Wed Apr 09 18:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Boeing Beats Q1 Delivery Estimates, Stock Rebounds
**Chicago, IL – April 17, 2024** – Boeing (BA) exceeded analysts’ expectations for first-quarter aircraft deliveries, reporting 130 commercial planes and 26 defense and space craft delivered. This surpasses both the 2023 Q1 figures and analyst predictions of 125 commercial and 20 defense/space deliveries. The strong performance follows a period of reduced production due to safety investigations and a labor strike last year.
The increased output signals a recovery for the aerospace giant, although challenges remain. Jefferies analysts project Boeing will deliver 526 commercial aircraft in 2024, a 51% increase year-over-year. However, the company faces an upcoming trial or plea deal regarding alleged government fraud related to safety standards, and recent tariff increases have impacted its stock price. Despite Friday’s stock hitting a two-year low, Boeing shares rose nearly 3% Tuesday following the positive delivery news, becoming the second-biggest gainer in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Boeing will release its full first-quarter earnings report on April 23rd.
