Bulls say / Bears say
Safran’s Q1 2026 adjusted revenue rose 18.8% YoY to €8.62 billion, bolstered by a 60%+ surge in LEAP engine deliveries and a 29% increase in spare parts sales alongside a 43% rise in services, demonstrating strong aftermarket momentum (Reuters (sahmcapital.com)).
On July 2, 2026, Standard & Poor’s upgraded Safran’s outlook to Positive and reaffirmed its A- long-term issuer credit rating, reflecting enhanced financial resilience and deleveraging (Safran H1 2026 results (safran-group.com)).
On July 28, 2026, Safran raised its full-year 2026 operating profit guidance to €6.4–6.5 billion (from €6.1–6.2 billion) and its revenue growth target to mid-teens, driven by stronger-than-expected aftermarket performance and LEAP deliveries (Reuters (live.euronext.com)).
Safran incurred a €742 million negative currency impact in H1 2026 due to a stronger euro (average €/$ spot rate of 1.17 vs. 1.09 in H1 2025), highlighting material foreign exchange headwinds (Safran H1 2026 results (safran-group.com)).
Negotiations for Safran’s planned acquisition of Exail Technologies ended without agreement on July 3 2026, marking a setback in its strategic M&A efforts to bolster its underwater and robotics capabilities (Boursorama (boursorama.com)).
The June 8 2026 cancellation of the Franco-German Future Combat Air System (FCAS) fighter programme removes a key future engine development and production opportunity, undermining long-term propulsion revenue visibility (Defense News (defensenews.com)).
