EVE (NYSE:EVEX) released its earnings results on Thursday. The company reported ($0.16) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, beating analysts’ consensus estimates of ($0.18) by $0.02, FiscalAI reports.

Here are the key takeaways from EVE’s conference call:

• Eve completed 91% of the engineering prototype’s planned flight-test points and expects to attempt its first full transition flight before year-end. The six certification prototypes are scheduled to begin assembly early next year, with piloted prototype flights planned for the second half of 2027 and certification targeted for 2028.
• Eve ended the quarter with $471 million in total liquidity and said it expects this to fund operations through 2028 without new funding. Cost savings identified with Embraer total $100 million–$150 million, with about $50 million captured in 2026; full-year cash consumption is tracking toward the low end of its $225 million–$275 million guidance.
• The company signed a binding agreement with FlyBIS for two firm aircraft orders and options for 10 more, potentially worth $60 million. Eve said customer down payments begin at signing, while emphasizing that converting existing pre-orders into firm contracts is now a priority.
• Eve cited a pre-order backlog of approximately 2,500 aircraft, but acknowledged it has declined sequentially and includes early-stage commitments that may change or fall away. Management said the quality of orders and conversion to firm contracts matter more than the headline backlog.
