Listen to the news

Archer Aviation (ACHR) just signed an agreement with ITA Airways, part of the Lufthansa Group, to build an all electric air taxi network in major Italian cities using its Midnight aircraft.

That ITA Airways deal has arrived alongside a sharp 1 day share price return of 14.73% to US$4.44. However, Archer Aviation still has a 30 day share price return that is down 4.93% and a 1 year total shareholder return that is down 45.72%, which points to short term momentum picking up after a difficult stretch for longer term holders.

The jump in Archer Aviation’s share price hints at a changing story, yet the business still trades after a long slide. Is this move about fundamentals catching up, or sentiment snapping back ahead of earnings and partnerships?

Most Popular Narrative: 78% Undervalued

On the numbers alone, Archer Aviation screens as heavily discounted, with the last close at $4.44 against a widely followed fair value of $20.04. That gap frames the entire debate around whether the current price reflects execution risk or an opportunity in a high-growth corner of aerospace.

Archer Aviation is positioned to be the first to scale in the trillion-dollar Urban Air Mobility (UAM) market. Unlike competitors struggling with "production hell", Archer has solved the manufacturing equation through its strategic partnership with Stellantis, which is funding and building Archer's high-volume factory in Georgia. With a robust order book (United Airlines) and a clear path to FAA certification for its "Midnight" aircraft in 2025/2026, the current valuation reflects "bankruptcy risk" rather than "commercial launch" potential.

See why 49 investors see Archer Aviation as 78% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of $20.04 (UNDERVALUED)

However, the Archer Aviation story still depends on successful FAA certification and on turning a US$6b order book into profitable production before cash burn bites harder.
