Tonner Drones Invests €1.25 Million in SpaceX
On January 28, 2026, Tonner Drones announced the securing of a strategic investment position in SpaceX, the global leader in aerospace manufacturing. This investment of €1.25 million was financed by reallocating proceeds from the recent divestiture of its stake in Donecle.
Strategic Investment
Tonner Drones has made a strategic investment in SpaceX by deploying €1.25 million from the sale of its stake in Donecle. The investment is part of a portfolio diversification phase announced following the stabilization of the company's financial situation in 2025. The press release specifies that SpaceX currently dominates the global launch market with its Falcon and Starship platforms, and provides connectivity through its Starlink constellation.
Investment Rationale
Tonner Drones justifies this investment by anticipating a potential IPO of SpaceX, described in the press release as a major catalyst for the valuation of the stake. This decision is part of the company's overall strategy, which also holds positions in Elistair and Diodon, as well as ongoing R&D activities on proprietary warehouse inventory management solutions. Diede van den Ouden, CEO of Tonner Drones, stated that this operation represents a step of disciplined growth and asset diversification.
Risk Warning
The press release includes a warning section explicitly stating that the text contains forward-looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties. The IPO of SpaceX is not confirmed and its timing is not specified. The release emphasizes that actual results could differ materially from those stated in the expectations.
