BlackRock stake puts fresh attention on Ondas stock

BlackRock’s disclosure of a 7.2% passive stake in Ondas (ONDS), alongside recent defense contracts and acquisitions, has put fresh attention on the stock and management’s updated revenue outlook for fiscal 2026.

See our latest analysis for Ondas.

Despite BlackRock’s new position and the recent defense contracts and acquisitions, Ondas’ share price has come under pressure, with the 90 day share price return down 27.42% and the year to date share price return down 32.03%, while the 1 year total shareholder return of 240.45% and 3 year total shareholder return above 4x still reflect a very strong longer term move.

If Ondas’ recent swings have you thinking about where else growth and defense technology could show up next, it is worth scanning the 55 AI infrastructure stocks for more ideas.

Ondas now trades at a steep discount to both analyst targets and some intrinsic value estimates after a sharp pullback. Is the market sensibly fading the story, or mispricing a business with growing defense exposure and new contracts?

Most Popular Narrative: 61.6% Undervalued

Ondas closed at $7.49, while the most followed narrative on the stock pegs fair value at $19.50. That gap is anchored in a very specific defense thesis.

We could all agree that the defense landscape of 2026 has been defined by a humbling reality: expensive, high-tech systems are being routinely embarrassed by cheap, off-the-shelf drone swarms since the outbreak of Russo-Ukrainian war. For years, the U.S. Departement of War has been caught in a surveillance gap. Traditional satellites sit too high, tethered to expensive orbits with predictable "blind spots." Standard tactical drones fly too low and run out of battery far too quickly. This middle ground is where security fails, and it is exactly where Ondas Holdings is building its fortress.

Read the complete narrative.

According to AgentWilson, the fair value hinges on how a full "layered ISR" stack could turn one-off orders into a repeatable defense grid. The assumptions pull together rapid revenue growth, a step change in margins and a future earnings multiple that leans on that national security role. Curious what has to happen operationally for that $19.50 fair value to line up with today’s $7.49 share price.

Result: Fair Value of $19.50 (UNDERVALUED)

However, this Ondas thesis still faces real risk if large defense customers slow orders or if execution stumbles in integrating the World View partnership.
