The number almost nobody led with: core operating earnings were $1 million on $24.56B of revenue — a 0.0% core operating margin. Free cash flow turned positive at $631M, but management attributed it to 'favorable working capital within the year': first-half advances and progress billings rose $4.66B (customer pre-payments, a liability) while inventory grew $3.86B, and six-month free cash flow is still NEGATIVE $823M. Segments: Commercial Airplanes $11.75B revenue at a -2.7% margin (lost $322M); Defense, Space & Security $7.48B at -0.2% (lost $15M); Global Services $5.34B at 18.1% (earned $968M) — so ~78% of revenue produces no operating profit and one segment carries the company. Real progress: the FAA capstone review cleared the 737 to 47/month (from a 38/month cap), a second 737 line activated in Everett in July, MAX 7 and MAX 10 certification flight testing is complete, and the 777X received TIA 4B — but first deliveries for all three are 2027 and Air Force One is 2028. Backlog hit a record $715B (6,200+ jets). Debt fell $8.4B to $45.9B, but that was funded by drawing down $5.7B of short-term investments plus $3.7B of cash — largely proceeds from selling Jeppesen/ForeFlight to Thoma Bravo for $10.55B — not by operations. Total equity is just $6.1B against $165.9B of assets.
