“The Kiryat Ono, Israel-based company plans to raise $16 million by offering 2.5 million units at a price range of $5.20 to $7.20. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and two warrants, exercisable at the IPO price. At the midpoint of the proposed range, ParaZero Technologies would command a full diluted market value of $58 million,” says the Renaissance Capital announcement.
ParaZero is the latest drone ecosystem player to join the markets. Drone safety systems have come to the forefront of the industry as global regulators consider flight beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) flight and advanced operations. Currently, drone parachutes – ParaZero has a patented system that deploys as part of their autonomous safety system – are the most commercially viable means of meeting regulator’s ground impact standards for flight over people.
In addition to the drone safety systems that ParaZero has produced for popular commercial off the shelf (COTS) drones like the DJI Mavic series, the company develops safety systems for uncrewed aircraft of all sizes, up to eVTOL passenger drones. Their robust OEM business has allowed drone manufacturers around the world to integrate with ParaZero’s SafeAir systems: including Speedbird Aero’s autonomous delivery drones in Brazil.
“ParaZero Technologies was founded in 2013 and booked $1 million in revenue for the 12 months ended December 31, 2021. It plans to list on the Nasdaq under the symbol PRZO,” says the Renaissance Capital announcement.
