Boeing said core earnings per share came in at USD1.88 in the fourth quarter, blowing past expectations for earnings per share of USD1.57. The company’s fourth quarter revenue totaled USD23.8 billion, above forecasts for revenue of USD22.71 billion.

Boeing said it expected core 2014 full-year earnings per share to come in at a range between USD7.00 to USD7.20, compared to expectations for earnings of USD7.45 per share.

The firm said 2014 full-year revenue was expected to range from USD87.5 and USD90.5 billion, below forecasts for revenue of USD92.6 billion.
