Financial Plan:

Archon Aerospace is valued at $99.99 million, focusing on the development of a hyper-efficient luxury aircraft, currently at TRL 2 (Technology Concept and Application Formulated). We aim to progress to TRL 3 with initial experimental work. To fund prototype development, 9% equity is being offered. Our valuation is on par with other aerospace start ups and we feel we can compete against Boeing, with the lack of trust and respect for the airlines, a new option is vitally needed at this time.

Key Financials:

Total Project Cost: $9 million

Aircraft Efficiency: 14.4x more fuel-efficient than standard aircraft

Target Market: Private and commercial aviation with a focus on luxury travel

Cost Breakdown:

R&D: $500,000 (2 months)

Design: $500,000 (2 months)

Prototyping: $2 million (12 months)

Testing & Certification: $1 million (12 months)

Manufacturing Setup: $3 million (6-8 months)

Software Development: $500,000 (6-8 months)

Marketing & Branding: $500,000 (6 months)

Overheads & Contingencies: $1 million (Ongoing)

This lean budget ensures efficient use of funds while targeting a significant increase in valuation as we advance through the TRL stages and market readiness.

Revenue Model for Archon Aerospace:

Assumptions:

Planned Cost per B2N Light Unit: $2 million

Profit per Unit: $2 million

Total Sale Range: 50-150 units (governments, high-net-worth individuals)

Private Airline: Unmatched efficiency leading to increased profitability compared to competitors.

Revenue Breakdown:

B2N Unit Sales:

Low-end sales: 50 unit

Revenue per unit = $4 million (Cost + Profit)

Total Revenue = 50 units × $4 million = $200 million

Profit = 50 units × $2 million = $100 million

High-end sales: 150 units

Revenue per unit = $4 million

Total Revenue = 150 units × $4 million = $600 million

Profit = 150 units × $2 million = $300 million

Private Airline Revenue: Based on our survey airline passengers are willing to pay 600% more for a luxury option. We will capitalize on this profitability margin, as well as bid per seat app to maximize profits.

Flat fee for flights: Significantly lower operational costs due to hydrogen hybrid (battery) and solar power.

Flight Assumptions:

10 flights/day

8 passengers/flight

$50/passenger per 100 miles

Average distance: 200 miles

Daily revenue = 10 flights/day × 8 passengers/flight × $100 = $8,000/day

Annual revenue = $8,000/day × 365 days = $2.92 million/year (per aircraft)

Fleet of 10 B2N aircraft:

Total Annual Revenue = $2.92 million × 10 aircraft = $29.2 million/year

Operating cost: Estimated at $15 million/year for the fleet

Total Profit from Private Airline: $14.2 million/year

Total Potential Revenue and Profit:

Low-end Sales Scenario (50 units + Airline):

Revenue from B2N Sales: $200 million

Profit from B2N Sales: $100 million

Profit from Airline: $14.2 million

Total Profit (Year 1): $114.2 million

High-end Sales Scenario (150 units + Airline):

Revenue from B2N Sales: $600 million

Profit from B2N Sales: $300 million

Profit from Airline: $14.2 million

Total Profit (Year 1): $314.2 million

Conclusion:

Archon Aerospace, with its efficient B2N aircraft priced at $4 million and targeted for high-end sales, has the potential to generate between $114.2 million and $314.2 million in annual profits. Additionally, the private airline/cargo model could further amplify profitability, with unmatched operational efficiency due to the aircraft’s zero-pollution hydrogen hybrid (battery) and solar-powered design.

Expenses:

Aircraft development and fleet acquisition: Estimated at $2 million per aircraft, with a fleet goal of 10 aircraft initially.

Operating costs: Estimated at $1.5 million per aircraft annually for maintenance, repairs, and hydrogen/solar energy costs.

General operating expenses: Estimated at $5 million annually (salaries, marketing, insurance, etc.).

Profitability:

Total annual expenses: $20 million.

Expected annual revenue: $29.7 million.

Annual profit: $9.7 million in the initial years.

Conclusion:

Archon Aerospace is poised to lead the aviation industry into a new era of sustainability and efficiency. With 14.4 times more fuel efficiency than standard aircraft, we are providing a solution to one of the largest expenses in aviation—fuel. Our zero-pollution flying wing aircraft offers a combination of luxury, environmental responsibility, and operational cost savings, making it a highly attractive option for both airlines and private clients.
