- Commercial aircraft deliveries reached 547 in the first nine months.
- Third-quarter adjusted EBIT fell 9.00 percent to EUR 1.77 billion.
- Net cash stood at EUR 7.04 billion at September 30, 2026, versus EUR 12.17 billion at year-end 2025.
Airbus (ISIN NL0000235190) delivered 547 commercial aircraft in the first nine months of 2026 and retained its 870-aircraft annual target. The results add a sharper execution test for Airbus stock because 323 aircraft now have to be delivered in the final three months. The company reported the figures on October 28, 2026 in its Airbus nine-month results release.
Growth meets a weaker quarter
Airbus revenue increased 7.00 percent year over year to EUR 50.65 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Adjusted EBIT rose 8.00 percent to EUR 4.50 billion, while net income advanced 36.00 percent to EUR 3.59 billion.
The quarterly picture was less supportive. Third-quarter revenue fell 2.00 percent to EUR 17.47 billion, and adjusted EBIT declined 9.00 percent to EUR 1.77 billion. Airbus attributed the pressure to lower commercial-aircraft deliveries, a less favorable mix and the integration of former Spirit AeroSystems work packages.
Why the final quarter matters
The unchanged outlook now depends heavily on delivery execution. Airbus still targets adjusted EBIT of EUR 7.50 billion and free cash flow before customer financing of EUR 4.50 billion for 2026, while nine-month free cash flow before customer financing was minus EUR 1.27 billion because of inventory buildup.
Demand remains a counterweight to the production strain. Net commercial-aircraft orders reached 1,105 in the first nine months, compared with 514 a year earlier, and the commercial backlog stood at 9,310 aircraft at September 30, 2026.
