Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
The Boeing Co. and Consolidated Subsidiaries of Arlington, Virginia sponsors The Pension Value Plan for Employees of the Boeing Company, a cash balance pension plan. Its Form 5500 for the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024 shows 115,617 participants (27,197 active) and $23.3B in net assets.
Net assets came to $201,878 per participant, well above the $88,040 median for defined benefit plans with 25,000 or more participants and well above the $67,961 median for defined benefit plans in manufacturing. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
Schedule C lists 7 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $7.2M: $62.28 per participant, well below the same-size median of $143. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $101M. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $22.2B in 2009 to $23.3B in 2024 (up 5%), and participants from 198,230 to 115,617 (down 42%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

How big is The Pension Value Plan for Employees of the Boeing Company?
115,617 participants at the end of the plan year ending 31 Dec 2024, of whom 27,197 were active employees, with net assets of $23,340,475,380. Among defined benefit plans that places it in the 25,000 or more participants band, which held 215 plans in plan year 2024.
What does The Boeing Co. and Consolidated Subsidiaries contribute per participant?
This filing has no Schedule H financial statement, so employer contributions are not reported here.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $7,200,415 in compensation to service provider organisations, $62.28 per participant or 0.03% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $143 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $100,539,402. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is The Boeing Co. and Consolidated Subsidiaries. Recordkeeping or administration: Fidelity Inv Inst'l Op Co., LLC, The Boeing Co. and Consolidated Subs and Conduent HR Services LLC. Investment advisory or management: The Boeing Co. and Consolidated Subs. The financial statements were audited by Deloitte & Touche, LLP. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jan 2024 to 31 Dec 2024, received by the Department of Labor on 13 Oct 2025. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
