Embraer deliveries jumped by 47 percent in the second quarter, with both its executive jets and commercial aircraft shipments logging notable increases, the Brazilian manufacturer reported last week. Deliveries for the quarter ended June 30 reached 62, 38 of which were executive jets and 24 commercial aircraft. This compares with a total of 47 delivered in the second quarter of 2022, including 30 executive jets and 17 commercial aircraft.

With the spike in deliveries, the backlog ebbed—but only slightly—to $17.3 billion at the end of June. This compares with $17.4 billion at the end of March. During the most recent quarter, Embraer scored some significant deals, including from NetJets for up to 250 Praetor 500 jets. If all options are exercised, the deal would be valued at more than $5 billion with deliveries beginning in 2025.
