Boeing narrowed its third-quarter loss and reported new certification and defense milestones on October 27, but commercial-aircraft profitability remained under pressure. The company reported the figures in its third-quarter results release.

The Lang & Schwarz quote was 157.21 euros for Boeing stock at 16:08 CET on Monday, November 2, 2026. The previous report showed 153.87 euros at 10:51 CET on the same day, producing a 2.17 percent report-to-report difference; this is separate from a daily Xetra comparison.

What changed since the last report

Boeing said the 737-7 received amended type certification from the Federal Aviation Administration and the 737-10 achieved certification in October. The U.S. Navy also selected the company to design, build and deliver the F/A-XX next-generation fighter aircraft.

For the quarter ended September 30, revenue rose 4 percent year over year to 24.188 billion US dollars. GAAP net loss narrowed to 116 million US dollars from 5.339 billion US dollars a year earlier, while operating cash flow reached 1.496 billion US dollars and free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, was 464 million US dollars.

Commercial recovery remains the key test

Commercial Airplanes generated 10.720 billion US dollars of revenue, down 3 percent year over year, and posted a 697 million US dollar operating loss. Its operating margin was negative 6.5 percent, reflecting delivery mix, projected production-rate costs and higher estimated supply-chain costs.

The unit delivered 161 aircraft and booked 300 net orders. Boeing said the 737 program was progressing toward a stabilized production rate of 47 aircraft per month, while the 777X remained on track for first delivery in 2027.

Defense, Space & Security revenue increased 15 percent to 7.935 billion US dollars, including a 252 million US dollar gain from the sale of HRL Laboratories. Global Services revenue rose 4 percent to 5.574 billion US dollars, with operating earnings increasing 9 percent to 1.019 billion US dollars.
