Embraer’s executive aviation division improved on its first-quarter deliveries, handing over 27 Phenoms and Praetors in the second quarter of the year for a total of 45 business jets in the first half of 2024. That represents a more than 18% increase over the first half of 2023.

While first-half shipments of Phenom 100 light jets remained static year over year at three, the Brazilian airframer ramped up the pace of its larger Phenom 300, delivering 28—six more than last year. Handovers of midsize Praetor 500 remained unchanged at six in the first half, while it delivered eight super-midsize Praetor 600s, one more than in the first six months of 2023.

The division ended the first half with a $4.6 billion backlog and a positive book-to-bill ratio. It has forecast total deliveries for the year in the range of 125 to 135 business jets.

On the commercial side, the OEM improved on its first-half 2023 output by two airliners, with deliveries of 11 E195E2s, four E190-E2s, and 11 E175s. It delivered its 1,800th E-Jet in May, and the backlog for the commercial division stands at 382 aircraft, worth $11.3 billion—a 2% increase over the first quarter.

In addition, the company’s services and support division reported a backlog of $3.1 billion. Altogether, Embraer's backlog totals more than $21 billion, a seven-year high.
