Red Cat: Guidance Or Not, Path Is Higher

Update - May 28, 2026 

Red Cat is now up 40% on beginning production of the USVs, though no news on contracts. These boats cost upwards of $1M each. Also, the drone sector is jumping on news Trump is pushing for equity stakes in drone companies, though ironically shareholder dilution isn't bullish.

  • Red Cat Holdings is positioned for significant growth in defense drones and robotics, with an unofficial 2026 revenue target of $170 million.
  • The company is ramping up USV and drone production, targeting multi-billion-dollar opportunities, but refrains from formal guidance until government contracts are secured.
  • Recent NATO-aligned Black Widow drone orders and robust cash reserves ($168 million) support operational expansion and future upside.
  • Key risks include high competition and uncertainty in USV order flow; war de-escalation could dampen demand for RCAT's defense solutions.
Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (RCAT) was initially disappointed with Q4'25 earnings back in mid-March due to the company not providing financial guidance for this year. The drone company offered enough hints to calm the fears on revenue upside for the year. My investment thesis remains bullish on the stock, though any end to the Iranian conflict might cut the investor sentiment on the modern defense stock.
