NEW YORK, June 30, 2026, 11:05 EDT
- Ondas Inc. NASDAQ:ONDS was up 3.4% at $8.295 at 10:49 a.m. EDT, with 28.2 million shares traded and an intraday range of $8.15 to $8.80.
- A June 26 SEC filing registered 3.38 million acquisition-linked shares for resale, equal to about 0.64% of the share count used in the filing and about 12% of Tuesday morning volume.
- The supply test follows more than $150 million of second-quarter-to-date orders and a Q1 pro forma backlog of $457 million.
Ondas Inc. NASDAQ:ONDS rose on Tuesday, but the cleaner trade in the stock may be in the share math, not the latest drone headline.
The stock was up 3.4% at $8.295 at 10:49 a.m. EDT, after touching $8.80 earlier in the session. Volume was 28.2 million shares, already heavy enough to make the June 26 resale registration less daunting than the headline number first looks.
Ondas registered 3,378,084 shares for resale by selling stockholders tied to the Omnisys and World View deals. The company said it will not receive proceeds from those sales. The filing used 526,540,758 shares outstanding for its selling-stockholder table, meaning the new resale block is about 0.64% of that base.
| Ondas trading and supply check | Figure | Read-through |
|---|---|---|
| Tuesday price | $8.295 | Up 3.4% on the day |
| Tuesday volume by 10:49 a.m. EDT | 28.2 mln shares | The resale block equals about 12% of this turnover |
| June 26 resale registration | 3.38 mln shares | About 0.64% of SEC filing share count |
| Value of resale block at Tuesday price | About $28.0 mln | Smaller than June order headlines |
| Q2-to-date orders cited June 22 | More than $150 mln | More than five times the resale block’s Tuesday value |
That matters because Ondas is being valued on a fast order ramp while still paying for acquisitions with stock. The June 26 prospectus says Omnisys sellers face a 15% daily volume cap, based on 10-day average volume, while certain World View sellers face a 5% daily cap for six months. Those caps do not remove selling risk, but they put numbers around it.
The business case is still order-led. Ondas said on June 22 it had won more than $40 million of June orders for autonomous defense systems, taking second-quarter-to-date order activity above $150 million. Chief Executive Eric Brock said “Counter-UAS has become an urgent priority” for governments. Ondas Inc.
Ondas had reported first-quarter revenue of $50.1 million, up more than tenfold from a year earlier, and raised its 2026 revenue target to at least $390 million. Pro forma backlog was $457 million, up from $68.3 million at the end of 2025.
Using the June 26 filing share count and Tuesday’s price, Ondas’ implied equity value is about $4.37 billion. That is roughly 11.2 times the company’s 2026 revenue target and 9.6 times Q1 pro forma backlog.
| Ondas operating yardstick | Figure | Implied stock yardstick |
|---|---|---|
| Implied equity value | About $4.37 bln | Based on $8.295 and SEC share count |
| 2026 revenue target | At least $390 mln | About 11.2x target revenue |
| Q1 pro forma backlog | $457 mln | About 9.6x backlog |
| Q1 cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments | $1.48 bln | Still a large acquisition buffer |
