ZenaTech has signed multiple offers to acquire surveying and geospatial services companies in the United States, Canada, and Australia. Subject to closing, the company expects these acquisitions to collectively contribute approximately C$40 million in revenue during the first 12 months post-closing, based on unaudited financial information from the target companies and management estimates. CEO Shaun Passley described the signed offers as a transformative milestone in building a leading drone-as-a-service business, noting they expand customer relationships, geographic reach, and geospatial expertise while creating a scalable platform for AI-powered drone autonomy solutions. The proposed transactions are part of ZenaTech's strategy to acquire traditional low-tech firms and convert their operations to a Drone-as-a-Service model, with each acquisition remaining subject to customary closing conditions including due diligence and definitive agreements.

Lowe's Launches Drone Delivery From North Carolina Store
Lowe's Companies has begun drone delivery from its Matthews, North Carolina store, offering selected home improvement and household items in as little as 20 minutes through partners Wing and DoorDash. The pilot launch comes as Lowe's shares have been under pressure, with a 30-day share price return down 8.83%, a year-to-date share price return down 26.13%, and a 1-year total shareholder return down 24.75%. The company is also accelerating its shift toward professional contractors while strengthening its Total Home strategy for DIY and Do It For Me customers, supported by major acquisitions including Foundation Building Materials and Artisan Design Group plus digital investments. The most followed narrative values Lowe's at $255.00 against a last close of $182.38, a 28.5% undervalued estimate based on discounted future cash flows. That story could break if Pro demand softens for longer than expected or if the FBM and ADG integrations drag on profitability.
SkyDrive to Study Turning Osaka's 146 Rooftop Emergency Landing Sites into eVTOL Vertiports
SkyDrive Inc. announced it will launch a feasibility study to repurpose the 146 existing rooftop emergency landing sites in Osaka City as eVTOL vertiports, part of the Cabinet Office's Super City Initiative. The project will be conducted with partners including Osaka Prefecture, Osaka City, Osaka Metro, Kansai Electric Power Co. Inc., Chodai Co. Ltd., and the Organization of Airport Facilitation, with Osaka Metro serving as leader and SkyDrive handling survey design and Civil Aeronautics Act compliance. The study will verify surrounding airspace and obstacle limitation surfaces, survey wind and noise impacts from surrounding buildings, assess floor load capacities and charging infrastructure for repurposing the sites into alternate vertiports, and draft coexistence rules with authorities including the Osaka Municipal Fire Department. The 146 rooftop sites, marked with an H and required on buildings over 100 meters tall under local fire safety regulations, are currently limited to emergency disaster relief, and securing commercial passenger transport permits for them remains a significant regulatory challenge. SkyDrive and Osaka Metro are working toward commercial launch of eVTOL services by approximately 2028 within Osaka Prefecture and Osaka City, areas designated as Super City National Strategic Special Zones.

DoorDash Air Unveils Drone Delivery System, Pilot to Start in Northern California
DoorDash unveiled its purpose-built autonomous aircraft powered by DoorDash Air and outlined plans for an end-to-end drone delivery system designed to scale for all local businesses. Pilot drone deliveries will begin in Northern California in partnership with national restaurant brands including Chipotle Mexican Grill and Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, along with local restaurant Momo N Curry. DoorDash said about 80% of today's typical restaurant orders are light and small enough for the aircraft to carry safely, and that initial tests showed delivery times from restaurant to consumer's door averaging under five minutes. The system runs on DoorDash's Autonomous Delivery Platform, the same platform coordinating Dashers, the Dot ground robot, and third-party autonomous delivery partners, and the company said it has already completed hundreds of thousands of lifetime autonomous deliveries. Harrison Shih, Head of DoorDash Air, said the team started with how local businesses actually operate rather than with the aircraft, building ground infrastructure, loading systems, packaging, and order data first.
