The company delivered 306 commercial aircraft, generated €29.6 billion in revenue, and confirmed its guidance for full-year 2025, targeting 820 deliveries and €7 billion in EBIT Adjusted.

• 494 gross orders and 402 net commercial aircraft orders placed in H1, raising the order backlog to 8,754 aircraft.

• Revenue increased 3% year-on-year to €29.6 billion, though commercial aircraft revenue dipped 2% due to fewer deliveries.

• EBIT Adjusted rose to €2.2 billion, up from €1.4 billion in H1 2024.

• Net income reached €1.5 billion with reported earnings per share of €1.93, up from €1.04 a year prior.
