“Boeing Soars as CFO Declares Recovery “In Full Force,” Predicts Positive Free Cash Flow in 2025”🚨🚨🚨

BoeingBA $199.75 (7.13%) is rallying sharply on Tuesday after CFO Jay Malave delivered one of the company’s most optimistic financial outlooks in years, telling investors that Boeing’s long-awaited rebound “is in full force.” The stock surged more than 6% in premarket trading and is on track for one of its strongest single-day performances in the past two years.

Speaking at a transportation conference, Malave said Boeing expects positive free cash flow next year, marking a pivotal milestone after years of financial turbulence.

“For next year, we absolutely expect to grow year over year in cash flow,” Malave said. “I expect free cash flow to grow and … be in the low positive single digits.”

The upbeat forecast comes just months after Boeing turned cash flow positive in the third quarter — its first positive quarter since the door plug blowout in early 2024, an incident that intensified scrutiny around the company’s production and safety practices.

If Tuesday’s stock momentum holds through the close, it would mark only the sixth time in the past two years that Boeing shares finished up more than 5% in a single session — underscoring the significance of the market’s reaction.

A Long Climb Out of Deep Cash Holes

Boeing’s financial recovery has been slow and hard-fought. The company has spent years digging out from multiple crises, including:

• The COVID-19 pandemic, which choked global travel and aircraft demand

• The prolonged 737 Max groundings

• Production and safety struggles that resurfaced after last year’s door plug incident

Still, quarterly free cash flow has been gradually improving through 2024 and 2025, signaling that Boeing’s turnaround efforts are gaining traction.

With a more stable production cadence and improving operational efficiency, the company now sees 2025 as a turning point — and investors clearly like the direction.
