Things are moving fast at Volatus Aerospace, the Canadian drone specialist for civil and military applications: Following two orders for drones and drone training from a NATO country, the Company has now secured growth financing. The Company announced overnight that it intends to raise up to CAD 10 million through a non-brokered “LIFE Offering.” This means that the new shares are not subject to any lock-up period. The financing will support expansion in the area of tactical ISR and logistics services and prepare for growth investments. The capital will thus flow into precisely those areas in which Volatus Aerospace has recently demonstrated its ability to win orders: military reconnaissance and logistics.

    Growth financing meets growth markets

    According to experts at Mordor Intelligence, the market for military logistics will grow from USD 29.27 billion to USD 37.12 billion between 2024 and 2029 – an annual increase of 4.9%. This is further enhanced by the potential applications in the field of military reconnaissance and communications. According to analysts, these markets are also worth billions and are growing significantly. Fortune Business Insights estimates the market volume in the military communications sector at USD 60.4 billion by 2032 and expects annual growth of 7.2% from 2024 onwards. Business Research Insights sees the market for military reconnaissance at USD 255.88 billion with an annual growth rate of 3.9% through 2033. Even though these market forecasts can only provide an initial indication of how great the potential is in the business segment occupied by Volatus Aerospace, the financing round announced now appears logical in order to quickly secure further market share.

    Volatus Aerospace with military and civilian potential

    With fresh capital, the drone specialists can continue their growth course even faster and convert the interest of potential customers into orders even more easily. The market is also likely to view the fact that financing can be announced at the current valuation level as positive. Volatus Aerospace is active in two exciting growth areas. In addition to the increased demand for military solutions in the fields of logistics and reconnaissance, the Company also offers solutions for monitoring infrastructure such as bridges, pipelines, dams, and roads. Using modern technology, construction defects can be detected in good time and ultimately rectified – there is a backlog of infrastructure repairs worldwide. A report by the G20 estimates that investments of USD 94 trillion in infrastructure will be necessary every year worldwide until 2040.

    Capital measure on fair terms

    As part of the capital measure announced today, Volatus intends to issue up to 19.23 million units at CAD 0.52 each, raising up to CAD 10 million. Each unit consists of one share and half a warrant. Two half warrants therefore entitle the holder to purchase one additional share at a price of CAD 0.76 within 36 months. The capital measure is thus being carried out at a fair price. Just yesterday, analysts at Ventum Capital Markets raised their price target for Volatus Aerospace to CAD 0.50.

    The stock market success stories Almonty Industries, TKMS, and Steyr Motors are opening a new chapter - and it is still not too late to get in!

    The trade conflict between the US and China is intensifying and reaching a new strategic dimension. Beijing is deliberately restricting exports of critical raw materials and rare earths that are indispensable for high-tech industries, defense, and the energy transition. Western industries are coming under pressure, security of supply is faltering, and prices are rising. Meanwhile, the beneficiaries of this situation, such as producers of critical raw materials, are experiencing a boom. What happens next, and what does the stock market newcomer TKMS have to do with it?

    Raw materials alert for defense and technology! Almonty, MP Materials, and Rheinmetall!

    Europe faces a growing raw materials challenge. Whether it is rare earths, tungsten, or other critical metals, these resources are essential not only for defense, but for countless industries, including AI. The FAZ recently spoke to Almonty CEO Lewis Black about this, dedicating almost an entire page to the issue. Conclusion: Europe must act. The US has long since taken decisive action, securing access for its industry by investing in raw materials companies such as MP Materials and Lithium Americas. Europe's hesitation could pose a risk for Rheinmetall, even if investors are currently overlooking it - especially as the Company is also expanding in the US. Hopefully, Defense Minister Pistorius will have this issue on his radar during his visit to Canada.
