Summary
Bridger Aerospace has leased its two newest Super Scoopers to Avincis for wildfire suppression in Portugal, marking its first revenue-generating operations in Europe. The aircraft are under contract through mid-October, providing a new revenue stream during a severe European wildfire season. This follows a challenging Q1 with a 46% revenue drop and significant cash burn, so the deal offers a timely boost. The agreement also strengthens Bridger's relationship with Avincis and demonstrates fleet versatility. The financial terms are undisclosed, but the deployment adds geographic diversification and could lead to further international contracts.
