Country to original expectations, Aero Vodochody will show profit in the amount of CZK 200 million in 2007. The original plan was to show profit from 2008. The total revenue should reach up to CZK 4.1 billion (year-to-year increase by 39%). However the 2006 revenue increased by 22% up to CZK 2.94 billion, mostly distributed for own products and services (97 %), Aero showed loss in the amount of CZK 964.3 million. The increase in the revenue was mainly influenced by a significant increase in the production volume of the Sikorsky Program and launching new military contracts, especially the L-59T overhauls. The
S-76C helicopter production had the decisive share in the export.
