Archer Aviation Files Share Issue to Fund Air Taxi Ambitions
Archer Aviation (ACHR) has filed for a 1.52 million share offering to advance its Midnight air taxi program. The stock dipped 0.81% to $7.38 following the announcement, continuing its volatile 2025 trend.
The company is developing four-passenger electric vertical takeoff aircraft (eVTOLs) at facilities in Georgia and California. Test operations are underway in both the U.S. and UAE, with urban air mobility services targeting 20-mile urban hops.
Strategic priorities include establishing launch partnerships with urban transit authorities and developing vertiport infrastructure. The modest share issuance suggests disciplined capital allocation as Archer balances R&D spending against commercialization timelines.
