Safran raised 2026 recurring operating income guidance by EUR 300 million to EUR 6.4 billion-EUR 6.5 billion and free cash flow by EUR 300 million to EUR 4.7 billion-EUR 4.9 billion after civil engine spare parts grew 28%, Leap deliveries grew 41%, and group margin rose to 18.4% in the first half.
Safran participates in around 75% of the narrow-body engine market through CFM. The mature CFM56 fleet supports current aftermarket earnings, while the growing Leap fleet extends the profit pool for decades.
A prolonged Middle East disruption or weaker airline economics could reduce utilization and narrow maintenance workscopes, bringing aftermarket normalization forward.
