Boeing has reported a third quarter net loss of $5.34 billion or ($7.14) per diluted share on a year-over-year increase in revenue of 30 percent to $23.3 billion. At September 30, 2025, the company had an order backlog of $636 billion, including over 5,900 commercial jets.
On Wednesday (October 29, 2025), Boeing reported their third quarter financial results for the period ending September 30, 2025. The company reported a third quarter net loss of $5.34 billion or ($7.14) per diluted share on a year-over-year increase in revenue of 30 percent to $23.3 billion. Boeing’s third quarter loss reflects a $4.9 billion charge related to the updated 777X certification timeline. Boeing ended the quarter with an order backlog valued at $636 billion, including over 5,900 commercial airplanes, as well as cash and marketable securities totaling $23.0 billion, and undrawn credit facilities totaling $10.0 billion.
In Wednesday’s announcement, Boeing’s President and CEO, Kelly Ortberg, said,
“With a sustained focus on safety and quality, we achieved important milestones in our recovery as we generated positive free cash flow in the quarter and jointly agreed with the FAA in October to increase 737 production to 42 per month. While we are disappointed in the 777X schedule delay, the airplane continues to perform well in flight testing, and we remain focused on the work ahead to complete our development programs and stabilize our operations in order to fully recover our company's performance and restore trust with all of our stakeholders.”
Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ third quarter revenue increased 49 percent compared to Q3 2024 to $11.1 billion, primarily attributable to higher deliveries. The 737 program stabilized production at 38 per month during the period, and Boeing jointly agreed with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in October to increase production to 42 per month. The 787 Dreamliner program continued stabilizing production at seven per month and progressed on previously announced investments to expand South Carolina operations. During the third quarter, the company updated their assessment of the 777-9 certification timeline and now anticipates the first delivery in 2027, resulting in a pre-tax earnings charge of $4.9 billion.
Commercial Airplanes netted 161 new orders in the third quarter, including 50 787 Dreamliners for Turkish Airlines and 30 737-8 MAX jets for Norwegian Group. The division delivered 160 airplanes during the period, the highest quarterly delivery rate since 2018. Boeing Commercial airplanes ended the third quarter with and order backlog of over 5,900 airplanes values at $535 billion.
