It was obviously an ordsprog

It was obviously an excellent quarter. They're starting to see real leverage in commercial airplanes, both in terms of orders and manufacturing initiatives that are helping margins.

We are starting to act on it. It roughly says tanker recapitalization is a good thing, that we ought to seek a commercial derivative, and that there are a number of commercial airplanes out there that are suitable.

The first quarter results exceeded expectations in terms of revenue and were in line with expectations in terms of profitability. Gross margins are improving and were 13.4% in the first quarter 2006 compared to 10.8% in the 4th quarter 2005 and 13.6% in the same quarter in the prior year.

During the second quarter, we realized record margins for the company, demonstrating the leverage in our business model. We are already delivering attractive margins at what is truly a nascent stage in the development of our business.

The orders this year are ... an endorsement by the airlines of the world. What's being validated here is the Boeing Commercial Airplanes strategy for the last six years. That's the incredible story of 2005.

Gross margins improved for the fourth consecutive quarter and are up 13 percentage points from the same quarter in the prior year, operating expenses declined sequentially and we significantly reduced our cash burn by $14 million compared to the prior quarter. Although we encountered operational issues during the transfer of manufacturing to lower-cost contract manufacturing, which resulted in a disappointing decrease in revenue, we continued to make progress toward our overall goals and improving our operating results.

We are always on the lookout for interesting initiatives that leverage technology to get people involved. Maybe we're not looking in the right places . . . but I haven't seen another approach exactly like it. If this works, obviously, we would be interested in helping expand it beyond Colorado.

U.S. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention. Corporate Profits: Outlook And Credit Implications. Up until now, this has been subdued by strong corporate liquidity positions, but with manufacturing activity expected to rev up (as hinted by the fairly strong ISM manufacturing numbers and orders growth) and margins of slack in the economy set to diminish, strong growth in capital expenditures will be needed. In turn, this should raise external borrowing needs.

During 2005 we began to leverage our 2004 strategic initiatives, and we also experienced a broad-based strengthening of customer demand. Our fourth quarter results reflect solid unit growth in strategic product areas, a richer product mix, a firmer pricing environment, and enhanced operating leverage in our newer factories.

We do expect relatively flat margins in the cable business going forward, but I think there's some potential leverage there in terms of pricing increases and driving the penetration of some of our new products.

The trend in orders is actually accelerating. It shows manufacturing in on firm footing in terms of inventories and eventually hiring.

I think all of us on Wall Street were misled not only by the company's first quarter guidance, but also by fact back in the fourth quarter, their North American margins were disappointing and terrible. I think there's real strength here, but a lot of good things were concentrated in the first quarter.

We delivered another excellent quarter with strength in all areas of the business. Our strong operating results this quarter were driven by increased revenue growth, improved capacity utilization, favorable product mix and the timing of our spending initiatives.

I think Boeing has a real advantage the market hasn't fully appreciated which is the diversification initiatives in terms of service and in terms of trying to understand how to better appeal to customers.

New products currently represent 33 percent of total sales, up from 30 percent last quarter and up from 20 percent in the same quarter a year ago. I am also pleased with our continued manufacturing efficiencies and solid financial management which contributed to improved gross and operating margins.
