Growth (97): Sales and profits are climbing, and climbing faster than before.

Accruals (39): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (2): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

News

Latest BA news & analysis

Archer Guided to a $200 Million Quarterly Loss. It Has About $1.6 Billion.

The Motley Fool · 16 Aug 2026neutral

Archer guided to a third-quarter adjusted EBITDA loss of $170 million to $200 million, following a $177.1 million loss in the second quarter. The company held $1.56 billion in cash and short-term investments at the end of June, down about $400 million over six months.

Why it matters — A BA watcher would care because Archer is an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) air-taxi developer that relies on Boeing-linked partnerships and investments, so its cash burn and funding outlook could affect the broader aerospace ecosystem.

Archer Aviation Has $6.9 Million of Revenue. It's Buying a Boeing Business With More Than $200 Million.

The Motley Fool · 15 Aug 2026neutral

Archer Aviation is acquiring Insitu, a Boeing business with more than $200 million in annual revenue, compared with Archer's trailing-12-month revenue of $6.9 million. Archer will issue Boeing new stock equal to 19.75% of its shares outstanding before closing, leaving Boeing with roughly 16.5% of the company.

Why it matters — For Boeing watchers, the deal involves Boeing receiving a significant equity stake in Archer Aviation in exchange for divesting its Insitu drone business.

Boeing, RTX Agree To Interceptor Deal With Pentagon; Stocks Rise

Investors Business Daily · 14 Aug 2026positive

The Pentagon has reached an agreement with Boeing and RTX to increase production of components used in advanced interceptor missiles. Boeing shares rose about 1% following the news.

Why it matters — A new Pentagon agreement to expand interceptor missile component production could provide additional defense work for Boeing, which is relevant to BA watchers tracking its government contract pipeline.

Boeing's Wisk sale unlikely to kick off another divestment round

Reuters · 14 Aug 2026neutral

Boeing announced it is selling Wisk Aero, its air taxi business. Analysts view the sale as shedding a struggling, non-core unit that had become a distraction, rather than a signal of a broader breakup of the company.

Why it matters — The divestment of a non-core business could help Boeing focus on its turnaround efforts, which is relevant to watchers tracking the company's strategic direction.

Pentagon signs deals with Boeing, RTX to boost missile interceptor component production

Reuters · 14 Aug 2026positive

The Pentagon announced framework agreements with Boeing and RTX on Friday to increase production of components for SM-3 Block IIA and SM-3 Block IB missile interceptors.
