BETA Technologies, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results

Company delivers record quarterly revenue, achieves landmark FAA market survey authorization and surpasses key year-end goals ahead of schedule.

SOUTH BURLINGTON, Vt. - November 3, 2026 - BETA Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BETA) ("BETA" or the "Company"), an aerospace and defense company, today announced its financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

"This was our strongest quarter of revenue since inception, and we're exceeding the targets we set at the beginning of 2026," said Kyle Clark, founder and chief executive officer of BETA. "We've now flown more than 250,000 nautical miles, advanced commercial operations through our eIPP launches, and secured a historic FAA authorization to fly prospective customers aboard our A250 electric VTOL aircraft. Each of these milestones builds on years of engineering and real-world operating experience. Our vertically integrated, stepwise approach allows us to take what we're learning in the field and apply it directly to improving our aircraft. We're demonstrating that our partnerships and strategy are working, and we are carrying that momentum into scaling production as we advance toward commercial certification."

Business Highlights

•Achieved Historic FAA Authorization: BETA's A250 became the first electric vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft to receive a Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") Special Airworthiness Certificate for market surveys, enabling demonstration flights with customers onboard ahead of type certification. The authorization builds on years of rigorous A250 flight testing and BETA's existing CX300 market survey authorization, broadening opportunities to demonstrate both aircraft in real-world operating environments.

•Delivered Record Revenue: Generated record quarterly revenue of $17.7 million, representing 98% year-over-year growth and exceeding the Company's guidance range. Revenue is entirely organic.

•Surpassed Year-End Flight Target: Exceeded 250,000 nautical miles flown across BETA's aircraft fleet ahead of schedule, building operational experience across a range of missions and environments. This milestone reflects the continued expansion of flight operations across both CTOL and VTOL aircraft, generating valuable real-world performance data to support ongoing development and certification efforts.

•Expanded Charging Network to 168 Sites: Increased the reach of BETA's open, interoperable charging infrastructure, supporting aircraft operations across the United States and providing the infrastructure for broader electric aviation adoption.

•Increased Aircraft Backlog: Increased commercial aircraft backlog to just over $4.0 billion, surpassing the Company's year-end target. The backlog represents 1,040 aircraft in firm and option orders supported by financial commitments.

•Broadened Electric Aviation Operations Across the United States: BETA has launched 6 of the 7 selections in the FAA's eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (eIPP).

Capital expenditures for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 were $28.8 million, compared to $13.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,343.1 million as of September 30, 2026, compared to $687.6 million as of September 30, 2025, reflecting successful private financings and the proceeds from our IPO.

Financial Outlook

BETA increases full year 2026 revenue guidance to be in the range of $52 million to $57 million and maintains full year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to be in the range of ($400) million to ($445) million.

BETA has not reconciled its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance because certain items that impact this non-GAAP metric are uncertain or out of BETA's control and cannot be reasonably predicted. In particular, stock-based compensation expense is impacted by the future fair market value of BETA's Class A common stock, BETA's future hiring needs, and other factors, all of which are difficult to predict, subject to frequent change, or not within BETA's control. The actual amount of these expenses during 2026 could materially affect BETA's future GAAP financial results. Accordingly, a reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP metric is not available without unreasonable effort.
