Boeing earnings test production recovery timeline

Wall Street anticipates a narrowed loss compared to the $5.34 billion deficit recorded during the same period in 2025. Analysts polled by LSEG project a loss of 21 cents per share alongside $23.84 billion in revenue. Because the bulk of an aircraft’s price is only collected upon delivery, the speed at which Boeing pushes jets out of its hangars is the defining metric for its financial recovery.

CEO Kelly Ortberg recently tempered expectations, noting that stabilizing production lines is taking longer than initially forecast. While output currently hovers around 47 units per month for the 737 Max, the company is looking toward 2025 to scale significantly higher. Recent regulatory milestones provide some tailwind, as the Federal Aviation Administration granted certification for both the 737 Max 7 and the 737 Max 10 in recent months, clearing the path for the full aircraft family.
