Commercial Airplanes fourth quarter revenue increased to $10.5 billion driven
by higher deliveries and favorable mix (Table 4). Operating margin of 0.4
percent also reflects improved performance and lower abnormal costs.

The company continues to cooperate transparently with the FAA following the
Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 accident involving a 737-9. Commercial Airplanes
is taking immediate actions to strengthen quality on the 737 program,
including requiring additional inspections within its factory and at key
suppliers, supporting expanded oversight from airline customers and pausing
737 production for one day to refocus its employees on quality. The company
has also appointed an outside expert to lead an in-depth independent
assessment of Commercial Airplanes' quality management system, with
recommendations provided directly to Calhoun and the Aerospace Safety
Committee of Boeing's Board of Directors.

The 737 program continues to deliver airplanes and its production rate is now
at 38 per month. The 787 program production rate is now at five per month.

During the quarter, Commercial Airplanes booked 611 net orders, including 411
737, 98 777X, and 83 787 airplanes, began certification flight testing on the
737-10, and resumed production on the 777X program. Commercial Airplanes
delivered 157 airplanes during the quarter and backlog included over 5,600
airplanes valued at $441 billion.

Defense, Space & Security fourth quarter revenue was $6.7 billion. Fourth
quarter operating margin was (1.5) percent, primarily driven by $139 million
of losses on certain fixed-price development programs. Results were also
impacted by unfavorable performance and mix on other programs.

During the quarter, Defense, Space & Security captured an award from the U.S.
Air Force for 15 KC-46A Tankers, began the U.S. Air Force developmental flight
test program for the T-7A Red Hawk, and Canada selected the P-8A Poseidon as
its multi-mission aircraft. Backlog at Defense, Space & Security was $59
billion, of which 29 percent represents orders from customers outside the U.S.

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/(loss), Core Operating Margin and Core Earnings/(loss)
Per Share

Core operating earnings/(loss) is defined as GAAP Earnings/(loss) from
operations excluding the FAS/CAS service cost adjustment. The FAS/CAS
service cost adjustment represents the difference between the Financial
Accounting Standards (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/(loss) expressed as a percentage of
revenue. Core earnings/(loss) per share is defined as GAAP Diluted
earnings/(loss) per share excluding the net earnings/(loss) 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 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/(loss), core operating margin and core earnings/(loss) per share for
purposes of evaluating and forecasting underlying business performance.
Management believes these core 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 of
these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is
provided on page 12 and page 13.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is GAAP operating cash flow reduced by capital expenditures
for property, plant and equipment. 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.
See Table 2 on page 2 for reconciliation of free cash flow to GAAP operating
cash flow.

Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely
from these forward-looking statements. Among these factors are risks related
to: (1) general conditions in the economy and our industry, including those

production quality issues, commercial airplane production rates, our ability
to successfully develop and certify new aircraft or new derivative aircraft,
and the ability of our aircraft to meet stringent performance and reliability
standards; (4) changing budget and appropriation levels and acquisition
priorities of the U.S. government, as well as significant delays in U.S.
government appropriations; (5) our dependence on our subcontractors and
suppliers, as well as the availability of highly skilled labor and raw
materials; (6) work stoppages or other labor disruptions; (7) competition
within our markets; (8) our non-U.S. operations and sales to non-U.S.
customers; (9) changes in accounting estimates; (10) realizing the anticipated
benefits of mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures/strategic alliances or
divestitures; (11) our dependence on U.S. government contracts; (12) our
reliance on fixed-price contracts; (13) our reliance on cost-type contracts;
(14) contracts that include in-orbit incentive payments; (15) unauthorized
access to our, our customers' and/or our suppliers' information and systems;
(16) potential business disruptions, including threats to physical security or
our information technology systems, extreme weather (including effects of
climate change) or other acts of nature, and pandemics or other public health
crises; (17) potential adverse developments in new or pending litigation
and/or government inquiries or investigations; (18) potential environmental
liabilities; (19) effects of climate change and legal, regulatory or market
responses to such change; (20) changes in our ability to obtain debt financing
on commercially reasonable terms, at competitive rates and in sufficient
amounts; (21) substantial pension and other postretirement benefit
obligations; (22) the adequacy of our insurance coverage; and (23) customer
and aircraft concentration in our customer financing portfolio.
