DroneShield posts record FY2025 revenue and expands global counter-drone pipeline

An announcement from DroneShield Limited ( (AU:DRO) ) is now available.

DroneShield has released the transcript of its FY2025 investor call, highlighting a step-change in scale as revenue surged to about A$260 million, roughly four times the prior year. The company reported profitability with about A$3.5 million net profit, A$33 million in underlying profit before tax and A$15.9 million in net operating cash, underscoring its strategy of pairing rapid growth with positive earnings and cash flow.

Management detailed a robust and increasingly diversified sales pipeline, which has expanded from A$2.1 billion to A$2.3 billion in the past month, driven largely by Asia-Pacific opportunities across roughly 295 deals. With 460 staff in seven countries, more than 350 engineers and over A$200 million in cash supporting annual R&D spend above A$70 million, DroneShield positions itself to capitalise on the fast-growing counter-drone market, including pursuing several large contracts, one of which is valued at about A$750 million after currency movements.
