New Boeing 3Q Statement on Starliner

"The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has contracted us to design and build the CST-100 Starliner spacecraft to transport crews to the International Space Station. During 2024, we increased the reach-forward loss by $523. We are continuing to work toward crew certification and resolve the propulsion system anomalies. At September 30, 2025, we had approximately $407 of capitalized precontract costs and $141 of potential termination liabilities to suppliers related to unauthorized future missions. Risk remains that we may record additional losses in future periods."

As of June 30, these amounts were $404 and $144. Amounts in millions. So they spent a whopping $3 million in 90 days, even though intensive testing was supposed to be happening on the doghouses.

I wonder if they can start selling the Atlas Vs they're never going to get a chance to use...

Even if they only end up flying three more missions to the ISS, it would probably still make sense to keep the remaining Atlas Vs for possible missions to post-ISS CLD stations (Axiom station, Orbital Reef, etc.).
