SWOT
PESTLE

SWOT / TOWS analysis of Airbus is a framework to assess the factors that create an impact on the aerospace industry at large and wield its influence on Airbus. The SWOT analysis gives insights into the internal and external factors, namely, strength, weakness, opportunity, and threats of Airbus. Airbus owns a market share of 59.4% making it a global market leader in the aerospace industry. Airbus’s major competition is Boeing with a market share of 40.6%. Airbus receives a strong support from the Airbus group- its progenitor company, therefore it has successfully persisted despite stiff competition. Airbus uses the most innovative methods while developing a product and hence is an expert in entering into new markets and making a success out of it. Buoyed by strong order backlog and sharp rise in profits, Airbus shares have touched all-time high in 2018 .

Innovative products, successful acquisition and mergers, superb performance in all fields, Good ROI and excellent customer satisfaction are the major strengths of Airbus, creating a competitive advantage to the company over its peers and competitors. Airbus production cost is much higher than that of its rival- Boeing, this weakness has affected the share price of the Airbus group by approximately 26%. In 2017, Airbus did not perform well in the defense and space segment leading to a downfall in the revenue. Entering into a new market and becoming successful has been Airbus’s forte, this strength of the company opens the door for golden opportunities of expanding its territories, increasing sales and market share. Another opportunity lies in investing and employing advanced technology, which can ramp up production and deliver faster results.
