Boeing has obtained the greatest support from analysts since 2022 after the manufacturer recently received "the green light" for the anticipated certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of its 737 Max 7 model, according to the consensus forecasts from "Bloomberg" consulted by Europa Press.
In detail, the "buy" recommendations are at the highest level in relative terms, with 84.4% of the total and a net balance of 27 favorable recommendations, compared to only five analysts who opt for the "hold" recommendation, with no sell suggestions.
This percentage constitutes the largest proportion since 2022, when 86.4% of experts advised "buying" shares of the American aerospace manufacturer.
The certification of the 737 Max 7 represents a decisive step for Boeing's production, culminating a process of nearly ten years that was marked by two fatal accidents and various quality issues.
The next milestone for the company is to achieve the "approval" for the Max 10, the larger version with capacity for 230 passengers, which faces the A321neo in the market, the most demanded aircraft from Airbus.
Between April and June, the 777X program also advanced after the FAA authorized the start of certification test flights under the Type Inspection Authorization 4B. Boeing maintains its forecasts to make the first delivery of this model in 2027.
In the markets, the manufacturer closed yesterday's trading session with a slight decline of 0.4%, down to $199.7 per share. So far this year, its shares have accumulated a revaluation of +2.9%, while in the last 12 months they have recorded a drop of -0.34%.
Half-year results and delivery forecasts
At the end of July, Boeing presented its accounts for the first half, in which it reported a 32% reduction in net losses, down to $435 million (€382 million), supported by an increase to 314 deliveries of commercial aircraft, its best record since 2018.
"I am very satisfied with the progress our team is making in executing our plan. Our operations are more stable and key certification programs are on track," said its CEO, Kelly Ortberg, at that time.
Nevertheless, it also admitted that there is still "much work to be done" during the second half of the year, although it emphasized that the current momentum continues to take Boeing "in the right direction."
For this 2026, the company maintains its annual target unchanged, which involves increasing deliveries by around 10% compared to the previous year, which would mean approximately 660 aircraft delivered.
