Oklo stock tumbles as Financial Times scrutinizes valuation
Investing.com -- Archer Aviation Inc.’s battery-powered air taxis will likely not receive certification by the end of 2025, pushing passenger flights to 2026, according to a report from Bloomberg News, citing sources familiar with the matter.
Regulators in the United Arab Emirates had initially expected to authorize the air taxis this year, but the review process is taking longer than anticipated, several people close to the process said. These sources requested anonymity as they weren’t authorized to speak publicly about the matter.
Archer and its Abu Dhabi partners now plan to begin passenger flights next year, representing a shift from the company’s February statement when it targeted its first passenger flight "later this year."
The Palo Alto, California-based company’s timeline adjustment means its air taxi service debut will be delayed by several months from original projections.
