Boeing Faces Financial Turmoil, Plans Major Borrowing to Stay Afloat

Published on

Boeing’s financial crisis is deepening as it faces significant cash shortages due to a prolonged strike and years of safety and operational issues. According to a report by Chris Isidore for CNN, Boeing is seeking to raise tens of billions of dollars from major banks and Wall Street.

The company plans to borrow $10 billion from a consortium of banks and raise an additional $25 billion through stock and debt sales, with the borrowing being part of this larger sum. Boeing’s core operating losses have exceeded $33 billion in the past six years, and production has nearly halted due to a month-long strike involving 33,000 members of the International Association of Machinists.

Talks between Boeing and the union have stalled, and no further negotiations are planned.
