(Bloomberg) -Airbus’s delivered about 63 aircraft last month, about 18% less than during the same month a year ago, as a lack of engines on the top selling A320Neo model has hampered customers, people who are familiar with the case said. The world’s largest planemaker delivered about 370 aircraft in the first seven months of 2025, less than half of its annual goal. The July delivery figures are provisional and can change slightly, people warned and asked not to be identified, with confidential data. A spokeswoman for Airbus refused to comment on the July score before the official publication of figures next week. Deliveries are closely watched by investors, because that is when airlines pay most of the money for an aircraft order. This week, Airbus CEO Guillaume Fury said that although the company continued to maintain its full yearly guidance of about 820, the issues of the supply chain would raise most of the deliveries in the second half of the year. By comparison, Airbus delivered 77 Jets in July a year ago and at that time took seven months to 400. At the end of June, the company had 60 so-called gliders-new-built aircraft on the ground without engines, a number that wanted to eradicate it by the end of the year, Airbus Management said on a earnings call on Wednesday. Boeing Co. increased the production of his competitive 737 Max Jet and caught up with its European competitor. It was neck-and-neck with Airbus during the half-year point with 280 deliveries compared to 306 at the European Planemaker. The American planemaker worked to return his factories to a stable pace. It is also linked by a surplus of stock as a result of a strike at the end of 2024 and its decided earlier this year to delay production to address quality deficits after a through-shaped panel blew out of a 737 airplane.
