EVTL Stock Forecast & Price Target

Vertical Aerospace Ltd is advancing its position in the eVTOL market with the upcoming demonstration of the all-electric VX4's full-transition flight, which significantly reduces technical risks associated with the aircraft’s capabilities. Furthermore, management has proactively increased their delivery expectations, forecasting a 17% rise in total aircraft deliveries by 2030 to 175 VX4s, coupled with a 13% boost in the annual manufacturing run-rate to 225 units. Anticipated annual deliveries for 2035 also reflect substantial growth projections, with an increase of 29% to 900 VX4s, indicating a strong potential for revenue growth and enhanced investor sentiment.

Vertical Aerospace Ltd has revised its cash breakeven timeline to 2029, indicating a prolonged path to profitability that may heighten investor concerns. The company faces significant delays in its flight test program and regulatory certifications, which could impede its ability to bring its flagship eVTOL aircraft, the VX4, to market in a timely manner. Additionally, the cancellation of aircraft orders from key customer prospects poses a substantial risk to Vertical's future revenue projections and growth potential.
