“As we've said, we will build other MAX models for affected customers and don't expect an impact on our planned production rates with the financial impact of this revised time line reflected in the program margins this quarter.”

In context

“o make adjustments as needed and manage supplier by supplier based on inventory levels. Over the past year, our buffer inventory has grown to promote stability across our production system. As production continues to stabilize and rates increase over time, we plan to deliberately return buffer inventory to more normal levels. The quarter ended with about 20 737-8s built prior to 2023, down 15 from 1Q, which are for customers in China. We now expect to complete the rework on these airplanes and shut down the shadow factory in the third quarter. On the 7 and 10, inventory levels were stable at approximately 35 airplanes. As Kelly said, we continue to mature the certification path for these programs. The engine anti-ice solution has taken us longer, and we now expect certification next year. As we've said, we will build other MAX models for affected customers and don't expect an impact on our planned production rates with the financial impact of this revised time line reflected in the program margins this quarter. On the 787, we delivered 24 airplanes in the quarter as the program continued to demonstrate improved stability. After stabilizing at 5 per month and completing a successful Capstone review in the quarter, the production rate is now at 7 per month, and the program is focused on stabilizing the production system prior to future rate increases. 2Q ended with about 15 airplanes in inventory built prior to 2023, down 5 from 1Q. The rework on these remaining airplanes is complete, and we expect to deliver about half of these units this year and the other half in 2026, in line with our customers' fleet planning requirements. Finally, on 777X, flight testing activities with the FAA continue to progress, and we remain focused on the work ahead to deliver the airplane next year. 777X inventory was”
