Has Airbus achieved its goals in 2022
Budrigannews.com – According to industry sources, Airbas does not exclude the possibility of reducing the target indicators, although about 66 airliners were delivered in November.
This allowed him to achieve an almost record target of 137 December to reach his goal in 2022. According to sources, the world’s largest aircraft manufacturer delivered about 563 aircraft this year, as well as 497 aircraft in January-October or 495 aircraft after two deliveries were suspended by Russian sanctions.
A representative of Aeroflot declined to comment on the internal audited assessment for November. According to sources, the late outbreak led to November being much higher than the initial expectation, but this did not dispel concerns about the 2022 target of “about 700”, when only a few days remained by the end of the year.
Before COVID-19 severely strained the supply chain, the previous record of 138 was set in 2019. An industry source said that the company was almost abandoning the key goal of generating revenue. Anonymous sources said: “They have a lot of problems.” In November, Airbus will announce new deliveries, which is also seen as an opportunity to update targets at the end of the year.
According to two sources, this was not completely ruled out, and at the end of the year, Airbus had a story of a positive surprise. On Tuesday, the executive director of the corporation, Guillot Faury, appeared to link any decisions on targets with the indicators of the last days of November last year.
She declined to comment directly when asked if Airbus would keep the 2022 target, but warned that supply chain conditions are “very complex” and that its picture will be clearer at the end of November. Jefferies analyst Hloy Lemari said in his note that monitoring of test flights and delivery showed that 65 flights occurred in the United States in November.
According to sources, even some very tight plans were disrupted due to the sharp volatile growth, which has already led to the transition of some buyers at the end of the year in 2023, since December has already begun. Airbus is also delaying some of the upcoming deliveries. Airbus in July spent the delivery plan for $ 720-700 due to a shortage of spare parts.
There are still various deficits or bottlenecks. When asked to briefly describe the current riskiness of the supply chain, chief operating officer Alberto Guterres told reporters: “I’m not worried about what I knew, but what might arise.” On Monday, Reuters reported preliminary external data for November, and industry sources suggested that achieving the revised targets would be more difficult. On Monday, Fori said that no improvement in the supply chain is expected in the next six months.
However, commercial director Christian Scherer told reporters last week that Airbus continues to see a strong increase in demand, and wide-body models are beginning to meet the demand of small jet aircraft, with a delay of about 18 months during this period.
