The Boeing Company and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions)

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this report have been prepared by The Boeing Company and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation are reflected in the interim financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2004, 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 and notes thereto included in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform with current reporting.

 

Note 2 – Standards Issued and Not Yet Implemented

 

In January 2004, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Staff Position (FSP) No. 106-1, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 was issued. FSP No. 106-1 permits the deferral of recognizing the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act) in the accounting for post-retirement health care plans until authoritative guidance is issued on the accounting for the federal subsidy provided by the Act or until certain other events requiring plan remeasurement. We have elected the deferral provided by this FSP and are evaluating the magnitude of the potential favorable impact, if any, of the federal subsidy provided by the Act on our results of operations and financial position. The authoritative guidance on the accounting for the federal subsidy, when issued, could require us to change our previously reported information.

 

Note 3 – Goodwill and Acquired Intangibles

 

On January 1, 2003 we reorganized our Military Aircraft and Missile Systems and Space and Communications segments into Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) which triggered a goodwill impairment analysis. Our analysis took into consideration the lower stock price as of April 1, 2003, to include the impact of the required annual impairment test. As a result of this impairment analysis, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge during the three months ended March 31, 2003 of $913 ($818 net of tax).

 

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2004, were as follows:

 

     December 31
2003
   Goodwill
Adjustment 
(1)
   March 31

Commercial Airplanes

   $ 282           $ 282

Aircraft and Weapon Systems

Network Systems

     1,194    $ 2      1,196

Launch and Orbital Systems

                    

Other

     3             3

     $ 1,913    $ 2    $ 1,915

(1)   The goodwill adjustment represents goodwill related to a post-acquisition purchase price adjustment.
