Draganfly ( (TSE:DPRO) ) has shared an announcement.

On May 7, 2026, Draganfly Inc. announced an exclusive master distributor agreement with ACSL, Japan’s largest drone maker, to bring NDAA-compliant ACSL drones, including the flagship SOTEN platform, to the Canadian market and integrate technologies across both firms’ product lines. The move positions Draganfly as ACSL’s sole Canadian partner, expanding its portfolio with a compact, multi-mission SOTEN drone and interoperable TAITEN smart controller, as Canada’s commercial drone market races toward a projected $10 billion by 2030.

The collaboration will enable cross-platform interoperability, allowing Draganfly drones such as the Apex and Commander 3XL to use SOTEN’s swappable camera payloads and ACSL’s ground control systems, giving enterprise and public safety customers more flexible fleet options. By securing exclusivity and emphasizing trusted manufacturing, secure communications, and modular design, Draganfly strengthens its competitive position in Canada’s growing enterprise drone sector, with SOTEN due to become available nationwide through Draganfly starting in June 2026.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:DPRO) stock is a Buy with a C$14.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Draganfly stock, see the TSE:DPRO Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on DPRO Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, DPRO is a Neutral.

The score is weighed down primarily by weak financial performance (large losses, margin pressure, and negative free cash flow) and bearish technicals (below major moving averages with negative MACD). Offsetting these factors, the latest earnings call points to improving growth momentum and substantial cash runway to fund a planned revenue ramp, but profitability remains the key risk.
