Описание: DroneShield Limited (ASX:DRO) provides cutting edge AI-powered hardware and software solutions designed to detect, track, and defeat unmanned threats from drones and autonomous systems used by terrorists, criminals, and other ‘unfriendlies’. DroneShield’s customers include military, intelligence community, government, law enforcement, critical infrastructure, and airports. This year alone DroneShield’s stock has soared almost 400% and hit record highs. DroneShield’s CEO and Managing Director Oleg Vornik joins Lel Smits on The Stock Network.

1. Implications of Australian Defence Force contracts award
DroneShield has just shared Hon Pat Conroy MP, Minister for Defence Industry, has awarded an initial LAND156 contract award $ to supply handheld counter-drone equipment to the Australian Defence Force: What funds will DroneShield receive and what’s the significance of this award?

2. Recent commitment to increased R&D + manufacturing investment
DroneShield recently unveiled plans to invest $13 million in a significant R&D, research and development and manufacturing capacity expansion. What kind of return on investment are you expecting and how soon will it be reflected on your balance sheet?

3. Ramifications of recent large European military order
Just last month, DroneShield won a record $61.6 million European military contract, your biggest ever. How does this order also show military customers are moving from testing to actually rolling it out to ‘in the field’ situations, and do you expect for this to continue?

4. Broader ramifications of increased global tensions
Current conflicts around the world clearly indicate that drones are cheaply and effectively disrupting the way modern warfare is conducted. How can AI add to drones’ military-specific effectiveness, and what’s the financial upside to DroneShield from these trends?

5. After a 400% share price surge, what’s left in the tank
DroneShield’s stock has already soared nearly 400% this year and hit record highs — with that kind of run, many investors are wondering: how much more upside is left? What’s the next catalyst that could push the share price even higher from here?
