Airbus (ISIN NL0000235190) was trading at EUR 188.61 at Lang & Schwarz on October 12, 2026 at 8:59 a.m. CEST. RBC maintained a Buy rating and a EUR 250.00 price target in a report published on October 9, 2026, according to Markets Insider.
Three dated operating milestones
On April 30, 2026, Airbus reported first-quarter revenue of EUR 12.7 billion and net income of EUR 586.0 million, with revenue down 6.6 percent year over year, according to Simply Wall St. On July 29, 2026, Airbus reported adjusted EBIT of EUR 2.7 billion for the first half, per its investor-relations release.
The latest milestone came on October 8, 2026. Airbus confirmed 72 September deliveries, bringing its nine-month total to 547 aircraft, up 8 percent from the same period a year earlier, Reuters reported.
What does the delivery pace mean?
Airbus recorded 17 gross orders in September and had 1,105 net orders in the first nine months, while its full-year delivery target stands at 870 aircraft, Reuters said on October 8, 2026. The arithmetic leaves 323 deliveries for the final quarter, making production execution the central operating test for the remaining year.
The latest delivery figure was broadly stable against 73 aircraft in September 2025, but the nine-month total was 40 aircraft higher than a year earlier. That comparison points to improved cumulative output while also showing why the final quarter carries a large workload.
Analyst target and scheduled dates
RBC's EUR 250.00 target is higher than the current Lang & Schwarz quote, while the report retained its Buy rating. A separate October 9, 2026 analyst overview from Ideal Investisseur said CIC Market Solutions kept a Buy rating with a EUR 240.00 target, showing that published targets remain above the market quotation.
Airbus has scheduled its third-quarter pre-quarterly communication for October 14, 2026 and its nine-month 2026 earnings release analyst call for October 28, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. CET, according to the company's financial-results calendar.
