Q1 2026 earnings summary5 May, 2026

Executive summary

  • Achieved significant operational milestones, including selection for the White House-backed eIPP program across 11 states and high-profile eVTOL demonstration flights in New York City and San Francisco, enabling early deployment ahead of FAA type certification.

  • Demonstrated technical and operational maturity with successful flights at major airports and heliports, including the first point-to-point eVTOL flights in NYC and the first-ever eVTOL flight between an international airport and a downtown heliport.

  • Closed acquisition of Blade Urban Air Mobility, unlocking immediate market access in key urban corridors and driving Q1 2026 revenue growth.

  • Expanded infrastructure partnerships in key U.S. cities and internationally, including Dubai, and ramped up manufacturing with increased production shifts, leveraging Toyota Production System expertise.

  • Maintained a strong balance sheet and financial flexibility to support certification, manufacturing, and commercial launch.

Financial highlights

  • Ended Q1 2026 with $2.5 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, bolstered by $1.3 billion in net proceeds from equity and convertible offerings and Delta Air Lines warrant exercises.

  • Q1 revenue reached $24.2 million, primarily from Blade and engineering services, down $7 million sequentially due to the absence of one-time Japan demonstration revenue.

  • Q1 net loss was $109.95 million, a $12 million improvement from Q4, reflecting increased R&D and SG&A expenses but favorable non-cash changes in warrant and earnout share valuations and higher interest income.

  • Total Q1 operating expenses were $258 million, up $20 million from Q4 and 58% year-over-year, reflecting continued investment in certification, manufacturing, and commercial readiness.

  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $179 million in Q1, compared to $154 million loss in Q4.

Outlook and guidance

  • On track with first half 2026 cash use guidance of $340 million–$370 million, excluding the one-time Ohio facility purchase.

  • Full-year revenue guidance reaffirmed at $105 million–$115 million, with Blade expected to ramp seasonally into Q3.

  • Expects to begin initial operations in 2026, ahead of FAA type certification, leveraging eIPP partnerships and targeting first passenger flights.

  • Management expects continued losses and negative cash flows until commercial operations commence, but cash and investments are expected to cover requirements for at least the next twelve months.

  • Plans for joint demonstrations with Air Space Intelligence later in 2026 to integrate air taxis into the national airspace system.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
