On October 29, AeroVironment rose 5.14% in Regular Trading, trading at $133.175/share, with turnover of $32.7696 million.
A recent catalyst was Oppenheimer’s October 22 initiation of AeroVironment with an Outperform rating and a $205 price target, alongside its view that counter-unmanned aircraft systems represent the company’s best next leg of growth.
That call followed a period of supportive company-specific developments, including fiscal Q1 results reported on September 9 that beat expectations, with adjusted EPS of $0.59 on revenue of $480.5 million, while the company maintained full-year guidance. Earlier in September, AeroVironment also announced a $464.8 million U.S. Army laser weapons contract and a separate international LOCUST laser system order valued at more than $50 million, reinforcing investor focus on its counter-drone and directed-energy exposure.
