Embraer Q1 2026 Aircraft Deliveries Surge 47% Driven by Executive Jet Demand

São Paulo, Brazil – Embraer delivered 44 aircraft in the first quarter of 2026, a 47% increase from 30 jets in Q1 2025, fueled by enhanced production stability and robust executive jet demand.

Commercial Aviation contributed 10 aircraft, up 43% year-over-year, including three E195-E2 jets, Embraer’s largest commercial model. Executive Aviation led growth with 29 deliveries, continuing momentum from 2025 when the segment hit 155 units, the upper end of its 145-155 guidance.

In 2025, Embraer achieved 244 total deliveries across segments, surpassing 206 from the prior year. Commercial Aviation met its 77-85 target with 78 jets, including 15 E195-E2s in Q4 alone. Q4 2025 saw 91 deliveries, with Executive Jets logging 53 units, highlighted by 23 Phenom 300s.

The Q1 2026 uptick follows 2025’s production leveling, with year-to-date 2025 commercial deliveries reaching 46 units by Q3, or 57% of annual guidance midpoint. Recent E195-E2 orders, such as Avelo Airlines’ firm commitment for 50 with options for 50 more starting 2027, underscore program strength.

Embraer targets 100 commercial deliveries by 2028, supported by backlog growth to $31.6 billion at 2025 year-end.
