SKYX Reports Record Revenue of $25.7M in Q-3 2026 Compared to $23.9M in Q-3 2025 and 11 Consecutive Quarters of Growth YoY
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
SKYX Platforms (NASDAQ: SKYX) reported record third-quarter 2026 revenue of $25.7 million, marking its 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth. Revenue rose 7.4% from a year earlier. Gross profit reached $8.1 million, up 11% from the second quarter, while gross margin increased to 31.4% from 28.9%. Operating cash use fell to $4.2 million from $5.0 million a year earlier. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $21 million at September 30.
SKYX completed its Deako merger on October 13, 2026, issuing 25 million common shares. The company expects annual cash expense savings exceeding $6 million. Three builder programs are expected to cover more than 210,000 units, with deliveries through 2027. The combined pipeline is estimated at approximately 4 million units at an expected average selling price of approximately $50 per product. Adjusted EBITDA loss narrowed to $2.9 million from $3.5 million in the second quarter.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses adjusted EBITDA, which adjusts GAAP net loss for interest, depreciation and amortization, share-based payments and other adjustments, as a supplemental measure to evaluate operating performance and inform financial and strategic planning. Adjusted EBITDA excludes significant expenses required by GAAP and is subject to inherent limitations. It should be considered in addition to GAAP net loss and cash flows used in operating activities. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
