Boeing to Sell at Least $10 Billion in Shares to Plug Cash Drain
By Wall Street Journal: Under the shelf registration, Boeing is expected to pursue a stock offering that raises around $10 billion, according to people familiar with the matter. A strike by Boeing’s largest union is exacerbating financial woes at the jet maker, which last turned a profit in 2018. Its operations had been burning through about $1 billion a month before the strike. Boeing ended September with $10.3 billion in cash and securities, close to the minimum amount the company has said it needs to operate. The new $10 billion credit agreement is in addition to about $10 billion in existing, untapped revolving credit agreements. Boeing has $45 billion in net debt. “These are two prudent steps to support the company’s access to liquidity,” Boeing said in a statement. Boeing shares, which began the year around $250, were little changed in premarket trading near $150.
