Lilium has been in negotiations with both the German federal government and the state of Bavaria for an emergency capital infusion. The company had requested €50 million (approximately $54 million) in loans from the federal government, but its request was denied by German lawmakers. In a regulatory filing last week, Lilium stated that they had received information indicating that the parliamentary budget committee would not approve a guarantee for a proposed €100 million loan. This loan was to be issued by KfW, a German state-owned development bank. Despite this setback, Lilium continues to negotiate with Bavaria for a guarantee of at least €50 million.
