Boeing is currently facing significant financial difficulties due to a variety of factors. These include production issues, labor disputes, and natural disasters. As a result, the company's industrial capacity utilization has decreased. Preliminary quarterly figures indicate projected sales of $17.8 billion, with an expected loss per share of around $10.

Rating agencies are closely monitoring the situation and there is a possibility of credit rating downgrades. In response to these challenges, Boeing is considering a substantial capital increase of up to $25 billion. Additionally, the company has obtained an additional $10 billion credit line. Despite these difficulties, Boeing is in talks with Etihad Airways regarding potential major orders for long-haul aircraft. This could significantly boost Boeing's order books and increase investor confidence.

Analysts remain optimistic about Boeing's future and predict a potential recovery in the coming months. The announcement of planned capital measures has been well-received by the markets, as evidenced by a narrowing of yield spreads on existing bonds.
