VLJ - Phenom/Mustang.... "Low cost"?

With what just happened to Ambeo, a question comes to mind... Are VLJs money makers at all?....

Blink, LEA, FlairJet (UK), Wijet (France), ByJets (CH/FR), etc... are advertising at 50% lower costs than conventional operators (2200€/hr all included). Are these companies operating VLJ (Mustangs/Phenom100/etc..) viable for this market's segment?

What are their business model considering such a restrictive range and seat configuration? Are these operators making any money at all?....
