Embraer Faces Turbulence: Tariffs Threaten Aviation Giant's Revenue
SAO JOSE DOS CAMPOS, STATE OF SÃO PAULO, JUL 15 – Embraer CEO warns that proposed 50% U.S. tariffs could cause revenue losses comparable to COVID-19 and add nearly $9 million to production cost per aircraft, impacting supply chains.
- U.S. President Donald Trump plans to impose a 50% tariff on Brazilian imports starting August 1, threatening Embraer’s core sales in the U.S. market.
- This tariff stems from trade tensions linked to Trump’s criticism of criminal charges against former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro.
- Embraer CEO Francisco Gomes Neto warned the tariff could increase each plane’s cost by about $9 million, risking order cancellations and disrupting production.
- Gomes Neto described the tariff as a “near-embargo” that could destabilize Embraer’s manufacturing and supply chains, causing annual losses of roughly $358 million.
- On July 16, Brazil announced plans to engage in discussions aimed at overturning the tariff decision, emphasizing the very short timeframe before implementation, as stated by Vice President Geraldo Alckmin.
