MONTRÉAL, Sept. 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bombardier (TSX: BBD.B) is proud to announce it has been included in the 2023 TSX30 ranking presented by the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX). The prestigious list recognizes the 30 top performing stocks over a three-year period.

“Our financial performance over the past three years led to our achievement today, and we share our pride with all Bombardier employees whose innovative and tenacious spirit and hard work drive our business forward,” said Bart Demosky, Bombardier’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “We are delighted to be included in the influential TSX30 list as it is a confirmation of the value we create for our shareholders and for the Canadian economy.”

Over the last three years, Bombardier successfully redefined its core business and focused its activities on designing, manufacturing and servicing industry-leading business jets. In doing so, Bombardier laid the foundations for a stronger and more predictable business and cemented its leadership position within the industry. As part of its commitment to excellence and innovation, the company continuously evolves its industry-leading portfolio of business jets and strategically expands its global footprint, notably through a reinforced aftermarket offering. Bombardier also leads the way in sustainable aviation and takes concrete steps to manufacture and service aircraft with the smallest possible environmental impact, as demonstrated by tangible initiatives such as the EcoJet research program, launched in 2022, or by the company’s commitment to cover all its flight operations with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), using the Book and Claim system, from 2023 onwards.

“We congratulate Bombardier on its ranking on the 2023 TSX30. Bombardier has shown remarkable resilience in recent years, and this ranking is a testament to its ability to evolve and pivot amid challenging circumstances,” said Loui Anastasopoulos, CEO, Toronto Stock Exchange. “We are proud to celebrate the tremendous success of all the TSX30 companies.”
