NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stockholders’ Equity

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had 1,200,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance, of which 590,159,870 and 380,763,481 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding, respectively.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001, authorized, of which 5,000,000 shares are designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) and 5,000,000 shares are non-designated (“blank check,” together with the Series A Preferred, the “Preferred Shares”) shares. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had no preferred stock outstanding.

Stock Issued for Convertible Debt

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company issued 6,950,574 shares of its Common Stock to the lenders in lieu of cash payments for $0.2 million of outstanding interest and $6.0 million of outstanding principal on the 2022 Convertible Exchange Notes, 2023 Additional Notes, and 2024 Additional Notes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company issued 73,857,218 shares of its Common Stock to the lenders in lieu of cash payments for $2.1 million of outstanding interest and $51.2 million of outstanding principal on the 2022 Convertible Exchange Notes, 2023 Additional Notes, and 2024 Additional Notes.

Sale of Common Stock and Capital Raises

January 2026 Offering

On January 12, 2026, the Company closed on an offering (the “January 2026 Offering”) for the sale of (i) 19,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “2026 Shares”), (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 41,790,274 shares of Common Stock (the “2026 Pre-Funded Warrants”), and (iii) common warrants to purchase up to 121,580,548 shares of Common Stock (the “2026 Common Warrants”).

The January 2026 Offering price for (i) each 2026 Share and accompanying 2026 Common Warrant was $16.45 and (ii) each 2026 Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying 2026 Common Warrant was $16.45 (with all but a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per share prepaid as of the issuance date). The 2026 Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercisable and expire seven years from the issuance date. As of September 30, 2026, the 2026 Pre-Funded Warrants have been fully exercised. The 2026 Common Warrants have an exercise price of $28.00 per share, were immediately exercisable and expire seven years from the issuance date.

The 2026 Common Warrants may be settled in cash, at the option of the holders, upon a change of control event. Because share settlement of the 2026 Common Warrants is not within the Company’s control, the 2026 Common Warrants were initially classified as a liability with a fair value of $1.2 billion and the Company recognized a loss of $234.9 million. Refer to Note 12 for further discussion of the warrant liability.

The Company received net proceeds totaling $959.1 million from the January 2026 Offering after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, and excluding any proceeds that may be received from the exercise of the 2026 Common Warrants. The Company used a portion of the proceeds, and intends to use the remainder, from the offering for corporate development and strategic growth including acquisitions, joint ventures and investments.

Noncontrolling Interests

 

Noncontrolling Interest in OAS

On September 11, 2025, certain OAS warrant holders exercised their warrants for 669,643 shares of OAS Common Stock for exercise proceeds of $1.2 million, of which $0.3 million was attributed to noncontrolling interest in OAS, representing an ownership interest of approximately 0.77% in OAS. The Company retained a controlling interest of approximately 99.23% in OAS. The transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction in accordance with ASC 810-10-45-23, with no gain or loss recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for year ended December 31, 2025.

On December 17, 2025, in conjunction with the OAS Exchange, 44,643 shares of OAS Common Stock were exchanged for Common Stock, reducing the noncontrolling interest in OAS to 0.71%. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company attributed $75 thousand and $153 thousand of OAS’ net loss to the remaining noncontrolling interest in OAS, respectively. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest in OAS was $43 thousand and $0.2 million, respectively.

Noncontrolling Interest in Insight

On October 27, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of a controlling interest of 51% in Insight and recognized a noncontrolling interest for the remaining 49%. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company attributed $31 thousand of Insight’s net loss and $75 thousand of foreign currency translation losses to the noncontrolling interest in Insight. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company attributed $253 thousand of Insight’s net loss and $220 thousand of foreign currency translation gains to the noncontrolling interest in Insight. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest in Insight was $3.8 million.

Noncontrolling Interest in SPO

In connection with the acquisition of SPO, Shamir retained a noncontrolling equity interest. Shamir had the right (the “First Put Option”) to cause the Company to purchase all (but not less than all) of the remaining issued and outstanding share capital of SPO held by Shamir at a purchase price of approximately $220.69 per share including all capital notes of SPO then held by Shamir for no additional consideration. Shamir could exercise the First Put Option during the period commencing on October 15, 2025, and ending June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the First Put Option had expired.

As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value and redemption value of Shamir’s noncontrolling equity interest was $2.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company attributed $2.4 million of SPO’s net loss and $0.1 million of foreign currency translation gains to the carrying value of Shamir’s noncontrolling interest. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the noncontrolling interest was redeemable; thus, the Company recorded accretion of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 to adjust the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest to its redemption value. Upon expiration of the First Put Option, the Company reclassified the redeemable noncontrolling interest balance of $1.6 million to noncontrolling interest as of June 30, 2026. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company attributed $2.0 million of SPO's net loss and $34 thousand of foreign currency translation gains to the carrying value of Shamir's noncontrolling interest. As of September 30, 2026, the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest in SPO was ($0.4) million.

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 risk-free interest rate, and the 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.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Equity Incentive Plans

In 2018, the Company’s stockholders adopted the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, which has been subsequently amended (the “2018 Plan”), pursuant to which 3,333,334 shares of our Common Stock have been reserved for issuance to employees, including officers, directors and consultants. The 2018 Plan shall be administered by the Board, provided however, that the Board may delegate such administration to the compensation committee of the Board of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”). Subject to the provisions of the 2018 Plan, the Board and/or the Compensation Committee shall have authority to grant, in its discretion, incentive stock options, or non-statutory options, stock awards or restricted stock purchase offers (“Equity Awards”). As of September 30, 2026, the balance available to be issued under the 2018 Plan was 442,412 shares.

In 2021, the Company’s stockholders adopted the Ondas Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan, which has been subsequently amended (the “2021 Plan”), pursuant to which 81,000,000 shares of our Common Stock have been reserved for issuance to employees, including officers, directors and consultants. The purpose of the 2021 Plan is to enable the Company to attract, retain, reward, and motivate eligible individuals by providing them with an opportunity to acquire or increase a proprietary interest in the Company and to incentivize them to expend maximum efforts for the growth and success of the Company, so as to strengthen the mutuality of the interests between the eligible individuals and the stockholders of the Company. The 2021 Plan provides for the issuance of awards including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance awards. As of September 30, 2026, the balance available to be issued under the 2021 Plan was 1,653,761 shares.

Stock Options to Purchase Common Stock

The Company awards stock options to certain employees, directors, and consultants, which represent the right to purchase common shares on the date of exercise at a stated exercise price. Stock options granted to employees generally vest over a two to four-year period and are contingent on ongoing employment. Compensation expense related to these awards is recognized straight-line over the applicable vesting period. Stock options granted to consultants are subject to the attainment of pre-established performance conditions. The actual number of shares subject to the award is determined at the end of the performance period and may range from zero to 100% of the target shares granted depending upon the terms of the award. Compensation expense related to these awards is recognized when the performance conditions are satisfied.

The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Model are set forth in the table below.
