Regional aircraft manufacturer ATR announced its 2024 results, reporting a significant increase in orders and successful deliveries despite ongoing supply chain challenges.
Orders for ATR aircraft rose by 40% compared to 2023, with a total of 56 aircraft ordered. This includes 51 ATR 72s and five ATR 42s, bringing the company’s backlog to over 150 aircraft. The company noted significant engagement from Asian carriers and renewed interest from Canadian operators.
The company met its delivery targets for the year, delivering 35 aircraft. “In 2024, we delivered what we said we would,” said Nathalie Tarnaud Laude, Chief Executive Officer of ATR.
“We maintained delivery rates, in tough conditions, while welcoming 16 new operators, selling 56 aircraft, offering value-added services and streamlining operations to enhance the competitiveness of our products and the profitability of our customers.”
ATR’s customer support and services also saw growth, rising by 15% to $480 million. The company delivered $1.2 billion in revenues and maintained a book-to-bill ratio well above 1.
Looking ahead, ATR anticipates 2025 to be another year of stabilisation as tensions in the supply chain remain at least during the first half of the year.
