Hello!

We wanted to give you a quick intraday update on our new alert, ZenaTech (NASDAQ: ZENA).

ZENA opened today at 1.38 with a high so far of 1.39 - holding firm and building a potential base for a breakout opportunity.

This is the type of opportunity that could be setting up here:

ZENA has a 20 and 50-day moving average of 1.94 and 2.14, +40% and +55% above today’s open.

Beyond that, the 200-day moving average sits at 3.63 - that is +163% above today's open.

It does not need to get there to produce big gains.

But that gap tells you exactly how much room exists on this chart – and it has a history of making double digit and even triple digit breakouts.

ZENA has big upside potential and multiple recent developments, including breaking news this morning, that could bring more attention to this hidden gem.

“ZenaTech Advances Three ZenaDrone Defense Platforms Through Blue UAS Certification Pathway”

“VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology solution provider specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, announces that three of its ZenaDrone subsidiary’s defense platforms—the ZenaDrone 1000, IQ Square, and IQ Nano—have advanced to the cybersecurity phase of the U.S. Department of Defense’s Blue UAS certification pathway, positioning the company for eligibility on U.S. government and defense procurement lists. The three platforms are being evaluated together under the recently streamlined Green-to-Blue framework administered by the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI). Blue UAS certification establishes National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) compliance and clears a vendor for direct procurement by U.S. defense agencies, federal departments, and allied government buyers.”

Here are some of the company’s comments from this press release:

“Blue UAS certification unlocks direct access to the U.S. defense agency market, a high-growth, NDAA-compliant opportunity we are positioning to capture,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., CEO of ZenaTech. “Demand for secure autonomous systems is accelerating across intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, logistics, and asymmetric warfare, and our progress through cybersecurity, manufacturing, and supply chain readiness reflects disciplined execution. We are on the final stretch toward certification and look forward to delivering scalable, mission-critical drone solutions to government and defense customers.”

Furthermore:

“ZenaDrone’s submissions have completed phases one and two of the AUVSI-administered pathway, including application onboarding and submission of the consolidated hardware bill of materials (HBOM) and NDAA supply-chain compliance documentation across all three platforms. The drones are now advancing to phase three—cybersecurity validation—where third-party penetration testing will assess system resilience, encryption integrity, and operational security under simulated adversarial conditions. Final Blue UAS status remains subject to successful completion of the remaining certification phases and the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) review.”

Importantly:

“The Blue UAS pathway has shifted materially since ZenaTech filed its initial Green UAS applications last year to the benefit of “made in America” drone manufacturers and the advancement of innovation. Under the updated Green-to-Blue framework, the Department of Defense now leverages third-party assessors and the Green UAS process—including AUVSI-led evaluations—to perform much of the cybersecurity, supply-chain, and NDAA compliance validation earlier in the pipeline. While the DoD retains ultimate authority over Blue UAS status and defense procurement access, the path leading to certification has become more distributed, scalable, and faster for domestic manufacturers.”

ZenaDrone’s multi-function AI drone systems currently in this certification process include:

  • “The ZenaDrone 1000, a medium-sized VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) rugged construction drone capable of lifting ~40 kg, with AI-enabled autonomy, and secure communications via its proprietary Drone Net system. Designed for inspection, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications, critical cargo applications, and border patrol via a gas version currently under development, being designed for longer flights. It has undergone paid trials with both the U.S. Air Force and Navy Reserve for applications, including critical cargo delivery such as temperature-controlled medical supplies.

  • The IQ Nano, a compact indoor drone (starting size 20″×20″), built to operate in GPS-denied environments such as warehouses or military facilities for inventory management via barcode scanning and security applications, features obstacle avoidance and AI-driven drone swarms or fleets.

  • The IQ Square, a VTOL drone (starting size 40”×40”) engineered for line-of-sight surveys, infrastructure inspections, road and bridge inspections, and defense reconnaissance tasks.”

For a clean breakout, watch for ZENA to hold above recent lows, and close near the highs of the day.

We are continuing to monitor ZENA for a sustainable breakout higher.
