Leonardo found that both its commercial helicopter sales and customer support business remained strong in 2023.

Leonardo helicopter deliveries jumped by 36 units to 185 in 2023; however, order intake ebbed from a strong 2022 that had included a sale to the Polish Ministry of Defense for 32 AW149s.

Releasing preliminary results yesterday afternoon, Leonardo reported that revenues for its helicopters division in 2023 reached €4.725 billion ($5.12 billion) last year, a nearly 4 percent improvement from the €4.547 billion ($4.927 billion) in 2022. Leonardo scaled up its deliveries as it was able to "navigate around the supply chain," said CFO Alessandra Genco. At the same time, orders dipped by 9 percent to €5.513 billion on the year in the helicopters unit, compared with 2022’s € 6.06 billion that had the Polish Ministry order as an anchor. Backlog at the end of the year stood at €14.4 billion.
