What to watch

Backlog growing faster than output. A commercial book-to-bill of 1.8 means Embraer is selling nearly two aircraft for every one it delivers.

E195-E2 milestone. The largest E-Jet passed 500 firm orders during the quarter.

Production efficiency in 2027. Management has pointed to 2027 for materially better production performance, consistent with flat delivery guidance but higher margin guidance.
