Joby Aviation, Inc. (JOBY) saw its stock price surge 5% in Thursday's intraday trading session, fueled by investor optimism after investment bank Needham assigned a "buy" rating to the electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft manufacturer.
Needham's bullish stance on Joby Aviation and its competitor Archer Aviation (ACHR) reflects the immense growth potential of the urban air mobility (UAM) sector. With both companies targeting Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification by 2026 and commercial operations by 2028, industry projections estimate that the UAM market could exceed $1 trillion by 2040.
While the stock appreciation signals investor confidence, Joby Aviation and its peers still face significant challenges, including high cash burn rates and the need for substantial additional funding to sustain operations. However, the company's market capitalization of $4.3 billion suggests a strong belief in its future growth prospects within the promising UAM sector.
