Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

On January 5, 2024, an Alaska Airlines 737-9 flight made an emergency landing after a mid-exit door plug detached in flight. Following the accident, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grounded and required inspections of all 737-9 aircraft with a mid-exit door plug, which constituted the large majority of the approximately 220 737-9 aircraft in the in-service fleet. On January 24, 2024, the FAA approved an enhanced maintenance and inspection process that was required to be performed on each of the grounded 737-9 aircraft. Our 737-9 operators returned their fleets to service in the first quarter. All 737-9 aircraft in production are undergoing this same enhanced inspection process prior to delivery.

The Alaska Airlines accident and the resulting actions we are taking, including slowing production, to improve compliance with our manufacturing quality control requirements have significantly impacted our financial position, results of operations and cash flows during the first half of 2024.

Consolidated Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Consolidated Results of Operations

The following table summarizes key indicators of consolidated results of operations:

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)Six months ended June 30Three months ended June 30

Revenues

The following table summarizes Revenues:

(Dollars in millions)Six months ended June 30Three months ended June 30
2024202320242023
Commercial Airplanes$10,656$15,544$6,003$8,840
Defense, Space & Security12,97112,7066,0216,167
Global Services9,9349,4664,8894,746
Unallocated items, eliminations and other(126)(44)(47)(2)
Total$33,435$37,672$16,866$19,751

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $4,237 million compared with the same period in 2023 driven by lower revenues at Commercial Airplanes (BCA), partially offset by higher revenues at Global Services (BGS) and Defense, Space & Security (BDS). BCA revenues decreased by $4,888 million primarily driven by lower 737 and 787 deliveries and 737-9 customer considerations related to the January 2024 grounding. BGS revenues increased by $468 million primarily due to higher commercial services revenue, partially offset by lower government services revenue. BDS revenues increased by $265 million primarily due to higher volume on weapons and proprietary programs, partially offset by higher net unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments on major fixed-price development programs.

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $2,885 million compared with the same period in 2023 driven by lower revenues at BCA and BDS, partially offset by higher revenues at BGS. BCA revenues decreased by $2,837 million primarily driven by lower 787 and 737 deliveries. BDS revenues decreased by $146 million compared with the same period in 2023 primarily driven by higher unfavorable cumulative contract catch-up adjustments on certain major fixed-price development programs, partially offset by increased volume on weapons and proprietary programs. BGS revenues increased by $143 million primarily due to higher commercial services revenue, partially offset by lower government services revenue.

Revenues will continue to be significantly impacted until the global supply chain stabilizes, labor instability diminishes, and deliveries ramp up.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no significant changes to our market risk since December 31, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024 and have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b)Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of 2024 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Currently, we are involved in a number of legal proceedings. For a discussion of contingencies related to legal proceedings, see Note 18 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risks update the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Please refer to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, for other risks related to our business.

Our pending acquisition of Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (Spirit) subjects us to various risks and uncertainties, including risks that we may not complete the acquisition or realize the anticipated benefits in the expected timeframe or at all.

Completion of our acquisition of Spirit is subject to a number of conditions set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger among us, Spirit and one of our wholly owned subsidiaries (Merger Agreement). Some of the conditions, such as approval by Spirit’s stockholders, certain regulatory approvals, and the ability of Spirit to enter into definitive agreements relating to the disposition of Spirit operations related to certain Airbus commercial work packages and consummate the related transactions, are beyond our control, which make the completion of our acquisition of Spirit (and the timing thereof) uncertain. In addition, the Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both Spirit and Boeing, which if exercised, will also result in the acquisition not being consummated. Furthermore, the governmental authorities from which regulatory approvals related to the acquisition are required may impose burdensome or unacceptable conditions on the completion of the acquisition, require changes to the terms of the Merger Agreement, or prevent or delay the consummation of the acquisition. If the acquisition is not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected and we will be subject to a number of risks, including expenditure of time and resources, possible negative reactions from certain stakeholders, and potential market price fluctuations. If we are successful in completing the acquisition, we will be subject to other risks, including those related to the successful integration of Spirit into our business and operations. Difficulties in integrating Spirit may result in the failure to realize anticipated benefits of the acquisition (including anticipated synergies and quality improvements) in the expected timeframe or at all, as well as operational challenges, the diversion of management’s attention from other ongoing business concerns, and unforeseen expenses, which may have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Any of these events could impact our operations and our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. For additional information on the acquisition, see Note 2 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
