Exhibit 99.1

 

Ondas Enters into Definitive Agreement to Strengthens Multi-Domain Autonomy Leadership with Strategic Acquisition of Robotics Innovator Apeiro Motion

 

Apeiro will expand Ondas’ capabilities into ground robotics and add fiber optic components for radio-independent UAV and UGV communications

 

Through mature platforms, strategic customer relationships, and an expected $12 million in 2025 revenues, Apeiro will accelerate operating scale and commercial reach

 

Acquisition demonstrates Ondas’ commitment to leveraging its global operating platform to deliver a portfolio of advanced, AI-enabled capabilities to critical defense and security customers

 

Transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025

 

BOSTON, MA / August 18, 2025 / Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ONDS) (“Ondas” or the “Company”), a leading provider of private industrial wireless networks and commercial drone and automated data solutions, today announced a definitive agreement to acquire Apeiro Motion (“Apeiro”), an Israeli developer of advanced ground robotics, fiber optic communications systems and mission-critical automation technologies which will be operated under the Company’s Ondas Autonomous Systems (“OAS”) business unit. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025.

 

“Apeiro will bring to Ondas a rare combination of world-class engineering talent, field-proven platform development capabilities, and trusted relationships with premier defense customers,” said Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas. “Their team has shown an exceptional ability to deliver mature, mission-ready autonomous systems that are both innovative and operationally valuable. We believe this acquisition will align perfectly with our strategy to lead the autonomous defense and security sector by bringing operating scale, commercial reach, and platform integration to the next generation of dual-use robotic technologies.”

 

Apeiro develops advanced ground robotics and automation systems for mission-critical defense, homeland security, and industrial applications. Its product lineup includes rugged quadrupedal robots, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), robotic arms, and a proprietary fiber-optic spool designed for secure, radio-independent communications for first person view (FPV) drones, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and missiles. Engineered for reliability in contested and harsh environments, Apeiro’s modular, autonomous platforms support intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), logistics, perimeter defense, and inspection missions. With field deployments underway alongside leading Israeli defense agencies.

 

“Joining forces with Ondas will unlock our ability to scale globally and integrate into a broader autonomy ecosystem,” said Rotem Lesher, CEO of Apeiro. “We’re excited to bring our mission-ready technologies to a wider set of defense and security partners.”

 

The acquisition of Apeiro will expand Ondas Autonomous Systems’ multi-domain autonomy capabilities and extend OAS’s portfolio, enabling new mission capabilities and integrated operations across domains. The transaction will also accelerate Ondas’ access to key global defense markets, including the U.S. Department of Defense, NATO, and European Union, through mature platforms and strategic customer relationships. Apeiro’s strengths in autonomy software, AI, vision systems, and low size, weight, and power (SWaP) hardware complement OAS’s core competencies, supporting the delivery of scalable, high-performance solutions. Together, the combined platform will advance Ondas’ dual-use strategy and enhance time-to-market, operational efficiency, and global reach. The total addressable market (TAM) for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) targeted by Apeiro’s portfolio is more than $3.0 billion according to market research firms such as Global Market Insights.

 

 


 

Apeiro’s proprietary fiber optic spools represent a critical enabler for radio-independent communications in FPV drones, UAVs, UGVs and missile systems. Designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern battlefield environments, these combat-proven spools are engineered for high-reliability, low-signature performance in contested and denied environments. Smaller and lighter than competing solutions, Apeiro’s spools enable optimized mission execution by extending the range and survivability of tethered and guided systems. Each unit is fully customizable in fiber type, diameter, dimensions, and length, and is manufactured with Western-allied supply chains to meet strict defense and homeland security standards. Apeiro’s micro-spools address the rapidly growing market in military markets for supporting the navigation of FPV drones, UAVs and missiles.

 

Under the terms of the agreement, Ondas will acquire 100% of Apeiro for a transaction value of $12 million. The consideration will be structured as a mix of cash and/or equity at Ondas’ discretion. Apeiro is expected to generate over $12 million in revenue during calendar 2025.
