MD&A
Text added vs the prior filing · source: 10-Q · 2026-05-06
We believe one of the primary drivers for adoption of our aerial ridesharing service is the value proposition and time savings offered by aerial mobility relative to traditional ground-based transportation. Additional factors impacting the pace of adoption of our aerial ridesharing service may inclu…
We believe that the primary sources of competition for our service are ground-based mobility solutions, other eVTOL developers/operators and local/regional incumbent aircraft charter services. While we expect to be first to market with an eVTOL facilitated aerial ridesharing service, we expect this …
In December 2020, we became, to our knowledge, the first company to receive airworthiness approval for an eVTOL aircraft for a flight clearance from the USAF to conduct a government test. Our multi-year relationship with the DOD and other U.S. government agencies has provided us with a compelling op…
With growing USAF interest in hybrid powertrains and autonomy in aviation, we leveraged our existing aircraft platform to address these areas. In the summer of 2025, we participated in the USAF’s Resolute Force Pacific (“REFORPAC”) exercise, successfully demonstrating our Superpilot(TM) autonomous f…
Our primary business model is to serve as a vertically-integrated eVTOL transportation service provider. Present projections indicate that payback periods on aircraft will result in a viable business model over the long-term as production volumes scale and unit economics improve to support sufficien…

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, including in the Forward-Looking Statements, MD&A, and the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying notes, we have provided an additional risk factor below regarding uncertainties surrounding global trade policies …
Current and future litigation may have an adverse impact on our business.
We are currently involved in litigation, as described above in Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings.” Even if we ultimately prevail on the merits, litigation can be costly, time consuming, and can divert management’s attention from other priorities. If the counterparties to such litigation prevail on …
We currently have subsidiaries located outside of the United States and plans for international operations in the future, which could subject us to political, operational and regulatory challenges.

In addition, we currently have subsidiaries engaged in limited test manufacturing, R&D and other activities in foreign countr…

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
