What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of ACHR's valuation, growth and risks.
A P/E cannot be read for Archer Aviation Inc. (ACHR): it is not meaningful, because the company lost money over the last 12 months. ACHR trades at 450.30 times its sales, 11,157.5% above the sector median of 4.0. The company has trailing earnings of -$1.09 a share.
The company is losing money, with a net margin of -11.00% and an operating margin of -5.00%. With revenue growth of 212.50%, ACHR is 200.8 percentage points faster than the sector median of 11.7%. It generates a return on equity of -44.47%, below the sector median of 17.8%. The balance sheet rounds out the picture, with debt-to-equity of 0.07.
EPS of -$0.22 versus the -$0.25 analysts expected made the August 10, 2026 report a beat of 12.00%. The market agreed: the stock rose 8.47% the following session.
Over its last 8 reports, ACHR topped the estimate 6 times; even so, 3 of those 6 beats were followed by a lower share price the next session. The largest of the earlier reactions came after the March 2, 2026 report, which beat the estimate by 17.65% while the stock fell 10.64%. Looking ahead, analysts expect EPS of -$0.958 this fiscal year and -$0.8073 the year after.
Day-to-day volatility is the first thing to plan around: ACHR has moved 3.59% on an average session. Until the price regains its moving averages, the trend works against holders. The price is 66.45% below its 52-week high of $12.13. Insiders sold $13.4M over the last 18 months and bought none on the open market, though sales of this kind are often planned in advance and say less than purchases would.

As of October 17, 2026, ACHR has beaten the analyst EPS estimate in 6 of its last 8 reported quarters and fell in the first trading session after 3 of those beats; its latest report, on August 10, 2026, came in 12.00% above the estimate and the stock moved +8.47% in the first session.
The first session is the first full trading day on the news: the report day itself for a report before the open, the next day for one after the close. Surprise is actual EPS against the consensus estimate.

No risks flagged.
- The two nearest levels matter most: the 20-day EMA at $4.80 sits above the price, and the 52-week low at $3.97 sits below it.
- A 14-day RSI of 31.1 places ACHR in the bearish zone, and the MACD line is negative. Readings above 70 or below 30 signal stretched momentum.
- In the first session after the August 10, 2026 report, the share price climbed 8.47%. Over the last 8 reports, ACHR has beaten estimates in 6 of them.
The trend is down because ACHR sits below both its 50-day average of $5.52 and its 200-day average of $6.03. Reclaiming the 50-day average would be the first sign of repair. The closest level above the price is the 20-day EMA, at $4.80.
The 52-week low at $3.97 is the next level below.
