Boeing (BA) didn't break out the deliveries of it 737 Max planes, the type of plane that was grounded. Older versions of the 737 are still being built for customers. Overall deliveries of both types of planes fell to 89 from 132 a year ago.

Boeing halted those deliveries following the global grounding of the 737 Max planes. That action followed a March 10 crash of an Ethiopian Airlines 737 Max 8 jet, and an October crash involving a Lion Air flight in Indonesia.
