Embraer: Record Revenue Surge, Driven by Defense
The Brazilian aircraft manufacturer, the world's third‑largest behind Airbus and Boeing, announced record revenue of US$2.3 billion for the third quarter of 2026. Embraer therefore intends to raise its annual forecasts.
Strong orders. This is what the manufacturer Embraer recorded for the third quarter of 2026. This Tuesday, November 10, the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer announced a turnover of $2.3 billion for the third quarter of 2026, a record in the history of the group with an increase of 17% compared to the same period last year.
Embraer announces progress in its operating margin, with an EBIT of 10.9%, compared to 8.6% in the third quarter of 2025. On the other hand, the company's profits are down, going from $116.6 million to $71.1 million, a drop explained by the payment of bonuses to employees and by tax expenses. This therefore does not prevent Embraer from aiming for a slightly higher annual turnover than expected for 2026, now with a range between $8.4 and $8.6 billion (compared to $8.2 – 8.5 billion).
Embraer explains the increase in its turnover by a 22% jump in orders in the “defense and security” sector, boosted by better recognition of revenues linked to the KC-390. The figures for the last quarter should also be quite good taking into account the sale of six cargo planes to Greece on November 2. Embraer generally recognizes a 56% increase in turnover in this sector over one year.
The commercial aviation and business aviation sectors are also doing well with respective increases in turnover of 13% and 12%.
