AgEagle Aerial Systems (NYSE American: UAVS) is an unmanned aerial systems company that designs, manufactures, and sells fixed-wing drones, multispectral sensors, and drone software. Revenue comes from hardware sales of eBee-branded fixed-wing drones and MicaSense-branded sensors, distributed through a global reseller network of more than 165 drone solutions providers across 80-plus countries as of the FY2025 10-K filed March 31, 2026. The company operates manufacturing and assembly facilities in Wichita, Kansas (corporate headquarters), Cheseaux-sur-Lausanne, Switzerland, and a Texas facility announced for production in 2026. AgEagle targets commercial agricultural, government, defense, and infrastructure inspection end markets. Its eBee X series drones carry both C2 and C6 EU class identification labels, enabling beyond-visual-line-of-sight operations across Europe without individual regulatory waivers. The company competes for U.S. government and commercial customers partly on its domestic manufacturing position, as measures restricting Chinese-manufactured drones have created demand for U.S.-made alternatives.
