Earnings Call Summary
Boeing had a strong start to 2026 with 22.2 billion dollars in revenue, up 14 percent. The 737 program delivered 114 aircraft and stabilized at 42 per month after fixing wiring issues on 25 planes. The 787 was held back by seat certification delays but remains on track. Defense revenue grew 21 percent to 7.6 billion dollars, driven by higher demand from military conflicts. Free cash flow usage of 1.5 billion in the quarter was better than expected due to recovery and good timing.
Guidance Boeing expects to deliver 500 737s and 90 to 100 787s in 2026. The company guides for 1 billion to 3 billion dollars in free cash flow for the year. Production rates will increase to 47 per month on the 737 this summer and to 10 per month on the 787 later in the year.
Good report. The company beat and showed some forward improvement, with a few meaningful caveats.
