Critical Report on Ondas (ONDS) Precedes Defense Unit's $30M Contract in Israel

By Miko Ilas | February 18, 2026, 7:38 PM

Ondas Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) is one of the 13 hot stocks to buy with the highest upside potential. On February 9, Ondas Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) announced that its subsidiary 4M Defense has secured a multi-year demining contract in Israel valued at more than $30 million. The contract, which has an initial execution period of up to three years, covers about 741 acres along the Israel-Syria border and is described as one of the largest land-clearance initiatives ever undertaken in Israel.

Meanwhile, on February 4, JCapital Research issued a critical report questioning the company’s business model and financial sustainability. While JCapital Research did not issue an overt rating on the stock, the research firm argued that Ondas could struggle to sustain its hype due to concerns about its revenue growth strategy. JCapital criticized Ondas for pursuing “high-priced, money-losing acquisitions funded by massive share dilution,” claiming that the company is buying its way into military contracts for nosebleed prices without demonstrating a clear path to profitability.
