WASHINGTON—Boeing Co. Chief Executive Dave Calhoun will not receive a $7 million bonus due to the company’s failure to enter the 777X into service by the end of 2023, Boeing said Friday.

Boeing offered the performance-based incentive to Calhoun when he replaced former CEO Dennis Muilenburg in January 2020 and required that Calhoun achieve seven milestones by the end of this year.
