    QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

    What is the purpose of our 2026 Annual Meeting?

    Our 2026 Annual Meeting will be held to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

    1.      Director Election Proposal — a proposal to elect four directors, each for a term expiring at the next Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

    2.      Auditor Ratification Proposal — a proposal to ratify the selection of BDO USA, P.C. as the Company’s independent certified public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;

    3.      Say on Pay Proposal — a proposal to obtain advisory approval of the Company’s executive compensation;

    4.      Charter Amendment Proposal — a proposal to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 800,000,000 to 1,200,000,000;

    5.      Incentive Plan Proposal — a proposal to approve an amendment to the 2021 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2021 Plan”), to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan; and

    6.      To transact any other business that is properly presented at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.

    How can I attend the Annual Meeting?

    You are entitled to attend the Annual Meeting only if you were an Ondas stockholder as of the Record Date or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. You should be prepared to present photo identification for admittance. If your shares are held by a brokerage firm, bank, or a trustee, you should provide proof of beneficial ownership as of the Record Date, such as a bank or brokerage account statement or other similar evidence of ownership. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please cast your vote as soon as possible.

    What are the voting rights of Ondas stockholders?

    Each stockholder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on each of the four director nominees and one vote per share on each other matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting for each share of Common Stock owned by that stockholder on the Record Date.

    What constitutes a quorum?

    The holders of a majority of the shares of stock, issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, shall be present in person or represented by proxy in order to constitute a quorum for the Annual Meeting. If you submit a properly executed proxy or voting instruction card or properly cast your vote via the Internet or telephone, your shares will be considered part of the quorum, even if you abstain from voting or withhold authority to vote as to a particular proposal. Under Nevada law, we also will consider as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists any shares represented by “broker non-votes.”

    What are “broker non-votes?”

    “Broker non-votes” occur when shares held by a brokerage firm are not voted with respect to a proposal because the firm has not received voting instructions from the stockholder and the firm does not have the authority to vote the shares in its discretion. Under applicable exchange rules, the Director Election Proposal, Say on Pay Proposal, and Incentive Plan Proposal are non-routine proposals, and as such a broker does not have the discretion to vote on such proposals if such broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares represented. The Auditor Ratification Proposal and Charter Amendment Proposal are routine proposals, and as such a broker does have discretion to vote on the Auditor Ratification Proposal and Charter Amendment Proposal.

    Table of Contents

    Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy?

    If your shares are held by a brokerage firm and you do not provide the firm specific voting instructions, such firm will not have the authority to vote your shares for the Director Election Proposal, Say on Pay Proposal, and Incentive Plan Proposal and your shares will not be voted, and will be considered “broker non-votes,” with respect to these proposals to be presented at the Annual Meeting. Therefore, we urge you to provide voting instructions so that your shares will be voted. If you hold your shares directly in your own name, your shares will not be voted unless you provide a proxy or fill out a written ballot in person at the Annual Meeting.

    How do I vote?

    Ondas stockholders of record on April 9, 2026 may submit their proxies as follows:

    •        Through the Internet, by visiting the website established for that purpose at https://AALvote.com/ONDS by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 27, 2026 and following the instructions;

    •        By telephone, by calling the toll-free number +1 (866) 804-9616 in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico on a touch-tone phone by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 27, 2026 and following the recorded instructions; or

    •        By mail, by marking, signing, and dating the enclosed proxy card and returning it in the postage-paid envelope provided or returning it pursuant to the instructions provided in the proxy card.

    If you are a beneficial owner, please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank, broker or other holder of record to see which options are available to you.

    To vote in person:

    •        If you are a registered holder, attend our Annual Meeting, bring valid photo identification, and deliver your completed proxy card or ballot in person; or

    •        If you hold your shares in “street name,” attend our Annual Meeting, bring valid photo identification, and obtain a legal proxy from your bank or broker to vote the shares that are held for your benefit, attach it to your completed proxy card and deliver it in person.

    Can I change my vote after I have voted?

    You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. You may vote again on a later date via the Internet, by telephone, by signing and mailing a new proxy card with a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person (only your latest proxy submitted prior to the Annual Meeting will be counted). However, your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not automatically revoke your proxy unless you vote again at the Annual Meeting or specifically request in writing that your prior proxy be revoked.

    What vote is required to approve each proposal at the Annual Meeting?

    Proposal 1 — Director Election Proposal.

    The vote required to elect our four directors, each for a term expiring at the next Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified, is a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. A withhold vote and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for the Director Election Proposal.

    Proposal 2 — Auditor Ratification Proposal.

    The vote required to approve the Auditor Ratification Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of the vote for the Auditor Ratification Proposal.

    Proposal 3 — Say on Pay Proposal.

    The vote required to approve the Say on Pay Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the Say on Pay Proposal.

    Table of Contents

    Proposal 4 — Charter Amendment Proposal.

    Proposal 5 — Incentive Plan Proposal.

    The vote required to approve the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal.

    How does the Board recommend I vote on the proposals?

    The Board recommends that you vote:

    •        FOR Proposal 1: the Director Election Proposal;

    •        FOR Proposal 2: the Auditor Ratification Proposal;

    •        FOR Proposal 3: the Say on Pay Proposal;

    •        FOR Proposal 4: the Charter Amendment Proposal; and

    •        FOR Proposal 5: the Incentive Plan Proposal.

    How will the persons named as proxies vote?

    If you complete and submit a proxy, the persons named as proxies will follow your voting instructions. If you submit a proxy but do not provide instructions or if your instructions are unclear, the persons named as proxies will vote your shares in accordance with the recommendations of the Board, as set forth above.

    With respect to any other proposal that properly comes before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote as recommended by our Board or, if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion.

    Who will pay for the cost of soliciting proxies?

    We will pay for the cost of soliciting proxies. Our directors, officers, and other employees, without additional compensation, may also solicit proxies personally or in writing, by telephone, e-mail, or otherwise. Ondas has engaged Alliance Advisors, LLC to assist it in the distribution and solicitation of proxies at a fee of $16,000, plus expenses. As is customary, we will reimburse brokerage firms, fiduciaries, voting trustees, and other nominees for forwarding our proxy materials to each beneficial owner of Common Stock held of record by them.

    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

    Board of Directors

    The business and affairs of the Company are managed by or under the direction of the Board. The Board is currently composed of four members. The Board has not appointed a lead independent director; instead, the presiding director for each executive session is rotated among the Chairs of the committees of our Board.

    The Board held seven (7) meetings and took 26 actions by unanimous written consent during the year ended December 31, 2025. In 2025, each person serving as a director attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of our Board and any Board committee on which he or she served.

    Our directors are expected to attend our Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Any director who is unable to attend our Annual Meeting is expected to notify the Chairman of the Board in advance of the Annual Meeting. All of our directors then serving attended the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

    Committees of the Board

    Audit Committee

    The audit committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) reviews our internal accounting procedures and consults with and reviews the services provided by our independent registered public accountants. Our Audit Committee consists of three directors, Messrs. Cohen and Seidl and Ms. Sood, and our Board has determined that each of them is independent within the meaning of the listing requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) and the independence requirements contemplated by Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Mr. Cohen is the chairman of the Audit Committee, and our Board has determined that Mr. Cohen is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations implementing Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”). Our Board has determined that the composition of our Audit Committee meets the criteria for independence under, and the functioning of our Audit Committee complies with, the applicable requirements of the SOX, Nasdaq listing requirements and SEC rules and regulations. We intend to continue to evaluate the requirements applicable to us and to comply with the future requirements to the extent that they become applicable to our Audit Committee. The principal duties and responsibilities of our Audit Committee include:

    Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Committee Charters

    We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”), which is applicable to all of our employees, executive officers and directors. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Code of Conduct and our Board must approve any waivers of the Code of Conduct for employees, executive officers and directors. All of our directors, executive officers and employees are required to certify in writing their understanding of and intent to comply with the Code of Conduct.

    Our Board adopted charters for the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and N&CG Committee of the Board describing the authority and responsibilities delegated to each committee.

    We post on our website www.ondas.com the charters of each of our Board committees and our Code of Conduct, and all disclosures that are required by law concerning any amendments or waivers thereto applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions; and any other corporate governance materials contemplated by the Nasdaq listing requirements and SEC regulations. These documents are also available in print, without charge, to any stockholder requesting a copy in writing from our Secretary at our executive offices set forth in this proxy statement.

    Insider Trading Policy

    We have adopted an Insider Trading Policy that governs the purchase, sale, and/or other disposition of our securities and is applicable to our directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons. We believe our Insider Trading Policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations, and listing standards applicable to the Company. The policy also prohibits directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons from (i) hedging their ownership of the Company’s stock, including trading in publicly-traded options or other derivative instruments related to the Company’s securities and (ii) selling “short” our securities to the extent required by federal securities laws. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

    Board Leadership

    The Board has no policy regarding the need to separate or combine the offices of Chairman of the Board (“Chairman”) and Chief Executive Officer and instead the Board remains free to make this determination from time to time in a manner that seems most appropriate for the Company. The positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are currently held by Eric Brock. The Board believes the Chief Executive Officer is in the best position to direct the independent directors’ attention on the issues of greatest importance to the Company and its stockholders. As a result, the Company does not have a lead independent director; instead, the presiding director for each executive session is rotated among the Chairs of the committees of our Board. Our overall corporate governance policies and practices combined with the strength of our independent directors and our internal controls minimize any potential conflicts that may result from combining the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

    Board Oversight of Enterprise Risk

    The Board is actively involved in the oversight and management of risks that could affect the Company. This oversight and management is conducted primarily through the committees of the Board identified above but the full Board has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks. The Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the risk management function, specifically with respect to management’s assessment of risk exposures (including risks related to liquidity, credit, operations and regulatory compliance, among others), and the processes in place to monitor and control such exposures. The other committees of the Board consider the risks within their areas of responsibility. The Board satisfies its oversight responsibility through full reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions, as well as through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within the Company.

    Director Independence

    A majority of our Board is independent under the rules of Nasdaq. Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of our directors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. As a result of this review, our Board has determined that Messrs. Cohen and Seidl, and Ms. Sood are “independent directors” as defined under the rules of Nasdaq.

    Communications with the Company and the Board

    Stockholders may communicate with the Company through its Investor Relations Department by writing to Investor Relations, Ondas Inc., 222 Lakeview Avenue Suite 800, West Palm Beach, FL 33401.

Stockholders interested in submitting a proposal for inclusion in

    Stockholder Director Nominations

    The N&CG Committee has established a policy pursuant to which it considers director candidates recommended by our stockholders. All director candidates recommended by our stockholders are considered for selection to the Board on the same basis as if such candidates were recommended by one or more of our directors or other persons.

    To recommend a director candidate for consideration by our N&CG Committee, a stockholder must submit the recommendation in writing to our Secretary not later than 120 calendar days prior to the anniversary date of our proxy statement distributed to our stockholders in connection with our previous year’s annual meeting of stockholders, and the recommendation shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of the person, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of the person, (iii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Company which are beneficially owned by the person and (iv) any other information relating to the person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of directors pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act; and (b) as to the stockholder giving the notice, (i) the name and record address of such stockholder and (ii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Company which are beneficially owned by such stockholder. Additionally, to comply with the SEC’s universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act. The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Company.

    PROPOSAL 2: AUDITOR RATIFICATION PROPOSAL

    We are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) as our independent certified public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2026. If the stockholders do not ratify the appointment of BDO, the selection of our independent certified public accountants may be reconsidered by our Audit Committee.

    Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

    Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman, P.A. (“RRBB”) served as our independent registered public accounting firm since June 28, 2018. Following an extensive evaluation process, on January 17, 2026, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved the dismissal of RRBB as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective upon completion by RRBB of its audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and the filing of the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. On March 30, 2026, when we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, RRBB completed its audit of our consolidated financial statements for such year, and our engagement of RRBB as its independent registered public accounting firm ended as of that date.

    On January 20, 2026, the Audit Committee entered into an engagement letter with BDO for BDO to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

    RRBB’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were either of the reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that the report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 included an explanatory paragraph relating to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

    During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through March 30, 2026, there were: (i) no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions between the Company and RRBB on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to RRBB’s satisfaction, would have caused RRBB to make reference thereto in their reports; and (ii) no “reportable events” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

    The Company has provided RRBB with a copy of the disclosures made in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed in connection with the auditor change and requested that RRBB furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of RRBB’s letter, dated January 20, 2026, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 20, 2026.

    During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the subsequent interim period through January 20, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with BDO regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BDO concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions; or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

    Representatives of BDO are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. It is also expected that they will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

    Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

    On September 28, 2018, the Audit Committee of our Board adopted a policy and related procedures requiring its pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services to be rendered by its independent registered public accounting firm. These policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the provision of such services do not impair the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. All services provided by RRBB during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were approved by the Audit Committee.

    PROPOSAL 3: SAY ON PAY PROPOSAL

    Background of the Proposal

    The Dodd-Frank Act requires all public companies to hold a separate non-binding advisory shareholder vote to approve the compensation of executive officers as described in the executive compensation tables and any related information in each such company’s proxy statement (commonly known as a “Say on Pay” proposal). Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are holding a separate non-binding advisory vote on Say on Pay at the Annual Meeting.

    Say on Pay Resolution

    This Say on Pay proposal is set forth in the following resolution:

    RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Ondas Inc. approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of its named executive officers, as disclosed in the Ondas Inc.’s Proxy Statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation tables, and any related information found in the proxy statement of Ondas Inc.

    Because your vote on this proposal is advisory, it will not be binding on the Board, the Compensation Committee or the Company. However, the Compensation Committee will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

    At the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted to approve an annual holding of the advisory vote on executive compensation. This frequency will continue until the next required non-binding advisory vote is held on the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation in 2027, per the SEC rules.

    Vote Required and Board Recommendation

    The vote required for the Say on Pay Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the Say on Pay Proposal.

    PROPOSAL 4: CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

    Background of the Proposal

    We are asking our stockholders to approve an amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), to increase our authorized number of shares of Common Stock from 800,000,000 shares to 1,200,000,000 shares (the “Share Increase”).

    On April 9, 2026, the Board adopted resolutions unanimously approving, subject to stockholder approval, the proposed amendment to our Charter in the form of Annex A hereto (the “Charter Amendment”). At that time, the Board determined the proposed amendment and the Share Increase to be advisable and in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders and is accordingly submitting the proposed amendment and the Share Increase for approval by our stockholders. The additional 400,000,000 shares of Common Stock will be part of the existing class of Common Stock, and, if and when issued, would have the same rights and privileges as the shares of Common Stock presently issued and outstanding.

    As of the Record Date, our capitalization was as following:

    •        800,000,000 shares of our Common Stock were authorized;

    •        481,883,390 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding;

    •        196,319,805 shares of our Common Stock were reserved for the exercise of outstanding warrants, including 195,500,548 warrants with exercise prices of $20 per share and $28.00 per share (the closing price of our Common Stock on Nasdaq was $9.14 as of the Record Date);

    •        56,051,295 shares of our Common Stock were reserved for the exercise of outstanding stock options and vesting of outstanding restricted stock awards;

    •        129,773 shares of our Common Stock were reserved for future issuance under the 2018 Plan;

    •        1,919,328 shares of our Common Stock were reserved for future issuance under the 2021 Plan; and

    •        63,696,409 shares of our Common Stock were available for future issuance.

    Purpose

    Our Board believes that the authorized number of shares of Common Stock should be increased as a matter of good corporate governance to provide sufficient shares for such corporate purposes as may reasonably be determined by the Board to be necessary and in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders.

    The Board evaluates all potential uses of capital that may be available, in light of the Company’s cost of capital, market conditions, and the expected return on investment, with a focus on long-term stockholder value.

    The Company maintains a strong liquidity position and expects to fund its operations and growth initiatives through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, and, where appropriate, capital markets activity.

    The proposed Share Increase is intended to support the Company’s strategic growth initiatives, including its acquisition program and platform expansion, which the Board believes are critical to capturing significant market opportunities.

    As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents in excess of $1.4 billion (unaudited), providing significant flexibility to evaluate capital deployment decisions and structure transactions based on the relative cost of capital and long-term stockholder value. We currently do not have any specific plans, arrangements, undertakings or agreements to issue the additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Share Increase, other than as may arise in the ordinary course of business or in connection with the disciplined execution of our strategic plan.

    These purposes may include:

    •        expanding our business through the acquisition of other businesses, products, or assets;

    •        establishing partnerships, collaborations, and/or other strategic relationships with other companies;

    23

    Table of Contents

    •        our equity incentive plans;

    •        raising capital through the future sale of our Common Stock or other securities convertible or exercisable for shares of our Common Stock when necessary or appropriate; and

    •        other corporate purposes that have not yet been identified.

    In evaluating potential transactions, the Company may utilize a combination of cash, equity, or other forms of consideration depending on strategic and financial considerations.

    Our Board believes that these additional shares would provide us with needed flexibility to issue shares in the future without potential expense or delay incident to obtaining stockholder approval for a particular issuance, unless applicable law, rule or regulation requires stockholder approval for such issuance.

    Once authorized, the additional shares of Common Stock may be issued with approval of our Board but without further approval from our stockholders, unless applicable law, rule or regulation requires stockholder approval for such issuance. Stockholder approval of the Share Increase is required under Nevada law.

    Proposed Changes to the Charter

    The proposed Share Increase will increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance from 800,000,000 shares to 1,200,000,000 shares. The Company is currently authorized to issue 800,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“preferred stock”), of which 5,000,000 shares are designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 5,000,000 shares are non-designated shares (none of which are currently issued and outstanding). The Share Increase will not change any substantive terms of the Common Stock or preferred stock or any powers or rights of their respective holders. The Common Stock will continue to be listed and traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ONDS”.

    If this Proposal 4 is approved, we intend to amend our Charter in connection with implementing the proposal. A copy of the Charter Amendment is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A. Stockholders are encouraged to read the Charter Amendment in its entirety.

    Potential Effects of the Proposed Charter Amendment

    The additional shares of Common Stock would have rights identical to our Common Stock currently outstanding. Approval of the Share Increase and any issuance of Common Stock would not affect the rights of the holders of our Common Stock currently outstanding, except to the extent that future issuances of Common Stock would reduce each existing stockholder’s proportionate ownership.

    The Board also considered certain risks of the Charter Amendment. If the proposed Share Increase is approved and the Board decides to issue such shares of Common Stock, such issuance of Common Stock may, among other things, have a dilutive effect on earnings per share and on stockholders’ equity and voting rights. Furthermore, future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock, or the perception that these sales might occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our Common Stock or limit our ability to raise additional capital.

    The Board intends to consider the potential dilutive impact of any future issuance of Common Stock in light of the expected benefits to the Company and its stockholders, including the anticipated return on capital deployed.

    However, if the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock allows the Company to pursue its business plan and grow its business, the market price of the Common Stock may increase.

    Our Board has not proposed the increase in the amount of authorized shares with the intention of discouraging tender offers or takeover attempts. However, the availability of additional authorized shares for issuance may have the effect of discouraging a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or other attempt to obtain control.

    Vote Required and Board Recommendation

    The vote required for the Charter Amendment Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the Charter Amendment Proposal.

    PROPOSAL 5: INCENTIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

    Overview

    Upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board has approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to the 2021 Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan from 61,000,000 shares of Common Stock to 81,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Plan Increase Amendment”). Approval of this proposal will result in an additional 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2021 Plan representing approximately 4% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Record Date. The Board and Compensation Committee believe this level is appropriate in light of the Company’s growth stage, competitive market for talent, and peer group practices.

    As of April 9, 2026, there are (i) 23,983,012 shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding stock options granted pursuant to the 2021 Plan, (ii) 26,505,869 shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding RSUs granted pursuant to the 2021 Plan, and (iii) 1,919,328 shares of Common Stock available for future grants of equity awards pursuant to the 2021 Plan.

    The principal purpose of the 2021 Plan is to enable the Company to attract, retain, reward and motivate eligible individuals by providing them with an opportunity to acquire or increase a proprietary interest in the Company and to incentivize them to expend maximum effort for the growth and success of the Company, so as to strengthen the mutuality of the interests between the eligible individuals and the stockholders of the Company. The Plan Increase Amendment is required to continue to reward and incentivize the Company’s employees and support our strategic acquisition strategy. The Plan Increase Amendment would become effective on May 28, 2026, if approved by stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

    Factors Stockholders Should Consider When Voting on the Plan Increase Amendment

    Over the past twelve months, the Company has undergone a significant transformation, scaling its operating platform through both organic growth and a series of strategic acquisitions as part of its Core + Strategic Growth strategy. This transformation has expanded the Company’s global footprint, technology portfolio, and customer base, and has required the Company to attract, retain, and align a broader set of highly specialized leadership and technical personnel across multiple geographies and business units.

    Equity compensation has been used deliberately as a strategic tool to align the interests of key employees, executives, and acquired company leadership teams with long-term stockholder value creation. The Board and Compensation Committee believe that equity-based incentives are particularly important given the Company’s focus on advanced autonomous systems, defense technologies, and mission-critical infrastructure, where competition for talent is intense and long-term alignment is essential to execution.

    A substantial portion of equity granted under the 2021 Plan to date reflects two principal factors:

    •        Leadership Alignment:    Senior leadership, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, did not receive meaningful equity awards for an extended period prior to 2025. Recent equity grants were made to establish appropriate long-term alignment with stockholders as the Company entered a new phase of growth, scale, and execution. Also, in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, recent equity awards recognized exceptional performance, long-term commitment, and sustained leadership of the Company.

    •        Acquisition Integration and Retention:    In connection with the Company’s Strategic Growth program, equity awards have been used to retain and incentivize key personnel of acquired businesses where we felt providing competitive employee compensation and aligning incentives was an important factor in securing the acquisition and ensuring successful integration with the Company post-closing. The Company believes this alignment is critical to successfully integrating acquisitions, preserving intellectual capital, and achieving the expected strategic and financial benefits of these transactions. However, we recognize the grant of equity awards in connection with the Company’s Strategic Growth program has resulted in the depletion of shares of Common Stock available under the 2021 Plan at a faster rate than otherwise.

    The Company believes that these uses of equity are directly aligned with stockholder interests and are essential to building a scalable, high-performance operating platform.

    The 2021 Plan became effective on November 5, 2021 to provide for the grant of a variety of equity-based compensation awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards and other equity-based awards.

    25

    Table of Contents

    Our compensation philosophy reflects the Board’s belief that equity compensation is a critical means of aligning the interests of employees with those of stockholders.

    The Company is requesting this increase in authorized shares of Common Stock under the 2021 Plan to support anticipated equity grant activity over the next two years, including ongoing retention and incentive needs as well as continued disciplined execution of its growth strategy.

    The Board and Compensation Committee believe this level is appropriate in light of the Company’s growth stage, competitive market for talent, and peer group practices.

    Commitment to Responsible Equity Usage and Stockholder Alignment

    Equity awards are a vital part of our overall compensation program. Our compensation philosophy reflects broad-based eligibility for equity incentive awards, and we grant awards to substantially all of our employees. However, we recognize the potential dilutive impact of equity awards and committed to managing equity compensation responsibly. The Compensation Committee oversees all equity grants and considers factors including individual performance, market benchmarks, retention needs, and alignment with long-term stockholder value creation.

    Equity awards are generally subject to multi-year vesting requirements and, in many cases, are structured to reward sustained performance and long-term contribution. The Company expects to continue to use equity awards selectively and in a disciplined manner.

    This section summarizes certain principal features of the 2021 Plan for the Plan Increase Amendment. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to (i) the Plan Increase Amendment, which is included as Annex B of this proxy statement, (ii) the complete text of the 2021 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.15 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, and incorporated herein by reference, (iii) the complete text of the Amendment to the 2021 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.18 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, and incorporated herein by reference, (iv) the complete text of the Amendment to the 2021 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.19 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, and incorporated herein by reference, (v) the complete text of the Amendment to the 2021 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.21 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, and incorporated herein by reference, (vi) the complete text of the Amendment to the 2021 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.22 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, and incorporated herein by reference, (vii) the complete text of the Amendment to the 2021 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.23 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, and incorporated herein by reference. Also, a summary of the principal features of 2021 Plan was included in our definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 7, 2021.

    Pursuant to Nasdaq rules, the Company and other Nasdaq listed companies are generally not permitted to grant shares of common stock as compensation except pursuant to a plan approved by stockholders.

    The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR the amendment to increase authorized shares under the 2021 Plan because the amendment will allow the Company to achieve important business objectives in ways that are consistent with stockholder interests.

    The Board believes that approval of the Plan Increase Amendment will support the Company’s ability to continue executing its strategic growth initiatives, retain and motivate key personnel, and align compensation with long-term value creation for stockholders.

    New Stock Incentive Plan Benefits

    No Awards have been made with respect to the Plan Increase Amendment and as such, we have not included a New Plan Benefits table called for by Item 10 of Schedule 14A.

    Vote Required and Board Recommendation

    The vote required for the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal is a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal.

    $100Billion+ Drone Services Boom Fuels Rapid Rise of Drone-as-a-Service

    Advanced AI, automation, and data analytics push DaaS into the mainstream across key industriesMarket News Updates News Commentary CounterNEW YORK, April 9, 2026 /CNW/ -- The Drone-as-a-Service (DaaS) industry is growing quickly as more companies choose to 'rent' drone services instead of buying and managing drones themselves.

Right now, the global DaaS market is worth around $12–13 billion, and it's expected to grow to about $34 billion by 2032, showing steady and reliable growth over the next several years fueling active companies to increase operations and forging

    Defense Industry Disrupted as Drone-as-a-Service Market Accelerates Toward $100 Billion

    NEW YORK, March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Market News Updates News Commentary - The defense world is starting to treat drones less like one-time purchases and more like a service you can "subscribe" to. Instead of buying fleets outright, militaries can now pay for Drone-as-a-Service (DaaS)—where a provider handles the drones, maintenance, software updates, and even operations. It's a lot like how companies moved from owning servers to using cloud computing. This shift makes things faster and more flexible, especially since drone tech evolves so quickly. Rather than being stuck with outdated hardware, defense teams can constantly access the latest capabilities, from surveillance to AI-po
