CHICAGO, Oct. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA)
reported net income for the third quarter of 2003 of $256 million, or $0.32
per share, on revenues of $12.2 billion. This compares with net earnings of
$372 million, or $0.46 per share, on revenues of $12.7 billion for the third
quarter of 2002.
On Oct. 16, 2003, the company announced it will complete production of the
757 jetliner during 2004 after delivering more than 1000 units over 20 years.
The company recognized a charge related to this decision that reduced third
quarter operating earnings $184 million, or $0.14 per share.
"This quarter we continued to build a strong long-term future with
disciplined program management and decisive action," said Boeing Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer Phil Condit. "Development of the technical and
business case for a 7E7 program remained on track, and our decision to
complete production of the 757 reflects both market conditions and the
evolution of our product line. We also positioned our defense business for
continued long-term growth and performance by completing partner selection on
the Future Combat Systems program and moving forward with the Small Diameter
Bomb program."
As shown in Table 2, the company's third quarter earnings from operations
totaled $433 million. Operating earnings reflected solid results from
military and commercial airplane programs, which partially offset the 757
charge, planned lower commercial airplane deliveries, and lower pension
income.

(2) Upon adopting SFAS 142 in the first quarter of 2002, the company
recorded a transitional goodwill impairment charge of $2.4 billion, $1.8
billion net of tax, presented as a cumulative effect of accounting
change. This charge did not impact 1Q02 reported earnings from
operations.
Pre-tax expense for share-based plans totaled $115 million and reduced
earnings per share by $0.09 in the third quarter. This reflects non-cash
expenses attributable to the company's equity compensation plans. Deferred
stock compensation expense attributable to vested and undistributed
performance shares, which is separately determined based on the quarterly
change in the company's stock price, did not impact earnings per share as
company's stock price on September 30 was little changed from June 30.
During the quarter, the company generated strong cash flows that it used
to make a $1.2 billion discretionary cash contribution to its pension plans.
Including the contribution, the company's third quarter operating cash flow
was negative $168 million, and free cash flow* was negative $343 million, as
shown in Table 3. As a result of the contribution, future pension funding
requirements will be reduced, depending on plan and market performance.

2002 operating cash flow reflects previously disclosed reclassification
of certain cash flows into investing activities.
As shown in Table 4, the company's cash balance remained strong at
$1.7 billion. Boeing debt was flat at $4.8 billion while debt at Boeing
Capital grew modestly, consistent with customer-financing portfolio growth.

Segment Results
Boeing Commercial Airplanes
Commercial Airplanes continued to aggressively manage for profitability
through the continuing downturn in its markets, while positioning itself for
long-term strength. Third-quarter results reflect solid operating performance
on planned lower delivery volumes, offset both by the impact associated with
the decision to complete 757 production as well as pension expense.
Commercial Airplanes made further progress on resizing operations and
improving efficiency while moving forward with its disciplined product
development strategy. Commercial Airplanes' results are summarized in Table
5.

During the third quarter, deliveries of commercial airplanes decreased 11
percent to 65 airplanes, and revenues fell 17 percent to $5.0 billion, when
compared with the third quarter of 2002. Reported earnings from operations
totaled $35 million and operating margins were 0.7 percent. Third quarter
earnings and margins reflect expenses totaling $184 million attributable to
completing production of the 757.
Commercial Airplanes received 51 gross orders during the quarter.
Contractual backlog totaled $65.1 billion on September 30 compared with
$66.0 billion at the end of the second quarter.
Integrated Defense Systems
Integrated Defense Systems delivered strong revenue growth and solid
operating performance for the quarter. Revenues increased 12 percent to
$7.3 billion, up from $6.5 billion in the third quarter of 2002. Reported
operating earnings totaled $561 million compared with earnings from operations
of $406 million in the third quarter of 2002. Operating margins for the
quarter were 7.7 percent compared with 6.3 percent for the same period last
year. Aircraft and weapon, support, and network systems programs continued to
perform well. Integrated Defense Systems results are summarized below in

Aircraft and Weapon Systems delivered another quarter of strong
profitability. Revenues for the quarter rose 2 percent to just under
$3.0 billion on increased JDAM volume. Performance remained excellent with
operating margins at 11.9 percent, up from 11.0 percent in 2002, and included
continuing investment in the 767 Tanker program.
Network Systems results for the third quarter reflected continued growth
in its Department of Defense (DoD) network-centric and homeland security
program base as revenues rose 15 percent to $2.3 billion. Operating margins
were 6.5 percent and reflected strong program performance offset by a
$47 million pre-tax non-cash charge related to the Resource 21 venture based
on NASA's decision not to award an imagery contract. Period results in 2002
included a $100 million charge related to the development of the 737 Airborne
Early Warning & Control aircraft.
Support Systems delivered strong growth with revenues up 19 percent to
almost $1.1 billion on significant increases in spares for tactical aircraft,
maintenance and modifications on transport aircraft, and integrated logistic
support and services. Operating margins remained strong at 11.1 percent
compared with 14.2 percent in the third quarter of 2002, which benefited from
a gain related to the divestiture of an equity investment.
Launch and Orbital Systems revenues for the quarter were up 37 percent to
just under $1.0 billion on increased Delta IV deliveries and higher satellite
sales. Operating losses were $58 million and reflect development cost on the
Delta IV heavy demonstration vehicle and slight cost growth on current
commercial satellite programs. This compares to a loss of $113 million in
third quarter of 2002, which included the non-cash write-down of a
$100 million equity investment in Teledesic, LLC.
At the end of the quarter, contractual backlog was $34.4 billion compared
with $38.8 billion at the end of the second quarter; unobligated backlog
totaled $44.3 billion.
Boeing Capital Corporation
Boeing Capital Corporation (BCC) continues to focus on minimizing risk and
preserving value with prudently structured transactions and portfolio
management. BCC results are summarized in Table 7.
Table 7. Boeing Capital Corporation Operating Results
(Millions) 3rd Quarter % Nine Months %
2003 2002 Change 2003 2002 Change
Revenues $344 $236 46% $914 $718 27%
Pre-Tax Income/(Loss) (1) $108 ($93) N.M. $67 $46 46%
(1) Includes financing-related interest expense of $110 million and
$108 million for 3Q03 and 3Q02, respectively. Year-to-date financing-
related interest expense totaled $332 million for 2003 and
$297 million for 2002.
During the quarter, revenues and pre-tax income increased to $344 million
and $108 million, respectively, primarily as a result of portfolio growth
during the second half of 2002. BCC third-quarter revenues and income also
reflect the sale of certain financing assets, which resulted in a $45 million
gain in the period. This gain was partially offset by non-cash charges
totaling $34 million, primarily to revalue selected operating lease assets.
In the third quarter of 2002, comparable results included pre-tax charges of
$149 million to strengthen reserves and revalue certain investments.
BCC's customer-financing portfolio grew modestly in the quarter to
$12.2 billion, up from $12.0 billion at the end of the second quarter and
$11.5 billion in the third quarter of 2002. The increase reflected new
business volume totaling $0.6 billion offset by $0.4 billion of asset run-off
and depreciation. The allowance for losses on finance lease and note
receivables at quarter-end was 4.6 percent compared to 5.2 percent at the end
of the second quarter.
At quarter-end, approximately 78 percent of BCC's portfolio was related to
Boeing products and services (primarily commercial aircraft), unchanged from
the end of the second quarter. During the quarter, BCC agreed to restructure
the terms of its loans and leases with United Airlines. The company does not
expect the revised terms will have a material adverse effect on earnings, cash
flow or financial position. Leverage, as measured by the ratio of debt-to-
equity, declined during the quarter from 5.3-to-1 to 5.2-to-1.
"Other" Segment
The "Other" segment consists chiefly of the Connexion by Boeing(SM), Air
Traffic Management, and Boeing technology units, as well as certain results
related to the consolidation of all business units. Third-quarter losses from
operations totaled $55 million primarily reflecting investment in Connexion by
Boeing as well as net adjustments relating to customer financing activities
with an unfavorable impact totaling $14 million. This compares to
$191 million in the third quarter of 2002, which included a $101 million
charge related to customer-financing activities subject to Boeing company
guarantees.
Connexion by Boeing continues to prepare for launch of commercial service
in 2004, while Air Traffic Management builds support for a modernized global
air traffic management system. During the third quarter, Connexion by Boeing
signed an initial service agreement with SAS for 11 aircraft and a memorandum
of understanding with All Nippon Airlines.
Outlook
Table 8 reflects the company's current assessment of its financial outlook
during the guidance period.
Table 8. Financial Outlook
(Billions, except per share data) 2003 2004
Revenues +/- $50 +/- $52
Earnings Per Share (GAAP) ($0.12)-($0.02) $1.75 - $1.95
Add back: Goodwill Impairment Charges $1.02
Adjusted Earnings Per Share* $0.90 - $1.00 $1.75 - $1.95

Less: Property, Plant & Equipment, Net +/- $1 +/- $1
Free Cash Flow* $1.0 - $1.5 >$2.5
The company actively monitors conditions in its key markets. In the
commercial aviation market the airline industry environment remains mixed with
trends varying between carriers and regions. A number of low-cost carriers
continue to gain market share, remain profitable and are ordering new
airplanes. Although there have been encouraging signs, the downturn remains
severe and many airlines continue to incur losses that dampen demand across
all airplane types. The timing of a civil aviation delivery recovery remains
uncertain and will likely be no earlier than 2005.
At the same time, the company expects its defense and non-commercial space
businesses to perform well in their growing markets. Boeing Integrated
Defense Systems expects continued growth and performance in its Network
Systems segment, which contains missile defense, homeland security,
intelligence, and DoD network-centric businesses. The Aircraft and Weapon and
Support Systems segments are also expected to continue delivering strong
results. Strength in defense and non-commercial space markets should continue
to partially offset the downturn in the company's commercial aviation and
space markets, and drive revenue growth in 2004. The company's outlook
contemplates signing the proposed contract in 2003 to deliver 100 767 tankers
to the U.S. Air Force.
Boeing Commercial Airplanes' delivery forecast for 2003 is unchanged at
approximately 280 airplanes. The delivery forecast for 2004 is also unchanged
at between 275 and 290 airplanes and is essentially sold out at the lower end
of the range. Commercial Airplanes expects demand for aircraft services and
spares to remain soft due to severe market conditions.
The company is increasing its revenue outlook for 2003 from
+/- $49 billion to +/- $50 billion. The revision primarily reflects continued
revenue strength in the company's military programs. The company's 2004
revenue outlook is unchanged at +/- $52 billion.
The company is revising its 2003 earnings per share guidance to reflect
the results of the quarter. On a GAAP basis, 2003 earnings per share guidance
is revised from ($0.07) to $0.03 per share to ($0.12) to ($0.02) per share.
Adjusted earnings per share* guidance is also revised from $0.95 - $1.05 per
share to $0.90 to $1.00 per share. The company's 2003 adjusted earnings per
share* guidance adds back the non-cash charges for goodwill impairment ($1.02
per share) recognized in the first quarter. Earnings per share guidance for
2004 remains unchanged at $1.75 to $1.95 per share.
The company is also revising its cash flow guidance to reflect its
$1.2 billion of discretionary pension contributions in the third quarter. For
2003, operating cash flow guidance is revised from $3.0 to $3.5 billion to
$2.0 to $2.5 billion. Similarly, the company is revising free cash flow*
guidance for 2003 from $2.0 to $2.5 billion to $1.0 to $1.5 billion. For
2004, operating cash flow guidance remains unchanged at greater than $3.5
billion with free cash flow* guidance unchanged at greater than $2.5 billion.
Boeing expects research and development to remain between 3.0 and 3.5
percent of sales during the guidance period.
Non-GAAP Measure Disclosure
The following definitions are provided for non-GAAP (Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles) measures (indicated by an asterisk *) used by the
company within this disclosure. Boeing does not intend for the information to
be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures.
Other companies may define the measures differently.
Adjusted Financial Results
Boeing reports adjusted earnings per share, earnings from operations, and
operating margins excluding SFAS 142 goodwill charges. Management believes
that because goodwill is a non-cash charge related to past acquisitions,
adjusting the company's financial results to exclude goodwill provides
investors with a clearer perspective on the current underlying operating
performance of the company. Management uses earnings from operations
excluding goodwill charges as an internal measure of business operating
performance.
Adjusted Earnings per Share
Boeing defines adjusted earnings per share as GAAP earnings per share
(EPS) less SFAS 142 goodwill charges. Table 1 reconciles GAAP EPS and
adjusted EPS.
Adjusted Earnings from Operations (or Adjusted Operating Losses)
Boeing defines adjusted earnings from operations as GAAP earnings from
operations less SFAS 142 goodwill charges. Tables 2, 5, 6, and 8 reconcile
GAAP earnings from operations and adjusted earnings from operations.
Adjusted Operating Margin
Boeing defines adjusted operating margin as the adjusted earnings from
operations (defined above) divided by revenues. Tables 2, 5, and 6 reconcile
GAAP operating margins and adjusted operating margins.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is defined as GAAP operating cash flow less capital
expenditures for property, plant, and equipment, net. GAAP operating cash
flow includes intercompany cash received from the sale of aircraft by Boeing
Commercial Airplanes (BCA) for customers who receive financing from Boeing
Capital Corporation (BCC). The year-to-date contribution to operating cash
flow related to customer deliveries of Boeing airplanes financed by Boeing
Capital Corporation totals approximately $1.4 billion, compared to just under
$2.2 billion for the first three quarters of 2002.
GAAP investing cash flow includes a reduction in cash for the intercompany
cash paid by BCC to BCA, as well as an increase in cash for amounts received
from third parties, primarily customers paying amounts due on aircraft
financing transactions. The majority of BCC's customer financing is funded by
debt and cash flow from BCC operations.
Management believes free cash flow provides investors with an important
perspective on the cash available for shareholders, debt repayment, and
acquisitions after making the capital investments required to support ongoing
business operations and long term value creation. Free cash flow does not
represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as
it excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt.
Management uses free cash flow internally to assess both business performance
and overall Boeing liquidity. Table 3 provides a reconciliation between GAAP
operating cash flow and free cash flow.
