Embraer closed Q2 2026 with a historic US$34.5 billion order backlog – the seventh straight quarterly record and a 7 % rise from the previous quarter, up 16 % year‑on‑year. The backlog is split among Commercial Aviation (US$15.1 bn), Executive Aviation (US$7.8 bn), Defence & Security (US$6.1 bn) and Services & Support (US$5.5 bn). Deliveries rose 7 % to 65 aircraft, keeping a 12‑month book‑to‑bill ratio of 1.8×, and the company projects total deliveries could reach 255 units by the end of 2026, up from 141 in 2021. The Phenom 300 continues to dominate light‑jet sales, while the C‑390 military cargo aircraft is attracting new international customers. President Francisco Gomes Neto said Embraer is comfortable with its current portfolio but is studying the option of a larger single‑aisle jet, a move that could intensify competition with Airbus and Boeing. The Economist highlighted Embraer’s agility and the short delivery times of its E‑2 family as key drivers of the rapid growth. In August 2026 Brazil’s development bank BNDES approved a financing package of up to R$3.7 bn under billion through its Exim Pós‑embarque Pós‑Embarque line, backed by export‑credit insurance from the Fundo de Garantia à Exportação. The funds support package supports Porter Airlines of Canada in acquiring up to 19 additional E195‑E2 jets, part of a firm 75‑jet Airlines’ order that has for 75 E195‑E2 jets – 54 already delivered 54 aircraft, – with the latest remaining 19 aircraft scheduled for delivery on 23 June 2026 from Embraer’s São José dos Campos plant. BNDES president Aloizio Mercadante said through 2030. It is the first direct BNDES financing helps maintain Embraer’s for Embraer aircraft to a Canadian carrier and is intended to sustain production levels and preserve jobs in Brazil’s aerospace sector. ABGF president Maíra Madrid noted the instrument aims to make Brazilian products more competitive internationally, and Porter Airlines CFO Rob Palmer emphasized the E2 fleet’s central role jobs in the airline’s rapid North‑American growth.
