As per reports, Boeing (BA) released third-quarter earnings recently & reported an increase in revenue to $15.28 billion in the quarter, up 8% from $14.14 billion a year ago, but below the $16.3 billion analysts forecast. The company reported a $132 million net loss for the quarter though it was narrower than the $466 million it lost a year earlier. The aerospace giant lost 60 cents per share, more than the 20 cents analysts expected. Boeing’s operating cash flow improved to a negative $262 million compared with $4.8 billion a year earlier.
Boeing informed quality issues with seams on the fuselages of some of its 787s last year, resulting in inspections that prompted Boeing to suspend deliveries of the planes to airline customers, depriving the company of cash. Deliveries resumed briefly this year but were put on halt again in May for more inspections. The company delivered 62 737s in the quarter, the most since the first quarter of 2019, informed CEO Dave Calhoun. It is producing 19 Max planes a month, up from 16 in July. Chinese regulators still haven’t signed off on the Boeing Max, the biggest hurdle left in returning the planes fully to service.
