Kraken Robotics should trade at a US$3.0-3.5 billion market cap by the end of 2026, given revenue guidance of $290-320 million and a path to $1 billion of revenue in 2030. x.comÂ

Kraken Robotics looks undervalued against its revenue path. It was projected to reach $1B of revenue by 2030 before the Covelya deal, and $1.5B now seems reasonable, yet the company trades at a $1.38B valuation. The stock is also in a bullish structure, which makes a bearish view hard to justify. x.comÂ
Covelya could substantially lift Kraken Robotics' revenue, with projected combined gross margins of 60%. The attached slide shows $305M in estimated 2026 revenue versus $102M in 2025. That makes the stock very compelling under $3, around a $1B market cap, and a potential long-term winner, though stronger revenue growth must be demonstrated to jumpstart it; this call could be wrong. x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics is the subsystem prime for underwater drones, putting $3-5 million of content per hull in reach as Anduril and navies scale uncrewed fleets. Its offering spans batteries, sonar and navigation via Covelya/Sonardyne. Funds that bought near CAD $2 two years ago have spent four months clearing their positions, and that selling is mostly past. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics looks expensive at 11x sales, or 2x next year's, when the industry usually gets 1x. At 1x next year's sales, give or take 12%, fair value is about $1.86-$2.37, leaving the $2.91 US-listed price 23% above the high end. The estimate leans on forecast sales 128% above trailing. This is a valuation-level read only, not fundamental work. x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics offers one of the best risk-reward setups in defense, giving exposure to Anduril's autonomy trend at a fraction of the valuation. It supplies SeaPower subsea batteries for Anduril's underwater drone programs, has 2026 product orders of $327-355M and guides to $290-320M revenue and $65-75M adjusted EBITDA, yet sits near a sub-$1B market cap after a 60%+ drop. It plans a full TSX listing in late 2026 or early 2027, and $10 is the target. x.comÂ
These five defense autonomy companies can each 10x on fast-growing drone, unmanned and counter-drone businesses. Kraken Robotics makes subsea drones, batteries and sonar for autonomous underwater warfare. Ondas grew TTM revenue 979% to $174M and guides 2026 to $525M-$550M. Kratos has a $2B backlog in unmanned systems, hypersonics and missile defense. AeroVironment grew TTM revenue 84% to $2.0B on military drones, and Red Cat grew 867% with a 2026 target of $150M-$180M. x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics is not yet a buy despite falling almost 60% from its high. It should first report combined results with Covelya that preserve a credible growth and margin path, and the stock should form a base; the defence factor remains deeply out of favor. @DeepSailCapital argues it is near a bottom, expecting CAD 0.20 of 2028 EPS, mid-20s to 30s revenue growth and product ramps with Anduril. x.com x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics' organic results are strong, and adding Covelya should make the picture even better. Per Kraken Robotics, Q1 2026 revenue grew 35% year over year and 2026 guidance was reiterated. x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics is evolving from a small sonar supplier into a global subsea defense platform and should do well heading into Anduril's eventual IPO. Catalysts over the next 6-12 months include closing the $615M Covelya acquisition with updated guidance, Anduril's July Navy CAMP Dive-XL demonstration, possible NATO subsea spending pledges, new battery capacity and contracts in H2 2026, and EU cable-security funding in Q4. Integration, dilution, debt and back-half revenue are the risks. x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics is stuck in a trap as its key catalyst, the Anduril subsea ramp, is delayed by at least a year. That ramp likely needs a US battery facility and a Navy order to confirm, and the defense budget showed no large FY27 subsea-drone order. The market has also turned on drone and defense stocks after they ran ahead of a multi-year buildout, and without an uplisting from its junior exchange institutional ownership and volume stay thin. Second-half earnings may bring some support. x.comÂ
Kraken Robotics looks overlooked even though its CEO and executives recently bought shares above the current price, and the CEO already holds about $35m of stock. Kraken is profitable yet trades at a discount to unprofitable peers, and its triple-digit P/E means little for a scaling business. x.com x.com x.com x.comÂ
