CHICAGO, Jan. 31 -- The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA) fourth quarter net
earnings more than doubled to $989 million, or $1.29 per share, from $460
million, or $0.58 per share, a year ago (Table 1). Adjusted earnings per
share*, removing effects of tax benefits and discontinued businesses, rose 57
percent to $1.16 per share.
Boeing boosted its 2007 earnings per share guidance to between $4.55 and
$4.75, and set its 2008 guidance at between $5.55 and $5.75, reflecting
expected strong revenue growth and expanding margins across its businesses.
The company's 2007 R&D forecast is unchanged and R&D spending is expected to
decline in 2008.
"2006 was a very good year for Boeing. We achieved new records in
revenue, cash flow and backlog, and overcame some meaningful challenges by
focusing on improving productivity and meeting our commitments," said Boeing
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Jim McNerney. "This focus on
performance gives us the confidence to set high expectations for 2007 and
2008."
Boeing's fourth-quarter revenue rose 26 percent to $17.5 billion on
double-digit growth in its Commercial Airplanes and Integrated Defense Systems
businesses. The 57 percent increase in fourth-quarter adjusted EPS* was due
to strong business performance, partially offset by an additional charge on
the Airborne Early Warning & Control (AEW&C) program. Operating cash flow for
the quarter was $2.4 billion driven by strong earnings growth and a large
volume of commercial airplane orders (Table 2).
For 2006, the company's reported earnings totaled $2.85 per share, down
from $3.20, while revenue rose 15 percent to $61.5 billion. Adjusted EPS* for
the year grew 51 percent to $3.62 per share. Record operating cash flow of
$7.5 billion provided outstanding liquidity to the company, while free cash
flow* increased to $5.8 billion.

(1) Includes Global Settlement payment of $615 million and Connexion

2006.
Reflecting a second consecutive year of record commercial airplane orders,
Boeing's backlog at year-end also reached a record level. The backlog rose to
$250 billion, up 22 percent for the year.
Cash and investments in marketable securities totaled $9.3 billion at year
end, up from $8.2 billion at the end of the third quarter (Table 3).
Principal uses of cash during the quarter included $444 million for share
repurchases, retirement of $583 million of maturing debt, and planned
investment increases in Boeing's core businesses.
The company spent $2.0 billion repurchasing 25.0 million shares during the
year. This leaves $2.4 billion remaining available under the current
repurchase authorization. During 2006, the company also contributed
$526 million to its pension plans and retired approximately $1 billion of
maturing debt.
In December, Boeing's board of directors increased the quarterly dividend
by 17 percent to $0.35 per share, or $1.40 annually, based on the company's
strong operating performance and outlook, excellent cash generation and
commitment to delivering value to shareholders.

Segment Results
Commercial Airplanes
Boeing Commercial Airplanes (BCA) fourth-quarter revenues increased
37 percent to $7.6 billion driven by a 41 percent increase in airplane
deliveries and higher services revenue (Table 4). BCA operating earnings
doubled to $665 million. Margins expanded to 8.7 percent due to higher
operating leverage and productivity improvements, partially offset by planned
R&D spending increases and the absence of supplier development cost-sharing
payments.
For the year, BCA deliveries rose 37 percent to 398 airplanes and revenue
rose 33 percent to $28.5 billion. Operating earnings grew 91 percent to
$2.7 billion as margins reached 9.6 percent.

Contractual backlog rose to a record $174 billion, increasing 40 percent
during the year to more than six times current annual BCA revenues. BCA
booked 320 gross orders during the quarter and a record 1,050 during the year.
Net orders for 2006 were a record 1,044 airplanes. For the second consecutive
year, the 737 program achieved a record tally, bringing in 729 net orders.
Boeing twin-aisle airplanes had another strong order year, with the 747
program achieving its highest order total since 1990.
The 787 Dreamliner program has won 452 firm orders from 36 customers since
program launch in 2004. Important milestones were achieved during the fourth
quarter, including validation of the manufacturing plan which culminated in a
"virtual rollout" in December. The program continues to address pressures
with respect to weight and supplier implementation. Flight testing of the
Dreamliner begins this year, with entry into service scheduled for May 2008.
Boeing continues to expect the 787 will be delivered on time and in accord
with its contractual obligations.
Integrated Defense Systems
Boeing Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) revenues increased 18 percent
during the quarter to a record $9.7 billion on higher volume across all
segments (Table 5). Operating margins were 10.6 percent, driven by strong
execution and productivity improvements, offset by revised cost estimates on
the AEW&C program totaling $274 million which reduced fourth-quarter IDS
operating margins by 2.8 points.
IDS revenues grew 4 percent in 2006 to a record $32.4 billion driven by
growth in Precision Engagement & Mobility Systems and Support Systems.
Operating margins were 9.3 percent due to strong performance across IDS's
balanced portfolio of programs, after a 2.4 point reduction for AEW&C. In
2005, IDS operating margins were 12.6 percent, including a 1.9 point benefit
from gains on divestitures.

(1) Reflects reductions of 2.8 points in the quarter and 2.4 points for
the full year due to increased costs on AEW&C.
Precision Engagement & Mobility Systems revenue grew 15 percent to
$4.3 billion for the quarter on higher deliveries and volume on the F-15 and
Chinook programs. Overall program performance was strong, yet operating
margins were 6.9 percent for the quarter due to the charge mentioned above,
which reduced PE&MS operating margins by 6.3 points.
Network & Space Systems achieved significant milestones on several key
development programs including Future Combat Systems (FCS), Family of Beyond-
line-of-sight Terminals (FAB-T), Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD),
Airborne Laser and proprietary programs. The company also completed the
United Launch Alliance joint venture during the quarter. Fourth-quarter
revenues increased 19 percent to $3.4 billion driven in part by a new Delta IV
launch capability services contract. Operating margins increased to
13.7 percent in the quarter driven by strong earnings on FCS and Delta IV,
further boosted by a post-closing adjustment on the divestiture of Electron
Dynamic Devices, Inc.
Support Systems again generated strong profits on its broad portfolio of
services and logistics programs. Revenues for the quarter increased
22 percent to $1.9 billion while operating earnings increased 16 percent to
$262 million resulting in 13.5 percent operating margins. Results were driven
by higher volume on integrated logistics programs; international support
programs; and maintenance, modification and upgrade programs such as AC-130
and KC-10.
IDS' backlog at quarter-end increased to $75.7 billion. For the year,
backlog declined 6 percent as progress continued on large multi-year
contracts. Contractual backlog grew 16 percent during the year to
$42.3 billion while unobligated backlog declined to $33.4 billion.
Boeing Capital Corporation
Boeing Capital Corporation (BCC) continued to deliver strong financial
performance while reducing portfolio risk (Table 6). For the quarter, BCC
delivered pre-tax earnings of $37 million driven by continued strong financing
portfolio performance and aircraft finance restructurings. BCC's portfolio
balance at the end of the fourth quarter was $8.0 billion, down from
$8.2 billion at the end of the third quarter and $9.2 billion in the fourth
quarter of 2005 on normal portfolio run-off, asset sales and depreciation.
Despite the smaller portfolio size, revenues for the fourth quarter increased
slightly to $241 million due to aircraft finance restructurings. For the
year, BCC revenues grew 6 percent to $1.0 billion, and pre-tax income
increased 25 percent to a record $291 million.
BCC contributed $60 million in cash dividends to the company during the
quarter and $344 million in cash for the year. BCC recorded leverage of
5.0-to-1, as measured by the ratio of debt-to-equity.

Additional Information
The "Other" segment consists primarily of Boeing Engineering, Operations
and Technology and the Connexion business, as well as certain results related
to the consolidation of all business units. As previously disclosed, the
company decided to exit its Connexion business which resulted in a pre-tax
charge of $40 million in the quarter, or $0.03 per share. Other segment
losses from operations grew to $93 million in the fourth quarter, up from
$73 million in the same period last year.
Pre-tax (non-cash) pension expense for the quarter was $221 million, down
from $451 million in the same period of 2005 which included pension settlement
and curtailment expenses related to the sale of our Rocketdyne operations.
Unallocated share-based-plans expense was $140 million, down 23 percent from
the same period of 2005 due to changes in the company's long-term compensation
plans implemented at the beginning of 2006.
Boeing's pension plans are 101 percent funded on a projected benefit
obligation basis, and cash contribution requirements for the pension plans are
expected to be modest over the next few years. As previously disclosed,
shareholders' equity was reduced by approximately $6.5 billion at the end of
the year to reflect implementation of new accounting rules for pensions and
other post-retirement benefits (SFAS 158).
Outlook
The company expects continued growth in 2007 and 2008 that reflects strong
performance from its core businesses, higher commercial airplane deliveries,
leveling R&D, and companywide productivity gains (Table 7).
Boeing's revenue guidance for 2007 is now between $64.5 billion and
$65 billion, reflecting completion of the United Launch Alliance transaction.
For 2008, the company expects revenues between $71 and $72 billion. The 2007
earnings per share guidance is being raised to between $4.55 and $4.75 per
share. EPS guidance for 2008 is set at between $5.55 and $5.75 per share.
Operating cash flow for 2007 is now expected to be greater than $4 billion, as
portions of cash flow previously expected in 2007 accelerated into the
$7.5 billion achieved in 2006. Cash flow for 2008 is expected to again exceed
$7 billion.
Commercial Airplanes' 2007 delivery guidance remains 440 to 445 airplanes
and is completely sold out. Revenue guidance for 2007 remains between
$32.5 and $33 billion, and operating margin guidance remains at greater than
10 percent. Airplane deliveries in 2008 are expected to rise to between
515 and 520 airplanes and are essentially sold out. Commercial Airplanes'
revenue in 2008 is expected to grow to between $39 billion and $40 billion
accompanied by margin expansion to approximately 11 percent. The company
expects airplane deliveries in 2009 to be higher than in 2008.
IDS revenue guidance for 2007 is approximately $31 billion, and now
excludes approximately $1 billion of launch business revenue due to the change
to equity method accounting following completion of the ULA joint venture.
Operating margins are expected to expand to approximately 11 percent in 2007.
For 2008, IDS expects revenue to grow to between $32 billion and $33 billion,
with operating margins of approximately 11 percent.
Boeing's research and development forecast for 2007 is unchanged at
between $3.2 billion and $3.4 billion. Research and development spending is
expected to decline in 2008 to between $2.8 billion and $3.0 billion. Annual
capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $1.6 billion in 2007 and
in 2008.
The company's non-cash pension expense is expected to be approximately
$1.1 billion for 2007 and approximately $0.9 billion for 2008. The company
expects pension expense to continue to decline after the guidance period with
2009 pension expense likely to be approximately half of the 2008 level.
Discretionary cash funding of Boeing's pension plans is expected to be
approximately $500 million in each of 2007 and 2008, though the company will
continue to evaluate making additional discretionary contributions to its
pension plans.

Non-GAAP Measure Disclosure
Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles) measures (indicated by an asterisk *) used in this report provide
investors with important perspectives into the company's ongoing business
performance. The company does not intend for the information to be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measure. Other companies
may define the measure differently. The following definitions are provided:
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is defined as GAAP operating cash flow less 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 internally to assess both business performance and overall
liquidity. Table 2 provides a reconciliation between GAAP operating cash flow
and free cash flow.
Adjusted Earnings per Share
Adjusted earnings per share is defined as GAAP diluted earnings per share
adjusted for certain significant charges or credits. Management believes
adjusted earnings per share are important to understanding the company's on-
going operations and provide additional insights into underlying business
performance. Significant charges or credits are described in the attachments
to this release which provide reconciliations between GAAP earnings per share
and adjusted earnings per share.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted Earnings Per Share
(Unaudited)
In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company also
discloses non-GAAP results that exclude certain significant charges or
credits that are important to an understanding of the company's ongoing
operations. The company provides reconciliations of its non-GAAP
financial reporting to the most comparable GAAP reporting. The company
believes that discussion of results excluding certain significant charges
or credits provides additional insights into underlying business
performance. Adjusted earnings per share is not a measure recognized
under GAAP. The determination of significant charges or credits may not
be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and
may vary from quarter to quarter.
