Strong Propulsion Segment Performance
Revenue in the propulsion segment reached EUR 7.5 billion in H1, up 17% year-over-year. Recurring operating income came at EUR 1.8 billion, representing a record 23.3% of sales. The performance was driven by civil aftermarket, spare part revenues up 21.6% in dollars, and start of margin recognition of LEAP-1A RPFH contracts.
Successful Acquisitions and Strategic Partnerships
Safran completed the acquisition of Collins actuation and flight control activities, a major milestone in their aircraft equipment strategy. New partnerships were announced with Bombardier, Diehl, Babcock, and Kongsberg, expanding market opportunities.
Defense Segment Growth
Strong export momentum for the Rafale, with a new contract for 26 Rafale for the India Navy. A significant defense budget increase by NATO members is expected to drive further growth. The commitment is to double revenue base in defense and space activities by 2030.
