Ondas Holdings stock climbed nearly 30% last week, closing Friday at $11.02. The drone and private wireless company attracted investor attention after revealing plans for a name change and headquarters relocation.

Ondas Holdings Inc., ONDS

The company will rename itself Ondas Inc. in the first quarter of 2026. Chairman and CEO Eric Brock said the change reflects the company’s evolution into an integrated defense and security technology platform.

Ondas is moving its headquarters to West Palm Beach, Florida. The relocation positions the company in a growing hub for technology and defense businesses. Brock described the Florida city as a strategic location that supports capital formation and long-term value creation.

The company will maintain operations across multiple regions. Engineering, manufacturing, and field operations will continue in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Management said the changes won’t disrupt customer programs or delivery schedules.

New Orders and Market Interest

Ondas announced roughly $10 million in new purchase orders on December 31. The orders span its autonomous systems portfolio, including counter-drone technology. Demand for counter-UAS systems has increased as military procurement expands.

The stock has traded between $0.57 and $11.70 over the past 52 weeks. Friday’s close near the 52-week high shows how quickly sentiment shifted. The intraday low of $9.92 serves as a near-term support level.

New COO, general counsel, and corporate secretary Robert Patrick Huston received 100,000 restricted stock units and 100,000 stock options. The RSUs vest in quarterly installments starting February 4. Director Ron Stern filed to sell up to 100,000 shares through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney.

Upcoming Financial Events

The company will issue approximately 2.39 million shares on January 5. The issuance relates to a securities exchange agreement with note and warrant holders. Ondas expects to record a one-time non-cash charge of about $56.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

A subsidiary’s convertible notes mature on January 15. Ondas Networks amended the maturity date through a letter agreement with noteholders. The filing described the change as a maturity extension.

The company had about 368.5 million shares outstanding according to a recent Form 144 filing. Trading volume spiked on Friday as the stock gained ground. The rally leaves limited cushion for unexpected developments.

Macro data releases this week could affect small-cap stocks. ISM’s manufacturing PMI report drops January 5, followed by the services PMI on January 7. The December employment report comes out January 9, potentially moving rate expectations and risk appetite.
