CHICAGO, April 25, 2007 – The Boeing Company’s [NYSE: BA] first-quarter net earnings increased 27 percent to $877 million, or $1.13 per share (Table 1). Revenue grew 8 percent to $15.4 billion and earnings from operations rose 36 percent to $1.3 billion, yielding an 8.5 percent operating margin.

The higher first-quarter operating margin reflects the company’s exit from the Connexion by Boeing business and lower expense from compensation plan changes, both of which were implemented and disclosed during 2006. The margin also reflects a planned and previously disclosed increase in research and development spending, which is expected to moderate later this year. Given anticipated performance for the remainder of the year, including growth in airplane deliveries and expansion of business unit margins, Boeing reaffirmed its financial guidance for 2007 and 2008.

 

1

Boeing’s backlog at quarter-end reached a record $262 billion, up 23 percent in the last twelve months due to continued strength in commercial airplane orders and additional defense orders.

“These results are in line with our expectations for the quarter and represent solid progress toward the high goals we have for ourselves in 2007 and beyond,” said Boeing Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer Jim McNerney. “Our record backlog, increasing productivity, and the progress of our development programs have us on track to achieve our growth and profitability objectives.”

Non-GAAP measure. A complete definition and reconciliation of Boeing’s use of non-GAAP measures, identified by an asterisk (*), is found on page 8, “Non-GAAP Measure Disclosure.”

Operating cash flow was $0.7 billion (Table 2), reflecting higher net earnings offset by a planned $509 million pension contribution, planned increases in working capital, and the timing of receipts. Cash and investments in marketable securities totaled $8.1 billion at March 31, down from $9.3 billion at the end of 2006 (Table 3). Boeing repaid $0.8 billion of maturing Boeing Capital Corporation (BCC) debt, made planned investments in its core businesses, and contributed to its pension as described above. The BCC repayment reduced total debt by 8 percent.

The company spent $360 million repurchasing 4.0 million shares during the quarter, leaving $2.0 billion remaining under the current repurchase authorization.

Segment Results

Commercial Airplanes

Boeing Commercial Airplanes (BCA) first-quarter revenues increased 7 percent to $7.6 billion on an 8 percent increase in deliveries to 106 airplanes, as well as higher commercial aviation services revenue (Table 4). BCA delivered a higher proportion of single-aisle airplanes than in last year’s first quarter. Operating earnings were $706 million and operating margins were 9.3 percent. Margins in the latest quarter reflect higher operating leverage and productivity improvements offset by planned R&D spending that was $258 million higher than in the first quarter of 2006. R&D is forecast to decline in the second half of the year which, along with increased airplane deliveries, is expected to drive BCA margin expansion consistent with company guidance.

BCA booked 189 gross orders during the quarter. Its contractual backlog rose to a record $188 billion, increasing 42 percent in the last year to more than six times its 2006 revenues.

The 787 program has won 544 firm orders to date from 44 customers, the most ever achieved by a commercial jet program within three years of program launch. The program achieved important development milestones during the quarter, including delivery of large structural sections in preparation for final assembly beginning next month and the first flight of the second Dreamlifter freighter. The program continues to address pressures with respect to weight, schedule and supplier implementation as it moves into the very critical final assembly and software and systems integration phases. Rollout of the first airplane is scheduled in July, first flight is targeted for late August and entry into service is scheduled for May 2008. While risks inherent in the latter stages of major airplane development programs remain for the 787, Boeing continues to expect the 787 will be delivered on time and in accord with its contractual obligations.

Integrated Defense Systems

Boeing Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) revenues grew 7 percent during the quarter to $7.7 billion generating operating earnings of $784 million and an operating margin of 10.2 percent. IDS results reflect higher volume across all segments and productivity improvements, offset by a change in product mix and fewer benefits from contract closeouts compared to the year ago quarter.

Precision Engagement & Mobility Systems revenue grew 6 percent to $3.3 billion on higher deliveries from the F/A-18 and Chinook programs and increased volume on the P-8A Poseidon and F-22, partially offset by lower Apache revenues. Operating margin was 12.9 percent, which reflects the impact of aircraft delivery and product mix in the quarter, and the absence of favorable contract closeouts mentioned above.

Network & Space Systems achieved significant milestones on several key development programs such as Future Combat Systems and Ground-based Missile Defense (GMD). First-quarter revenues increased 4 percent to $2.9 billion on increased volume in satellites and GMD programs, which offset the expected loss of reported revenue from the recent formation of the United Launch Alliance (ULA) joint venture. Operating margin was 5.7 percent in the quarter, which included adjustments related to the ULA joint venture and revised cost estimates on satellite programs.

Support Systems again generated strong profits on its broad portfolio of services and logistics programs. Revenues for the quarter increased 17 percent to $1.6 billion while operating earnings increased to $200 million resulting in a 12.6 percent operating margin. Results reflect higher volume on integrated logistics programs, maintenance, modification & upgrades, and international support programs.

IDS’ backlog at quarter-end was $73.6 billion as progress continued on large multi-year contracts.

Boeing Capital Corporation

Boeing Capital Corporation (BCC) increased pre-tax earnings to $73 million on continued improvement in aircraft valuations, while revenues declined consistent with the portfolio (Table 6). BCC’s portfolio balance at the end of the first quarter was $7.9 billion, down from $8.0 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2006 and $9.0 billion a year ago on normal portfolio run-off, asset sales and depreciation.

BCC contributed $173 million in cash to the company (dividends and return of capital) during the quarter. BCC also repaid 14 percent of its outstanding debt during the quarter as $0.8 billion of long-term debt matured. As a result, BCC’s debt-to-equity ratio remained steady at 5.0-to-1.

Additional Information

The “Other” segment consists primarily of Boeing Engineering, Operations and Technology and the Connexion business (which was closed at the end of 2006), as well as certain results related to the consolidation of all business units. Other segment expense was $2 million in the first quarter, a significant improvement from a $61 million loss in the same period last year which included $56 million of expense from Connexion.

Total unallocated expense in the quarter decreased to $252 million from $570 million in the first quarter of 2006. These results reflect lower share-based plans and deferred compensation expense, and increased pension expense. Unallocated share-based-plans expense was $36 million and deferred compensation was $10 million, both down sharply from the same period of 2006 due to higher stock price appreciation in the year-ago quarter and changes in the company’s long-term compensation plans

implemented last year. Pension expense for the quarter was $252 million, of which $130 million was recorded in unallocated expense and the balance was recorded as expense at BCA and IDS.

Boeing’s pension plans are fully funded on a projected benefit obligation basis, and cash contribution requirements for the pension plans are expected to be modest over the next few years.

Outlook

The company’s financial guidance for 2007 and 2008 is reaffirmed as indicated below and summarized in Table 7, reflecting strong performance from core businesses, higher commercial airplane deliveries, lower R&D in 2008, and company wide productivity gains.

Boeing’s 2007 revenue guidance is between $64.5 billion and $65 billion, and 2008 revenue guidance is between $71 billion and $72 billion. Earnings per share guidance remains between $4.55 and $4.75 per share for 2007 and $5.55 to $5.75 per share for 2008. Operating cash flow for 2007 is expected to be greater than $4 billion, while cash flow guidance for 2008 is expected to exceed $7 billion.

Commercial Airplanes’ deliveries in 2007 are expected to be between 440 to 445 airplanes and are sold out. Revenue guidance for 2007 is between $32.5 billion and $33 billion, and operating margin guidance is greater than 10 percent. Airplane deliveries in 2008 are expected to be between 515 and 520 airplanes and are essentially sold out. Commercial Airplanes’ revenue in 2008 is expected to grow to between $39 billion and $40 billion accompanied by margin expansion to approximately 11 percent. The company expects airplane deliveries in 2009 to be higher than in 2008.

IDS revenue guidance for 2007 is approximately $31 billion and excludes approximately $1 billion of launch business revenue due to the transfer of launch activity into the ULA joint venture. Operating margins are expected to expand to approximately 11 percent in 2007. For 2008, IDS expects revenue to grow to between $32 billion and $33 billion, with operating margins of approximately 11 percent.

Boeing’s research and development forecast for 2007 is unchanged at between $3.2 billion and $3.4 billion, with an expected decline in 2008 to between $2.8 billion and $3.0 billion. Annual capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $1.6 billion in 2007 and in 2008.

 

6

The company’s non-cash pension expense is expected to be approximately $1.1 billion for 2007 and approximately $0.9 billion for 2008. The company expects pension expense to continue to decline after the guidance period with 2009 pension expense likely to be approximately half of the 2008 level. Discretionary funding of Boeing’s pension plans is expected to be approximately $500 million per year in 2007 and 2008. The company contributed $500 million during the first quarter of 2007. The company will continue to evaluate making additional discretionary contributions to its pension plans.

Non-GAAP Measure Disclosure

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures (indicated by an asterisk *) used in this report provide investors with important perspectives into the company’s ongoing business performance. The company does not intend for the information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measure. Other companies may define the measure differently. The following definitions are provided:

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is defined as GAAP operating cash flow less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, additions. 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 internally to assess both business performance and overall liquidity. Table 2 provides a reconciliation between GAAP operating cash flow and free cash flow.
