Net Sales, Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin
- ----------------------------------------------

The net sales for 3Q02 totaled R$ 1,976.2 million, or 0.3% higher than the 3Q01
net sales of R$ 1,970.6 million. Therefore cumulative sales in the first nine
months of 2002 totaled R$ 4,860.6 million, 10.2% lower than the R$ 5,413.7
million in the same period of 2001. Embraer's net sales in 3Q02 remained in line
with net sales in 3Q01, since despite the low number of jet deliveries in 3Q02
in comparison with 3Q01, sales in the defense market increased during 3Q02 from
R$102.2 million in 3Q01 to R$186.1 million in 3Q02. The increased sales in the
defense area were principally related with deliveries of aircraft for government
transport and the recognition of revenues derived from the "aerial surveillance
and reconnaissance" segment.

33 jets were delivered to the regional market in 3Q02, of which 18 ERJ 145 and
10 ERJ 140. In addition to the deliveries to the regional market, two Executive
Legacy aircraft were delivered, one to the corporate market and one to the
defense market. The first three aircraft for the Amazon Surveillance System -
SIVAM - were delivered to the defense market. 2 EMB 145 AEW&C and 1 EMB 145 RS
units were delivered. In 3Q01 a total of 41 jets and 1 EMB 120 were delivered.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The cost of goods sold (COGS) was R$ 1,000.4 million in 3Q02, or 9.1% below the
R$ 1,100.7 million recorded in the same quarter of the prior year. In 3Q02, the
gross margin was 49.4%, compared with 44.1% recorded in 3Q01.

The reduction in COGS was due to the slower rhythm of deliveries in 3Q02 in
relation to 3Q01. It was also affected by the accounting revision of expenses
related with technology and miscellaneous support, which up to 2001 were
classified as COGS but as from 1Q02 were classified as administrative expenses
(see "administrative and selling expenses")

The main reason for the increase in gross margin was the impact of the exchange
variation between the date of purchase of the components and raw materials,
generally imported and dollar-denominated, and the corresponding delivery date
of the aircraft. In 3Q02 the real devalued by 36.9% against the dollar, whilst
in 3Q01 the devaluation was 15.9%.

Administrative and Selling Expenses
- -----------------------------------

Administrative and selling expenses were R$ 294.6 million in 3Q02, 39.1% higher
than the R$ 211.8 million recorded in 3Q01.

Selling expenses increased by 17.7% from R$157.4 million in 3Q01 to R$185.2
million in the same period of 2002. This increase was a result of the increase
in product warranty from R$20.5 million in 3Q01 to R$33.5 million in 3Q02. This
increase was due to the devaluation of the real against the dollar, since the
expense is paid in dollars. A provision for incurred but not yet reported (IBNR)
losses for the financial guarantees provided by Embraer to its customers in the
amount of R$ 13.3 million are also included in this line item. (See "recent
events").

Administrative expenses in 3Q02 totaled R$109.4 million, corresponding to a
101.1% increase compared with R$54.4 million for the same period of the prior
year. The increase in administrative expenses is a consequence of revising the
classification of certain expenses that up to 2001 were included as the cost of
goods sold, and as from 1Q02 were classified as administrative expenses. In 3Q02
this revision represented an additional R$24.7 million, referring to expenses
related with information technology and various kinds of support. There was also
an increase in outsourced services from R$7.6 million in 3Q01 to R$17.0 million
in 3Q02. Other administrative expenses increased from R$1.9 million in 3Q01 to
R$18.1 million in 3Q02, principally as a result of the structuring expenses of
Embraer Aircraft Holding Inc. - EAH, created in January 2002.

Consolidated administrative and selling expenses include the expenses of
subsidiaries located abroad. In addition to the factors mentioned above, these
expenses were also affected by the currency devaluation of 45.8% when comparing
3Q01 with 3Q02.

Other Operating Income (Expenses), net
- --------------------------------------

Other net operating expenses were R$37.2 million in 3Q02, compared to an expense
of R$ 41.0 million in the same period of the prior year. Other operating income
increased from R$10.8 million to R$32.4 million. This increase was a result of
income obtained from insurance claims and reimbursement of expenses.
The increase in other operating income was offset by the increase in other
operating expenses from R$ 51.8 million in 3Q01 to R$69.6 million in 3Q02. This
increase was due to additional expenditure on preliminary development studies
for projects related with the new Embraer jet family and also an increase in
training and professional development expenses.

Profit-sharing
- --------------

The Profit-sharing Program is linked to the action plan and meeting operational
goals, in addition to dividends paid to Embraer shareholders. The provision of
R$16.6 million made in 3Q02 was based on the distribution of interest on
shareholders' equity during the period and is subject to the above-mentioned
criteria.

Income from Operations
- ----------------------

In 3Q02, the income from operations before financial income (expenses) including
employee profit sharing and equity in unconsolidated subsidiary was R$628.2
million,

[EMBRAER LOGO]                              Earnings Release - 3rd quarter 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.2% higher than the R$614.7 million in the equivalent period of 2001. As a
result, Embraer achieved operating margins of 31.8% in 3Q02 and 31.2% in 3Q01.

EBITDA
- ------

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization in 3Q02 were
R$675.9 million, representing a 34.2% margin on net sales compared with R$659.1
million for 3Q01 and an EBITDA margin of 33.4%.

The increase in the EBITDA margin in 3Q02 compared with the equivalent period of
the prior year is a consequence of the increased gross margin during the period.

Financial Income (Expenses), net
- --------------------------------

In 3Q02, Embraer's net financial income was R$52.3 million, without considering
the distribution of interest on shareholders' equity to company shareholders and
monetary and exchange variations, which were 12.7% lower than the income of
R$59.9 million obtained in 3Q01, principally as a result of financial
structuring expenses, which increased from R$0.1 million in 3Q01 to R$7.4
million in 3Q02. The increases in financial structuring expenses were
compensated by a reduction in interest and commissions on financing, which fell
from R$34.6 million in 3Q01 to R$26.8 million in 3Q02.

Net monetary and exchange variations increased from an expense of R$315.9
million in 3Q01 to an expense of R$465.2 million in the equivalent period of
2002. This result is due to a 36.9% devaluation in 3Q02 compared with a
devaluation of 15.9% in 3Q01.

Non-operating Income (Expense), net
- -----------------------------------

In 3Q02, net non-operating expenses totaled R$1.5 million compared with an
expense of R$23.0 million in 3Q01. This reduction occurred because in 3Q01
Embraer made a provision of R$18.9 million for the write-off of deferred charges
on investments made to develop and produce the tanks, fuel systems and landing
gear of the S-92 Helibus helicopter developed by Sikorsky.

Income Tax
- ----------

In 3Q02, the provision for income tax and social contribution, net of deferred
income tax, totaled R$24.6 million, compared with R$82.6 million registered in
the equivalent period of the prior year. This reduction occurred as a result of
recognizing a credit of R$59.5 million in 3Q02, due to the effect of the
currency devaluation on the balance of deferred income tax and social
contribution related with temporary differences.

Embraer has decided to swap its Japanese yen and US dollar denominated debt to
R$-related interbank interest rates (CDI). Therefore, out of the total foreign
currency indebtedness of R$2,025.3 million, 51.9% or R$ 1,050.3 million is
indexed in R$ (CDI). Considering the conversion of these debts into R$, of the
total company indebtedness of R$ 2,115.3 million, 46.1% or R$ 975.0 million
refers to foreign currency borrowing with a weighted average cost of 5.0% per
annum. The remaining R$ 1,140.3 million, equivalent to 53.9% of the total debt,
is financed in Brazilian currency at an average weighted interest rate of 15.5%
per annum, equivalent to 86.8% of the CDI.

Cash
- ----

Since the company has more than 97% of revenues denominated in US dollars and a
firm order backlog of US$9.6 billion, Embraer has a natural hedge for its
operations.

Of the total cash and cash equivalents balance of R$2,961.2 million, 68.0%
comprises investments in reais and the remaining 32.0% in foreign currency,
primarily in US dollars. The Embraer cash investment strategy is based on
prospects of future investments, which are mostly denominated in Reais.

The cash balance does not include the net balance of R$130.5 million for the net
hedge provision as of September 30, 2002.

Accounts Receivable and Inventories
- -----------------------------------

Total accounts receivable increased from R$567.5 million on June 30, 2002 to
R$1,052.7 million on September 30, 2002. This increase is due to the bridge
loans obtained to finance six aircraft delivered during the quarter.

Inventories increased from R$2,467.7 million on June 30 to R$2,767.8 million on
September 30. This increase was related with the development of the EMBRAER 170,
which currently has six prototypes carrying out the flight certification
campaign, in addition to the effect of the currency devaluation on raw materials
inventories at subsidiaries located abroad and new materials purchases made at a
higher exchange rate during the quarter.

total of options were 555 units resulting in a total of 1,544 aircraft ordered
since the initiation of the ERJ jet family program.

ERJ 135/140/145 Jet Family

The family of 37, 44 and 50 seat regional jets comprises the ERJ 135/140/145
models respectively. The commonality ratio, of approximately 96%, between
models, enables the same ground support equipment to be used by customers
operating the aircraft, as well as the same pilot certification and standardized
maintenance procedures, providing customers with significant operating and
maintenance efficiencies.

The extra long-range version of the highly successful ERJ 145 regional jet
family, ERJ 145 XR, was granted its certificate of airworthiness by the
CTA-Centro Tecnico Aeroespacial (Aerospace Technical Center) on September 3,
2002. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification for the aircraft was
granted on October 22, 2002, for US operation.

The ERJ 145 XR has 99% commonality of structure, parts and systems with the
other aircraft in the ERJ 145/135/140 family. It also features the latest
improvements introduced to the ERJ 145/135/140 family as a result of the
operational experience gained in more than four years of airline operations
worldwide. Enhanced performance capability of the ERJ 145 XR includes a 2,000
nautical mile range, maximum takeoff weight of 53,130 pounds, and improved, twin
Rolls-Royce AE3007A1E engines with an additional 7% of take-off thrust.

The launch customer of the ERJ 145 XR, ExpressJet Airlines (formerly Continental
Express), already received 8 aircraft immediately after certification.
ExpressJet will take delivery of the first 18 aircraft this year and will begin
service with the new model in early November. ExpressJet holds a total of 104
firm orders and 100 purchase options for the ERJ 145 XR. Currently the carrier
operates 30 ERJ 135 and 140 ERJ 145.

At the end of the 3rd quarter of 2002 the order backlog for the ERJ 135/140/145
family for the regional market totaled 877 firm orders, of which 587 have been
delivered, and 353 options. These amounts include cancellations from an African
customer, which occurred during this quarter.

The New Family of EMBRAER 170/190 Jets

The 70 seat capacity EMBRAER 170, and the 98 and 108 seat capacity EMBRAER 190
and 195 were launched in June of 1999. Also the 78 seat capacity EMBRAER 175 was
officially launched on October 29, 2001 during the rollout ceremony of the
EMBRAER 170.

Six pre-series EMBRAER 170 aircraft are taking part in an aggressive development
and certification program. The first EMBRAER 170 recorded its maiden flight on
February 19 of this year, only 32 months after the official launching of the
EMBRAER 170/190 program in June of 1999. Less than five months later another
four aircraft have made their maiden flights. The development and certification
program is being developed using six test aircraft and two structural test rigs.
Embraer envisions the certification of the aircraft by the end of 2Q03, followed
by delivery of the first aircraft to the launch customer SWISS, from
Switzerland.

Even before the maiden flight of the EMBRAER 170 prototype, Embraer had already
accumulated 112 firm orders and 202 purchase options for this new jet family,
ordered by important international airlines and leasing operators.

The Legacy is a corporate jet developed based on the successful ERJ 135 regional
jet platform. Launched on July 26, 2000 at the Farnborough Air Show in England,
the Legacy is available in executive, corporate and authority transport
versions. The Legacy received official certification from the CTA - Centro
Tecnico Aeroespacial (Aerospace Technical Center) on December 10, 2001, on July
5, 2002 from the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) and on August 23, 2002 from
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

During 3Q02, Embraer received two new firm orders for the Legacy from two US
customers.

The Corporate Aviation order backlog reached a total of 164 aircraft at
September 30, 2002, consisting of 73 firm orders and 91 options, of which 10
aircraft have been delivered.

On June 24, 2002 the Brazilian Civil Aviation Authority issued Supplemental Type
Certificates (STC) for the R-99A and R-99B aircraft manufactured by Embraer for
the Brazilian Air Force (FAB). Both models are part of the Amazon Surveillance
System (SIVAM) project.

One month after certification of these aircraft, Embraer delivered the first
three aircraft that will be part of the Sivam, to FAB. The aircraft, two EMB 145
SA (AEW&C - Airborne Early Warning and Control) and one EMB 145 RS (Remote
Sensing) models are part of a total order of eight aircraft to be delivered up
to the third quarter of 2003 for the SIVAM Program, of which five will be EMB
145 SA and three will be EMB 145 RS type.

The aircraft from Embraer are a fundamental part of the SIVAM Program that will
provide precision surveillance and monitoring of some 5.2 million square
kilometers of the Amazon. The EMB 145 SA, dubbed the R 99-A by FAB, will be
responsible for performing air surveillance missions and monitoring air traffic,
even aircraft flying at very low altitudes. It is equipped with the
state-of-the-art Ericsson Erieye Radar.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The EMB 145 RS, called the R 99-B by FAB, will perform data collection on the
ground characteristics and this information will benefit the areas of bio mass
analysis and exploitation, providing full monitoring of any ground and river
movement within the Amazon. Its sophisticated array of sensors, including a
modern SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar), Multi-Spectral Scanner and Forward
Looking Infra Red, allows for perfect and complete monitoring, even under the
dense vegetation of the forest.

In addition to the surveillance aircraft, SIVAM will also employ the ALX
turboprop, a lightweight training and attack aircraft. One of the advantages of
the new model, based on the Tucano, is that, even without its own radar system,
it can be monitored by the EMB 145 AEW&C and allows these turboprops to
intercept unauthorized aircraft. The FAB has already ordered 76 Super Tucano
aircraft, and has options to purchase an additional 33. Embraer will begin
delivery of the ALX to FAB at the end of 2003.

Please see new orders and Backlog - ERJ 135/140/145 Jet Family.

New ERJs to be Flown for Delta Connection on Florida Routes
- -----------------------------------------------------------

On October 22, 2002, Embraer delivered to Chautauqua Airlines the first ERJ 145
aircraft from a firm order of 22 jets (fifteen ERJ 135s and seven ERJ 145s)
ordered in June 2002. The event took place at Embraer's headquarters in Sao Jose
dos Campos, Brazil. This delivery was a result of the agreement between Delta
Air Lines and Chautauqua Airlines, in which Chautauqua will fly ERJs in Florida
under the Delta Connection brand.

Financial Support for Sales
- ---------------------------

According to existing sales contracts, Embraer may have to repurchase a number
of our aircraft. The price per aircraft of any required repurchase is less than
the original purchase price of the aircraft. However, in some cases, the price
per aircraft is higher than our current estimate of the market value of the
relevant aircraft type in future years (based on internal and external aircraft
valuations, including information developed from the sales of similar aircraft
in the secondary market). If we are required to repurchase all of the relevant
aircraft under our repurchase obligation, which covers the period from 2003 to
2007, we could be required to pay up to approximately US$500 million for these
aircraft. Based on our current estimates and these third-party appraisals, we
believe that we could sell most repurchased aircraft in the market for a price
at least equal to the repurchase price.

At September 30, 2002, approximately 4.2% of our firm orders for regional jets,
including aircraft that have already been delivered, were subject to trade-in
options. These options provide that the repurchase price can be applied to the
price of an upgraded model or any of our other aircraft. The repurchase price is
determined in the

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

manner discussed above for regional jets and as a percentage of original
purchase price for our corporate jets. Based on the Company's current estimates
and third-party appraisals, management believes that any potential aircraft
accepted under trade-in could be sold in the market without material gain or
loss.

The Company has also guaranteed directly or indirectly a minimum residual value
for some of its aircraft, including aircraft that have already been delivered.
These guarantees run in favor of certain customers or providers of financing to
customers. In accordance with the Company policy and based on third-party
appraisals, this guaranteed minimum residual value does not exceed the appraisal
value of each aircraft delivered on the date of sale. The value of the guarantee
typically ranges from 18% to 25% of the sales price in the 10th to 15th year
after the year of delivery. In light of the volatility the of the airline
industry and resulting impact on the credit risk of airlines and our current
estimate of future market value of aircraft, the Company recorded a provision of
R$ 13.3 million to cover its current estimated exposure of the financial
guarantees related to the aircraft delivered through September 30, 2002. The
Company may be required to add to this provision as we reassess our estimated
exposure on a quarterly basis.

Faced with the current economic climate in the airline industry and a
deterioration in the credit risks of airlines, Embraer has created two dedicated
and specialized teams: one to manage its exposure under these various repurchase
and guarantee obligations and the other to manage any repurchased aircraft and
provide financial assistance to potential buyers of these aircraft.

Each of these specialized teams will operate under newly created subsidiaries.
Embraer Spain Holding Co. SL - ESH was incorporated in Spain, which in turn
formed ECC Investment Switzerland, AG and ECC Leasing Co., Ltd. ECC Investment
