Question · Q3 2025
Myles Alexander Walton asked about the projected negative cash flow for the 777X program in 2026, how it compares to 2025, and the anticipated timeline for the program to achieve a neutral cash flow position.
Answer
EVP and CFO Jay Malave stated that the 777X program is expected to face a $2 billion headwind in 2026 compared to prior expectations, with overall absolute cash usage potentially higher. He anticipates the program will get closer to neutral cash flow in 2028 and become positive in 2029, driven by improving payments from aircraft deliveries and advances.
