WALTHAM, MA and PETAH TIKVA, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / January 23, 2023 / Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of private wireless, drone and automated data solutions through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Ondas Networks Inc. ("Ondas Networks") and American Robotics, Inc. ("American Robotics" or "AR"), announced today it has completed the previously announced acquisition of AIROBOTICS Ltd. (TASE: AIRO) ("Airobotics"), a leading, Israeli-based developer of autonomous unmanned aircraft systems ("UAS") and automated data analysis and visualization platforms, effective January 23, 2023.

The completed transaction further strengthens Ondas' position in the drone market with industry leading capabilities to design, develop, and market commercial drone solutions via the Scout System™ and Optimus System™ (the "Autonomous Drone Platforms"). Together, the combined company is uniquely positioned to provide a broad set of commercial drone solutions ranging from smart cities, construction management and public safety, to industrial markets such as oil & gas, mining and rail. We believe the Airobotics Optimus System is the first autonomous drone platform to launch commercial fleet deployments in urban environments, and the maturity and real-world reliability and functionality of the Optimus System creates the opportunity for significant commercial customer adoption and revenue growth beginning in 2023.

"Airobotics Optimus System is a best-in-class autonomous drone platform with unmatched flexibility for high valued use cases as well as proven reliability and customer acceptance.," said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. "The combination of Airobotics with American Robotics positions our drone segment to tackle a broader set of customer verticals, leveraging Airobotics' technology, expertise and one-of-a-kind drone platform to enhance our current product offering and strengthen our customer solutions. As we begin to see further customer adoption at scale for our Autonomous Drone Platforms, we believe we are in a strong position to capitalize on these revenue growth opportunities and outline a path to profitability for our drone segment."

"This acquisition is a validation of the hard work and dedication of the Airobotics team," said Meir Kliner, CEO & Co-Founder of Airobotics. "I am proud to see our technology being adopted by customers for commercial fleet deployments which we believe will drive significant revenue growth in the coming years. We are excited to join with Ondas and American Robotics, as we collectively define the end-to-end autonomous solutions required to scale the drone industry for the benefit of our customers and investors."

Transaction Details

Pursuant to the definitive acquisition agreement, each issued and outstanding share of Airobotics was converted into, and exchanged for, 0.16806 shares of Ondas common stock. Ondas issued approximately 2.8 million shares as consideration to the Airobotics shareholders (excluding approximately 1.7 million shares underlying options and warrants to be outstanding following the acquisition).

As a result of the acquisition, the Company will be dual listed on Nasdaq and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE"). The first trading day of the Company's shares on TASE is expected to be January 26, 2023.
