Item 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On October 26, 2001 the Department of Defense announced that an international team led by Lockheed Martin had been selected over a team led by The Boeing Company to build the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), a stealthy, supersonic, military fighter designed for the U.S. Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps, as well as the U.K. Royal Air Force and Royal Navy.
The decision will not have a material impact on The Boeing Companys 2001 financial outlook. For 2002, overall revenues will be lowered by an estimated $1 billion, to approximately $55 billion. The Companys remaining financial guidance for 2002 remains unchanged by this event.
