Boeing stock tumbles on disappointing quarterly results

Autor: Financial Market
2 min

The Boeing Company reported third-quarter revenue of $16.0 billion, a loss per share of ($5.49) and core loss per share of ($6.18), reflecting higher commercial volume and losses on fixed-price defense development programs, pushing the stock price down 6% in today’s trading session.

Commercial Airplanes third-quarter revenue increased to $6.3 billion, driven by the resumption of 787 deliveries and higher 737 deliveries.

Operating margin of 10.3 percent also reflects lower abnormal costs as compared to the third quarter of 2021, partially offset by higher period expenses, including R&D expense.

The company also resumed 787 deliveries in late August, following comprehensive reviews to ensure airplanes meets the company’s highest standards. The program is producing at a low rate with an expected gradual return to five per month over time.

Since late 2020, the 737 MAX fleet has completed nearly 1 million revenue flights. During the quarter, the company secured net orders for 227 aircraft, including 167 737 airplanes, 27 767 airplanes, 18 777 airplanes, and 15 787 airplanes.

Commercial Airplanes delivered 112 airplanes during the quarter and backlog included over 4,300 airplanes valued at $307 billion.

We continue to make important strides in our turnaround and remain focused on our performance,” said Dave Calhoun, Boeing President and Chief Executive Officer.

We generated strong cash in the quarter and are on a solid path to achieving positive free cash flow for 2022. At the same time, revenue and earnings were significantly impacted by losses on our fixed-price defense development programs.

We’re squarely focused on maturing these programs, mitigating risks and delivering for our customers and their important missions.

We remain in a challenging environment and have more work ahead to drive stability, improve our performance and ensure we’re consistently delivering on our commitments. Despite the challenges, I’m proud of our team and the progress we’ve made to strengthen our company.

Operating cash flow improved to $3.2 billion in the quarter, reflecting higher commercial deliveries, favorable receipt timing, and a tax refund.

Defense, Space & Security third-quarter revenue decreased to $5.3 billion and third-quarter operating margin decreased to (52.7) percent, primarily due to $2.8 billion of losses on certain fixed-price development programs, driven by higher estimated manufacturing and supply chain costs, as well as technical challenges.

Defense, Space & Security delivered 34 aircraft and two satellites, including the first four MH-139A Grey Wolf helicopters to the U.S. Air Force. Also during the quarter, Defense, Space and Security opened the Advanced Composite Fabrication Center in Mesa, Arizona.

Backlog at Defense, Space & Security was $55 billion, of which 31 percent represents orders from customers outside the U.S.
