2227 GMT - Bell Potter analyst Daniel Laing sounds an alarm about Australian anti-drone company DroneShield, saying that he had expected a greater value of contracts to be announced by this stage in the year. He downgrades the stock to hold from buy and cuts his 2024 annual revenue estimate by 15%. But he points out there is still upside risk to his new forecasts: multiple contracts could still be announced before the end of the year, and there could be greater underlying sales than anticipated in 3Q and 4Q. He expects a 3Q update from the company in the coming weeks. (mike.cherney@wsj.com; @Mike_Cherney)
