I'm sure you're right about bankruptcy not being under consideration. On the other hand, credible analysts have been suggesting that this mess may ultimately cost Boeing more than $10 billion (charges in the neighborhood of $8 billion have already been announced). That's pretty close to the company's pretax income for 2018. And it's easy to imagine the total being significantly more than that, depending upon what the ultimate impact on sales and selling prices might be.
They don't spend that much on flowers.
