Wed, 24 Apr 2024 20:01:00 +0000	Boeing needs to 'think about their next airplane': Analyst Boeing shares (BA) are still down ahead of Wednesday's session close after it reported its first-quarter earnings results this morning. Topping revenue estimates by posting $16.57 billion, the aerospace manufacturer narrowed its forecasted losses per share to $1.13. Boeing is juggling priorities as it wades through a deluge of issues brought on by concerns over its manufacturing quality and numerous federal probes. Melius Research Managing Director of Aerospace, Defense & Space Robert Spingarn joins Market Domination to lay out why Boeing is looking "a little bit more complex of a recovery story" than previously forecasted. "The two most important things are the 737 and 787 production rates. Those are the two cash cows in the commercial airplane business and they need to stabilize those aircraft programs and raise those rates to generate cash," Spingarn explains. "Then they have to improve the defense business, and that did come in a little better than expected today, so that was one of the positives. But it's still a negative cash flow business and it's got to swing to positive by 2026 in order to hit that $10 billion number." Spingarn also touches on Boeing's bid to acquire Spirit Aerosystems (SPR) For more expert insight and the latest market action, click here to watch this full episode of Market Domination.

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 18:47:00 +0000	Boeing Burns Through $4 Billion of Cash and Scales Back 737 MAX Production Boeing burned through nearly $4 billion in the most recent quarter as fallout from the Alaska Airlines midair accident exacted a financial toll.

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 14:58:23 +0000	Boeing, Spirit Aerosystems deal could be turnaround it needs Boeing's (BA) issues continue to mount as the aerospace manufacturer grapples with shrinking orders, a growing backlog of orders it needs to fulfill, and more, according to its first-quarter earnings report. In the wake of the mid-air incident in January that sparked multiple investigations into Boeing's 737 Max jetliner by federal regulators, the company faces a PR setback from consumers and travelers unsure whether to trust its aircraft. Stifel Senior Research Analyst Bert Subin joins The Morning Brief to discuss Boeing's potential deal with Spirit Aerosystems (SPR) and how that can potentially turn things around for Boeing. "The reality is Boeing's number one issue has been sort of getting its arms around quality and a supply chain, and Spirit is a huge part of that. And there have been quality lapses in recent years," Subin tells Yahoo Finance. "And so by acquiring Spirit, you can better integrate... vertically the supply chain and give the customers and the regulators greater confidence that you're going to produce the highest quality product every time. And so from that perspective, I think it's really important for reputation and for showing an actionable step toward improving the business."

Fri, 12 Apr 2024 19:48:31 +0000	Exclusive-Spirit AeroSystems limits overtime and hiring as Boeing 737 output drops (Reuters) -Boeing's key supplier Spirit AeroSystems is limiting overtime and hiring as production declines due to lower output of 737 MAX jets, Spirit told Reuters on Friday. Boeing's MAX jetliner production has fallen sharply in recent weeks as U.S. regulators step up factory checks and workers slow the assembly line outside Seattle to complete outstanding work. Boeing's deliveries dropped by half in March from a year ago as it deals with a sprawling crisis triggered by the Jan. 5 Alaska Airlines midair panel blowout.
Thu, 11 Apr 2024 20:38:02 +0000	Boeing's company culture challenges go beyond safety: Analyst A Senate subcommittee is set to hold a hearing next week to examine Boeing's (BA) safety culture. This comes after airlines reported numerous safety incidents in relation to the company's Boeing 737 MAX jet line. Melius Research Managing Director of Aerospace, Defense & Space Robert Spingarn joins Market Domination to provide insight on the upcoming hearing, Spingarn hones in on cultural issues within the company, noting the "distance" between the factory floor and executives. The divide was intensified by Boeing's decision to move its headquarters from Seattle to Chicago in the early 2000s, Spingarn says, calling the move a "disservice." In light of Boeing's leadership shake-up, Spingarn believes "the changes are gonna be more significant than they were in the past," which may help the company see a turnaround. With the current CEO, Dave Calhoun, set to resign at the close of 2024, Spingarn is uncertain whether Calhoun will remain in the role if a successor is chosen sooner. He emphasizes the need for the next CEO to have an engineering background and production floor experience — recommending names like Pat Shanahan and Gwen Shotwell.

Thu, 11 Apr 2024 13:32:22 +0000	Exclusive-Airbus CEO says 'not unlikely' it will take some Spirit Aero plants The head of Airbus told Reuters it is "not unlikely" that the European planemaker takes control of two U.S. and UK plants run by Spirit Aerosystems if Boeing goes ahead with plans to buy one of the industry's key suppliers. But Chief Executive Guillaume Faury said it was up to Boeing to fine-tune its intentions - having changed the status quo with a surprise plan to buy back its former unit - and Airbus would have a "word to say" about where the two factories ended up. The fate of the plants and their combined 4,000 workers - in Kinston in North Carolina and Belfast, Northern Ireland - has been swept up in the latest crisis at Boeing, which aims to buy its supplier to ease the fallout from a 737 MAX panel blowout.

Thu, 04 Apr 2024 16:02:31 +0000	Exclusive: Boeing, Airbus exploring framework to divvy up Spirit Aero's operations, sources say Boeing and Airbus are edging towards a potentially coordinated deal to split operations of troubled supplier Spirit AeroSystems, taking on plants needed to support their top jet programs, people familiar with the matter said. If successful, any agreement involving the two aerospace giants would end Boeing’s 20-year effort to farm out key elements of its production process as it grapples with a sprawling crisis that erupted after a January mid-air panel blowout on a 737 MAX plane. But in order for Boeing to regain control of its supply chain, it has to deal with its arch-rival Airbus, which accounts for roughly one-fifth of Spirit’s revenues.

The Federal Aviation Administration said last month its 737 MAX production audit found multiple instances where both companies allegedly failed to comply with manufacturing quality control requirements.
