The Boeing Company [NYSE: BA] reported fourth-quarter revenue of
$28.3 billion, GAAP earnings per share of $5.93 and core earnings per share
(non-GAAP)* of $5.48, all company records. These results reflect record
commercial deliveries, higher defense and services volume and strong
performance which outweighed favorable tax impacts recorded in the fourth
quarter of 2017 (Table 1). Boeing generated operating cash flow of $2.9
billion, repurchased 1.6 million shares for $0.6 billion, paid $1.0 billion
of dividends and completed the acquisition of KLX.
Revenue was a record $101.1 billion for the full year reflecting higher
commercial deliveries and increased volume across the company. Records for
GAAP earnings per share of $17.85 and core earnings per share (non-GAAP)* of
$16.01 were driven by higher volume, improved mix and solid execution.
"Across the enterprise our team delivered strong core operating performance
and customer focus, driving record revenues, earnings and cash flow and
further extending our global aerospace industry leadership in 2018," said
Boeing Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Dennis Muilenburg. "Our
financial performance provided a firm platform to further invest in new growth
businesses, innovation and future franchise programs, as well as in our people
and enabling technologies. In the last 5 years, we have invested nearly $35
billion in key strategic areas of our business, all while increasing cash
returns to shareholders."
"Our One Boeing focus, clear strategies for growth, and leading positions in
large and growing markets, give us confidence for continued strong
performance, revenue expansion and solid execution across all three
businesses, which is reflected in our 2019 guidance."
"We remain focused on executing on our production and development programs as
well as our growth strategy while driving further productivity, quality and
safety improvements, investing in our team and creating more value and
opportunity for our customers, shareholders and employees."

*Non-GAAP measure; complete definitions of Boeing's non-GAAP measures are on page 6, "Non-GAAP Measures Disclosures."
Operating cash flow was $2.9 billion in the quarter and $15.3 billion for the
full year, reflecting planned higher commercial airplane production rates and
strong operating performance as well as timing of receipts and expenditures
(Table 2). During the quarter, the company repurchased 1.6 million shares for
$0.6 billion, paid $1.0 billion in dividends, and completed the acquisition
of KLX. For the full year, the company repurchased 26.1 million shares for
$9.0 billion and paid $3.9 billion in dividends. Based on strong cash
generation and confidence in the company's outlook, the board of directors in
December increased the quarterly dividend per share by 20 percent and replaced
the existing share repurchase program with a new $20 billion authorization.

the delivery of the 787th 787 Dreamliner and the first 737 MAX Boeing Business
Jet. The 737 program delivered 111 MAX airplanes in the fourth quarter,
including the first MAX delivery from the China Completion Center, and
delivered 256 MAX airplanes in 2018. The first 777X flight test airplane
completed final body join and power-on, and the program remains on track for
flight testing this year and first delivery in 2020.
Commercial Airplanes booked 262 net orders during the quarter, valued at $16
billion. Backlog remains robust with nearly 5,900 airplanes valued at $412
billion.
Defense, Space & Security

Operating Margin 10.9% 10.3% 0.6 Pts 6.9% 10.7% (3.8) Pts
Defense, Space & Security fourth-quarter revenue increased to $6.1 billion
driven by increased volume across F/A-18, satellites, and weapons (Table 5).
Fourth-quarter operating margin increased to 10.9 percent, primarily
reflecting favorable mix.
During the quarter, Defense, Space & Security was awarded contracts for the
second KC-46 Tanker to Japan, a joint ground system to provide tactical
satellite communications for the U.S. Air Force and to modernize 17 Chinooks
for Spain. Defense, Space & Security also completed a successful test for the
U.S. Air Force's Minuteman III and unveiled the SB>1 DEFIANT helicopter for
the U.S. Army. In January, the first two KC-46 Tankers were delivered to the
U.S. Air Force.
Backlog at Defense, Space & Security was $57 billion, of which 30 percent
represents orders from customers outside the U.S.
Global Services
Table 6. Global Services Fourth Quarter Full Year

Operating Margin 15.0% 14.7% 0.3 Pts 14.8% 15.4% (0.6) Pts
Global Services fourth-quarter revenue increased to $4.9 billion, primarily
driven by higher parts volume including the acquisition of KLX (Table 6).
Fourth-quarter operating margin increased to 15.0 percent reflecting improved
performance, partially offset by higher period costs.
During the quarter, Global Services was awarded Performance Based Logistics
contracts for C-17 and F-22 for the U.S. Air Force and F-15 for Qatar as well
as contracts for F/A-18 services for the U.S Navy. Global Services was also
selected by Shenzhen Airlines to provide crew management solutions, making
them the first airline in China to utilize Boeing AnalytX-powered services.
Significant milestones during the quarter included the first KC-46 training
flight with the U.S. Air Force. In addition, Global Services successfully
began integrating KLX and began operations of the Auxiliary Power Unit joint
venture with Safran.
Additional Financial Information

Revenues
Boeing Capital $60 $73 $274 $307
Unallocated items, eliminations and other ($30) $255 ($75) $542
Earnings from Operations
Boeing Capital $8 $27 $79 $114
FAS/CAS service cost adjustment $308 $389 $1,327 $1,438
Other unallocated items and eliminations ($246) ($328) ($1,414) ($1,099)
Other income, net $29 $32 $92 $123
Interest and debt expense ($158) ($93) ($475) ($360)
Effective tax rate 15.4% (13.8)% 9.9% 16.3%
At quarter-end, Boeing Capital's net portfolio balance was $2.8 billion.
Revenue in other unallocated items and eliminations decreased primarily due to
the timing of eliminations for intercompany aircraft deliveries and the 2017
sale of aircraft previously leased to customers. The change in earnings from
other unallocated items and eliminations is primarily due to timing of expense
allocations. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter increased from the
same period in the prior year primarily due to the favorable impacts from the
enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Outlook
Effective in the first quarter of 2019, the Company is making a change to the
accounting for military derivative aircraft. Revenues and costs associated
with military derivative aircraft were previously reported in the Commercial
Airplanes and Defense, Space & Security segments. Beginning in 2019, all
revenues and costs associated with military derivative aircraft will be
reported in the Defense, Space & Security segment. An additional exhibit is
included on page 15 with restated 2018 results adjusted for the change in
accounting for military derivative aircraft as well as the realignment of
certain programs between Global Services and Defense, Space & Security. The
Company has provided this comparable information in the exhibit and below to
help investors understand the 2019 financial outlook (Table 8).

Non-GAAP Measures Disclosures
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America
(GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP financial
information presented excludes certain significant items that may not be
indicative of, or are unrelated to, results from our ongoing business
operations. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide investors with
additional insight into the company's ongoing business performance. These
non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
the related GAAP measures, and other companies may define such measures
differently. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and
publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single
financial measure. The following definitions are provided:
Core Operating Earnings, Core Operating Margin and Core Earnings Per Share
Core operating earnings is defined as GAAP earnings from operations excluding
the FAS/CAS service cost adjustment. The FAS/CAS service cost adjustment
represents the difference between the FAS pension and postretirement service
costs calculated under GAAP and costs allocated to the business segments. Core
operating margin is defined as core operating earnings expressed as a
percentage of revenue. Core earnings per share is defined as GAAP diluted
earnings per share excluding the net earnings per share impact of the FAS/CAS
service cost adjustment and Non-operating pension and postretirement expenses.
Non-operating pension and postretirement expenses represent the components of
net periodic benefit costs other than service cost. Pension costs, comprising
service and prior service costs computed in accordance with GAAP are allocated
to Commercial Airplanes and BGS businesses supporting commercial customers.
Pension costs allocated to BDS and BGS businesses supporting government
customers are computed in accordance with U.S. Government Cost Accounting
Standards (CAS), which employ different actuarial assumptions and accounting
conventions than GAAP. CAS costs are allocable to government contracts. Other
postretirement benefit costs are allocated to all business segments based on
CAS, which is generally based on benefits paid. Management uses core operating
earnings, core operating margin and core earnings/per share for purposes of
evaluating and forecasting underlying business performance. Management
believes these core earnings measures provide investors additional insights
into operational performance as they exclude non-service pension and
post-retirement costs, which primarily represent costs driven by market
factors and costs not allocable to government contracts. A reconciliation
between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided on pages 13-14.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is defined as GAAP operating cash flow without capital
expenditures for property, plant and equipment additions. 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 as a measure to assess both business performance and overall liquidity.
Table 2 provides a reconciliation between GAAP operating cash flow and free
cash flow.
