Draganfly Inc

Draganfly announced the closing of its previously announced registered direct offering, raising approximately $10M in gross proceeds. Under the terms of the offering, the drone solutions developer issued 1.87M common shares at $5.35 per share. Draganfly plans to deploy the net funds to accelerate the development of advanced strategic capabilities and support general working capital requirements as global demand matures across U.S. and international markets. The offering was executed under an effective SEC Form F-10 shelf registration statement effective February 25, 2026, and a Canadian base shelf prospectus dated October 24, 2025.

Draganfly announced on Monday that it is raising $10M through a strategic investment from Unusual Machines and a U.S. investment fund, with each investing $5M. The investment is structured as a registered direct offering of 1.87M shares at $5.35 per share. Net proceeds will be used to develop advanced drone technologies and fund working capital as demand grows in U.S. and international markets. The investment comes as the company expands its commercial and defense business, including recent procurement activity with the Canadian Armed Forces, and the deal is expected to close around September 29, subject to customary regulatory approvals. Following the announcement, Draganfly stock traded 7% higher at about $5.75.

Draganfly has been awarded a five-year contract by the Canadian government to supply uncrewed aircraft systems and training to the Canadian armed forces. The company will provide 100 low-cost tactical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance uncrewed aircraft systems, along with associated ground control stations, payloads, data links, support equipment, documentation, spare parts, and training. Under the terms of the contract, the Canadian government holds an option to order another 4,900 UAS systems for a contractual value of CAD24.25M, or $17.5M, which would bring the total number of UAS systems from Draganfly to 5,000. Shares are about 6% higher ahead of Friday's open, positioning Draganfly to trade in the green for the first time this week.

Draganfly is positioning itself to benefit from a shift toward secure, domestically produced drones as U.S. government agencies replace Chinese-made systems. The company's portfolio of National Defense Authorization Act-compliant platforms meets federal procurement rules that ban drones from certain Chinese manufacturers due to cybersecurity concerns. Draganfly operates manufacturing and engineering facilities in Canada, which strengthens supply-chain resilience and shortens delivery times for U.S. customers. The company is expanding defense ties, including work with U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command and an AI partnership with Palladyne AI. Draganfly's shares have risen 16.7% over the past three months, and its forward price-to-sales ratio of 0.88 is a discount to the industry average of 2.62.

The International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators has launched a national Campus Drone Implementation & Readiness Program for U.S. colleges and universities, selecting Draganfly as its strategic partner to provide drone systems, services, and training. The initiative offers a turnkey framework covering policy, training, and equipment to help campus public safety departments deploy compliant, trusted drone programs aligned with emerging federal requirements. IACLEA Executive Director Paul Cell stated that Draganfly was chosen after a rigorous competitive evaluation and that this is the first association-endorsed program of its kind for responsible campus drone adoption. The program is built around three pillars: FAA-aligned policies and governance, tiered training with IACLEA-backed credentialing, and guidance on right-sized fleets using Draganfly platforms with ongoing support. Full details will be available on a dedicated landing page.

Draganfly Inc. has completed the acquisition of Skip Dynamix Corporation for an aggregate purchase price of up to $7.525 million. Under the terms, $2.525 million was paid at closing and $2.5 million in Draganfly shares valued at $6.46 per share, with the remaining $2.5 million tied to earn-out consideration. The deal expands Draganfly's defense platform portfolio, positioning it to pursue opportunities around the US Department of War and NATO-aligned modernization initiatives. The company plans to integrate Skip Dynamix technologies into its broader defense ecosystem, which includes AI-enabled autonomy, sensor integration, and next-generation mission systems, expecting significant revenue synergies and incremental revenue growth.
