MELBOURNE, Fla., Nov. 4, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Eve Holding, Inc. ("Eve") (NYSE: EVEX and
EVEXW) reports its Third Quarter 2024 Earnings Results.
Financial highlights
Eve Air Mobility is an aerospace company dedicated to the
development of an eVTOL (electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing)
aircraft and the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) ecosystem that includes
aircraft development, Customer Services and Vector, an Urban Air
Traffic Management (Urban ATM) system. Eve is pre-revenue; we do
not expect meaningful revenues, if any, during the development
phase of our aircraft, and we expect financial results to be mostly
related to costs associated with the program's development during
this period.
Eve reported a net loss of $35.8
million in 3Q24 versus $31.2
million in 3Q23. Net loss increased due to higher Research
& Development (R&D) – these are costs and activities
necessary to advance in the development of our suite of products
and solutions for the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) market, as well as
Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expenses. R&D
expenses were $32.4 million in 3Q24,
versus $28.6 million in 3Q23 and were
primarily driven by the Master Services Agreement (MSA) with
Embraer who performs several development activities for Eve. These
efforts continue to intensify with increasing maturity of the
development of our eVTOL. Moreover, engagement of our engineering
team continues high – after the roll-out of our engineering
prototype in July, who are now performing a series of system and
integration ground tests on the aircraft before its debut
flight.
In the meantime, SG&A increased to $8.4 million in 3Q24, from $5.0 million in 3Q23, primarily due to a
combination of higher outsourced services, payroll costs and
pre-operating industrialization costs associated with our first
eVTOL plant, in the city of Taubaté in Brazil. These increases were partly offset by
savings on Director & Officers insurance expenses after
renegotiating and lengthening terms with our provider and a c.8%
depreciation of the Brazilian Real (BRL) vs. the USD over the last
year. Most of SG&A expenses are incurred in Brazilian currency.
The growth in payroll expenses reflects mostly an increase in Eve's
headcount.
The increase in R&D and SG&A was partly offset by a
$4.0 million gain in 3Q24 related to
the fair value of derivatives (as private warrants were marked to
market), vs. a $0.9 million loss in
3Q23. Eve's total cash used by operations and capital expenditures
in 3Q24 was $34.0 million, vs.
$22.4 million in 3Q23. R&D
expenses associated with Eve's development were the main
contributors to the higher cash consumption during the quarter.
Eve's Cash, Cash Equivalents and Financial Investments totaled
$279.8 million at the end of 3Q24,
and liquidity reached $305 million,
including $25 million from the BNDES
R&D standby facility available. Subsequent to 3Q24, Eve secured
a new ~$90 million credit line with
the BNDES – Brazil's National
Development Bank, to support the necessary investments in our
Taubaté site, and a new $50 million
loan with Citibank to support the funding of R&D. The
additional funding will strengthen our Balance Sheet and support
our operations and program investments in the upcoming years.
