Published on 09/23/2026 at 19:50 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSEmbraer stock gained 2.60 percent to USD 77.02 at the September 21, 2026 close on the NYSE. The move follows a record second-quarter operating update, with revenue, backlog and the 2026 margin outlook all showing measurable progress.
Revenue reaches USD 2.2 billion
In Q2 2026, Embraer reported revenue of USD 2.2 billion, up 23 percent year over year, according to TTN World on September 1, 2026. Adjusted EBIT reached USD 296.9 million, producing a 13.3 percent margin.
The earnings mix matters because adjusted net income rose 38 percent year over year to USD 218.6 million. Embraer also delivered 65 aircraft in the quarter, its strongest second-quarter delivery figure in 16 years, according to the same September 1, 2026 report.
Backlog sets a USD 34.5 billion record
Embraer's firm order backlog reached USD 34.5 billion in Q2 2026, an increase of 16 percent from a year earlier. That figure gives the stock a concrete operating anchor beyond the daily price move, particularly as commercial, executive and defense aircraft demand develop at different speeds.
The company raised its 2026 adjusted EBIT margin guidance to 10.0 to 10.6 percent from 8.7 to 9.3 percent. Its adjusted free cash flow target excluding Eve also increased to at least USD 400 million from at least USD 200 million, according to TTN World.
