Vertical Aerospace sécurise jusqu’à 850 M$ pour Valo AeroMorning 30 Mars, 2026 30 mars 2026 – Vertical Aerospace a annoncé avoir conclu un accord de principe pour un paquet de financement pouvant atteindre jusqu’à 850 millions de dollars afin de soutenir le développement et la certification de son eVTOL Valo jusqu’en 2027 et au‑delà. Le financement annoncé comprend plusieurs volets : · 50 M$ levés aujourd’hui via une émission d’actions. · 30 M$ supplémentaires attendus dans les prochaines semaines. · Jusqu’à 250 M$ en actions privilégiées convertibles via _Yorkville Advisors Global_. · Une ligne de crédit en actions jusqu’à 500 M$ sur 36 mois. · Mudrick Capital Management prolonge et restructure des dettes convertibles existantes. La société prévoit d’utiliser ces fonds pour : 1. Finaliser les essais de transition pilotée du prototype 2. Réaliser des démonstrations de vol publiques 3. Avancer la construction de sa chaine de fabrication au Royaume‑Uni 4. Lancer la production des premiers avions de certification Valo 5. Faire progresser les essais auprès des autorités (CAA, EASA, FAA). La finalisation des accords reste non contraignante jusqu’au 19 avril 2026, et il n’y a aucune garantie qu’ils soient conclus aux termes actuels. Vertical vise désormais une certification de type de l’eVTOL Valo en 2028. **Contexte financier et marché** Selon des articles financiers récents, Vertical Aerospace fait face à des défis de trésorerie importants : · Une perte d’exploitation de 127 M$ en 2025, inférieure aux attentes du marché. · Un niveau de cash relativement faible (≈ 93 M$ fin 2025) et des besoins de financements futurs élevés. · Le titre Vertical Aerospace est largement sous‑valorisé par rapport à ses concurrents majeurs. **Où se situe Valo par rapport à ses concurrents ?** **a – Joby Aviation – Leader en certification** Joby Aviation (NYSE: JOBY) est considéré comme l’un des plus avancés dans le processus de certification FAA pour son eVTOL à cinq places. * Joby a débuté les essais de son modèle de production et avance vers la Type Inspection Authorization (TIA), étape clé avant la certification finale pour l’exploitation commerciale. * Les médias spécialisés indiquent que Joby est généralement vu comme le plus proche d’obtenir une certification FAA complète, avec des opérations pilotes commerciales prévues dans certains marchés dès 2026. * Sur le plan financier, Joby se négocie également avec une capitalisation très supérieure à celle de Vertical. **Archer Aviation – Certifié Partiel & réseau opérationnel** Archer Aviation (NYSE: ACHR) développe l’eVTOL Midnight, avec une stratégie plus orientée vers la fabrication et la vente/lease plutôt que l’exploitation directe. * Archer a progressé dans la certification FAA mais se situe derrière Joby dans le processus pur de certification de type. * L’entreprise a toutefois déjà obtenu plusieurs certifications opérationnelles (Part 135 transport commercial, Part 145 maintenance, Part 141 formation pilote), plaçant Archer en bonne position pour monter un réseau de services une fois la certification de l’avion obtenue. * Son carnet de commandes est significatif, comprenant des accords de grande valeur. **Eve Air Mobility (Embraer) – Forte position commerciale mais timeline plus lointaine** Eve Air Mobility est la division eVTOL d’Embraer, avec une stratégie industrielle différente : * Eve a déjà présenté des prototypes et a effectué des étapes de développement avancé. * Elle bénéficie de contrats importants (plusieurs milliers d’unités commandées) et du soutien de l’avionneur Embraer, ce qui peut l’aider à réduire les risques réglementaires. * Les plans de certification et de mise en service sont généralement attendus autour de 2026‑2027, possiblement légèrement avant ou après Valo selon les succès des tests. **Comparatif rapide des principaux acteurs eVTOL en 2026** __ **Entreprise**| **Avancement certification**| **Stratégie commerciale**| **Soutien financier / industriel** ---|---|---|--- **Joby Aviation**| Plus avancé vers FAA type (viser 2026)| OEM + opérateur (Uber, Delta…)| Capitaux élevés & vétéran du secteur **Archer Aviation**| Moyen / certification en cours| OEM + réseau opérationnel (air taxi)| Backlog important / infrastructures **Eve Air Mobility (Embraer)**| Prototype testé, certification visée 2026‑27| OEM + vaste carnet commandes| Grand avionneur derrière **Vertical Aerospace (Valo)**| Plus tardif (objectif 2028)| OEM avec vols zéro émission| Financement ambitieux mais cash serré _(Basé sur sources disponibles au 30 mars 2026)_ **Conclusion** Aujourd’hui, le communiqué officiel daté du 30 mars 2026 confirme que Vertical Aerospace a sécurisé un financement potentiel de jusqu’à 850 M$ pour soutenir le développement et la certification de son eVTOL Valo, avec un objectif de certification en 2028. Cependant, Valo est généralement considéré comme moins avancé en certification que les produits de Joby et Archer, et probablement comparable à Eve selon la rapidité des tests à venir. Joby reste en tête pour être le premier à obtenir une certification FAA complète, tandis qu’Archer avance en parallèle avec une stratégie plus orientée vers l’exploitation.

ACHR vs. JOBY: Two Bets on the Same Sky Two leading eVTOL players are racing toward commercialization, but only one may deliver scalable urban air mobility.

Archer and Joby just got approval to test eVTOL flights in U.S. cities.
Big question: do they hit profitability before they run out of cash?
Feels like the real race isn’t just tech. It’s runway vs. burn.

Eve continues advancing its flight test campaign, with its engineering prototype having completed 35 flights and accumulated nearly 1.5 hours of total flight time since its first flight in December 2025. The aircraft has reached an altitude of 140 feet above ground level (AGL), equivalent to 43 meters, establishing new program milestones and demonstrating consistent flight behavior under the tested conditions, including maneuvers with simultaneous inputs across three axes.

 

Preliminary results indicate efficiency gains, with propulsion and battery performance above initial expectations, while noise levels remain within projections, significantly lower than those of conventional helicopters.

 

Flights conducted to date have focused on low-speed operations (up to 15 knots, approximately 28 km/h), enabling validation of control laws, rotor aerodynamic efficiency, thermal behavior and the propulsion model. Eve continues to advance its campaign, expanding the flight envelope and testing at higher speeds.

I get that you have to start slowly in testing a completely new aircraft design. But an average test flight duration of less than three minutes over the first 35 operations seems mighty low to me. 🤔
