The company priced separate underwritten public offerings of 112.50 million shares of common stock, par value $5.00 per share, at a public offering price of $143 per share; and $5 billion of depositary shares, each representing a 1/20th interest in a share of newly issued 6.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share at a public offering price of $50.00 per Depositary Share.

Boeing has granted the underwriters in each respective offering a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 16.88 million shares of Common Stock; and $750 million of Depositary Shares, solely to cover over-allotments, if any, in each case at the public offering price less the applicable underwriting discount.
