Anwar holds discussions with Brazilian aerospace giant Embraer
RIO DE JANEIRO: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today held discussions with Brazilian aerospace company Embraer SA to discuss strategic investment opportunities in Malaysia. The prime minister, who met with Embraer president and chief executive Francisco Gomes Neto, emphasised the government's commitment to strengthening the aviation industry ecosystem through investor-friendly policies, local talent development, and high-impact technology partnerships. This is in line with the aspiration to make Malaysia a major aerospace hub, particularly in Asean, which has a highly-skilled workforce and an industry ecosystem which is robust and competitive. "Our discussions touched on the potential for Embraer to invest in Malaysia, including through collaborations with Malaysian airlines. "Malaysia also welcomes Embraer's participation in developing a maintenance, repair and overhaul centre, pilot training and supply chains, as well as low-carbon emission aircraft innovations, in line with the Madani Economy framework and the National Aerospace Master Plan 2030," said Anwar. He said he also appreciated Embraer's interest in strengthening cooperation with the defence sector through initiatives that can enhance the Malaysian armed forces' air mobility capabilities. The government, he said, was committed to ensuring that any form of cooperation would bring high-value jobs, the transfer of technology and inclusive economic growth for Malaysians. Anwar is in Brazil to attend the 17th BRICS Leaders Summit today and tomorrow. Malaysia's participation in the summit is as a BRICS partner nation and as Asean chair. Malaysia became a BRICS partner nation on Jan 1. Bilateral trade between Malaysia and Brazil grew by 14.6 per cent to RM20.35 billion in 2024, from RM17.43 the year before. This maintained Brazil's position as one of Malaysia's main trading partners in Latin America.

Embraer Wins $4B Scandinavian Airlines Order to Supply 55 E195-E2 Jets
Embraer S.A. ERJ recently secured a delivery order from Scandinavian Airlines ('SAS') to supply 45 of its E195-E2 aircraft, with the option to deliver 10 more such aircraft. The first jet deliveries are anticipated to begin in late 2027, with subsequent deliveries lasting around four years. The order's worth, excluding purchase rights, is around $4 billion. The aforementioned orders should boost Embraer's future revenue stream and bolster its profitability. Why E195-E2 Jets? Embraer's E195-E2, the largest aircraft in the E-Jet E2 family, achieves double-digit lower fuel consumption compared to the current-generation E-Jets. This must have encouraged SAS to add it to its existing fleet, as the carrier company seeks to improve its connectivity throughout Scandinavia and Europe. This jet offers seating for 120-146 passengers and features a flying range of 3,000 nautical miles (5,556 km). Such remarkable features must have been boosting the demand for the E195-E2 jets, as evidenced by the latest order and the company's delivery of an E195-E2 jet to Mexicana last month. This delivery was part of a larger 2024 deal to supply 10 E195-E2 aircraft to Mexico's state-owned carrier. Opportunities Ahead for ERJ Stock Rising air passenger traffic, backed by enhanced air travel among passengers and executives, along with the increasing demand for fuel-efficient and modern aircraft, is driving growth for commercial passenger jets. To this end, jet giant Airbus EADSY expects the world's passenger fleet to nearly double during the 2025-2044 period, with the demand for new commercial jets totaling 43,420 new aircraft. This demand trend should bode well for fuel-efficient jet makers like Embraer. Embraer's Commercial Aviation segment backlog at the end of the first quarter of 2025 was $10 billion, while that for executive jets amounted to $7.6 billion. Such a strong backlog not only reflects the consistent demand for ERJ's aircraft from commercial airlines, like the latest one, but also strengthens the company's revenue generation prospects. Prospects for Other Aerospace Stocks Other aerospace stocks that stand to benefit from the growing commercial aviation market are as follows: Airbus SE: It is one of the forerunners in the global commercial aircraft space. Its order backlog amounted to 8,726 commercial aircraft at the end of March 2025. Airbus has a long-term (three to five years) earnings growth rate of 4%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for EADSY's 2025 sales suggests a year-over-year improvement of 12.9%. The Boeing Company BA: It has been a premier manufacturer of commercial jetliners for decades. Its Commercial Airplanes segment had a backlog of $460.4 billion as of March 31, 2025. Boeing has a long-term earnings growth rate of 18.1%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for BA's 2025 sales suggests a year-over-year improvement of 25.6%. Textron Inc. TXT: Its Textron Aviation unit is a well-known designer of business jet brands like Cessna and Beechcraft. The segment's order backlog as of March 29, 2025 was $7.9 billion. Textron boasts a long-term earnings growth rate of 10%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for TXT's 2025 sales calls for a year-over-year improvement of 6.6%. ERJ Stock Price Movement In the past six months, Embraer shares have risen 59.4% compared with the industry 's growth of 22.6%. ERJ's Zacks Rank Embraer currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
