Embraer S.A.(ERJ - Free Report) recently clinched an agreement with Aernnova, a prominent supplier of aerostructure, involving sale of its Embraer Metálicas and Embraer Compósitos industrial units in Evora, Portugal to the latter. The deal boasts a value of $172 million.
What Will Embraer Gain?
The transaction, which is expected to reach completion in the first quarter of 2022, also includes a long-term supply clause per which Aernnova, after initiation of operations in both units, will supply required parts to Embraer for its aircraft.
The move is in sync with the objective to increase the production capabilities of both units as products from these industrial units play a vital role in Embraer aircraft. Further, with Aernnova’s excellence in manufacturing metallic structures for aircraft, Embraer aims to enhance its final products. This will eventually strengthen Embraer’s position in the global aircraft market.
Significance of Both Industrial Units
Evora’s 37,100 and 31,800-square meters of industrial units employ the most digitally advanced technology in the construction of both metallic and composite airframes. Both facilities excel in producing parts for wings, vertical and horizontal stabilizers for various well-renowned programs, such as Praetor 500 and Praetor 600 business jets and the multi-mission aircraft, KC-390 Millennium. After the sale, the industrial units will become Aernnova's largest production center in the world.

Amongst its remarkably strong client base, some of the aerospace majors who are already customers of Aernnova and stand to benefit through the deal are Airbus SE (EADSY - Free Report) , Boeing (BA - Free Report) and Textron (TXT - Free Report) .
For Airbus, Aernnova supplies metal parts for a series of its jets namely, A350 XWB, A220, A330, A320, A380 and Beluga XL.
