Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K is for the purpose of disclosing information relating to Boeing Capital Corporation (“BCC”) that was contained in the press release and Webcast of fourth quarter and full-year 2005 financial results of The Boeing Company (“Boeing”), dated February 1, 2006. The full text of Boeing’s press release is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

On February 1, 2006, Boeing publicly announced by means of a press release its fourth quarter and full-year 2005 financial results, some of which relate to BCC. The information relevant to BCC is as follows:

 

Boeing Capital Corporation

 

BCC’s year-end debt balance declined slightly to $6.2 billion from $6.4 billion at the end of the third quarter as strong operating cash flow eliminated the need for new financing.

 

BCC continued to support the operations of Boeing’s business units and reduce portfolio risk. Revenues for the fourth quarter grew 5 percent to $238 million on favorable dispositions and restructurings. Pre-tax income for the fourth quarter rose 14 percent to $40 million on higher revenues and lower asset impairment charges. For the year, pre-tax income grew 27 percent (Table 6).

BCC’s year-end portfolio balance was $9.2 billion, unchanged from the end of the third quarter and down $0.5 billion for the year as normal portfolio run-off and depreciation more than offset new business volume. BCC contributed $120 million in cash dividends to Boeing during the quarter and $338 million for the year. BCC recorded leverage of 5.0-to-1, as measured by the ratio of debt-to-equity.

 

BCC’s outlook is set forth in the table below:
