Q1 turbulence but FY17 ready on the runway

Airbus’s Q117 margin was lower than expected, at 1.8% compared to market consensus of 2.5%, mainly due to weaker pricing of old aircraft and higher costs of production for new ones. The helicopter division also made an unexpected loss. However, management confirmed its FY17 guidance and is confident that the challenging production ramp-up is on track.
