EMBRAER DELIVERS 66 AIRCRAFT IN RECORD THIRD QUARTER

Deliveries rose 6% year-over-year to mark the company’s best third-quarter performance on record, taking its nine-month total to 175 aircraft.

Embraer delivered 66 aircraft in the third quarter of 2026, the best third-quarter delivery performance in the company’s history, up 2% quarter-over-quarter and 6% year-over-year. In the first nine months of the year, Embraer delivered a total of 175 aircraft, 14% more than the 153 delivered in the same period of 2025, which the company attributes to continued progress in its production levelling initiatives.

 

BY BUSINESS UNIT

 

Commercial Aviation delivered 22 aircraft in the quarter, comprising 11 E175s and 11 aircraft from the E2 family, up 10% both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year against 20 deliveries in each comparison period. Executive Aviation delivered 41 business jets, flat year-over-year, which Embraer says reflects two years of progress in levelling the concentration of deliveries toward the second half of the year. In Defence & Security, the company delivered one KC-390 Millennium multi-mission transport and two A-29 Super Tucanos, three aircraft in total compared with one in the same period last year.

 

Embraer continues to expect full-year 2026 deliveries of between 80 and 85 aircraft in Commercial Aviation, a midpoint up 6% year-over-year, and between 160 and 170 aircraft in Executive Aviation, also a midpoint up 6% year-over-year.
