Archer Aviation (ACHR), a maker of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, is scheduled to report its Q2 2025 earnings on Monday, August 11, after market close. Its stock has jumped 156% over the past year, helped by global deals and strong interest in electric flying taxis. However, the company still remains a pre-commercial, pre-revenue enterprise, making it a speculative bet. As a result, analysts remain moderately bullish on ACHR stock ahead of Q2 earnings.

What to Watch on August 11
Wall Street analysts expect ACHR to report a loss per share of $0.25 for Q2 compared to a loss of $0.32 in the same quarter last year. Meanwhile, analysts project Q2 revenues at $200.00K, according to the TipRanks Analyst Forecasts Page.
Investors will watch how much money Archer is spending, how far it is from getting flight approval, and whether there are any updates on when commercial aircraft deliveries will begin.
Analyst’s Take Ahead of Q2
JPMorgan’s analyst Bill Peterson recently raised his price target on Archer Aviation from $9 to $10 but kept a Neutral rating. He noted the growing excitement around the eVTOL sector but called it “irrational exuberance.”
Peterson said the recent executive order from the Trump administration shows long-term government support for the industry, but it likely won’t affect earnings outlook in the near term. He also pointed to ongoing cash burn and possible delays in generating revenue as key risks.
Technical Indicators Suggest “Neutral”
Technically, the stock is sending mixed signals. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator, which helps understand momentum and potential price changes, suggests that Archer is a Buy. However, the 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages suggest otherwise. Both are above the current price, indicating a Sell.
Overall technical sentiment is Neutral.
Is Archer Aviation Stock a Good Buy?
Overall, Wall Street has a Moderate Buy consensus rating on ACHR stock, based on four Buys and two Holds assigned in the last three months. The average ACHR price target of $11.92 implies about 21.02% upside potential from current levels.
