BETA Technologies

Beta Technologies showcased its fully electric ALIA CTOL CX300 at the 2025 Paris Air Show and released its first quarterly results, reporting $8.9 million in revenue (up from $3.1 million) and a $452 million net loss driven by convertible preferred‑stock funding. The company, backed by Amazon, aims to compete with Joby and Archer in the eVTOL market, seeking FAA eIPP certification for military and cargo missions while planning commercial operations by mid‑2025. Major moves include a $300 million hybrid‑generator partnership with GE Aerospace, Hartzell propeller certification, and a potential $1 billion ten‑year motor supply deal with Eve Air Mobility.

words.Beta Technologies’ shares rose 8% after Eve Air Mobility announced a potential $1 billion, ten‑year agreement for electric motors from the Vermont supplier. Eve, backed by Embraer, disclosed a backlog of about 2,800 eVTOLs and its stock jumped 12%. The deal secures a long‑term customer for Beta, projecting roughly $100 million in annual revenue and enabling economies of scale in a market expected to hit $50 billion by 2035. It also reduces Eve’s supply‑chain risk and supports its goal of 500 aircraft per year by 2028.
