Embraer is trading 5.04% up at $77.80 in after-hours trading after Moody’s upgraded the company to Baa2 from Baa3 on September 14, 2026.

  • The upgrade cited stronger leverage, recovering operating margins, conservative financial policies, liquidity, and a $34.5 billion backlog.
  • The broader market was weaker on September 15, making broad risk-on sentiment an unlikely explanation.
  • The rating announcement preceded the September 15 after-hours move; no new earnings release or late September 15 company announcement was identified.
