Boeing reported a 12 percent jump in profit per share and raised its full-year forecast.

Net income rose to $1.51 a share from $1.35 a year ago as revenue increased 11 percent to $22.13 billion, it said on Wednesday. The gain came largely from a 14 percent surge in aircraft deliveries.

Core earnings, which exclude some pension and other costs, jumped 16 percent to $1.80 a share from $1.55.

Boeing raised its full-year core earnings forecast to between $6.50 and $6.65 a share from a previous outlook of $6.20 to $6.40.
