Boeing's aircraft deliveries increase, losses narrow, and new 737 Max certification expected this year

First-quarter loss per share was $0.11, with a core loss per share of $0.20. First-quarter adjusted free cash flow was negative $1.45 billion, compared to an expected negative $2.61 billion. First-quarter commercial airplane revenue was $9.2 billion, below the anticipated $10.08 billion. Boeing stated it still expects the heavily delayed 737 Max 7 and Max 10—the smallest and largest models in its bestselling Max series—to receive certification later this year and begin deliveries in 2027. In a note to employees, CEO Kelly Ortberg wrote: “Despite some challenges, I am proud of how our team came together, overcame difficulties, and kept us on track with our annual plan. When we work as a team, the achievements our company can realize are truly remarkable.”
