CEO Pat Shanahan said the company's acquisition by Boeing is still on track, with completion expected in mid-2025. The company had previously announced that 700 workers would be on a 21-day strike to deal with the impact of a Boeing machinist strike. The company stated that if Boeing's strike continues past November, financial pressures could lead to layoffs and additional work stoppages. Currently, the company's operating cash flow is being affected by delays in Boeing 737 deliveries, and management is implementing plans to improve liquidity. (Gelonghui)
