About Beta Technologies, Inc.
About Beta Technologies, Inc.
Beta Technologies reported $35.6 million in revenue for fiscal 2025—up from $15.1 million in 2024—while carrying an unfilled civil aircraft backlog of 891 units valued at $3.47 billion, of which 289 are firm orders and 602 are options. The company's 188,000 square foot Final Assembly Facility in South Burlington, Vermont targets production of more than 300 aircraft annually at maturity, with site control and permits for expansion to over 355,000 square feet. End markets span cargo and logistics (UPS, Bristow), medical transport (United Therapeutics, Metro Aviation), defense (U.S. Military), and passenger operations.
Beta Technologies generates revenue through four streams: aircraft sales to commercial and military customers; replacement battery sales in the aftermarket, with an estimated 18-20 sets required over a 20-year aircraft lifecycle generating approximately $13 million in aftermarket revenue per aircraft at current pricing; propulsion system sales as a merchant supplier to other eVTOL manufacturers; and ground support equipment including Charge Cubes deployed at 56 airports and logistics hubs globally. The company signed a contract to supply up to $1 billion in pusher motors to EVE Air Mobility (Embraer-backed), and has delivered lift motors for EVE's proof-of-concept aircraft. Additional motor programs include a subcontract with General Dynamics Applied Physical Sciences for a DARPA advanced propulsion program for undersea vehicles. Battery cells are commercially sourced and integrated into proprietary 225 kWh pack assemblies. GE Aerospace made a $300 million equity investment in Beta Technologies to co-develop a hybrid electric turbogenerator for defense and civil applications.
Show full overview
Beta Technologies' entire commercial aircraft revenue model depends on FAA Type Certification, which no electric aircraft had received as of the filing date. The company targets FAA Part 33 certification for its H500A electric motor in the first half of 2026—supported partly by a Hartzell propeller receiving FAA Part 35 certification in July 2025—followed by Part 23 aircraft certification approximately 12 months after motor certification. A Special Federal Aviation Regulation for eVTOL aircraft (SFAR, adopted December 2024) adds an operational approval layer beyond type certification before operators may conduct commercial eVTOL flights, and the 10-K acknowledges that substantially changed FAA regulations may require aircraft redesign and cause scheduling delays.
