Embraer sets new benchmark for Q3 earnings with 2026 all time high

Embraer achieved record third-quarter revenue totaling US$ 2.3 billion. Revenues grew 17 percent year-over-year (YoY), with all business units delivering solid performance. According to Embraer, ‘consistent results and an improved outlook lead the company to raise its revenue and cash flow guidance.’

The company’s operational efficiency was reflected across several indicators. Adjusted EBIT reached US$254.8 million, with a 10.9 percentmargin in Q3 2026, compared with 8.6 percent in the third quarter of 2025. Another highlight in the financial statements was adjusted free cash flow without Eve, which came in at US$ 627.7 million, supported by stronger operating performance and solid sales-related, pre-delivery payment inflows.

The consistency of the results achieved to date and the improved business outlook, including stronger contributions from the Services & Support and Defense & Security segments, led Embraer to raise its financial guidance for the year. The company now forecasts 2026 revenues of US$ 8.4 billion to US$ 8.6 billion range (up from US$ 8.2 to US $8.5 billion) and adjusted free cash flow without Eve of US$ 700 million or higher (up from US$ 400 million or higher).

Still on the third-quarter results, adjusted net income was US$73.6 million for the quarter, excluding US$ 2.5 million from extraordinary items related to Eve’s results. In the same period last year, this figure was US$ 84.3 million. The year-over-year decrease was mainly driven by higher net financial expenses and tax expenses during the period.
