Boeing (NYSE:) the airline manufacturing giant that is ordinarily the envy of the world, and one of only two airline manufacturers across the globe (AirBus being the other), reported their Q1 ’26 financial results on Wednesday morning, April 22nd, 2026, and while the results weren’t great, the results do indicate Boeing is slowly moving forward with aircraft construction and deliveries, but may not hit “peak” output until 2028.
According to Jeffries, free-cash-flow (FCF) was “the star of the quarter” even though FCF was still a loss of ($1.4 bl), so cash-flow-from-operations was likely better-than-expected at just a loss of ($179 ml). Jefferies also noted that the Max-7 and Max-10 certifications are coming in 2026.
From a valuation perspective, Morningstar noted that half of BA’s enterprise value will come from the 737, thanks to its higher margin. Morningstar expects the 737 to return to 2018-level production by late 2027, which is just 18 months away.
