ASIC investigation into DroneShield’s ASX announcements, information in November 2025

“DroneShield advises that it has received a notice from ASIC requiring it to provide reasonable assistance in connection with an investigation under the Corporations Act,” according to a company statement published on 12 May.

“DroneShield will cooperate fully with the investigation regarding announcements and information provided to the Australian Securities Exchange between 1 and 20 November 2025, and trading in DroneShield shares between 6 and 12 November 2025 (inclusive).

“It is not clear what action, if any, may result from ASIC’s investigation.”

The company also received a letter from ASX Compliance in November last year, querying trading of securities in that period.

Defence Connect has approached DroneShield for comment about the recent ASIC notice.
