5 Big Investors Betting on Archer Aviation Stock After Q1

Archer Aviation (ACHR) is a California-based developer of the Midnight electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) air taxi. The company is pre-revenue today but has amassed a $6 billion order backlog and is targeting first commercial flights in the United Arab Emirates later this year.

The first quarter was a pivotal period for the company as manufacturing has moved from prototypes to completing the buildout of its commercial plant in Georgia. Archer also beat Wall Street analyst estimates, posting a loss of $0.17 per share vs. expectations of a $0.28 loss per share. Even before this pivot, shares surged in late 2024. Management quickly took advantage of that by issuing shares, thereby increasing cash on hand to over $1.03 billion.
