Under the leadership of President and CEO Marc Parent since 2009, CAE has expanded its global training network and diversified its product portfolio. Notably, in 2020, CAE became the first Canadian aerospace company to achieve carbon neutrality.
In May 2024, CAE reported a revenue of C$1.13 billion for the fourth quarter. However, the company faced challenges in its defense segment, leading to financial impairments and restructuring efforts.
