The Boeing Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this report have been prepared by management of The Boeing Company (herein referred to as “Boeing”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation are reflected in the interim financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto, included in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Standards Issued and Not Yet Implemented
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The standard will require lessees to report most leases as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, while lessor accounting will remain substantially unchanged. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for existing leases, whereby the new rules will be applied to the earliest year presented. We do not expect the new lease standard to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
We plan to adopt ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers effective January 1, 2018 and apply it retrospectively to all periods presented. This comprehensive new standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance and require revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding revenue and contracts with customers.
We expect adoption of the new standard will have a material impact on our income statement and balance sheet. We currently expect that most of our Defense, Space & Security (BDS) contracts that currently recognize revenue as deliveries are made or based on the attainment of performance milestones will recognize revenue under the new standard as costs are incurred. Certain military derivative aircraft contracts in our Commercial Airplane (BCA) business will also recognize revenue as costs are incurred. The new standard will not change the total amount of revenue recognized on these contracts, only accelerate the timing of when the revenue is recognized. We expect a corresponding acceleration in timing of cost of sales recognition for these contracts resulting in a decrease in Inventories from long-term contracts in progress upon adoption of the new standard.
We do not expect the new standard to affect revenue recognition or the use of program accounting for commercial airplane contracts in our BCA business. We will continue to recognize revenue for these contracts at the point in time when the customer accepts delivery of the airplane.
We have completed a preliminary assessment of the impact of adopting the new standard on previously reported 2016 and prior period results. Because revenue will be recognized under the new standard as costs are incurred for most of our defense and military derivative airplane contracts, approximately $10,000 of revenues and $1,000 of associated earnings will be accelerated into years ending prior to the January 1, 2016 effective date. Therefore, as of January 1, 2016, we expect to record a cumulative adjustment to increase retained earnings by approximately $1,000. We expect consolidated revenues previously reported in 2016 to decrease by approximately $1,000, primarily reflecting $2,000 of lower revenues on several defense contracts that currently recognize revenues as deliveries are made, partially offset by higher KC-46A Tanker revenues. These revenue changes are expected to reduce previously reported segment operating earnings by approximately $400. We expect the reduction in 2016 segment operating earnings to be offset by increases in unallocated pension income. We expect adoption will increase total assets and total liabilities

by approximately $20,000 primarily due to classifying certain advances from customers as liabilities under the new standard, whereas these advances were netted against inventory under existing Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). We expect the new standard to have no impact on cash flows reported in 2016. The impact of the new standard on our 2016 financial results may not be representative of the impact on our financial position and operating results in subsequent years.
We are continuing to analyze the impact of the new standard on the Company’s revenue contracts, comparing our current accounting policies and practices to the requirements of the new standard. The new standard requires additional detailed disclosures regarding the company’s contracts with customers, including disclosure of remaining unsatisfied performance obligations, in the first quarter 2018 which we are continuing to assess. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard in 2018 and recasting prior periods’ financial information.
Use of Estimates
Management makes assumptions and estimates to prepare financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Those assumptions and estimates directly affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Significant estimates for which changes in the near term are considered reasonably possible and that may have a material impact on the financial statements are disclosed in these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Contract accounting is used for development and production activities predominantly by BDS. Contract accounting involves a judgmental process of estimating total sales and costs for each contract resulting in the development of estimated cost of sales percentages. Changes in estimated revenues, cost of sales and the related effect on operating income are recognized using a cumulative catch-up adjustment which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a contract’s percent complete. Net cumulative catch-up adjustments to prior years' earnings, including reach-forward losses, across all contracts were as follows:

Note 2 – Earnings Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation method that determines earnings per share for common shares and participating securities. The undistributed earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities as if all earnings had been distributed during the period. Participating securities and common shares have equal rights to undistributed earnings.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by taking net earnings, less earnings available to participating securities, divided by the basic weighted average common shares outstanding.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by taking net earnings, less earnings available to participating securities, divided by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

Note 3 – Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rates were 27.5% and 28.7% for the six and three months ended June 30, 2017 and 21.9% and 51.1% for the same periods in the prior year. The year-over-year effective tax rate variances for both periods are primarily due to higher year-to-date and projected pre-tax earnings in 2017. In addition, higher share-based compensation tax benefits were recognized for the six-month period of 2017 compared with the prior year.
Federal income tax audits have been settled for all years prior to 2013. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently examining the 2013-2014 tax years. We are also subject to examination in major state and international jurisdictions for the 2001-2016 tax years. We believe appropriate provisions for all outstanding tax issues have been made for all jurisdictions and all open years.

The inventory balance was $120 (net of advances of $192 and $220) at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. See indemnifications to ULA in Note 9.
Included in inventories are capitalized precontract costs of $806 and $729 primarily related to KC-46A Tanker and C-17 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Commercial Aircraft Programs
At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, commercial aircraft programs inventory included the following amounts related to the 787 program: $32,047 and $32,501 of work in process (including deferred production costs of $26,461 and $27,308), $2,608 and $2,398 of supplier advances, and $3,390 and $3,625 of unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs. At June 30, 2017, $24,246 of 787 deferred production costs, unamortized tooling and other non-recurring costs are expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that have firm orders and $5,605 is expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that represent expected future orders.
At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, commercial aircraft programs inventory included $239 and $284 of unamortized tooling costs related to the 747 program. At June 30, 2017, $195 of unamortized tooling costs are expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that have firm orders and $44 is expected to be recovered from units included in the program accounting quantity that represent expected future orders. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, work in process inventory included a number of completed 747 aircraft that we expect to recover from future orders.
Commercial aircraft programs inventory included amounts credited in cash or other consideration (early issue sales consideration) to airline customers totaling $3,002 and $3,117 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

We determine a receivable is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect amounts due according to the original contractual terms. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we individually evaluated for impairment customer financing receivables of $56 and $55, of which $45 and $44 were determined to be impaired. We recorded no allowance for losses on these impaired receivables as the collateral values exceeded the carrying values of the receivables.
The adequacy of the allowance for losses is assessed quarterly. Three primary factors influencing the level of our allowance for losses on customer financing receivables are customer credit ratings, default rates and collateral values. We assign internal credit ratings for all customers and determine the creditworthiness of each customer based upon publicly available information and information obtained directly from our customers. Our rating categories are comparable to those used by the major credit rating agencies.
Our financing receivable balances by internal credit rating category are shown below:

At June 30, 2017, our allowance related to receivables with ratings of B, BB and BBB. We applied default rates that averaged 17.5%, 8.4% and 1.0%, respectively, to the exposure associated with those receivables.
Customer Financing Exposure
Customer financing is collateralized by security in the related asset. The value of the collateral is closely tied to commercial airline performance and overall market conditions and may be subject to reduced valuation with market decline. Declines in collateral values could result in asset impairments, reduced finance lease income, and an increase in the allowance for losses. Our customer financing collateral is concentrated in 747-8 and out-of-production aircraft. Generally, out-of-production aircraft have experienced greater collateral value declines than in-production aircraft.

Note 7 – Other Assets
Sea Launch
At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Other assets included $356 of receivables related to our former investment in the Sea Launch venture which became payable by certain Sea Launch partners following Sea Launch’s bankruptcy filing in June 2009. The net amounts owed to Boeing by each of the partners are as follows: S.P. Koroley Rocket and Space Corporation Energia of Russia (RSC Energia) – $223, PO Yuzhnoye Mashinostroitelny Zavod of Ukraine – $89 and KB Yuzhnoye of Ukraine – $44.
On February 1, 2013, we filed an action in the United States District Court for the Central District of California seeking reimbursement from the other Sea Launch partners. On May 12, 2016, the court issued a judgment in favor of Boeing.
In December 2016, we reached an agreement which we believe will enable us to recover the outstanding receivable balance from RSC Energia over the next several years. The agreement was subject to certain contingencies which were resolved during the first quarter of 2017. We continue to pursue collection efforts against the former Ukrainian partners in connection with the court judgment and continue to believe the partners have the financial wherewithal to pay and intend to pursue vigorously all of our rights and remedies. In the event we are unable to secure reimbursement from the Sea Launch partners, we could incur additional charges. Our current assessment as to the collectability of these receivables takes into account the current economic conditions in Russia and Ukraine, although we will continue to monitor the situation.

Spirit AeroSystems
As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Other assets included $143 of receivables related to indemnifications from Spirit AeroSystems, Inc. (Spirit) for costs incurred related to pension and retiree medical obligations of former Boeing employees who were subsequently employed by Spirit. During the fourth quarter of 2014, Boeing filed a complaint against Spirit in the Delaware Superior Court seeking to enforce our rights to indemnification and to recover from Spirit amounts incurred by Boeing for pension and retiree medical obligations. In the second quarter of 2017, the court ruled against Boeing and denied our claim. Boeing plans to appeal to the Delaware Supreme Court and we believe we have substantial arguments on appeal. We expect to fully recover from Spirit.

The liabilities recorded represent our best estimate or the low end of a range of reasonably possible costs expected to be incurred to remediate sites, including operation and maintenance over periods of up to 30 years. It is reasonably possible that we may incur charges that exceed these recorded amounts because of regulatory agency orders and directives, changes in laws and/or regulations, higher than expected costs and/or the discovery of new or additional contamination. As part of our estimating process, we develop a range of reasonably possible alternate scenarios that includes the high end of a range of reasonably possible cost estimates for all remediation sites for which we have sufficient information based on our experience and existing laws and regulations. There are some potential remediation obligations where the costs of remediation cannot be reasonably estimated. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the high end of the estimated range of reasonably possible remediation costs exceeded our recorded liabilities by $852 and $857.

Commercial Aircraft Commitments
In conjunction with signing definitive agreements for the sale of new aircraft (Sale Aircraft), we have entered into trade-in commitments with certain customers that give them the right to trade in used aircraft at a specified price upon the purchase of Sale Aircraft. The probability that trade-in commitments will be exercised is determined by using both quantitative information from valuation sources and qualitative information from

Table of Contents

other sources. The probability of exercise is assessed quarterly, or as events trigger a change, and takes into consideration the current economic and airline industry environments. Trade-in commitments, which can be terminated by mutual consent with the customer, may be exercised only during the period specified in the agreement, and require advance notice by the customer.
Trade-in commitment agreements at June 30, 2017 have expiration dates from 2017 through 2026. At June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016 total contractual trade-in commitments were $1,719 and $1,485. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we estimated that it was probable we would be obligated to perform on certain of these commitments with net amounts payable to customers totaling $107 and $126 and the fair value of the related trade-in aircraft was $107 and $126.
Financing Commitments
Financing commitments related to aircraft on order, including options and those proposed in sales campaigns, and refinancing of delivered aircraft, totaled $13,467 and $14,847 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The estimated earliest potential funding dates for these commitments as of June 30, 2017 are as follows:

As of June 30, 2017, all of these financing commitments related to customers we believe have less than investment-grade credit. We have concluded that no reserve for future potential losses is required for these financing commitments based upon the terms, such as collateralization and interest rates, under which funding would be provided.
Standby Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
We have entered into standby letters of credit and surety bonds with financial institutions primarily relating to the guarantee of our future performance on certain contracts. Contingent liabilities on outstanding letters of credit agreements and surety bonds aggregated approximately $3,858 and $4,701 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Commitments to ULA
We and Lockheed Martin Corporation have each committed to provide ULA with additional capital contributions in the event ULA does not have sufficient funds to make a required payment to us under an inventory supply agreement. As of June 30, 2017, ULA’s total remaining obligation to Boeing under the inventory supply agreement was $120. See Note 4.
F/A-18
At June 30, 2017, our backlog included 23 F/A-18 aircraft under contract with the U.S. Navy. We have begun work or authorized suppliers to begin working on aircraft beyond those already in backlog in anticipation of future orders. At June 30, 2017, we had $91 of capitalized precontract costs and $999 of potential termination liabilities to suppliers associated with F/A-18 aircraft not yet on order.

Table of Contents

United States Government Defense Environment Overview
In May 2017, the U.S. administration submitted its fiscal year 2018 budget request, which calls for funding the U.S. Department of Defense (U.S. DoD) base budget at a level that is $52 billion or 10% above the spending caps in the Budget Control Act of 2011 (The Act). However, The Act, which mandates limits on U.S. government discretionary spending, remains in effect through fiscal year 2021. As a result, continued budget uncertainty and the risk of future sequestration cuts will remain unless The Act is repealed or significantly modified by Congress.
In addition, there continues to be uncertainty with respect to program-level appropriations for the U.S. DoD and other government agencies, including the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), within the overall budgetary framework described above. Future budget cuts or investment priority changes could result in reductions, cancellations and/or delays of existing contracts or programs. Any of these impacts could have a material effect on the results of the Company’s operations, financial position and/or cash flows.
Funding timeliness also remains a risk. If Congress is unable to pass appropriations bills before the beginning of the next fiscal year on October 1, 2017, a government shutdown could result which may have impacts above and beyond those resulting from budget cuts, sequestration impacts or program-level appropriations. For example, requirements to furlough employees in the U.S. DoD or other government agencies could result in payment delays, impair our ability to perform work on existing contracts, and/or negatively impact future orders. Alternatively, Congress may fund fiscal year 2018 by passing one or more Continuing Resolutions; however, this could restrict the execution of certain program activities and delay new programs or competitions.
BDS Fixed-Price Development Contracts
Fixed-price development work is inherently uncertain and subject to significant variability in estimates of the cost and time required to complete the work. BDS fixed-price contracts with significant development work include Commercial Crew, U.S. Air Force (USAF) KC-46A Tanker, and commercial and military satellites. The operational and technical complexities of these contracts create financial risk, which could trigger termination provisions, order cancellations or other financially significant exposure. Changes to cost and revenue estimates could result in lower margins or material charges for reach-forward losses. For example, in the first quarter of 2017, we recorded an additional reach-forward loss of $142 on the KC-46A Tanker program. Moreover, this and our other fixed-price development programs remain subject to additional reach-forward losses if we experience further technical or quality issues, schedule delays, or increased costs. 
KC-46A Tanker
In 2011, we were awarded a contract from the USAF to design, develop, manufacture and deliver four next generation aerial refueling tankers. This Engineering, Manufacturing and Development (EMD) contract is a fixed-price incentive fee contract valued at $4.9 billion and involves highly complex designs and systems integration. In 2016, the USAF authorized low rate initial production (LRIP) lots for 7 and 12 aircraft valued at $2.8 billion. In January 2017, the USAF authorized an additional LRIP lot for 15 aircraft valued at $2.1 billion. At June 30, 2017, we had approximately $298 of capitalized precontract costs and $525 of potential termination liabilities to suppliers.
Recoverable Costs on Government Contracts  
Our final incurred costs for each year are subject to audit and review for allowability by the U.S. government, which can result in payment demands related to costs they believe should be disallowed. We work with the U.S. government to assess the merits of claims and where appropriate reserve for amounts disputed. If we are unable to satisfactorily resolve disputed costs, we could be required to record an earnings charge and/or provide refunds to the U.S. government.

Table of Contents

Russia/Ukraine
We continue to monitor political unrest involving Russia and Ukraine, where we and some of our suppliers source titanium products and/or have operations. A number of our commercial customers also have operations in Russia and Ukraine. To date, we have not experienced any significant disruptions to production or deliveries. Should suppliers or customers experience disruption, our production and/or deliveries could be materially impacted.
747 Program
Lower-than-expected demand for large commercial passenger and freighter aircraft have continued to drive market uncertainties, pricing pressures and fewer orders than anticipated. We are currently producing at a rate of 0.5 aircraft per month. The program accounting quantity includes aircraft scheduled to be produced through 2019. We continue to have a number of completed aircraft in inventory and we remain focused on obtaining additional orders and implementing cost-reduction efforts. We are currently evaluating several scenarios, including sales campaigns, that may determine how long we continue the 747 program. If we are unable to obtain sufficient orders and/or market, production and other risks cannot be mitigated, we could record additional losses that may be material. Depending on market conditions, it is reasonably possible that we could decide to end production of the 747.
787 Program
The 787 program continued to have near breakeven gross margins. The combination of production challenges, change incorporation on early build aircraft, schedule delays, customer and supplier impacts and changes to price escalation factors has created significant pressure on program profitability. We are continuing to monitor wide-body demand and if sufficient orders do not materialize, we may consider appropriate adjustments to planned production rates. If risks related to these challenges, together with risks associated with planned production rates and productivity improvements, supply chain management, or introducing or manufacturing the 787-10 derivative as scheduled cannot be mitigated, the program could record a reach-forward loss that may be material.
Note 9 – Arrangements with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
We enter into arrangements with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business, primarily in the form of guarantees.
The following table provides quantitative data regarding our third party guarantees. The maximum potential payments represent a “worst-case scenario,” and do not necessarily reflect amounts that we expect to pay. Estimated proceeds from collateral and recourse represent the anticipated values of assets we could liquidate or receive from other parties to offset our payments under guarantees. The carrying amount of liabilities represents the amount included in Accrued liabilities.

Indemnifications to ULA In 2006, we agreed to indemnify ULA through December 31, 2020 against potential non-recoverability and non-allowability of $1,360 of Boeing Delta launch program inventory included in contributed assets plus $1,860 of inventory subject to an inventory supply agreement which ends on March 31, 2021. Since inception, ULA has consumed $1,288 of the $1,360 of inventory that was contributed by us and has yet to consume $72. Under the inventory supply agreement, we have recorded revenues and cost of sales of $1,500 through June 30, 2017. ULA has made payments of $1,740 to us under the inventory supply agreement and we have made $48 of net indemnification payments to ULA.
We agreed to indemnify ULA against potential losses that ULA may incur in the event ULA is unable to obtain certain additional contract pricing from the USAF for four satellite missions. In 2009, ULA filed a complaint before the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) for a contract adjustment for the price of two of these missions, followed in 2011 by a subsequent notice of appeal with respect to a third mission. The USAF did not exercise an option for a fourth mission prior to the expiration of the contract. During the second quarter of 2016, the ASBCA ruled that ULA is entitled to additional contract pricing for each of the three missions and remanded to the parties to negotiate appropriate pricing. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the USAF appealed the ASBCA's ruling. In April 2017, the USAF withdrew its appeal. If ULA is ultimately unsuccessful in obtaining additional pricing, we may be responsible for an indemnification payment up to $261 and may record up to $277 in pre-tax losses associated with the three missions.
Potential payments for Other Delta contracts include $85 related to deferred support costs and $91 related to deferred production costs. In June 2011, the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) notified ULA that it had determined that $271 of deferred support costs are not recoverable under government contracts. In December 2011, the DCMA notified ULA of the potential non-recoverability of an additional $114 of deferred production costs. ULA and Boeing believe that all costs are recoverable and in November 2011, ULA filed a certified claim with the USAF for collection of deferred support and production costs. The USAF issued a final decision denying ULA’s certified claim in May 2012. On June 14, 2012, Boeing and ULA filed a suit in the Court of Federal Claims seeking recovery of the deferred support and production costs from the U.S. government. On November 9, 2012, the U.S. government filed an answer to our claim and asserted a counterclaim for credits that it alleges were offset by deferred support cost invoices. We believe that the U.S. government’s counterclaim is without merit, and have filed an answer challenging it on multiple grounds. The litigation is in the discovery phase, and the Court has not yet set a trial date. If, contrary to our belief, it is determined that some or all of the deferred support or production costs are not recoverable, we could be required to record pre-tax losses and make indemnification payments to ULA for up to $317 of the costs questioned by the DCMA.
Other Indemnifications In conjunction with our sales of Electron Dynamic Devices, Inc. and Rocketdyne Propulsion and Power businesses and our BCA facilities in Wichita, Kansas and Tulsa and McAlester, Oklahoma, we agreed to indemnify, for an indefinite period, the buyers for costs relating to pre-closing environmental conditions and certain other items. We are unable to assess the potential number of future claims that may be asserted under these indemnifications, nor the amounts thereof (if any). As a result, we cannot estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnities and therefore, no liability has been recorded. To the extent that claims have been made under these indemnities and/or are probable and reasonably estimable, liabilities associated with these indemnities are included in the environmental liability disclosure in Note 8.
Credit Guarantees We have issued credit guarantees where we are obligated to make payments to a guaranteed party in the event that the original lessee or debtor does not make payments or perform certain specified services. Generally, these guarantees have been extended on behalf of guaranteed parties with less than investment-grade credit and are collateralized by certain assets. Current outstanding credit guarantees expire through 2036.

Note 10 – Debt
On February 16, 2017, we issued $900 of fixed rate senior notes consisting of $300 due March 1, 2022 that bear an annual interest rate of 2.125%, $300 due March 1, 2027 that bear an annual interest rate of 2.8%, and $300 due March 1, 2047 that bear an annual interest rate of 3.65%. The notes are unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The net proceeds of the issuance totaled $872, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses.

Required pension contributions under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, as well as rules governing funding of our non-US pension plans, are expected to be minimal in 2017. We plan to make contributions to our pension plans during the third quarter of $500 in cash and $3,500 in Boeing common stock. These contributions would exceed our previously announced plan to contribute approximately $500 to our pension plans in 2017.

Note 12 – Share-Based Compensation and Other Compensation Arrangements
Restricted Stock Units
On February 27, 2017, we granted to our executives 523,835 restricted stock units (RSUs) as part of our long-term incentive program with a grant date fair value of $178.72 per unit. The RSUs granted under this program will vest and settle in common stock (on a one-for-one basis) on the third anniversary of the grant date.
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
On February 27, 2017, we granted to our executives 492,273 performance-based restricted stock units (PBRSUs) as part of our long-term incentive program with a grant date fair value of $190.17 per unit. Compensation expense for the award is recognized over the three-year performance period based upon the grant date fair value estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. The model used the following assumptions: expected volatility of 21.37% based upon historical stock volatility, a risk-free interest rate of 1.46%, and no expected dividend yield because the units earn dividend equivalents.
Performance Awards
On February 27, 2017, we granted to our executives performance awards as part of our long-term incentive program with a payout based on the achievement of financial goals for the three-year period ending December 31, 2019. At June 30, 2017, the minimum payout amount is $0 and the maximum amount we could be required to pay out is $360.

Note 14 – Derivative Financial Instruments
Cash Flow Hedges
Our cash flow hedges include foreign currency forward contracts and commodity purchase contracts. We use foreign currency forward contracts to manage currency risk associated with certain transactions, specifically forecasted sales and purchases made in foreign currencies. Our foreign currency contracts hedge

Table of Contents

forecasted transactions through 2023. We use commodity derivatives, such as fixed-price purchase commitments to hedge against potentially unfavorable price changes for items used in production. Our commodity contracts hedge forecasted transactions through 2020.
Fair Value Hedges
Interest rate swaps under which we agree to pay variable rates of interest are designated as fair value hedges of fixed-rate debt. The net change in fair value of the derivatives and the hedged items is reported in Boeing Capital interest expense.
Derivative Instruments Not Receiving Hedge Accounting Treatment
We have entered into agreements to purchase and sell aluminum to address long-term strategic sourcing objectives and international business requirements. These agreements are derivative instruments for accounting purposes. The quantities of aluminum in these agreements offset and are priced at prevailing market prices. We also hold certain foreign currency forward contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

Based on our portfolio of cash flow hedges, we expect to reclassify losses of $42 (pre-tax) out of Accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings during the next 12 months. Ineffectiveness related to our hedges recognized in Other income was insignificant for the six and three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
We have derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features. For foreign exchange contracts with original maturities of at least five years, our derivative counterparties could require settlement if we default on our five-year credit facility. For certain commodity contracts, our counterparties could require collateral posted in an amount determined by our credit ratings. The fair value of foreign exchange and commodity contracts that have credit-risk-related contingent features that are in a net liability position at June 30, 2017 was $27. At June 30, 2017, there was no collateral posted related to our derivatives.

Note 15 – Fair Value Measurements
The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs. The following table presents our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy.

Money market funds, available-for-sale debt investments and equity securities are valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices or broker/dealer quotes of identical or comparable instruments.
Derivatives include foreign currency, commodity and interest rate contracts. Our foreign currency forward contracts are valued using an income approach based on the present value of the forward rate less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Commodity derivatives are valued using an income approach based on the present value of the commodity index prices less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. The fair value of our interest rate swaps is derived from a discounted cash flow analysis based on the terms of the contract and the interest rate curve.
Certain assets have been measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The following table presents the nonrecurring losses recognized for the six months ended June 30 due to long-lived asset impairment and the fair value and asset classification of the related assets as of the impairment date:
