ATR expects 2025 to be another year of “stabilisation”, as tensions in the supply chain will remain at least during the first half of the year, said the manufacturer.
ATR's deliveries were in line with those from 2023, with 35 aircraft delivered, meeting guidance provided at the beginning of the year.
The company saw a 40% growth in orders during 2024, in comparison to the year prior. In total 56 ATR aircraft were ordered by airlines and lessors, with the manufacturer citing a “strong market demand” for its planes.
51 ATR 72 and five ATR 42 aircraft were ordered, which brings total backlog to over 150. In 2024, ATR stated that Asian carriers showed “significant engagement”, while seeing new interest from Canadian operators.
“In 2024, we delivered what we said we would,” commented Nathalie Tarnaud Laude, chief executive officer of ATR. “In 2024 we doubled down on our core proposition of efficient, affordable connections. Our results show how relevant our aircraft are to our operators.”
The manufacturer reported $1.2bn in revenues during the year and confirmed a book-to-bill well above one. ATR also recorded almost 100 transactions on the second-hand market.
