He promised

Around 820 new planes handed to airlines in 2025, with about 7 billion euros profit.

Guillaume Faury, CEO, 2019–, on 20 February 2025.

He got

793 planes, and 7.1 billion euros profit.

Stamp: Partly kept.

Why, says the company

A quality problem on the body panels of its best-selling plane forced a cut in December. Profit and cash held.

How bad

Near miss. 27 planes short of the first promise, after one cut. Score 0.0 → +10.0.

In the company’s own words

Airbus cut the delivery target in December 2025 after finding a quality issue on fuselage panels of its A320 family; profit and cash met the promise.
