How Much Revenue Does Airbus Generate Yearly?

Airbus SE has announced its financial results for the first half (H1) of 2025, posting solid growth in earnings despite continued supply chain pressures and delayed aircraft deliveries.

The aerospace giant reported revenues of €29.6 billion, a 3% increase from the same period last year, while EBIT(Earnings Before Interest and Taxes) Adjusted surged 58% to €2.2 billion, reflecting improved performance in the Defence and Space division and a favorable financial environment. Net income jumped to €1.53 billion, up 85% year-on-year, with earnings per share of €1.93.

“The commercial performance in the first half of 2025 has been strong across the Company,” said Guillaume Faury, Airbus CEO. “While we face persistent engine supply issues, our financials reflect the progress of our transformation, particularly in Defence and Space.”



Aircraft Deliveries and Orders

Airbus delivered 306 commercial aircraft in H1 2025, slightly lower than the 323 units delivered in the same period last year. The breakdown included:

📎 41  - A220s

📎232 - A320 Family aircraft

📎12 - A330s

📎21 -  A350s

Gross commercial aircraft orders climbed to 494, with 402 net orders after cancellations, lifting the total backlog to 8,754 aircraft.

Airbus Helicopters delivered 138 units (+11% YoY) and booked 171 net orders, while Airbus Defence and Space secured €5.1 billion in orders despite a 16% year-on-year decline.


Segment Highlights

Commercial Aircraft: Revenue €20.8B (-2%), EBIT Adjusted €1.71B (-12%) due to lower deliveries.

Airbus Helicopters: Revenue €3.7B (+16%), EBIT Adjusted €249M (+8%), supported by higher deliveries and service growth.

Airbus Defence & Space: Revenue €5.8B (+17%), EBIT Adjusted €265M (recovered from a €-807M loss in 2024).

Cash Flow and Outlook

Airbus reported negative free cash flow before customer financing of €1.61 billion, driven by high inventory levels and dozens of completed aircraft awaiting engines. The net cash position fell to €7.0 billion from €11.8 billion at the end of 2024.

Despite these headwinds, Airbus maintains its 2025 guidance:

💢Around 820 commercial aircraft deliveries

💢EBIT Adjusted ~ €7.0 billion

💢Free Cash Flow before Customer Financing ~ €4.5 billion

The company continues to ramp up production across its aircraft programs, targeting 75 A320 Family jets per month by 2027, and 12 A350s per month by 2028, while the Spirit AeroSystems acquisition is expected to close in Q4 2025.

What we Know About Flight Turbulence

Image
Aircraft turbulence, defined as the irregular motion of air encountered during flight, is a common phenomenon in aviation. Often invisible to the naked eye, turbulence can arise from a variety of atmospheric conditions, including variations in air pressure, the presence of jet streams, airflow around mountainous terrain, the interaction of cold or warm weather fronts, and the dynamic environments associated with thunderstorms. The seemingly random occurrence of turbulence underscores the critical need for a comprehensive understanding of its characteristics and the development of effective safety measures. Although turbulence is considered a normal part of air travel and occurs with notable frequency, its potential to cause discomfort, operational disruptions, and, most importantly, injuries cannot be understated. The unpredictable jolts and shakes can significantly increase anxiety among passengers, especially those already apprehensive about flying. Furthermore, severe turbulence ca...
