Boeing Corporate Governance
“The Board’s compensation should be a mix of cash and equity-
based compensation with a significant portion of such
compensation in the form of the company’s stock or stock-
equivalent units. Non-employees directors receive a substantial
portion of their compensation in deferred stock units, which must
be held until retirement or other termination of Board service.”
-Boeing filing SEC
None of the individual board members or the companies for which
they work own a disproportionate share of stock. Many of the top

Dividend Policy & Analysis
Boeing pays lower dividend as compared to the free cash flow
to equity. There is more room for Boeing to pay higher dividend
to its shareholders. Airbus has maintained a consistent dividend
policy and has paid more than their free cash flow. We would
recommend Boeing to pay more dividends and Airbus to
maintain their current dividend to shareholders
