Embraer backlog reaches all-time high, executive jet revenues up 64%

Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer has published its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, indicating strong revenues from its executive aviation segments and a backlog valued at $29.7 billion.  

On August 5, 2025, Embraer said that its performance was “not materially impacted” by US tariffs, despite during a conference call Embraer CEO Francisco Gomes Neto telling listeners they were a “cause for concern”.  

Embraer recently escaped an increase from 10% to 50% in US import tariffs after US President Donald Trump carved out an exemption for aircraft and parts. 

The company reiterated guidance that it is on course to deliver between 77 and 85 commercial aircraft this year and between 145 and 155 executive aircraft.  

Total company revenues in 2025 are predicted to amount to between $7 and $7.5 billion and adjusted EBIT margin of between 7.5% and 8.3%.  

In respect to its second quarter results, Embraer posted revenues of $1.8 billion (record Q2 high), a 22% increase on the same period last year.  

Specifically, commercial aircraft revenues were $577 million (+4% higher YOY) and executive aviation totaled $549 million.  

Embraer explained that the 64% rise in executive aviation revenues resulted from “price discipline, higher volumes and better product mix”. 

Adjusted EBIT across the entire company reached $191.8 million with a +10.5% margin in the second quarter (+9.3% in 2Q24). 

Embraer delivered 61 aircraft during the second quarter of which 19 were commercial jets (10 E2s and nine E1s), 38 were executive jets (21 light and 17 medium) and four were defense related aircraft (A-29 Super Tucano). 

Embraer highlighted that the company’s backlog reached $29.7 billion in the second quarter surpassing the previous historical all-time high. The rise reflected the strong demand for both commercial and executive aircraft.  

In 2025 alone, Flexjet ordered $7 billion worth of Embraer executive jets and SkyWest Airlines purchased up to 110 Embraer E175s at the Paris Air Show.
