The second-quarter results of European and American aviation giants Airbus and Boeing were generally better than expected, but the CEOs of both companies pointed out that aircraft manufacturers face a "complex" operating environment. Airbus reported higher-than-expected revenue and profits in the second quarter. Revenue in the first half of the year was lower than expected, but profits were still higher than expected. Airbus kept some of its full-year performance guidance unchanged and still expects adjusted EBIT to be about 6 billion euros, roughly in line with analysts' expectations of 6.06 billion euros. Boeing announced that its revenue in the second quarter of this year exceeded expectations and its losses expanded year-on-year, but the magnitude was not as serious as expected. Moreover, not only did it not "burn money" as the market expected, it also created a large amount of positive free cash inflows.
