American Utilicraft last month said it will spin off Utilicraft Aerospace Industries, a newly formed Nevada corporation, as part of an agreement with The Navajo Nation, which is investing $34 million in exchange for a 25-percent stake in the new company. The funds will be used for Phase I FAA certification for the FF-1080-300 freight feeder.

Upon completion of the transaction, American Utilicraft shareholders will receive one share of Utilicraft Aerospace Industries common stock for each share of the existing company. Under the new structure, non-management shareholders will own 24 percent of the new company, while Utilicraft president and CEO John Dupont and v-p and general manager Darby Boland will jointly own 51 percent of the company’s common shares.
