Quarterly adjusted operating profit declined 9% to €1.768 billion. Net profit nevertheless rose 20% to €1.344 billion. The group delivered 196 commercial aircraft during the period, compared with 201 a year earlier.

Airbus still targets around 870 deliveries for the year. With 547 aircraft handed over by the end of September, around 323 remain to be delivered in the final quarter. This remains a company forecast, whose achievement depends on the pace of customer handovers.
