Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) shares are trading higher Friday after the company announced a note holder will purchase $4.1 million in 3% senior convertible notes due in 2026.

The Details: CEO Eric Brock said that the proceeds from the senior convertible notes will be used to support the company's growth plan.

"This investment is part of the multi-stage capital plan we outlined at our OAS-focused investor day in September. Since the third quarter, we have seen strengthening demand for both our Optimus and Iron Drone Raider autonomous drone platforms. We intend to increase inventory production to meet that demand in 2025. We look forward to updating investors on our 2025 outlook in the first quarter of next year," said Brock.

Ondas may complete additional closings for a total of up to $30.4 million in funding. The goal of the second investment would be to support general corporate purposes, with a primary focus on driving the growth of Ondas Autonomous Systems and its drone business.
