The Boeing Company [NYSE: BA] reported first-quarter revenue of $14.0 billion,
driven by lower defense volume and charges on fixed-price defense development
programs, partially offset by commercial services volume. GAAP loss per share
of ($2.06) and core loss per share (non-GAAP)* of ($2.75) also reflect $212
million of pre-tax charges for impacts of the war in Ukraine (Table 1). Boeing
recorded operating cash flow of ($3.2) billion.
"While the first quarter of 2022 brought new challenges for our world, industry
and business, I am proud of our team and the steady progress we're making
toward our key commitments," said Dave Calhoun, Boeing president and chief
executive officer. "We increased 737 MAX production and deliveries and made
important progress on the 787 by submitting our certification plan to the FAA.
Despite the pressures on our defense and commercial development programs, we
remain on track to generate positive cash flow for 2022, and we're focused on
our performance as we work through certification requirements and mature
several key programs to production. Leading with safety and quality, we're
taking the right actions to drive stability throughout our operations, deliver
on our commitments to customers and position Boeing for a sustainable future."

Cash and investments in marketable securities decreased to $12.3 billion,
compared to $16.2 billion at the beginning of the quarter, primarily driven by
operating cash outflows and debt repayment (Table 3). The company has access to
credit facilities of $14.7 billion which remain undrawn.
Total company backlog at quarter-end was $371 billion.
Segment Results
Commercial Airplanes
Table 4. Commercial Airplanes First Quarter
(Dollars in Millions) 2022 2021 Change
Commercial Airplanes Deliveries 95 77 23%
Revenues $4,161$4,269 (3)%
Loss from Operations ($859) ($856) NM
Operating Margin (20.6)% (20.1)% NM
Commercial Airplanes first-quarter revenue of $4.2 billion decreased slightly,
primarily due to timing of wide-body deliveries, partially offset by higher 737
deliveries (Table 4). Operating margin of (20.6)% also reflects abnormal costs
and period expenses, including charges for impacts of the war in Ukraine and
higher research and development expense.
Boeing has nearly completed the global safe return to service of the 737 MAX
and the fleet has flown more than one million total flight hours since late
2020. The 737 production rate continues to increase and is expected to increase
to 31 airplanes per month during the second quarter.
On the 787, the company has submitted the certification plan to the FAA. Rework
has been completed on the initial airplanes and the company continues to work
closely with the FAA on timing of resuming deliveries. The program is producing
at a very low rate and will continue to do so until deliveries resume, with an
expected gradual return to five per month over time. The company continues to
anticipate 787 abnormal costs of approximately $2 billion, with most being
incurred by the end of 2023, including $312 million recorded in the quarter.
During the quarter, the company launched the 777-8 Freighter with an order from
Qatar Airways. Delivery of the first 777-9 airplane is now expected in 2025,
which reflects an updated assessment of the time required to meet certification
requirements. To minimize inventory and the number of airplanes requiring
change incorporation, the 777-9 production rate ramp is being adjusted,
including a temporary pause through 2023. This will result in approximately
$1.5 billion of abnormal costs beginning in the second quarter of this year and
continuing until 777-9 production resumes. The 777 program is also leveraging
the adjustment to the 777-9 production rate ramp to add 777 Freighter capacity
starting in late 2023.
Commercial Airplanes delivered 95 airplanes during the quarter and backlog
included nearly 4,200 airplanes valued at $291 billion.
Defense, Space & Security
Table 5. Defense, Space & Security First Quarter
(Dollars in Millions) 2022 2021 Change
Revenues $5,483$7,185 (24)%
(Loss)/earnings from Operations ($929) $405 NM
Operating Margin (16.9)% 5.6% NM
Defense, Space & Security first-quarter revenue decreased to $5.5 billion and
first-quarter operating margin decreased to (16.9) percent, primarily driven by
lower volume and charges on fixed-price development programs, including VC-25B
and T-7A Red Hawk. The VC-25B program recorded a $660 million charge, primarily
driven by higher supplier costs, higher costs to finalize technical
requirements and schedule delays. The T-7A Red Hawk program recorded $367
million in charges, primarily driven by ongoing supplier negotiations impacted
by supply chain constraints, COVID-19 and inflationary pressures.
During the quarter, Defense, Space & Security captured an award for 6 MH-47G
Block II Chinook rotorcraft for U.S. Army Special Operations. Defense, Space &
Security completed mission profile flights on the SB>1 DEFIANT and completed
the 400th test flight on the T-7A Red Hawk. Also in the quarter, Defense, Space
& Security began build of the first P-8A for the Royal New Zealand Air Force
and delivered 41 aircraft.
Backlog at Defense, Space & Security was $60 billion, of which 33% percent
represents orders from customers outside the U.S.

Operating Margin 14.6% 11.8% 24%
Global Services first-quarter revenue increased to $4.3 billion and
first-quarter operating margin increased to 14.6 percent primarily driven by
higher commercial volume and favorable mix.
During the quarter, Global Services secured a fuel-saving digital solutions
contract for Etihad Airways' 787 fleet and was awarded a contract for KC-135
horizontal stabilizers from the U.S. Air Force. Global Services captured a 767
converted freighter order from Air Transport Services Group and also announced
plans to create additional capacity for 767 converted freighters.

Interest and debt expense ($630) ($679)
Effective tax rate 23.2% 1.9%
At quarter-end, Boeing Capital's net portfolio balance was $1.6 billion.
Earnings from operations at Boeing Capital decreased primarily due to a
provision for losses related to the war in Ukraine. The change in loss from
other unallocated items and eliminations was primarily due to decreased
share-based plan expense and deferred compensation expense as compared to the
first quarter 2021. The first quarter effective tax rate primarily reflects the
tax benefit of pretax losses and realizable R&D tax credits.
Non-GAAP Measures Disclosures
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP)
with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP financial information
presented excludes certain significant items that may not be indicative of, or
are unrelated to, results from our ongoing business operations. We believe that
these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional insight into the
company's ongoing business performance. These non-GAAP measures should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures, and
other companies may define such measures differently. We encourage investors to
review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety
and not to rely on any single financial measure. The following definitions are
provided:
Core Operating Earnings, Core Operating Margin and Core Earnings Per Share
Core operating earnings is defined as GAAP earnings from operations excluding
the FAS/CAS service cost adjustment. The FAS/CAS service cost adjustment
represents the difference between the Financial Accounting Standards (FAS)
pension and postretirement service costs calculated under GAAP and costs
allocated to the business segments. Core operating margin is defined as core
operating earnings expressed as a percentage of revenue. Core earnings per
share is defined as GAAP diluted earnings per share excluding the net earnings
per share impact of the FAS/CAS service cost adjustment and Non-operating
pension and postretirement expenses. Non-operating pension and postretirement
expenses represent the components of net periodic benefit costs other than
service cost. Pension costs, comprising service and prior service costs
computed in accordance with GAAP are allocated to Commercial Airplanes and BGS
businesses supporting commercial customers. Pension costs allocated to BDS and
BGS businesses supporting government customers are computed in accordance with
U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), which employ different
actuarial assumptions and accounting conventions than GAAP. CAS costs are
allocable to government contracts. Other postretirement benefit costs are
allocated to all business segments based on CAS, which is generally based on
benefits paid. Management uses core operating earnings, core operating margin
and core earnings per share for purposes of evaluating and forecasting
underlying business performance. Management believes these core earnings
measures provide investors additional insights into operational performance as
they exclude non-service pension and post-retirement costs, which primarily
represent costs driven by market factors and costs not allocable to government
contracts. A reconciliation between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided
on pages 13.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is GAAP operating cash flow reduced by capital expenditures
for property, plant and equipment. Management believes free cash flow provides
investors with an important perspective on the cash available for shareholders,
debt repayment, and acquisitions after making the capital investments required
to support ongoing business operations and long term value creation. Free cash
flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary
expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of
maturing debt. Management uses free cash flow as a measure to assess both
business performance and overall liquidity. Table 2 provides a reconciliation
of free cash flow to GAAP operating cash flow.
