The facts
Chief executive Kelly Ortberg said stabilising production at 47 aircraft a month would extend into 2027. The financial plan now targets 52 a month in the second half of 2027. [1]
Chief financial officer Jesus Malave said the delays would leave deliveries below the 500 target. Boeing delivered 124 aircraft in the 737 programme during the quarter. [1]
The company reported quarterly revenue of US$24.188 billion and a GAAP net loss of US$116 million, or US$0.26 per diluted share. [2]
Axios independently reported the delivery shortfall and delayed monthly production targets. [3]
Still unconfirmed
- The final 2026 737 delivery total and timing of a sustained production increase remain uncertain.
