ZenaTech, Inc. ( (ZENA) ) has shared an update.

On May 15, 2026, ZenaTech entered a securities purchase agreement with institutional investors for a registered direct offering of 11,792,455 common shares and accompanying warrants, each unit priced at $2.12. The warrants, exercisable immediately at $2.50 per share and expiring in five and a half years, may be redeemed early if the stock trades above $6.75 for ten straight sessions.

The financing, placed solely by Maxim Group, is expected to raise roughly $25 million in gross proceeds for ZenaTech before fees, with closing targeted around May 18, 2026, subject to customary conditions. The transaction, conducted under an effective F-3 shelf registration, underscores ZenaTech’s reliance on capital markets to fund operations and growth in its drone technology business, with implications for shareholder dilution but also enhanced liquidity to execute its expansion plans.

The most recent analyst rating on (ZENA) stock is a Buy with a $7.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ZenaTech, Inc. stock, see the ZENA Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on ZENA Stock

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

The score is primarily constrained by weak financial performance: sharply higher losses and significant, worsening cash burn outweigh strong recent revenue growth, even with an improved 2025 capitalization profile. Technically, the stock remains in a broader downtrend (below longer-term moving averages with negative MACD). Valuation is also limited by negative earnings and no dividend yield data.
