2. Economic-Financial Performance
Continuous reductions in the production cycle and in the number of man-hours employed on
production, in addition to productivity gains and enhanced allocation of direct and indirect
resources, has enabled Embraer to increase income throughout the last 13 quarters.
Our comparative analysis of the principal economic and financial indicators for the equivalent
periods of 1999 and 2000 follows.

(*) Including employee profit sharing
Net sales for the 3rd quarter of 2000 were R$ 1,389.7 million, 32.6% higher than the same period
of 1999. With this quarterly revenue together with productivity gains, Embraer recorded a gross
margin of 33.9%, exceeding the figure for the same period of 1999 by 2.6%. As 98% of
Embraer’s revenues are related to exports and part of its production cost are based on import of
parts and equipments, and considering the productions cycle of an aircraft is 5.1 months, the
rd
valuation of the exchange rate of the US dollar by 2.4% during the 3 quarter of 2000 was
beneficial for the Company’s gross margin during the period.
Net Sales increased from R$ 2,415.8 million during the first nine months of 1999 to R$ 3,609.6 in
the same period of 2000, as increase of 49.4%. This increase is a result of the increased pace of
production, which enabled Embraer to deliver 116 aircraft of the ERJ 145/135 family during the
first nine months of this financial year, against deliveries of 60 ERJ 145, 8 ERJ 135 and 7 EMB
120 Brasília during the same period of the prior year. 44 aircraft of the same family were
delivered in the 3rd-quarter alone, a 46.7% increase in deliveries compared to the 3rd quarter of
1999, when 30 jets were delivered.
Net Sales by segment Nine months ended September 30,

Total 2.415.8 100 3,609.6 2.009.1 100
The increase in the pace of production also resulted in a 22.2% increase in sales of parts,
services and other, from R$ 201.2 million during the first nine months of 1999 to R$ 245.8 million
in the same period of 2000.

3. The decrease of 10.1% in net sales in the defense market, from R$ 154.0 million during the first
nine months of 1999, against the accumulated figure of R$ 138.4 million for 2000, is principally
due to the fact that some orders that the Company obtained in the latest years have not yet been
finalized with an agreement.
In the 3rd quarter of 2000, the company achieved an operating margin of 23.0% before financial
expenses and revenues and including profit sharing. This result is substantially the same
compared to the same period of 1999, which was 21.7%. During the first nine months of 2000,
the Company’s operating margin of 18.9%, practically at the same level as in 1999.
Consolidated accumulated net income for 2000 was R$ 398.6 million, 114.5% higher than for the
same period of 1999, when Embraer’s net income was R$ 185.8 million. In the 3rd quarter of
2000, the Company’s net income of R$ 188.2 million, improving on the 3rd quarter of 1999 by
116.2%.
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) in the 3rd quarter of
2000 were R$ 360.9 million, a 36.4% increase over the prior year. EBITDA for the first nine
months of 2000 was R$ 789.0 million, an increase of 40.6% over the same period of 1999.
Embraer has been increasing its financial performance and results over each quarter of 2000,
reaching a history record for the Company of US$ 2.0 billion in accumulated net sales during the
first nine months of 2000.

was tied to foreign currencies. At the end of the first nine months of 2000, the Company
recorded a net cash surplus of R$ 199.6 million. As of September 30, 2000 there was an
improvement in the Company’s liquidity as compared to the figures at June 30, 2000.
This improvement is a result of the conclusion of the Company’s global offering, with total
proceeds to the Company of R$ 439.8 million (equivalent to US$ 244.2 million). Of this amount,
R$ 17.7 million was paid for the underwriting commissions and posted as financial expenses.
These funds will be used by the Company for the capital expenditure requirements, principally
related with the development of the new ERJ 170/190 regional jet family.

At the same time, the Company signed a contract with Continental Express, a US company, for

Recent Developments
Order from the Belgian Ministry of Defense
On October 26, 2000, Embraer announced that it had won the tender to supply four aircraft to the
Belgian Ministry of Defense, of which two were 37-seat ERJ 135 and two were 50-seat ERJ
145 units. The contract value is around US$ 78 million and deliveries are scheduled to in April
2001. The aircraft will be used to transport government officials. The interior configuration of the
aircraft is yet to be defined by the Belgian government.
Belgian is not the first European country to use Embraer jets to transport government officials.
The combination of comfort, range and low cost of the Company’s aircraft has already attracted
orders from the Greek government for the same purpose, and has drawn the attention of various
other European countries.
6

7. This contract further consolidates Embraer's position in the international defense market.
Embraer’s increasing market share is also due to products introduced last year, such as the EMB
145 AEW&C early-warning aircraft, in addition to the EMB 145 MP maritime patrol version,
already chosen by the Greek and Mexican governments, respectively. In addition, the AMX-T,
which is a modernized version of the AMX, was selected by the Venezuelan government and the
ALX, a version of the Super Tucano, was contracted by the Brazilian Air Force.
Accounts Receivables
Between October and November 2000 Continental Express and BNDES –The Brazilian
Development Bank finalized the negotiations and executed an agreement related to the financing
of some Embraer regional jets purchased by Continental Express. As a result, Embraer received
a portion of the resources from the sale of such aircraft, which resources had been accounted in
June 2000 as long term receivables.
