According to estimates from the Anderson Economic Group, the strike has cost an estimated $9.66 billion in combined losses. CEO Patrick Anderson joined Josh Lipton on "Asking for a Trend" to break down the striking details.
Loss of Earnings: Boeing’s Biggest Hurdle
One of the most significant portions of the loss is Boeing’s earnings. Anderson estimates that Boeing has lost around $5.5 billion in earnings. This financial strain is flowing through to the company’s shareholders and is a primary reason why Boeing is seeking an additional $19 billion through a share sale.
This figures makes this Boeing strike the most costly crisis of 2024 so far, according to the Anderson Economic Group– a shocking reflection of the long-term impact of labor disputes on a major corporation.
Searching for Capital: Boeing’s Share Sale Plan
Boeing has turned to a creative solution to manage its current financial challenges. The company has planned to raise $19 billion through a share sale. This move is aimed at maintaining the company’s credit rating and providing the much-needed capital to continue operations, especially as the strike enters its seventh week.
The Road Ahead
With the strike stretching across weeks, Boeing faces a daunting task: managing financial strain and staying afloat as negotiations between workers and management continue. The additional $19 billion in capital will play a crucial role in navigating these turbulent waters and ensuring the company’s long-term stability.
