Exosens, based in Mérignac, expects to outperform its previous 2026 guidance, driven by a faster-than-anticipated ramp-up in production capacity for image intensifier tubes and by rising adoption of its imaging and detection solutions for drones, anti-drone systems and long-range surveillance.
The French group says demand for night-vision technology is at record levels, supporting a stronger outlook than it had initially forecast. The improvement reflects both industrial execution — with production scaling up more quickly than planned — and a favorable market environment, as defense and security customers increasingly turn to Exosens’ technologies for airborne and perimeter-monitoring applications.
The company’s revised expectations underline the momentum in its core business and the growing role of its products in military and security use cases, particularly where low-light imaging and detection capabilities are critical.
