The analyst view puts the focus on execution before Airbus publishes its nine-month figures.

Three events set the context

On July 29, 2026, Airbus reported adjusted EBIT of EUR 2.7 billion for the first half of 2026, according to Airbus. On October 8, 2026, Airbus confirmed 72 September deliveries and 547 deliveries in the first nine months, an 8 percent increase from the comparable period, as reported by Reuters. On October 13, 2026, Barclays kept its Buy rating and EUR 260.00 target, according to Markets Insider.

What does 547 deliveries mean?

The September total improved the year-to-date delivery count to 547 aircraft, up 8 percent year over year, but the monthly order figure was 17 aircraft, according to Reuters. For investors, the combination of delivery growth and the pace of new orders provides a more useful operating signal than the share price alone. Airbus had reported adjusted EBIT of EUR 2.7 billion for the first half, giving the delivery data a financial benchmark before the next report.

Next reporting date
