What Is Eve Holding's Investment Narrative?

To own Eve Holding, you have to believe that eVTOLs will move from concept to certified, commercially viable aircraft and that Eve’s Embraer backing, ecosystem partnerships and capital access will be enough to get it there despite deep, ongoing losses. The new US$1.00 billion Beta Technologies motor deal strengthens the story around execution by locking in a key propulsion supplier ahead of the first test flights targeted for late 2025 or early 2026, and it modestly improves line of sight on the near term catalyst of a successful prototype program. At the same time, it does not change the biggest tensions in the thesis: zero revenue today, rising quarterly losses, the need for significant funding and potential further dilution, and a long road until planned service entry from 2027 onward.

But there is a funding risk here that investors should really understand. Eve Holding's share price has been on the slide but might be dropping deeper into value territory. Find out whether it's a bargain at this price.
