- Backlog near $694.7 billion and April orders of 135 aircraft support delivery growth.[recent news]
- Virtual Airplane and line-fit connectivity can expand higher-margin recurring service revenue.[recent news]
What critics are saying
- Commercial Airplanes still posts losses, so production slips immediately pressure cash flow.[recent news]
- Another 737 quality failure would halt the delivery ramp and trigger FAA intervention.[recent news]
- China demand remains politically fragile after a smaller-than-expected 200-jet order.[recent news]

↑ 2%SES has reached a milestone with Boeing to offer its multi-orbit antenna as a line-fit connectivity solution on Boeing commercial aircraft. Boeing will install SES' in-cabin hardware network during factory production, starting with the 737 followed by the 787. The collaboration allows airlines to receive new aircraft with onboard network and connectivity service ready immediately after delivery. Boeing will install the complete in-cabin network and coordinate external equipment installation. SES' electronically steered array antenna system operates across both low-Earth orbit and geostationary satellite constellations, enabling global coverage and low-latency performance. The company has completed 500 installations and has 1,000 commitments in the pipeline for its multi-orbit system.
As the US-Israel war with Iran enters its fifth week, American defence contractors and oil companies are reaping substantial profits whilst consumers face surging petrol prices approaching $4 per gallon. Defence stocks have surged, with Lockheed Martin jumping 25% this year after winning a contract to triple missile seeker production. Oil companies including ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron have seen share prices rise over 20% as US crude nearly doubled from $65 to over $110 per barrel following Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. US oil producers could gain an additional $63 billion in profit, according to Rystad Energy. The situation mirrors 2022's Russia-Ukraine crisis, when global oil companies made $916 billion whilst American consumers faced record $5 per gallon petrol prices and 9% inflation.
Boeing's core stage for NASA's Space Launch System successfully powered the Artemis II mission, lifting off at 6:35pm ET on 1 April 2026. The rocket carried NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen on a 10-day lunar journey aboard the Orion spacecraft Integrity. The 212-foot core stage, manufactured at NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans, features liquid oxygen and hydrogen tanks and four RS-25 engines producing 2.2 million pounds of thrust. Eight and a half minutes into flight, the core stage completed its mission and separated from the upper stage. Boeing is currently preparing core stages for Artemis III to V missions at Michoud and Kennedy Space Center, using components from suppliers across 38 states.
Boeing has secured new aircraft orders from Sun PhuQuoc Airways and Vietnam Airlines, highlighting a growing backlog amid questions about margins and cash generation. The company's shares have declined 16.4% year-to-date and 16.3% over 30 days, though one-year total shareholder return stands at 11.7%. Trading at $190.52 against an average analyst price target of $271.21, Boeing shows an estimated intrinsic discount of 37.9%. Analysts project revenue growth of approximately 13.6% annually, with sales climbing from around $80 billion in 2024 towards $110 billion by 2027, driven by increased production rates for the 737 MAX and 787, plus 777X introduction. The key risks include persistent manufacturing issues and potential order deferrals if demand weakens, threatening Boeing's $89.5 billion revenue pipeline.
Boeing is expected to report a fiscal first-quarter 2026 loss of $0.60 per share, down 22.5% from a loss of $0.49 per share in the year-ago quarter. The Arlington, Virginia-based aerospace manufacturer has beaten consensus estimates in two of the last four quarters. For the full year, analysts expect Boeing to report earnings per share of $0.45, up 104.2% from a loss per share of $10.64 in fiscal 2025. The company's shares have risen 6.4% over the past 52 weeks, underperforming the S&P 500's 11.9% gain. Boeing faces rising competition from China and trade tensions affecting aircraft orders. Chinese tariffs on Boeing planes could impact future sales in a critical growth market. Analysts maintain a "Strong Buy" rating with an average price target of $270.92.
