Joby Aviation designs and builds electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft to enable urban air mobility. Customers book rides through an app and the aircraft lift off vertically, fly between destinations, and land vertically as an aerial ridesharing service. The company emphasizes safety with extensive flight testing, NASA-verified low-noise performance, and FAA certification efforts, plus a strategic ANA partnership to deploy in Japan. Its goal is to provide a safe, clean, and efficient urban transport option that reduces travel times and environmental impact by using air taxis.

Jim Cramer has advised investors to avoid Joby Aviation during a Mad Money lightning round on 8 September, citing the company's significant financial losses. The electric aircraft manufacturer posted a GAAP net loss of $245.4 million in the second quarter and used $202 million of cash, driven by research and development spending. Despite the warning, Joby Aviation maintains strategic partnerships with Toyota and Delta Air Lines, alongside US defense contracts. The company is progressing through Federal Aviation Administration type certification. Hedge fund sentiment showed mixed signals, with 35 funds holding stakes in Q2 compared to 38 in the previous quarter. Marshall Wace increased its position by 7,065% to 8 million shares. Short interest stands at 17.13% of the float, reflecting scepticism about the company's cash-burn timeline.
Joby Aviation filed a prospectus supplement covering up to 2.42 million shares for potential resale by Strata Critical Inc. The company will not receive proceeds from any resale. Joby issued the shares to Strata Critical on 8 September after the acquired Blade Air Mobility operations met specific EBITDA milestones. These shares represent approximately 0.24% of Joby's 996.3 million shares outstanding. Separately, Joby's autonomous J208 aircraft has begun a month-long, 10-state coast-to-coast tour. The aircraft was displayed in Fort Worth at the launch of the White House-supported eVTOL and Advanced Air Mobility Integration Pilot Program. Joby shares reached a new 52-week low of $6.25 on Thursday, having declined 53.87% over the past 12 months.
Joby Aviation stock has fallen 49.2% over the past twelve months to about $6.84, trading at 57 times sales despite strong revenue growth from its Blade passenger flight business. The company reported $39 million in Q2 2026 revenue and raised full-year guidance to $115 million–$125 million. However, the stock continues declining because investors are focused on the company's electric air taxi manufacturing timeline rather than current revenue. Joby has five electric air taxis operational and plans to launch its first commercial routes in Dallas-Fort Worth in September 2026 under a White House-backed pilot programme. The company's operating margin stands at -759.2% with trailing losses of $0.9 billion. Joby holds $2.3 billion in cash and plans a $750 million share sale linked to its $500 million acquisition of Resonant Sciences, which generates over $100 million in revenue.

Writer Fuel: are Liminal Fiction finally about to get Flying cars? September 4, 2026 by scott Flying cars have long captured the imagination of science fiction writers, and in recent years, a host of tech startups have been rushing to make the dream a reality. Following a long period of research and development, more bullish voices in the industry say the launch of air taxi services is imminent - but significant technical, regulatory and economic hurdles may yet stymie their take off. U.S. companies Joby Aviation and Archer have both announced plans to launch air taxi services in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.), later this year, which would mark a major milestone in the technology's winding road to commercialization. Despite the enduring appeal of this new form of urban mobility and efforts by aviation authorities to lay the regulatory groundwork, however, experts say they're not yet ready for prime time. Concerns around safety, question marks about the financial viability of air taxi services, and the challenges involved in setting up the infrastructure and operational capacity to support a completely new transport network mean Liminal Fiction could still be waiting at least a decade for an airborne alternative to Uber. "Writer Fuel" is a series of cool real-world stories that might inspire your little writer heart. Check out its Writer Fuel page on the LimFic blog for more inspiration.
