net loss of $82.2 million related to the change in fair value of our warrant liability, an increase of approximately $2.9 million in interest expense, amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs, and an increase in other expense of approximately $299 thousand from the change in fair value of government grant liability. This was offset by the increase of approximately $14.3 million in interest and dividend income and unrealized gain on our equity security investments from the cash raised from our equity offerings consummated in 2025.
45
The Company recorded income tax expense of $488 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, and an income tax provision of $0 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The 2025 income tax expense is attributable to earnings in foreign jurisdictions.
Net loss increased $95.4 million, or 251%, to $133.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from $38 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, $1.4 million of net loss was attributable to noncontrolling interests (“NCI”), related to the subsidiaries in which we acquired less than 100% ownership during 2025. These subsidiaries incurred operating losses due to early-stage operating performance. Net loss per share of common stock basic and diluted was $(0.62) and $(0.61) for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
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, 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.

The principal use of cash in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was to fund the Company’s current expenses primarily related to operating activities necessary to allow us to service and support customers for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The increase in cash flows used in operating activities of $5.3 million primarily relates to an increase in net loss of $95.4 million, of which approximately $96.6 million related to non-cash charges and credits, which primarily includes investment gains, change in fair value of warrant liability, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, and stock-based compensation, offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities resulting in a cash outflow of approximately $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The increase in cash flows used in investing activities of $258.4 million primarily relates to cash paid, net of cash acquired, for acquisitions of $206.8 million, purchases of long-term equity investments of $35.6 million, and purchases of short-term investments of $15.4 million.
The increase in cash provided by financing activities of $812.5 million primarily relates to the net proceeds of approximately $829.5 million received from equity offerings consummated in 2025, during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the net proceeds received from the sale of Common Stock in the Company of approximately $7.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, combined with proceeds of approximately $1.2 million from the exercise of warrants in OAS, the increase in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants of approximately $30.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2025. These increases were partially offset by the decrease in net proceeds of $37.3 million from the issuance of notes payable and convertible notes payable and a decrease in net proceeds of $4.4 million from the sale of preferred stock in Ondas Networks during the year ended December 31, 2024.
47
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have incurred losses since inception and have funded our operations primarily through debt and the sale of capital stock. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $368.4 million. On December 31, 2025, we had net long-term borrowings outstanding of approximately $3.8 million and short-term borrowings outstanding of approximately $9.4 million, including accrued interest of $721 thousand. On December 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of approximately $594.4 million and working capital of $544 million. We had $38.7 million of net cash flows used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2025.
In 2025, we raised $829.5 million of net proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrants, $30.8 million from the exercise of stock options and warrants, $1.2 million from the exercise of warrants in OAS, and $923 thousand from issuance of convertible notes in Ondas Networks (collectively referred to as the “2025 Offerings”).
In January 2026, we raised approximately $1 billion in gross proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrants in the Company.
We expect to fund our operations for the next twelve months from the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K from the cash on hand as of December 31, 2025, proceeds from the 2026 financing activity discussed above, gross profits generated from revenue growth, potential prepayments from customers for purchase orders, potential proceeds from warrants issued and outstanding, and additional funds that we may seek through equity or debt offerings and/or borrowings under additional notes payable, lines of credit or other sources.
Our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including progress with developing, manufacturing and marketing our technologies, the time and costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining and enforcing patent claims and other proprietary rights, our ability to establish collaborative arrangements, marketing activities and competing technological and market developments, including regulatory changes and overall economic conditions in our target markets. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability requires us to successfully market and secure purchase orders for our products and services from customers currently identified in our sales pipeline as well as new customers. We also will be required to efficiently manufacture and deliver equipment on those purchase orders. These activities, including our planned research and development efforts, will require significant uses of working capital. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenue and cash as expected in our current business plan. We may seek additional funds through equity or debt offerings and/or borrowings under additional notes payable, lines of credit or other sources. We do not know whether additional financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms or at all when needed. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on commercially acceptable terms, our ability to fund our operations, support the growth of our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures could be significantly delayed or limited, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial conditions, or results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2025, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the financial statements. Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if (1) the estimate requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. We base our estimates and judgments on our experience, our current knowledge, our beliefs of what could occur in the future, our observation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and information available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
48
The accounting estimates discussed below represent those estimates that management believes are critical to an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations.
Acquired intangible assets. During 2025, we completed multiple acquisitions that were accounted for as business combinations under ASC 805. Business combination accounting requires significant judgment in estimating the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, redeemable noncontrolling interests, and goodwill as of the acquisition date. Acquired intangible assets, such as developed technology, customer relationships, trade names, and non-compete agreements, which are valued using income-based valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow, relief-from-royalty, and multi-period excess earnings methods, or cost-based techniques. These techniques require assumptions regarding future revenues, customer attrition, royalty rates, useful lives, and discount rates. Because the fair value measurements recorded in connection with these acquisitions resulted in significant balances of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, and affect our future amortization expense and potential impairment assessments, relatively small changes in key assumptions could materially impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities may arise from differences between the assigned fair values of acquired assets and their tax bases. Estimation related to these assets and liabilities requires judgment regarding applicable tax laws, tax rates, and the realizability of deferred tax assets. Noncontrolling interests are measured at fair value at the acquisition date using valuation techniques consistent with those applied to the acquired business. Redeemable noncontrolling interests are classified outside of permanent equity and subsequently adjusted to redemption value, requiring ongoing judgment related to accretion amounts and income or loss attribution. Changes in underlying assumptions could result in material changes to the recorded purchase price allocation, goodwill, or future amortization expense.
Impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. As of December 31, 2025, goodwill represented a significant portion of our total assets. Our goodwill impairment analysis requires judgment in identifying reporting units and assessing qualitative and quantitative impairment indicators.
The carrying values of property and equipment and other finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If impairment indicators are present, we determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized by testing the applicable asset or asset group’s carrying value for recoverability. This assessment requires the exercise of judgment in assessing the future use of and projected value to be derived from the eventual disposal of the assets to be held and used. Assessments also consider changes in asset utilization, including the temporary idling of capacity and the expected timing for placing this capacity back into production. If the carrying value of the assets is not recoverable, then a loss is recorded for the difference between the assets’ fair value and respective carrying value. The fair value of the assets is determined using an “income approach” based upon a forecast of all the expected discounted future net cash flows associated with the subject assets. Some of the more significant estimates and assumptions include: market size and growth, market share, projected selling prices, manufacturing cost and discount rate. Our estimates are based upon historical experience, commercial relationships, market conditions and available external information about future trends.
Valuation of Government Grant Liability. We receive research and development grants from the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”). These grants are royalty-bearing and are recognized as a liability rather than income. The government grant liability is initially and subsequently measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model. Significant assumptions include the financial statement classification, projected future revenues from products developed with grant funding, royalty rates, timing of payments, and discount rates. The liability is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Because the valuation depends on commercialization success and future sales volumes, changes in assumptions may materially affect our results of operations.
49
Valuation of Warrant Liabilities. Certain warrants issued in connection with equity and debt financings are classified as liabilities and measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value is determined using either option-pricing models, including Monte Carlo simulations and Black-Scholes-Merton. These models require assumptions regarding common stock volatility, risk-free interest rates, expected term, and stock price. Due to the sensitivity of these assumptions, changes in market conditions or estimates can result in significant volatility in earnings.
Fair Value of Investments. We hold investments, including investments without readily determinable fair values. Investments with observable market prices are measured using quoted prices, while other investments are valued using models that incorporate unobservable inputs. These valuation techniques require judgment regarding expected cash flows, volatility, discount rates, and the likelihood of liquidity events. Changes in assumptions or market conditions could result in material changes to the carrying value of our investments and related unrealized gains or losses.
Revenue Recognition. We enter into complex customer arrangements that may include development services, system integration, deployment, and ongoing support. Revenue recognition requires judgment in identifying distinct performance obligations, determining whether revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, and measuring progress toward completion. For development and long-term service arrangements, revenue is generally recognized over time using cost-to-cost or milestone-based methods. These methods require estimates of total expected costs, project timelines, and the achievement of contractual milestones. Revisions to these estimates may result in changes to the amount or timing of revenue recognized.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense. We calculate stock-based compensation expense for option awards (“Stock-based Award(s)”) based on the estimated grant/issue date fair value using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes Model”) and recognize the expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We account for forfeitures as they occur. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the vesting period in determining the fair value of Stock-based Awards. The expected term is based on the “simplified method.” Under this method, the term is estimated using the weighted average of the service vesting period and contractual term of the option award. As the Company does not yet have sufficient history of its own volatility, the Company has identified several public entities of similar complexities and industry and calculates historical volatility based on the volatilities of these companies. Although we believe our assumptions used to calculate share-based compensation expense are reasonable, these assumptions can involve complex judgments about future events, which are open to interpretation and inherent uncertainty. In addition, significant changes to our assumptions could significantly impact the amount of expense recorded in a given period.
We recognize restricted stock unit expense over the period of vesting or period that services will be provided. Compensation associated with shares of Common Stock issued or to be issued to consultants and other non-employees is recognized over the expected service period beginning on the measurement date, which is generally the time the Company and the service provider enter into a commitment whereby the Company agrees to grant shares in exchange for the services to be provided.
Income Taxes. As part of the process of preparing our Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Our provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes. A current liability is recorded for the estimated taxes payable for the current year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the timing differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates or tax laws are recognized in the provision for income taxes in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more-likely-than-not to be realized. Changes in valuation allowances will flow through the statement of operations unless related to deferred tax assets that expire unutilized or are modified through translation, in which case both the deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance are similarly adjusted. Where a valuation allowance was established through purchase accounting for acquired deferred tax assets, any future change will be credited or charged to income tax expense.

On July 4, 2025, an act to provide for reconciliation to title II of H. Con. Res. 14 (known commonly as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”)) was enacted into law. The OBBBA includes eliminating the requirement to capitalize U.S. R&D, permanent extension of certain provisions of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act of 2017 and other corporate tax impacts. The Company has considered the impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements and concluded it is immaterial. Refer to Note 16 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion related to Tax Reform.
The determination of our provision for income taxes requires significant judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. In the ordinary course of our business, there are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. In spite of our belief that we have appropriate support for all the positions taken on our tax returns, we acknowledge that certain positions may be successfully challenged by the taxing authorities. We determine the tax benefits more likely than not to be recognized with respect to uncertain tax positions. Although we believe our recorded tax assets and liabilities are reasonable, tax laws and regulations are subject to interpretation and inherent uncertainty; therefore, our assessments can involve both a series of complex judgments about future events and rely on estimates and assumptions. Although we believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable, the final determination could be materially different than that which is reflected in our provision for income taxes and recorded tax assets and liabilities.
Complex Derivative Financial Instruments. From time to time, we issue convertible debt, convertible preferred stock, common stock purchase warrants, and other freestanding financial instruments which may be accounted for as liabilities and recorded at fair value each reporting period. Due to the complexity of certain agreements, we may use an outside expert to assist in measuring the fair value of these liabilities. The valuation techniques may require judgment regarding estimates about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior. These assumptions may involve complex judgments about future events, which are open to interpretation with inherent uncertainty. In addition, significant changes to our assumptions could significantly impact these fair value estimates and the resulting changes in fair value recognized within earnings in a given period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements and SEC Rules
Refer to Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for recently adopted accounting pronouncements and SEC rules and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as of the date of this report.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1) and are not required to provide information under this item.
Although we are not required to provide the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk required by this Item, we are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business.
Interest Rate Risk. As of December 31, 2025, we held significant cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. These balances are primarily invested in cash accounts, money market instruments, and short-term, investment-grade securities. As a result, changes in interest rates may affect the amount of interest income we earn. Due to the short-term nature and conservative investment profile of these instruments, we do not believe that a hypothetical change in interest rates would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated- financial condition or results of operations.
Foreign Currency Risk. We conduct a portion of our operations outside the United States and are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily related to the Israeli New Shekel, Euro, and other local currencies. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may affect our operating results and the U.S. dollar value of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. We do not currently use derivative instruments to hedge foreign currency exposure.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Ondas Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ondas Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
As described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, during 2025 the Company completed the acquisitions of Sentrycs Ltd. and Robo-Team Ltd. and recorded preliminary purchase price allocations for those transactions. Management’s estimates included the fair value of consideration transferred, acquired assets and assumed liabilities, identifiable intangible assets, and goodwill. The most significant identifiable intangible assets recognized in these acquisitions included developed technology, customer relationships, trade names, and non-compete arrangements, as applicable.
F-2
We identified the accounting for these business combinations as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgment required to evaluate management’s estimates of the fair values of certain acquired assets and liabilities. In particular, significant auditor judgment was required to evaluate the valuation methodologies and significant assumptions used by management and its specialists, including forecasted financial results, royalty rates, customer attrition, useful lives, discount rates, and other assumptions.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
The principal procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included, among others:
| ● | obtaining and reading the purchase agreements and related transaction documents; |
| ● | evaluating management’s accounting conclusions regarding the accounting acquirer, acquisition date, and consideration transferred; |
| ● | obtaining an understanding of the process used by management in developing the estimates; |
| ● | testing the acquisition-date balances used in the purchase price allocations; |
| ● | evaluating the design and mathematical accuracy of management’s purchase accounting models; and |
| ● | testing the completeness and accuracy of significant data used in those models; |
| ● | with the assistance of valuation professionals employed by our firm, we evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies and tested significant assumptions used in the valuations by comparing them to historical performance, market data, executed contracts, and post-acquisition developments, where relevant. |

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned, controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements present the Company’s historical financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Events occurring subsequent to December 31, 2025 have been evaluated for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and noncontrolling interests are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets result from the Company’s acquisition of existing businesses. In accordance with accounting standards related to business combinations, goodwill is not amortized; however, certain finite-lived identifiable intangible assets, primarily customer relationships and acquired technology, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized. The Company reviews identified intangible assets and goodwill for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company also tests intangible assets with indefinite lives and goodwill for impairment at least annually. Refer to Notes 6 and 7 for additional information about the Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets.
F-9
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives revenues primarily from the Ondas Networks and OAS products and services. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services (the transaction price). A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer and is the unit of account under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Significant judgments related to revenue recognition include the determination of performance obligations, the timing of transfer of control, and the selection of appropriate methods to measure progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations.
Product Revenues
Product revenues are generated from the sale of hardware and related products. For product sales, control generally transfers to the customer at a point in time. In determining when control transfers, the Company considers, among other indicators, whether it has a present right to payment, legal title has transferred, the customer has obtained the significant risks and rewards of ownership, and customer acceptance has occurred, where acceptance is not considered a formality. The Company’s principal shipping terms are Free On Board (“FOB”) Shipping Point, or equivalent. Generally, revenue is recognized upon shipment of the product when control transfers based on the contractual shipping terms and customer acceptance provisions. For sales arrangements with shipping terms other than FOB Shipping Point, revenue recognition is evaluated based on the specific contractual shipping terms and customer obligations. Shipping and handling activities are not assessed as separate performance obligations as they are considered fulfillment activities.
If a performance obligation related to a product sale remains unsatisfied after shipment—typically installation or customer acceptance—revenue related to that performance obligation is deferred until the obligation has been satisfied. The Company estimates expected product returns at the time of sale and records them as a reduction of revenue. Customer allowances and rebates, consisting primarily of volume discounts and other short-term incentive programs, are accounted for as variable consideration and recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time of sale. Estimates of product returns, customer allowances, and rebates are based on historical experience, current trends, and known contractual terms.
Revenue related to extended warranty and service arrangements is recognized over the term of the arrangement, as control of the services transfers to the customer over time. Revenue from other long-term product-related contracts is recognized over time using a cost-to-cost input method, which measures progress based on costs incurred relative to total estimated costs, provided the criteria for over-time recognition under ASC 606 are met. This method requires management to make estimates of total expected costs, which are reviewed and updated periodically and may change as the contract progresses.
Service Revenues
Service revenues consist primarily of (i) routine support and maintenance services, (ii) product training, installation, and onsite deployment services, and (iii) engineering and professional services related to the development and customization of software and hardware applications. Support and maintenance services represent stand-ready obligations to provide ongoing technical support and updates and are recognized ratably over the service period, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services. Training, installation, and onsite deployment services are generally distinct performance obligations that are recognized at a point in time, when the related services have been performed and control has transferred to the customer. Engineering and professional services are recognized over time, as the services create or enhance assets that the customer controls or have no alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenue for these arrangements is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method, under which revenue is recognized based on the ratio of actual costs incurred to total estimated costs. Management has determined that this method provides the best measure of progress toward satisfaction of the related performance obligations.
For arrangements containing multiple service performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price, as stated in the Company’s contracts.
F-10
Development Revenues
Development revenues are derived from customer contracts that include research, development, and engineering services. These arrangements include substantive, contractually defined development milestones, each of which represents a measure of progress toward satisfaction of the related performance obligation. Revenue from development arrangements is recognized upon achievement of the applicable milestone, as milestone achievement corresponds with the transfer of control of the underlying services to the customer. The Company has determined that the use of milestone achievement as an output method provides a faithful depiction of performance in accordance with ASC 606. These arrangements include substantive, contractually defined development milestones, each of which represents a measure of progress toward satisfaction of a performance obligation and is not contingent solely upon billing or customer funding events.
Remaining Performance Obligations
The Company discloses remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of greater than one year. The Company has elected the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14 and therefore does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less and (ii) performance obligations for which revenue is recognized in the amount to which the Company has the right to invoice.
As of December 31, 2025, the
aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracts not subject to the practical expedients
described above was $
Use of Estimates
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such management estimates include those relating to allocation of consideration for business combinations to identifiable tangible and intangible assets, revenue recognition, inventory write-downs to reflect net realizable value, fair values of financial instruments and goodwill, assumptions used in the valuation of stock-based awards, derivative warrant liabilities, and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all
highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash includes
cash that is not readily available for use in the Company’s operating activities. At December 31, 2025, $
The Company periodically monitors
its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. Periodically throughout the year, and
as of December 31, 2025, the Company has maintained balances in excess of federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2025, the Company
was approximately $
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable are stated
at a gross invoice amount less an allowance for credit losses as well as net of any discounts or other forms of variable consideration.
We estimate allowance for credit losses by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates our customers may have an inability
to meet financial obligations, such as customer payment history, credit worthiness, and receivable amounts outstanding for an extended
period beyond contractual terms. We use assumptions and judgments, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record an allowance
to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These allowances are evaluated and adjusted as additional information
is received. We had allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 of $
F-11
Short-term investments
The Company’s short-term investments consist of certificates of deposit carried at amortized cost and marketable equity securities, which are measured at fair value at each reporting date, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in Other income (expense), net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable equity securities are determined using the specific identification method and are included in Other income (expense), net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date.
Inventory
Inventories, which consist
solely of raw materials, work in process and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value,
net of reserves for obsolete inventory. We continually analyze our slow-moving and excess inventories. Based on historical and projected
sales volumes and anticipated selling prices, we established reserves. Inventory that is in excess of current and projected use is reduced
by an allowance to a level that approximates its estimate of future demand. Products that are determined to be obsolete are written down
to net realizable value. On December 31, 2025 and 2024, such reserves were $

Property and Equipment
All additions, including improvements
to existing facilities, are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation of property and
equipment is principally recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives
typically are
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are evaluated whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or the useful life has changed. Such indicators include significant technological changes, adverse changes in market conditions and/or poor operating results. The carrying value of a long-lived asset group is considered impaired when the projected undiscounted future cash flows are less than its carrying value. The amount of impairment loss recognized is the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value of the asset or asset group. Fair market value is determined primarily using the projected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. There was impairment of long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
F-12
Other Assets
Other long-term assets generally consist of right-of-use assets resulting from leases, long-term portion of prepaid expenses, and refundable deposits that are not expected to be received in the next twelve months.
Other Liabilities
Other liabilities generally consist of operating lease liabilities, accrued interest, contingent consideration, long-term deferred revenue, and refundable sub-lease deposit that are not expected to be repaid in the next twelve months.
Government Grants
The Company receives government
grants from the Israel Innovation Authority (the “IIA”) to finance its research and development programs in Israel, through
which we have received IIA participation payments of $
The liability for grants received is first measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model based on forecasted future sales of the products developed using the grant funds, using a discount rate that reflects a market rate of interest. The difference between the amount of the grant received and the fair value of the liability is accounted for as a government grant and recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses.
At each reporting date, the
Company determines the fair value of the government grant liability based on
The Company made royalty payments

The Company’s royalty
liability to the IIA as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests represents the minority shareholders’ proportionate share of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries. The portion of net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is presented as net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statements of operations, and the portion of other comprehensive income (loss) of these noncontrolling interests is presented in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests represent equity interests in consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable to the Company and that are subject to redemption upon the occurrence of events that are not solely within the Company’s control, including temporary equity classified instruments and put options embedded in the noncontrolling interest.
Redeemable noncontrolling interests are initially measured at their fair value. Noncontrolling interests which are currently redeemable are measured at the greater of the amount that would be paid if settlement occurred as of the balance sheet date or the carrying amount adjusted for net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest. For noncontrolling interests which are probable of becoming redeemable, the Company uses the accretion method for instruments with fixed redemption amounts or the immediate method for instruments redeemable at fair value or based on a formula, if such amounts are greater than the carrying amount adjusted for net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest. Adjustments to the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests are recorded through additional paid-in capital.
Further information regarding the Company’s redeemable noncontrolling interests is included in Note 13 – Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests.
Derivative Warrant Liabilities
The Company classifies as equity any warrants that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) provide the Company with a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any warrants that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control), (ii) gives the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement) or (iii) that contain reset provisions that do not qualify for the scope exception. The Company assesses classification of its common stock warrants and other freestanding warrant instruments at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required.
Warrants that are determined to require equity classification are measured at fair value upon issuance and are not subsequently remeasured unless they are required to be reclassified. Warrants that are determined to require asset or liability classification are measured at fair value upon issuance and are subsequently remeasured to fair value at each balance sheet date with any change in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
Embedded Derivatives
Features embedded into contracts are assessed to determine if they represent embedded derivatives which require bifurcation and separate recognition. Embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation are accounted for at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Our financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist primarily of cash equivalents such as money market funds, and short-term investments, such as publicly traded stock and warrants exercisable for publicly traded stock. Our financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist primarily of government grant liabilities. The carrying amount of receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximates our fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. In connection with the business combinations completed during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized identifiable intangible assets, including developed technology, customer relationships, trade names, and non-compete agreements. These intangible assets were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of their respective acquisition dates in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. These measurements are not subsequently remeasured and the assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Refer to Note 14 for the fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities.
F-14
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted
for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
the related temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change
in tax rates is recognized when the rate change is enacted. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount
that will more likely than not be realized. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we recognize the effect of uncertain income tax positions only
if the positions are more likely than not of being sustained in an audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized uncertain
income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than
Stock-based Compensation
We calculate stock-based compensation expense for option awards (“Stock-based Award(s)”) based on the estimated grant/issue date fair value using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes Model”) and recognize the expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We account for forfeitures as they occur.
The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the vesting period in determining the fair value of Stock-based Awards. The expected term is based on the “simplified method”, due to the Company’s limited option exercise history. Under this method, the term is estimated using the weighted average of the service vesting period and contractual term of the option award. As the Company does not yet have sufficient history of its own volatility, the Company has identified several public entities of similar size, complexities and industry and calculates historical volatility based on the volatilities of these companies. Although we believe our assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation expense are reasonable, these assumptions can involve complex judgments about future events, which are open to interpretation and inherent uncertainty. In addition, significant changes to our assumptions could significantly impact the amount of expense recorded in a given period.
We recognize restricted stock
unit expense over the period of vesting or the period that services will be provided. Compensation associated with shares of the Company’s
Common Stock, par value $
Shipping and Handling
We expense all shipping and handling costs as incurred. These costs are included in Cost of Goods Sold on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Advertising and Promotional Expenses
We expense advertising and
promotional costs as incurred. We recognized expenses of $
Research and Development
Costs for research and development are expensed as incurred except for research and development equipment with alternative future use. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, salary-related expenses and costs of contractors and materials.
F-15
Product Warranty
We offer service-type and assurance-type warranties, the terms and conditions of which vary depending upon the product sold. For assurance-type warranties, we accrue a liability for the estimated cost of the assurance-type warranty at the time the product is sold. For service-type warranties, costs are expensed as incurred and the transaction price attributable to the service-type warranty performance obligation is recognized over the warranty period. Factors that affect our warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty liability and adjust the accrual as claims data and historical experience warrants.
Leases
Under Topic 842, Leases, operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. We determine if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at the inception of the arrangement. If we determine the arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at lease inception, we then determine whether the lease is an operating lease or a finance lease. Operating and finance leases result in recording a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For purposes of calculating operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities, we use the non-cancellable lease term plus options to extend that we are reasonably certain to take. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Our leases generally do not provide an implicit rate. As such, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. This rate is generally consistent with the interest rate we pay on borrowings under our credit facilities, as this rate approximates our collateralized borrowing capabilities over a similar term of the lease payments. We have elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities that arise from short-term (12 months or less) leases for any class of underlying assets. We have elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for any class of underlying asset.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders’ (the numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for each period (the denominator).
The computation of diluted net loss per share is similar to the computation of basic net loss per share except that the numerator may have to adjust for any dividends and income or loss associated with potentially dilutive securities that are assumed to have resulted in the issuance of shares of common stock, and the denominator may have to adjust to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential shares of common stock had been issued during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from shares of common stock issuable through stock options, warrants, restricted stock units, or convertible preferred stock. For purposes of determining diluted earnings per common share, the treasury stock method is used for stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units. Because of the net loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the impact of including this in our computation of diluted net loss per share was anti-dilutive.
The following potentially dilutive securities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures in ASC 740, Income Taxes, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, may be applied retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company first applied the ASU to the Company’s annual disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2025. The ASU will be applied prospectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. The ASU requires entities to provide disaggregated disclosures of certain categories of expenses on an annual and interim basis including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides practical expedients to simplify the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and contract assets. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes the accounting model for capitalizing internal-use software costs by replacing the project-stage approach with a principles-based recognition threshold. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which establishes authoritative guidance for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government grants received by business entities. The amendments expand Topic 832 by introducing a comprehensive accounting framework, largely based on International Accounting Standard 20, and are effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company receives royalty-bearing research and development grants from the Israel Innovation Authority that are repayable based on future sales of products developed using the grant funding. Accordingly, the Company expects that ASU 2025-10 will be applicable upon adoption and may impact the recognition and presentation of such grants, including the timing of grant income and the accounting for related royalty obligations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amendments, including the transition method to be applied, on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
F-17
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which clarifies and reorganizes existing interim reporting requirements and introduces a principle requiring disclosure of material events occurring since the end of the prior annual reporting period. The guidance is effective for interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its interim financial statements or disclosures.

Contract Assets and Liabilities
We recognize a receivable
or contract asset when we perform a service or transfer a good in advance of receiving consideration. A receivable is recorded when our
right to consideration is unconditional and only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. A contract
asset is recorded when we have recognized revenue over time in accordance with meeting our performance obligation but are unable to invoice
the customer yet based on the contractual invoicing terms. The contract asset is reclassified to a receivable when the right to consideration
becomes unconditional. Contract assets are included in Other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Goodwill Impairment
The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually on December 31, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company performed a qualitative analysis on December 31, 2025 concluding there were no indications of impairment with respect to the goodwill recorded at December 31, 2025.
In December 2024, the Company bypassed the qualitative analysis and proceeded directly to a quantitative analysis with respect to the goodwill recorded at December 31, 2024. The Company engaged a third-party service provider to carry out a valuation of the OAS reporting unit. Using a discounted cash flow model and market approach model with updated forecasts for revenue and cash flows, the Company determined that the fair value of the OAS reporting unit was higher than the carrying value as of December 31, 2024, and no impairment was necessary.

Company purchased Series B-3 Preferred Stock in Performance Drone Works (“PDW”), a veteran-led defense-technology engineer
and manufacturer of advanced robotics for mission-critical national security missions, for the aggregate price of $
These long-term equity investments
consist of equity investments in private companies through common and preferred stock. The Company accounts for these equity securities
under the measurement alternative because they do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the equity method
of accounting. Accordingly, the investments are carried at cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions
for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. The Company concluded that it does not have significant influence over either
of the investees. Amounts are classified as a long-term equity investment on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dividends or other distributions,
if and when declared by the investee, are recognized by the Company as investment income upon receipt with adjustments recognized in Other
(expense) income, net on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has determined that the equity investments do not have
a readily determinable fair value and elected the measurement alternative. Therefore, the equity investments’ carrying amount will
be adjusted to fair value at the time of the next observable price change for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer or
when an impairment is recognized. Each reporting period, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether the investment
is impaired. The assessment includes a review of recent operating results and trends, recent transactions involving the investee securities,
and other publicly available data. If the investment is impaired, the Company writes it down to its estimated fair value. impairment
charges were recognized for the year ended December 31, 2024 or 2025. As of December 31, 2025 the long-term equity investments had a carrying

SPO Convertible Capital Notes
In connection with the acquisition
of SPO (refer to Note 6), the Company assumed outstanding convertible capital notes issued by SPO (the “SPO Convertible Capital
Notes”). Immediately prior to the acquisition, the SPO Convertible Capital Notes were held entirely by the existing shareholders
of SPO. Upon acquisition,
Concurrent with the acquisition, the SPO Convertible Capital Notes were amended to include the following terms: (i) any repayment of the SPO Convertible Capital Notes is subject to prior written consent of the Company, as the majority shareholder of SPO, (ii) the Company, as the majority shareholder of SPO, has the right, at its sole discretion, to require conversion of any or all SPO Convertible Capital Notes into common shares of SPO after a minimum holding period of five years from the original issuance date of the SPO Convertible Capital Notes, but no earlier than January 1, 2027, at a conversion price reflecting the fair market value of SPO’s common shares as determined by SPO’s board of directors at the relevant time and (iii) each holder of the SPO Convertible Capital Notes may assign all or a portion of its SPO Convertible Capital Notes solely to a transferee of SPO common shares on a pro rata basis, in proportion to the number of shares transferred.
The SPO Convertible Capital Notes do not bear interest and do not have a stated maturity date. The SPO Convertible Capital Notes were accounted for as part of the business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, and were initially measured at fair value as of the acquisition date. Because the SPO Convertible Capital Notes are non-interest-bearing and their settlement is contingent upon the timing of future conversion or repayment, the Company recorded the noncontrolling interest portion of the SPO Convertible Capital Notes at a discount to face value.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the outstanding portion of the SPO Convertible Capital Notes is accounted for as a liability and measured at amortized cost. The Company accretes the discount to the SPO Convertible Capital Notes’ face value using the effective interest method, with the resulting accretion recognized as Interest expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As of December 31, 2025, the
total outstanding balance of the SPO Convertible Capital Notes subject to repayment or conversion by noncontrolling interest holders was

Stock-Based Compensation
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company
We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option model (the “Black-Scholes Model”) to determine the fair value of warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company. The Black-Scholes Model is an acceptable model in accordance with U.S GAAP. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average term of the warrant.
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the warrants. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. Our estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. We used the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of our stock price.
The Company did not issue
any warrants subject to stock-based compensation during the year ended December 31, 2025.

NOTE 14 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting standards define fair value based on an exit price model, establish a framework for measuring fair value for assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value and provide for certain disclosures related to the valuation methods used within the valuation hierarchy as established within the accounting standards. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows.
| Level 1 -- | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2 -- | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | |
| Level 3 -- | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. |
A summary of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at on a recurring basis were as follows:

Warrant liability
The fair value of the warrants was determined using Level 3 inputs in a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Inherent in the valuation were assumptions related to the expected stock-price volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the warrant term. Our estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. We used the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of our stock price. The expected term was assumed to be equivalent to the warrants’ remaining contractual term. The risk-free interest rate was estimated using the yield on actively traded non-inflation-indexed U.S. treasury securities with contract maturities equal to the expected term. The dividend yield was based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.
The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of warrants during the period were as follows:
| October 9, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | |||||||
| Stock price | $ | $ | ||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | % | % | ||||||

Non-recurring fair value measurements
In connection with the business combinations completed during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized identifiable intangible assets, including developed technology, customer relationships, trade names, and non-compete agreements. These intangible assets were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of their respective acquisition dates in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. These measurements are not subsequently remeasured and the assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.
The fair value of the acquired intangible assets was determined using valuation techniques consistent with the income approach, including discounted cash flow models such as the multi-period excess earnings method for developed technology and customer relationships, the relief-from-royalty method for trade names, and the with-and-without method for non-compete agreements.
These fair value measurements are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs, including projected future revenues, operating margins, customer attrition rates, royalty rates, and discount rates, which reflect management’s assumptions regarding the expected economic benefits derived from the acquired assets. The fair value measurements were determined as of the respective acquisition dates and represent non-recurring measurements.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, including the net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs), the Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize its existing deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the period when those temporary differences become deductible. Based on its assessment, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets as their future utilization remains uncertain at this time.
As of December 31, 2025 and
2024, the Company and Networks, respectively, had Federal NOLs of approximately $
The Company applies the FASB’s provisions for uncertain tax positions. The Company utilizes the two-step process to determine the amount of recognized tax benefit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company recognizes interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
As of December 31, 2025, management does not believe the Company has any material uncertain tax positions that would require it to measure and reflect the potential lack of sustainability of a position on audit in its financial statements. The Company will continue to evaluate its uncertain tax positions in future periods to determine if measurement and recognition in its financial statements is necessary. The Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next year.

War in Israel
On October 7, 2023, the State of Israel, where Airobotics’ main offices and facilities are located, suffered a surprise attack by hostile forces from the Gaza Strip, which led to the Security Cabinet of the State of Israel declaring a state of war in Israel. This military operation and related activities are on-going as of the date of this filing.
The Company is closely monitoring how the military operation and related activities could adversely affect its anticipated milestones and its Israel-based activities to support future operations, including the Company’s ability to import materials that are required to construct the Optimus System™ and to ship them outside of Israel. Although there have been disruptions in our business and operations, the Company has determined that there have not been any materially adverse effects on its business or operations. The Company does not believe the disruptions in its business and operations will have an enduring impact on its business and operations, but it continues to monitor the situation, as any future escalation or change could result in a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company’s Israeli office to support the Company’s activities. The Company does not have any specific contingency plans in the event of any such escalation or change.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2025. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as such date.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our senior management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our Board, senior management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We continue to review our internal control over financial reporting and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the results of this evaluation, our senior management has concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2025.
This annual report does not include an attestation report from our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, as we are a non-accelerated filer.
During 2025, we completed multiple business combinations that significantly expanded the size and complexity of our operations. As is customary following acquisitions, and permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are in the process of integrating the acquired business into our internal control framework. Management has designed and implemented controls intended to address the risks associated with these integrations and believes that such controls are operating effectively; however, these integration efforts are ongoing.
Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 excluded the internal controls of Apeiro, SPO, Insight, 4M, Sentrycs, and Robo-team, which have not yet been fully integrated into the Company’s ICFR framework. These acquired businesses represented approximately 36% of total consolidated assets and 53% of total consolidated revenues as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Management expects to include these acquired businesses in its assessment of internal control over financial reporting in the annual assessment for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
