Voyager Technologies stock jumps again on ISS drug-discovery deal, Wedbush call — what to watch next

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 09:24 EST — Market closed

  • Shares jumped 7.4% on Friday, sealing a two-day winning streak
  • Voyager’s ISS payload deal and a new Wedbush initiation kept interest alive in the recent listing
  • Next up for investors: February conference appearances, where updates on pipeline and execution are expected

Shares of Voyager Technologies Inc closed Friday up 7.4% at $37.09, after fluctuating between $34.62 and $38.84. Trading volume hovered near 3.0 million shares.

The stock continues to act like a fresh IPO: sharp swings, little tolerance, and a market hungry for confirmation. At the moment, traders are focusing on two immediate catalysts — a fresh space-medicine deal linked to the International Space Station and a bullish sell-side upgrade.

Voyager announced this week it secured a contract with Space LiinTech to send a new payload to the ISS focused on microgravity-enabled drug discovery. This research leverages near-weightless conditions in orbit to alter material formation. “Microgravity changes crystallization, growth dynamics and material properties at a fundamental level,” said Matt Magaña, president of Space, Defense & National Security at Voyager, in the statement.

Voyager will handle mission integration and payload configuration for Space LiinTech’s protein crystallization experiments—a key technique in drug research—under the new contract, the company stated. The mission will feature an AI-powered automation and monitoring system. Byungho Kim of Space LiinTech described the deal as “the start of a strong, long-term partnership,” according to the release.

Wedbush kicked off coverage on Friday, assigning an Outperform rating alongside a $46 price target — predicting where the stock might land within a year. (Investing)

In a separate regulatory filing, Liberty Street Advisors reported holding 681,748 Voyager shares worth roughly $17.8 million as of Dec. 31. This indicates the stock is beginning to appear in some focused portfolios. (SEC)

The recent rally gained momentum as defense and space stocks rallied on Friday. Booz Allen Hamilton surged following its earnings report and raised guidance, while Voyager pushed higher after revealing its ISS payload plans, according to IBD. (Investors)

Voyager priced its U.S. IPO at $31 per share in June 2025, pulling in roughly $382.8 million, according to Reuters. (Reuters)

But there’s a catch to the run-up. Voyager hasn’t revealed the financial details of its Space LiinTech deal, leaving investors to wait and see if the ISS payload work leads to follow-up missions and steady revenue instead of just one-off news grabs.

Looking ahead to this week, all eyes turn to Voyager’s public remarks. The company is set to appear at multiple February conferences, kicking off with the TD Cowen Aerospace & Defense Conference on Feb. 13. Barclays and Citi events follow, wrapping up with the NYSE Space Summit on Feb. 23. (Voyager Technologies)

  • PAL GROUP Holdings Boosts Year-End Dividend to ¥40, Enhancing Shareholder Value
    January 25, 2026, 9:48 AM EST. PAL GROUP Holdings (TSE:2726) announced a 33% increase in its year-end dividend to ¥40 per share, effective May 27, 2026, reflecting stronger sales and profits for the nine months ended November 2025. The move aims to reinforce the company's commitment to stable, profit-linked shareholder returns amid ongoing governance changes, including adjustments to directors and auditors post board meeting. While the dividend hike partially offsets recent share price weakness, key challenges remain, such as maintaining margins and managing leadership transition. Market analysts highlight a nuanced risk-reward balance, with fair value estimates ranging near ¥2,500, suggesting the stock may still be undervalued by 32% despite governance concerns. Investors are advised to monitor capital allocation and board independence as the company navigates these changes.
