Eve Air Mobility Funding 2026: $230M Raised to Push eVTOL Certification
Eve Air Mobility has secured $230 million through a registered direct offering of 47.4 million shares, priced at $4.85 per share, marking a major milestone in the company's eve air mobility funding 2026 strategy. The raise is anchored by Embraer and BNDESPAR — the investment arm of Brazil's national development bank, BNDES — alongside additional institutional investors. According to SEC filings, proceeds are designated for development, certification and industrialization of the company's electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, with the offering expected to close by Aug. 15, 2025.
Beyond the aircraft itself, funding will support expansion of Eve's broader urban air mobility (UAM) ecosystem, including air traffic management software and support services. The capital injection provides a critical liquidity runway as Eve navigates the resource-intensive transition from prototyping to full-scale production — a stage that has challenged multiple eVTOL competitors globally. Eve is pursuing type certification simultaneously with ANAC, the FAA and EASA, leveraging Embraer's deep aerospace engineering and regulatory expertise.
In a concurrent move to broaden its investor base, Eve is implementing a dual listing in the U.S. and Brazil. The company has received approval to list Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs) on the B3 exchange under the ticker "EVEB31," priced at R$26.21 per BDR. The structure gives Eve access to both North American and Brazilian capital markets at a pivotal moment in the competitive global eVTOL race.
