Ondas (ONDS) stock rises after $1 billion above-market financing — here’s what traders are parsing

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 12:23 EST — Regular session

  • ONDS up about 3% in midday trade after company priced a $1 billion stock-and-warrant sale
  • Deal includes 19 million shares and pre-funded warrants tied to 60.79 million “common stock equivalents”
  • Friday SEC filing also disclosed unaudited financial snapshot for Sentry CS, a recent acquisition

Ondas Holdings Inc. shares rose about 3% on Friday, trading at $14.44, after the company said it priced a $1 billion registered direct offering of stock and warrants.

The financing is a big swing for a company that has traded with sharp moves and thin conviction at times. It brings in fresh capital quickly, but it also puts the share count — and the overhang from warrants — front and center again.

Investors tend to like cash coming in above the last close. They also worry about what comes with it: dilution, a heavy block of new paper, and a deal structure that can keep a lid on the stock if holders sell into strength.

Ondas said the offering was priced at $16.45 per share, a roughly 17.5% premium to the Jan. 8 close, and will include 19 million shares plus pre-funded warrants to buy up to about 41.79 million shares. The securities are being sold with warrants to buy a total of about 121.58 million shares at $28 each, exercisable immediately and expiring seven years from issuance, the company said. 1

In a separate catalyst, a U.S. SEC filing on Friday provided summary, unaudited financial information for Sentry CS Ltd, the Israeli counter-drone company Ondas bought in November. The filing showed Sentry reported about $11.35 million in sales and a $13.51 million net loss for the year ended Dec. 31, 2024, and about $10.98 million in sales with a $4.54 million net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

That kind of disclosure can matter for a roll-up story. It gives investors a first, rough look at a business Ondas is betting on, even as the company warns the figures are preliminary and unaudited.

Next week brings two investor-facing dates that could move the stock again. Ondas is scheduled to appear at the Needham Growth Conference on Jan. 14 in a fireside chat with Needham’s Austin Bohlig, the company said. 2

Ondas has also set an investor day for Jan. 16, when it plans to lay out strategy and a financial outlook, according to the company. 3

But the near-term risk is straightforward: the financing is large, it still needs to close, and the warrants are a long-dated overhang that may not turn into cash unless the stock can clear the $28 strike. Traders will be watching for signs the deal tightens the story — or just adds supply.

The next catalysts are the expected closing of the financing on or about Jan. 12 and management’s Jan. 16 investor day.
