Analysis · JOBY · Manufacturing
Joby Aviation has filed a preliminary prospectus supplement outlining its intent to raise an aggregate of $1 billion through a concurrent offering of common stock and convertible senior notes. While the specific pricing and number of shares for both offerings are not yet finalized, this represents a substantial capital raise for the company.
