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.

    Top tips for 2026 – Critical metals and armaments! DroneShield, Pasinex, RENK, and Heidelberger Druck in focus

    In 2025, there was a pronounced rally in critical metals starting in the summer. This was largely triggered by China, which imposed export restrictions on rare metals and strategic raw materials in response to arbitrary tariff demands from the White House. The metal markets reacted with strong upward movements, and the procurement centers of Western industry reacted even more severely. In view of the needs of the near future, a large number of properties would have to be brought into production in the areas of copper, graphite, lithium, uranium, zinc, and rare earths. However, it takes around 10 years to set up a mine, including all permits and preliminary investigations. Because this is far too long for the current needs, the market is looking at projects that are about to start production or are already producing. We offer a few ideas from the supply chain and potential customers.

    Spectacular gains in 2025: Almonty up 8x, Rheinmetall up 2x - is TKMS next? Let profits run?

    Commodity stocks and defense shares were among investors' favorites in 2025. Rheinmetall shares have more than doubled this year and have even increased tenfold since the outbreak of the war between Russia and Ukraine. An especially impressive rally was delivered by Almonty Industries, whose share price rose eightfold. The signs continue to point to growth, as the Company has key unique selling points and significant geopolitical relevance in the supply of strategic metals that are urgently needed in the West and are essential for the defense industry and high-tech sector. The necessary security of supply is also attracting governments as buyers. The development of stock market newcomer TKMS is also exciting. The order books of the manufacturer of submarines and naval vessels are filling up. The motto for these stocks in 2026 is: stay on board.

    In December, many market participants start thinking about the next investment period – in this case, the year 2026. The 2025 investment year was one of the best periods of the past 20 years for both the DAX and the NASDAQ, with gains of 18.7% and 20.8%, respectively. Even the Trump tariff crash in April was offset entirely within just two weeks. The drivers of the upswing remain the US administration's policy, which is perceived as "supportive," as well as ongoing geopolitical conflicts and still tolerable interest rates between 2.7% (Bund) and 4.0% (USD Treasury) in the ten-year range. For the coming year, some experts expect another wave of inflation, high commodity prices, and rising energy costs. These are all factors that could once again stifle the economic upturn and bring additional volatility to the markets. And let's not forget: AI and defense seem to be at their peak — so who will lead the next revaluation of the stock markets?
