On Wednesday (October 27, 2021), Boeing reported their third quarter financial results for the period ending September 30, 2021. The company reported a third quarter GAAP net loss of $132 million or ($0.19) on an 8 percent year-over-year increase in revenue to $15.3 billion in revenue. The company's non-GAAP core operating loss of $59 million or ($0.60) per share.

“We are driving stability across our operations, investing in our future and positioning our teams to deliver for our customers as the market recovers. Commercial market demand continues to gain traction with broad-based vaccine distribution and border protocols beginning to open. Going forward, supply chain capacity and global trade will be key drivers of our industry and the broader economy's recovery. Our portfolio across commercial, defense, space and services is well positioned, and we're focused on improving performance, while advancing technologies and digital manufacturing capabilities to drive our next generation of products and a sustainable future.”


Summary of Boeing's Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results - Courtesy Boeing

During the third quarter, Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ revenue increased 24 percent year-over-year to $4.5 billion, primarily driven by higher 737 deliveries, partially offset by reduced 787 deliveries. Commercial Airplanes received orders for 70 737 MAX, 24 freighter and 12 787 airplanes during Q3 and delivered 85 airplanes, ending the period with a backlog of 4,100 commercial airplanes valued at $290 billion.


Since the FAA’s approval for the return to service of the 737 MAX Family of aircraft in November 2020, Boeing has delivered more than 195 of the type, with airline operators returning an additional 200 previously grounded MAX airplanes to service. Currently, 31 airlines are operating the 737 MAX, safely flying over 206,000 revenue flights and over 500,000 flight hours (as of October 24, 2021). Boeing is currently producing 19 737s per month, with plans to increase the production rate to 31 by early 2022.


Boeing continues to focus 787 production resources on inspections and rework and continues discussions with the FAA regarding the action required for resuming deliveries. Currently, Boeing is producing around two 787s per month until deliveries resume, and plans to gradually increase production to five per month. The company expects that the low 787 production rate and rework will result in approximately $1.0 billion in abnormal costs, including $183 million which was recorded in Q3 2021.
