Safran’s third-quarter revenue increased 14.7% to EUR 9 billion, broadly matching consensus. Civil engine spare-parts sales grew 17% year over year. The group reaffirmed its 2026 operating profit and free cash flow guidance.
Safran participates in around 75% of the narrow-body engine market through CFM. The mature CFM56 fleet supports current aftermarket earnings, while the growing Leap fleet extends the profit pool for decades.
A prolonged Middle East disruption or weaker airline economics could reduce utilization and narrow maintenance workscopes, bringing aftermarket normalization forward.
