Eurocopter generated a record high annual turnover in 2011 as the company benefitted from long-term strategies of investing in innovation to keep its helicopter product line at the forefront, growing the international footprint, developing services businesses and optimizing internal operations. The deliveries of 503 rotary-wing aircraft in 2011, along with Eurocopter’s enhanced support and services activities, generated a turnover of €5.4bn representing a growth of 12.5% from the previous year, and marking the first time Eurocopter’s annual turnover has surpassed the €5bn volume. Deliveries included the 1,000th Dauphin, the 1,000th EC135 and the 100th EC225.
New helicopter orders also picked up last year, with the 457 net bookings representing a value of €4.7bn, compared with the 346 helicopters sold in 2010. The year’s business included initial firm orders for the new EC175; major bookings for the EC225, the continuation of orders for the UH-72A Lakota and the first large booking for Eurocopter’s enhanced EC145 T2 helicopter version.
