Embraer reached an all-time high backlog of US$31.6 billion in Q4 2025 following a strong quarter of 91 deliveries across executive, commercial and defence programmes. The figure was up 21% from 75 in the same quarter last year and ahead of the 62 aircraft handed over in Q3.

For the full year, the OEM delivered 244 aircraft, an 18% increase on the 206 units recorded in 2024. Of this total, executive aviation accounted for 155 aircraft, its highest ever, meeting the top end of Embraer’s full-year guidance range of 145–155 aircraft.

The executive aviation division delivered 53 aircraft in Q4 2025, including five Phenom 100s, 23 Phenom 300s, 17 Praetor 500s and eight Praetor 600s. This represented a 20% increase compared to the 44 jets delivered in Q4 2024. The segment ended the year with a US$7.6 billion backlog, its highest ever, up 3% year-on-year and 4% quarter-on-quarter, and posted a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1x.

Q4 deliveries represented 34% of the company’s 2025 output, compared to a five-year average of 43%, showing the effectiveness of its production-levelling strategy.

Business jet deliveries grew more than 19% year-on-year, reinforcing Embraer’s positioning amid growing global demand. The company also advanced its environmental goals by completing its largest solar-energy project to date at its Melbourne, Florida customer centre.
