Successful Prototype Flight Campaign Initiation
Completed first flight (Dec 19) and to date performed 28 flights totaling 1 hour 6 minutes of flight time (≈66 minutes). Prototype validated control laws, eight-lifter integration, energy management, dynamic response and noise footprint; transitioned to longer flights, higher altitudes and on-air maneuvers. Current progress represents ~9.3% of the ~300-flight campaign planned for 2026 (28/300).
Clear Roadmap for Flight Campaign Phases
Defined four-phase campaign (hover/initial maneuvers, partial transition <30 knots, cruise beyond transition, failure/injection testing) with planned ramp to ~300 flights in 2026 to gather data for TOP certification and envelope expansion.
Commercial Momentum and Large Preorder Backlog
Signed a firm order with Japan AirX (2 firm + option for 48). Total preorder backlog ~2,700 aircraft with an estimated list value of ~$13.5 billion (2025 list prices).
Aftermarket and ATM Revenue Potential
Secured 14 customers for the Eve TechCare aftermarket suite (potential ~ $1.6 billion in revenue) and 21 customers for Vector air traffic management. TechCare potential represents ~11.9% of the ~$13.5B backlog value (1.6/13.5 ≈ 11.9%).
Strong Liquidity Position
Ended 2025 with total liquidity of $541 million (cash ~$390–$393 million + $150 million undrawn BNDES facility). After a new syndicated loan, total liquidity increased to $641 million (an increase of $100M, ≈18.5%). Company states liquidity is sufficient to cover capital needs well into 2028.
Supplier Engagement and Early Production Preparations
Critical suppliers for propulsion, electrical systems and flight control are engaged. Some long-lead components and tooling (doors, propellers, wing tooling, folding 4‑blade propeller mechanism) are already in manufacture; CDR work advancing to kick-start prototype production.
Disciplined Cost Profile and R&D Investment
2025 R&D spend was $195 million (Q4 R&D $59 million, ≈30.3% of full-year R&D). SG&A for full year $31 million. Operations cash consumption for 2025 reported at $175 million (or $196 million if adjusted for slipped invoices), near the low end of prior guidance.
Production Scalability Plan
Modular industrialization approach at Taubaté with an initial module capacity of 120 aircraft/year scalable to 480/year before additional facilities are required.
