CHICAGO, April 26, 2006 — The Boeing Company [NYSE: BA] today reported double-digit increases in its first-quarter financial performance and reaffirmed its 2006 and 2007 guidance, emphasizing its outlook for continued revenue and margin growth and strong cash flow.

Boeing’s first-quarter net income rose 29 percent to $692 million from $535 million a year ago, and earnings per share rose 33 percent to $0.88 per share from $0.66 per share last year. First-quarter results include a benefit of $0.03 per share due to tax settlements. Last year’s results included a tax benefit of $0.14 per share, a charge of $0.07 per share related to divestitures, and a benefit of $0.02 per share due to a change in accounting method. Without those items, adjusted earnings per share* grew 49 percent from $0.57 in the first quarter of 2005. Reconciliations of GAAP earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share* are attached to this release.

Revenue for the quarter increased 12 percent to $14.3 billion from $12.7 billion, operating cash flow grew 46 percent to $2.1 billion and the company’s operating margin rose to 6.7 percent from 5.4 percent.

“Strong overall performance, combined with a significant increase in commercial airplane deliveries, drove this quarter’s results,” said Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Jim McNerney. “Going forward, our strong market position and continued focus on growth and productivity should enable us to deliver financial results that reflect the quality of our people and our technologies.”

Boeing’s backlog at quarter end was a record $213 billion, up 42 percent from a year ago and 4 percent in the quarter. The growth primarily reflects the record 1,002 commercial airplane orders won during 2005 and the additional 176 orders received during the first quarter of 2006.

Free cash flow* grew 50 percent to $1.6 billion for the quarter after an investment of $0.4 billion in property, plant & equipment and a discretionary contribution of $0.5 billion in the company’s pension plans (Table 2).

Boeing’s cash and investments in marketable securities totaled $9.8 billion at quarter’s end, up 17 percent from $8.4 billion at the end of the previous quarter (Table 3) and up 56 percent from $6.3 billion at the end of the first quarter 2005. This reflected strong operating cash flow partially offset by the ongoing share repurchase program, pension plan contributions, and planned investments in Boeing’s core businesses. The company repurchased 5.5 million shares during the quarter for $404 million, leaving 18.9 million shares available under the existing repurchase authorization.

The Boeing Company debt increased by $0.3 billion from the end of the fourth quarter to $4.2 billion due to an increase in capital lease obligations classified as debt. Boeing Capital Corporation debt was unchanged at $6.2 billion as strong portfolio cash flows funded modest new customer financing requirements.

Boeing’s strong cash flow, balance sheet and liquidity led Moody’s to raise its ratings of Boeing and Boeing Capital debt securities during the quarter. The short term rating is now P1 and the long term rating is now A2, with a stable outlook.

Segment Results

Commercial Airplanes

Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ (BCA) first quarter revenues increased 48 percent to $7.1 billion on 40 percent growth in airplane deliveries (Table 4). Operating earnings rose 81 percent and operating margins increased to 10.0 percent, reflecting higher revenues, favorable model mix and productivity improvements, which more than exceeded planned increases in research and development expense.

The 787 Dreamliner program continued to make outstanding progress, while capturing an additional 54 firm orders during the quarter. In the two years from its launch, 26 customers have booked 350 firm orders for the new airplane.

BCA’s contractual backlog increased 6 percent to $132 billion, reflecting 176 net orders during the quarter. BCA’s backlog is up 107 percent from the end of the same quarter last year, driven by record orders in 2005 and continued strong order activity in the first quarter of 2006.

Integrated Defense Systems

Boeing Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) produced another quarter of double-digit operating margins, delivering 11.4 percent profitability on $7.2 billion of revenue (Table 5). Strong execution in both the Precision Engagement and Mobility Systems and Support Systems segments drove these results. Revenue declined 6 percent from a year ago as Support Systems’s 10 percent revenue growth was offset by lower volume in Proprietary and commercial satellite programs, strike-delayed launches, and the August 2005 sale of our Rocketdyne business.

As previously announced, IDS has reorganized into three new business segments to more effectively address evolving customer requirements for capability-driven solutions, and improve productivity. Selected results for 2005 have been recast to reflect the new structure and are attached to this release.

In Precision Engagement and Mobility Systems, IDS continues to deliver aircraft and weapons systems to meet our customers’ needs while improving profitability. Revenue was $3.1 billion for the quarter with operating margins of 15.1 percent. Higher deliveries on Apache and T-45 and strong performance across key programs such as C-17, F/A-18 and Rotorcraft drove improved margin performance, while revenue declined by 2 percent due to fewer planned milestone completions on 737 Airborne Early Warning & Control.

In Network and Space Systems, IDS achieved significant milestones on several key development programs. First-quarter revenue was $2.8 billion, a decrease of 15 percent from the first quarter of 2005 due to lower volume in Proprietary and Commercial satellite programs, and the Rocketdyne sale, partially offset by higher

volume on the Future Combat System program. Operating margins decreased compared to the same quarter of 2005 due in part to higher cost estimates to complete work on Delta IV and a military satellite program, and partly due to benefits in 2005 that were not part of 2006 results, including higher contract values for Delta IV and the gain from the sale of Electron Dynamic Devices (EDD).

Support Systems revenues rose 10 percent to $1.3 billion while operating margins grew to 14.8 percent due to continued outstanding performance on its broad portfolio of services and logistics programs. These results were driven by increased volume in Integrated Logistics programs supporting C-17 and F/A-18, and Training Systems & Services programs supporting F-15.

IDS’s industry-leading backlog remained stable at $80.6 billion, comprised of $42.3 billion contractual and $38.3 billion unobligated.

Boeing Capital Corporation

Boeing Capital Corporation (BCC) continued to support the operations of Boeing’s business units and manage portfolio risk. Despite consistent revenues, pre-tax income rose 59 percent to $70 million primarily on reduced expenses for operations, asset impairments and aircraft redelivery (Table 6). BCC’s quarter-end portfolio balance was $9.0 billion, down $0.2 billion from the end of the previous quarter and down $0.4 billion from the first quarter of 2005 as normal portfolio run-off and depreciation exceeded new business volume. These factors, combined with solid performance, allowed BCC to return $50 million in cash dividends and capital to Boeing during the quarter and more than $1 billion in the past 24 months. BCC leverage was down slightly to 4.9-to-1, as measured by the ratio of debt-to-equity.

Pre-tax (non-cash) pension expense for the quarter was $190 million, down $33 million or $0.03 per share from the same period of 2005 which included a pre-tax, non-cash pension charge of $69 million from the EDD sale. Share-based-plans expense was $202 million, down $43 million from the same period of 2005. Deferred stock compensation expense was $109 million, or $0.09 per share, as Boeing’s stock price rose 11 percent during the quarter.

Outlook

The company’s financial guidance for 2006 and 2007 is reaffirmed. The company is forecasting solid growth in 2006 and 2007 that reflects continued strong performance from its core businesses, higher commercial airplane deliveries and company-wide productivity gains (Table 7).

Boeing’s 2006 revenue is expected to be approximately $60 billion. Revenue guidance for 2007 is reaffirmed to be between $63.5 billion to $64.5 billion. Earnings per share for 2006 is expected to be between $3.25 and $3.45. Boeing also reaffirms its EPS guidance of between $4.10 and $4.30 per share for 2007. The company is maintaining its operating cash flow guidance for 2006 and 2007 at greater than $5.5 billion each year.

The current guidance doesn’t reflect the impact of the pending United Launch Alliance (ULA) transaction. Network & Space Systems revenue guidance for 2006 includes approximately $1 billion for business planned to be part of ULA. Upon completion of the transaction, Boeing will use the equity method of accounting for the joint venture, recognizing Boeing’s proportionate share of the venture’s earnings in the Network & Space Systems segment.

The commercial airplane outlook is very strong. The 2006 delivery forecast remains at approximately 395 airplanes, 36 percent higher than in 2005, and deliveries in 2007 are expected to increase to between 440 and 445 airplanes. Commercial Airplanes’ revenue for 2006 is expected to be approximately $27.5 billion, with operating margins greater than 9 percent, while revenue for 2007 is expected to be between $29.5 billion to $30.5 billion, with operating margins greater than 10 percent. The 2006 delivery forecast is sold out, and the forecast for 2007 is more than 98 percent sold out.

IDS revenue guidance is also reaffirmed at approximately $31.5 billion, with operating margins of approximately 10.5 percent for 2006. For 2007, IDS expects 2 to 5 percent revenue growth and operating margins above 10.5 percent.

Reflecting the new IDS segment structure, Precision Engagement & Mobility Systems expects revenues of approximately $14 billion and operating margins of approximately 13 percent in 2006, with a moderate growth outlook for 2007 and operating margins continuing in the low double-digit range. Network & Space Systems expects revenues of approximately $11.5 billion and margins of approximately 6 percent, with a moderate growth outlook for 2007 and operating margins in the high single digits. Support Systems expects revenue to be approximately $6 billion in 2006 with operating margins of about 13.5 percent, followed by moderate revenue growth in 2007 and operating margins continuing in the low double-digit range.

Boeing’s research and development outlays are forecast between $2.6 billion and $2.8 billion in 2006 and between $2.7 billion and $2.9 billion in 2007, reflecting continued investment in planned product development programs such as the 787 and 747-8. Annual capital expenditures should be approximately $1.6 billion in 2006 and $1.5 billion in 2007.

The company’s non-cash pension expense is expected to be approximately $1 billion for 2006 and for 2007. Pension cash funding is expected to be approximately $500 million in each of those years; the planned funding for 2006 was completed in the first quarter. 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 for free cash flow and adjusted earnings per share.

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.

Adjusted earnings per share

Adjusted earnings per share is defined as diluted earnings per share computed in accordance with GAAP adjusted for certain significant charges or credits. Management believes adjusted earnings per share are important to understanding the company’s on-going operations and provide additional insights into underlying business performance. Significant charges or credits are described in the attachments to this release which provide reconciliations between GAAP earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted Earnings Per Share

(Unaudited)

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company also discloses non-GAAP results that exclude certain significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding of the company’s ongoing operations. The company provides reconciliations of its non-GAAP financial reporting to the most comparable GAAP reporting. The company believes that discussion of results excluding certain significant charges or credits provides additional insights into underlying business performance. Adjusted earnings per share is not a measure recognized under GAAP. The determination of significant charges or credits may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and may vary from quarter to quarter.
