Bombardier (TSE:BBD.A) Issues Quarterly Earnings Results

Bombardier (TSE:BBD.A) announced its earnings results on Thursday. The company reported C$2.52 EPS for the quarter, FiscalAI reports. The firm had revenue of C$2.22 billion for the quarter.

Here are the key takeaways from Bombardier’s conference call:

• Bombardier generated $360 million of free cash flow in Q1 — its strongest first quarter in nearly two decades — and raised full‑year free cash flow guidance to over $1 billion, while adjusted EPS nearly tripled to $1.81.
• Backlog reached $20.3 billion (up $2.8 billion sequentially) with a unit book‑to‑bill of 3.6, driven by broad demand across platforms and strong interest in the Global 8000 and fleet customers.
• Balance sheet strength improved materially — net leverage is ~1.8x, liquidity is above $2 billion, and management repaid $750 million of debt in Q1 plus announced an early CAD 150 million redemption, supporting continued debt reduction and lower interest expense.
• A supplier “snag” delayed several deliveries this quarter, pressuring delivery timing and mix (and weighing on margin), though management says the issue is resolved and expects to catch up over subsequent quarters.
• Services growth remains a key offset and cash contributor, with aftermarket revenue up roughly 25%, helping smooth cash flow and partially mitigating manufacturing timing volatility.
