I would imagine the delays will impact further results for a few years, and give Boeing a leg up on 787 orders (of course they have been giving EADs a leg up with their own issues), with deliveries now late 2014 at best.

Airbus said deliveries of the twin engine composite built jet, primarily designed to compete with Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner, would be pushed back by several months to the second half of 2014. The company said it had taken a charge of 125 million euros as a result of the delay and warned that further delays would lead to more charges.
