Embraer Hits High End of Bizjet Delivery Forecast

Embraer finished 2025 in strong fashion with its executive jet division handing over 155 aircraft for the year, its highest tally in 15 years and exceeding its previous year’s total by 25 deliveries. With that total, the Brazil-based OEM reached the high mark of its business jet delivery guidance issued early last year.

“Achieving the high end of our delivery guidance reflects disciplined execution and a relentless focus on profitable performance with strong margins,” Embraer Executive Jets president and CEO Michael Amalfitano told AIN.

In the fourth quarter, Embraer delivered 28 Phenom light jets and 25 Praetor midsize/super-midsize jets. While the airframer has instituted measures in an attempt to level off its production throughout the year, the 53 deliveries in the fourth quarter represent a third of its output for the year.

It handed over 86 Phenoms—including 72 Phenom 300s, now the most delivered aircraft in its class for 13 consecutive years—and 69 Praetors last year.

“While the Phenom 300E continued its dominance as the most-delivered light jet, we also saw significant growth in Praetor deliveries, underscoring the strength and versatility of our portfolio,” Amalfitano explained. “This momentum, supported by a book-to-bill ratio around 1:1, positions us for sustainable, profitable growth into 2026.”
