r/ONDS

Hey guys. I really like the stock and company and what they do. There is no doubt in my mind there will be a continuous growing need for drones and their technology especially militarily. I have been researching the company and the stock for the last day and see one major issue and that is stock dilution.

In 2021 there were roughly 41 million shares. Today? Around 530 million. That is such a milk of investors money and funds it is disturbing for a potential investor to see.

I really am interested in picking up the stock or something similar but with this issue I don't know. If they keep diluting shareholders then I wouldn't want to be holding. Thoughts?

Took a 1,348-share position this week. No financial advice, just laying out the thesis behind my entry and how I view the risk/reward setup from here.

Long-term horizon: My target remains in the $15 range as the consolidated platform scales and institutional validation catches up. However, in small-cap defense and autonomous tech, volatility is a feature, not a bug. My plan is dynamic: trim into irrational spikes and accumulate on sharp pullbacks, while keeping the core thesis intact.

Why I entered now?

1. Operational consolidation and operational leverage The market has heavily discounted the operational drag of integrating recent acquisitions. Unifying autonomous systems, counter-UAS, and sensor assets under one unified architecture is inherently messy in the short term, but it creates genuine cross-selling power and higher-margin software/defense contracts once the pipeline delivers. Recent updates confirm the integration is moving in the right direction.
2. Geopolitical overhang vs. market mispricing A significant part of the recent suppression relates to exposure to Israeli defense tech and the associated headline risk, including European procurement hesitation and boycott rhetoric from select governments. The market is pricing this as permanent structural damage rather than a temporary geopolitical discount. ( ELECTIONS IN ISRAEL END OF THE MONTH)
3. Near-term catalyst: Political normalization With elections approaching in Israel, there is clear potential for political realignment. Even a partial normalization or shift toward a broader coalition reduces international pushback from European partners, lowering the perceived sovereign risk premium. Markets trade on shifting sentiment before reality is finalized; once sentiment pivots from maximum pessimism to stabilization, this discount will compress fast.

The downside is known: integration execution and general small-cap volatility. The upside: deeply discounted proprietary tech at multi-year lows right ahead of major political and operational inflection points.

Holding 1,348 shares and letting the macro thesis play out. What are your price targets into Q4?
