Key takeaways

What improved, and what deserves a closer read.

Constructive signals

  • FY25 revenue of $35.6M versus $15.1M in FY24, described as ahead of guidance
  • Commercial aircraft backlog of 891 aircraft (289 firm / 602 options) worth approximately $3.5B as of Dec 31, 2025, with expectation to top $4B by year-end
  • Selected to supply motors to Eve Air Mobility in a 10-year, up to $1B opportunity, adding to enabling technologies backlog
  • H500A electric engine certification on track for FAA type certification in 1H 2026, with 11 propulsion systems built and FAA-conformed and durability testing completed
  • 125,000+ nautical miles flown year-to-date, targeting 0.25 million nautical miles in 2026
  • Charging network reached 107 sites (57 active), with 2026 goal of 150 total sites and ownership of the only UL-certified aviation charging network

Risks & pressure points

  • FY25 net loss of ($745.9M) and Adjusted EBITDA loss of ($304.1M)
  • 2026 implied cash use of approximately $500M (excluding any eIPP investment), with $200M CapEx at midpoint
  • Q4 GAAP gross margin dollars of $6.9M against an Adjusted EBITDA loss frame, indicating continued operating losses as production ramps
  • Production conformance build phase in 1H 2026 before ramping to 4.5 aircraft/month by year-end, meaning revenue scale is back-loaded
  • CEO acknowledged H500A certification effort is 'not without challenges' as the company drives through remaining test articles

“Over the course of the year, we added over $1 billion to our commercial aircraft backlog and separately, an additional $1 billion to our backlog of enabling technologies. Our current aircraft backlog sits at 891 aircraft in firm and option orders backed by a financial commitment. By the end of the year, we expect our commercial aircraft backlog to top $4 billion and to steadily increase our enabling technologies backlog.” Kyle Clark, CEO
