## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Archer Aviation Inc. reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **Price / sales: 14656.2×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 14656.2×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Price / book: 2.3×**. The shares trade at 2.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -15.0%** (5-yr avg -21.0%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Return on equity: -28.1%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -45.7%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -45.7%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
