MANAGEMENT

In a year marked by the progress in the 

confidence in the Company.

vaccination against the Covid-19 pandemic 

and the beginning of recovery of the global 

economy, in 2021 we kept our focus on 

the execution of our strategic plan, Fit For 

Growth, whose main goal is the company’s 

profitable growth. Thanks to great 

discipline and agility, we already showed a 

better financial performance in 2021 and 

Two factors were fundamental for the 

performance improvement last year: the 

short-term projects for efficiency gain and 

the long-term growth vision, with initiatives on 

innovation and ESG, such as Eve Air Mobility, 

a company created by Embraer to bring the 

urban air mobility market up to speed.

we are sure about the path of sustainable 

Regarding efficiency, we advanced 

growth for the upcoming years.

in important projects like inventory 

It is important to highlight that in 2021 we 

reached the guidance presented to the 

market last July, having even surpassed it 

in some indicators. We had an increase in 

revenue, a positive EBITDA, order backlog 

at pre-pandemic levels, and we exceeded 

the free cashflow goal. All this contributed 

to the appreciation of our shares in the 

market, strengthening the investors’ 

management, with an increase in inventory 

turnover and reduction of aircraft production 

cycle. On the innovation and strategic 

partnership fronts, we signed a definitive 

agreement to combine businesses between 

Eve and Zanite Acquisition Corp, which 

will lead to opening Eve’s capital, with 

stock being traded at the New York Stock 

Exchange (NYSE).

SINCE 2008, Embraer 
is a signatory and reaffirms its 
commitment to UN’s Global Compact. 
In 2021, we took a significant step 
towards the advancement of the 
practices oriented to environmental 
issues, social and corporate 
governance actions.

Last August we issued new ESG 
commitments and goals, which include 
reaching carbon neutrality in our operations 
until 2040, by using 100% energy from 
renewable sources and gradually increasing 
the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) 
in our own flights.

We are also working together with 
suppliers and all the industry to achieve 
zero net emissions aviation by 2050, 
developing the necessary products based 
on new sustainable technologies, such as 
electrical, hybrid, and hydrogen propulsion. 
As part of such initiatives, we conducted 
the first flight of our electric demonstrator 
aircraft and we launched a family of 
concept airplanes of low and zero emission, 
the Energia Family. It is comprised of four 
aircraft models, with one 100% electric, 
another with hybrid-electric propulsion, 

a third one hydrogen-driven and a fourth 
hybrid model with SAF and hydrogen.

Priority for the Company, safety of our 
products remains a continuous focus 
on the agenda of senior management, 
leaders, and collaborators. Our flight 
safety policy and other robust internal 
processes pervade the entire Company 
and encourage a permanent and rigorous 
commitment from our team during the 
development and maintenance of our 
aircraft, as well as in our service centers. 
We adopt a proactive, customer-focused 
approach throughout the product’s  
whole lifecycle.

In addition to the initiatives on efficiency, 
innovation and ESG, we are very well 
positioned to grow by means of the 
increase in sales of our current product 
portfolio across all segments we operate in.

In Commercial Aviation, flight resumption 
is increasing, especially regional ones, 
and there is still a large potential for 
expansion over the next five years. In 2021, 
we delivered 48 aircraft and we announced 
new commissions of the E2 family from 
important customers, such as Canadian 
Porter Airlines and Swiss Helvetic Airways, 
in addition to new orders of E175 for the 

North American market. We also had 
important advancements in markets with  
a strong expansion, such as Africa  
and Asia-Pacific.

The growth was even more significant in 
Executive Aviation, with strong demand 
and record sales. We delivered 93 executive 
jets in 2021 and registered the largest 
volume in sales in the recent years – for the 
North American flight-sharing company 
NetJets alone there were more than 100 
new Phenom 300 jets.

The Defense & Security segment, in turn, 
delivered 14 A-29 Super Tucano light 
attack aircraft. During the year, five KC-
390 Millennium were under production, 
including one for the Portuguese Air 
Force and another one for the Hungarian 
Air Force. The SABER M200 Vigilante 
radar was presented and delivered to 
the Brazilian Army to meet the needs of 
protection of the national territory.

In the Services & Support unit, we closed 
multi-annual agreements with Azul Linhas 
Aéreas and Republic Airways for the 
Embraer Collaborative Inventory Planning 
(ECIP) program. We also announced 
several contracts of Pool and maintenance 
services for air companies such as KLM 

Cityhopper, CommutAir, and Porter Airlines, 
including 11 new clients in the Pool Program 
and 12 renewals.

Lastly, for this year we will continue to be 
attentive to possible developments of the 
pandemic, and, at the same time, we will 
keep focus on the evolution of our strategic 
plan, speeding up Embraer’s growth and its 
profitability improvement.

The Board has been monitoring the 
development of the conflict between Russia 
and Ukraine and its potential impacts on 
the Company’s operations, its customers, 
and its suppliers.

Despite the challenges, we are very 
confident in our journey of evolution. We 
have a clear vision, a robust plan, and 
discipline in the execution, and, most 
importantly, a team that is united and very 
committed to the sustainable growth of our 
Company, towards higher flights.

LAUNCH OF ENERGIA FAMILY

In 2021 we announced a concept family of commercial aircraft of low 
and zero emission, comprised of four models of different ranges and 
number of seats, which incorporate new propulsion technologies: 
hybrid electric, 100% electric, hydrogen fuel cell and gas bi-fuel turbine 
(hydrogen or SAF/JetA).

This new product family strengthens Embraer’s commitment to the 
environment established with the aeronautical industry to reduce 
carbon emission to zero until 2050.

 FIRST FLIGHT OF THE ELECTRICAL DEMONSTRATOR

 NEW GENERATION TURBO-PROPLELLER

Embraer set an important historical milestone by conducting the 
first flight of a 100% electric-driven aircraft. The technological 
demonstration prototype uses the EMB 203 Ipanema’s platform, and 
it is an important tool to speed up knowledge in the aeronautical 
electrification area, which can be applied to future projects.

Embraer is moving forward in its proposal for the development of a new 
commercial turbo-propelled aircraft, focused on the development of 
the short-range market and with a capacity between 70 and 90 seats. 
The new generation aircraft will reduce operational costs by up to 15% 
and it will be up to 20% faster than the model currently in the market, 
offering more comfort to the passengers. The goal is for the project to 
be 100% compatible with sustainable aviation fuels and to facilitate its 
integration with future hydrogen-driven technologies.

Diversity & Inclusion

  EMBRACE:

The company continuously seeks to build diverse teams that are representative 
and value every person’s distinctiveness. In 2021, the appreciation of equality in 
the company was reinforced by several initiatives.

A global volunteering movement of Embraer’s collaborators which 
represents the minority groups of Women, Ethnicity, LGBTQIA+, and 
People with Disabilities, and fosters an agenda of diversity, inclusion, 
and equality across the company. At the end of 2021, EMBRACE had 
more than 600 members.

  GLOBAL MAPPING ON DIVERSITY, EQUALITY, 
AND INCLUSION

In order to increase understanding of diversity in the company  
and capture its collaborators’ perceptions, Embraer carried out an internal 
survey in its sites located in Brazil and the United States, whose results 
bring an important input for the company’s future actions. More than 
8,500 people participated in this first phase, which will be supplemented 
in 2022, with the questionnaire being applied to sites in Europe.

  TRAINING FOR MORE THAN 80% 
OF THE GLOBAL LEADERSHIP

Embraer promoted leadership awareness about Diversity, Equality,  
and Inclusion. Regarding collaborators’ awareness, weeks of 
celebration and reflection about the struggle of some minority groups 
were organized, encouraging the collaborators’ involvement in internal

OUR CONTRIBUTION DURING THE PANDEMIC

Embraer promoted a safe working 
environment, with strict protocols 
against Covid-19, awareness 
campaigns about prevention and 
vaccination initiatives, as well as 
important digital transformations to 
maintain efficiency of remote work.

Access to the company’s 
facilities remained restricted to 
ensure proper social distancing 
and minimize commuting, 

in accordance with WHO’s 
recommendations. This 
accelerated the studies on 
the “Future of Work” and the 
global trend, and digital tools 
were optimized and deployed 
to leverage communication and 
productivity, enabling roughly 
70% of the collaborators to carry 
out their activities remotely or in 

a hybrid fashion.

TO THE FUTURE

Considering the continuity of remote 
work, Embraer performed a global 
mapping of the teams’ expectations 
about the new models of work, created 
an allowance to support part of the 
costs of those who are in a home office, 
and offered all collaborators a series 
of training sessions dedicated to the 
themes of remote work and mental 
health, in addition to discussions on this 
subject directed to the leaders.

Externally, Embraer contributed to the 
hospital industry, mobilizing its supply 
chain to produce components, as 
well as supported the project for the 

development of exhausters to quickly 
convert conventional hospital beds 
into ICU ones. The company took part 
in efforts to donate equipment such 
as oximeters, an important resource 
for an early diagnosis of the virus, 
in collaboration with the campaign 
designed by the Brazilian Society of 
Infectiology (SBI, Sociedade Brasileira 
de Infectologia) and by Instituto 
Estáter. Furthermore, it provided the 
technical specifications so that clients 
from several segments could develop 
procedures for the transport of vaccines 
and aircraft cabin disinfection.

Awarded as the most innovative 
company in Brazil for the fifth time, 
Embraer is recognized for seeking 
increasingly intelligent and agile 
solutions for a sustainable future  
in aviation.

In 2021, around 51% of the company’s 
revenue came from innovations that took 
place over the last five years. That shows 
the strategic relevance of keeping an 
active innovation environment, on behalf 
of long-term competitivity.

At Embraer, innovation happens all the 
time and in dimensions transversal to 
the value chain: innovations in products, 
services, processes, new businesses, 
and entrepreneurial innovations.

Even with the pandemic, the investment 
in technological development and 
innovation was kept stable, at around 
6% of the annual income.

The company believes that 
innovation is essential for

because of that it created a board

   INVESTMENT IN STARTUPS 

Corporate Venture Capital (CVC), a 
corporate venture capital investment 
vehicle, is an approach that allows 
for investment in adjacent and 
transformational initiatives, in 
an agile way, with the leverage of 
external resources and sharing 
of risks. In 2014, we started the 
operation of Embraer’s first CVC 
fund, FIP Aeroespacial, bringing 
in three institutional investors in 
addition to Embraer, BNDES, FINEP 
and Desenvolve SP.

In 2018, Embraer entered the Silicon 
Valley-based Catapult Ventures 
fund, broadening the geographical 
reach of its investment operations in 

high technology and innovation. This 
way, FIP Aeroespacial and Catapult 
are linked to Embraer Ventures 
Fund, which orchestrates the CVC 
strategy at Embraer.

Embraer Ventures allows the 
company to strategically invest in 
minority participations in startups. 
An example is the consolidation of 
the cybersecurity strategy, which 
began with applications in startups 
by FIP Aeroespacial and culminated 
in Embraer’s majority investment in 
Tempest in 2020, today the largest 
Brazilian cybersecurity company, 
with customers in Brazil, Latin

 GREEN LIGHT:  

 INNOVA CHALLENGE:   

 STARTUP PROGRAM 

An entrepreneurship program that evaluates 
innovative proposals submitted voluntarily 
by collaborators and provides time, technical 
and business guidance and resources for 
them to carry out the idea until its technical 
and economic feasibility is proven. In 2021, 
48 innovative projects were simultaneously 
under development, including the FIP 
Aerospacial, created within the program.

Innova Challenge is a crowdsourcing initiative 
that encourages the development of ideas 
for solving problems and challenges in 
different departments of the company. In 
addition, it promotes cultural events such as 
“Innovation Day”, for sharing knowledge and 
innovation practices. In 2021, participants 
were challenged with two themes, one linked 
to sustainable technologies and the other to 
artificial intelligence.

It is an agile process for contracting services 
and plug & play solutions that aims to foster 
a culture of innovation among collaborators, 
who come into contact with new technologies 
in the startup ecosystem in search of efficient 
solutions. Taking into account the diversity 
and inclusion agenda, in 2021, Embraer hired a 
startup focused on supporting recruitment and

Embraer has conquered and remains a global leader in the 
segment of jets with up to 150 seats, proud to contribute to 
regional aviation’s history and advancement, as one of the 
leading players in this segment since the company’s inception.

In 2021, Embraer leveraged new opportunities and 
consolidated its position in important markets. The growing 
resumption of flights after the Covid-19 pandemic, especially 
the regional ones, created opportunities that the company 
is taking advantage of, with great expansion potential to be 
explored over the next five years.

Furthermore, Embraer and Pratt & Whitney work in 
partnership, joining their technical skills with multi-
disciplinary teams, to continuously improve the aircraft and 
engine efficiency, in addition to allowing full and efficient use 
of SAF (sustainable aviation fuel). Produced from sustainable 
raw materials, SAF can currently reduce CO2 emissions by up 
to 80% when compared to traditional aviation fossil fuel.
