电动垂直起降飞行器(eVTOL)制造商Archer Aviation(ACHR)今日盘中股价大跌16.37%,引发市场广泛关注。这一显著跌幅主要源于公司最新宣布的大规模直接股票发行计划。
据悉,Archer Aviation于近日宣布,将以每股10美元的价格发行8500万股注册直接发行股票,募集资金总额达8.5亿美元。这一发行价较公司股票最后收盘价折价约14.7%,显著稀释了现有股东的权益,引发了投资者对股权稀释的担忧。
尽管新的资本募集使公司的流动资金总额增至约20亿美元,但投资者对此举可能带来的股权稀释表示担忧。Archer Aviation表示,募集资金将用于支持商业能力的建设,包括基础设施和基于人工智能的航空软件平台开发。值得注意的是,这一融资举措发生在美国政府刚刚出台支持无人机和电动空中出租车发展政策的背景下,尽管公司在eVTOL领域的前景被看好,但这次大规模融资对短期股价造成了显著压力。
