Vertical Aerospace Calls January 2026 EGM to Approve Major Share Capital Increase

Vertical Aerospace ( (EVTL) ) has provided an announcement.

On December 29, 2025, Vertical Aerospace Ltd. called an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) of shareholders to be held on January 20, 2026 in Bristol, U.K., with a record date of December 29, 2025, to vote on significant changes to its capital structure and corporate constitution. The board is asking shareholders to approve an increase in the company’s authorized share capital from US$210,000 (200,000,000 ordinary shares plus 10,000,000 preferred shares) to US$1,010,000 (1,000,000,000 ordinary shares plus 10,000,000 preferred shares), and to adopt a new, fifth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association reflecting this higher authorization. The company says the larger share pool is needed to cover current contingent obligations to issue ordinary shares and to accommodate future equity issuance, signalling continued reliance on share-based financing and providing greater flexibility for future corporate actions, which could have material implications for existing shareholders’ dilution and for Vertical’s ability to raise capital in the competitive advanced air mobility market.

The most recent analyst rating on (EVTL) stock is a Buy with a $11.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Vertical Aerospace stock, see the EVTL Stock Forecast page.

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, EVTL is a Underperform.

Vertical Aerospace’s stock is facing significant challenges primarily due to its poor financial performance, characterized by substantial operational losses and negative equity. The technical indicators show a bearish trend, and the valuation metrics highlight financial difficulties with a negative P/E ratio. The absence of earnings call data or corporate events further limits any positive outlook.
