BOSTON - July 31, 2019 - GE (NYSE:GE) announced results today for the second quarter ending June 30, 2019.
GE Chairman and CEO H. Lawrence Culp, Jr. said, “We made steady progress on our strategic priorities in the second quarter. Our top-line growth was solid, and Power made meaningful improvements on fixed cost reduction and project execution. Margins contracted due to declines in Power, Renewable Energy, and to a lesser extent Aviation, with the first half of 2019 in line with our full-year outlook. We also moved our Grid Solutions equipment and services business to Renewable Energy to offer end-to-end clean energy solutions and moved our Grid Solutions software business to Digital, which resulted in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge.”
Culp continued, “Due to improvements at Power, lower restructuring and interest, higher earnings, and better visibility at the half, we are raising our full-year outlook for Industrial segment organic revenues, adjusted EPS, and Industrial free cash flows, and we are holding our margin guidance. We will continue to take planned actions to improve our businesses and monitor some market headwinds, and we remain focused on driving continuous improvement and delivering for our customers. I am encouraged by our team’s progress and dedication to date.”
During the second quarter, GE continued to take action to improve its financial position and strengthen its businesses. As previously reported, the Company sold down its stake in Wabtec Corporation from ~25% to ~12%, resulting in $1.8 billion of cash proceeds. GE Capital reduced external debt by $2 billion, and as a part of its asset reduction plan, reduced assets by more than $500 million.

Gas Power orders were up 27% reported and 28% organically, including orders for 16 heavy-duty gas turbines and 4 aeroderivative units, and Power Portfolio orders were down 62% reported and 32% organically, largely driven by Steam Power Systems order timing. Revenues of $4.7 billion fell 25% reported and 5% organically*. Segment profit of $117 million was down 71% reported and 69% organically*. Gas Power revenues and margins declined, principally driven by lower volume and mix. Gas Power fixed costs* were down 10% from the same period last year. The team continues to focus on reducing cost and improving operations.

Orders of $3.7 billion were up 35% reported and 38% organically, with onshore orders up 87% reported driven by North America. Revenues of $3.6 billion were up 26% reported and 33% organically*. Segment profit of negative $184 million was driven by joint venture consolidation, higher losses on legacy contracts, challenging Onshore project execution in Asia Pacific, increased R&D investment, tariffs, and pricing, partially offset by cost productivity and strong volume. Renewable Energy's two major new products—Cypress in onshore and Haliade-X in offshore—continue to progress toward commercialization, with Cypress securing launch orders in the first half and Haliade-X undergoing blade testing.

Orders of $8.6 billion were down 10% reported and 9% organically with equipment down 24% and services up 3% reported. Revenues of $7.9 billion grew 5% reported and 6% organically* with equipment revenues up 4% reported driven by commercial engines, partially offset by military. We shipped 437 LEAP engines in the second quarter of 2019 vs. 250 in the prior year, and backlog grew 9% sequentially, to $244 billion, driven in part by wins at the Paris Air Show. Segment profit of $1.4 billion was down 6% reported, driven by engine mix from the introduction of the Passport engine and continued transition from CFM to LEAP, as well as charges related to uncertainty of collections for a customer and additional cost for the GE9X certification. GE continues to work closely with Boeing to actively manage our engine production while the 737 MAX fleet remains grounded.

GE Capital Earnings | 148 | (273) | F |
| 319 | (2,041) | F |
Continuing operations generated a net loss of $89 million in the quarter. GE Capital ended the quarter with $121 billion of assets, including $12.5 billion of liquidity. Capital continuing earnings improved $118 million from the same period last year, primarily due to higher gains including the sale of an equity method investment at EFS, lower impairments, higher tax benefits and lower excess interest costs, partially offset by volume declines.
GE Capital completed asset reductions of more than $500 million in the quarter, totaling approximately $2 billion year to date, and remains on track to execute approximately $10 billion of asset reductions in 2019 to meet GE's two-year target of $25 billion. GE remains focused on shrinking and de-risking GE Capital, including improving its leverage profile, and expects to complete its annual Insurance premium deficiency testing and GECAS impairment review in the third quarter.

(a) | Segment revenues include sales of products and services related to the segment. Segment profit excludes results reported as discontinued operations, restructuring and other charges (with the exception of Oil & Gas), the portion of earnings or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of consolidated subsidiaries, and as such only includes the portion of earnings or loss attributable to our share of the consolidated earnings or loss of consolidated subsidiaries. Segment profit excludes or includes interest and other financial charges, non-operating benefit costs, income taxes, and preferred stock dividends according to how a particular segment's management is measured – excluded in determining segment profit for Power, Renewable Energy, Aviation, Healthcare and Oil & Gas; included in determining segment profit, which we sometimes refer to as "net earnings," for Capital. Other income is included in segment profit for the industrial segments. Certain corporate costs, such as those related to shared services, employee benefits and information technology are allocated to our segments based on usage. A portion of the remaining corporate costs is allocated based on each segment's relative net cost of operations. Industrial segment revenues and profit include the sum of our five industrial reporting segments without giving effect to the elimination of transactions among such segments and between these segments and our financial services segment. Total segment revenues and profit include the sum of our five industrial segments and one financial services segment, without giving effect to the elimination of transactions among such segments. We believe that this provides investors with a view as to the results of all of our segments, without inter-segment eliminations and corporate items. |
| |
(b) | Effective the first quarter of 2019, Corporate items and eliminations includes the results of our Lighting segment for all periods presented. |

Included in our credit facilities is an unused $20.0 billion back-up syndicated credit facility extended by 36 banks, expiring in 2021, and an unused $14.8 billion syndicated credit facility extended by six banks, expiring in 2020. GE Capital has the right to compel GE to borrow under certain of these credit lines and transfer the proceeds as loans to GE Capital, which would be subject to the same terms and conditions as those between GE and the lending banks. |
| |
(c) | Balance included consolidated restricted cash of $0.7 billion and $0.5 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. GE restricted cash was $0.7 billion and $0.5 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and GE Capital restricted cash was an insignificant amount at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. |

(e) | At June 30, 2019, the remaining GE Capital borrowings that had been assumed by GE as part of the GE Capital Exit Plan was $35.0 billion, for which GE has an offsetting receivable from GE Capital of $21.2 billion. The difference of $13.7 billion represents the amount of borrowings GE Capital has funded with available cash to GE via an intercompany loan in lieu of issuing borrowings externally. |
| |
(f) | At June 30, 2019, total GE borrowings is comprised of GE-issued borrowings of $31.8 billion and the $13.7 billion of borrowings from GE Capital as described in note (e) above for a total of $45.6 billion (including $6.3 billion BHGE borrowings). |

Financial Measures That Supplement GAAP
We believe that presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides management and investors useful measures to evaluate performance and trends of the total company and its businesses, and increases period-to-period comparability. In addition, management recognizes that certain non-GAAP terms may be interpreted differently by other companies under different circumstances. In various sections of this report we have made reference to the following non-GAAP financial measures in describing our (1) revenues, specifically GE Industrial segment organic revenues, (2) costs, specifically Gas Power fixed costs, (3) profit, specifically GE Industrial segment organic profit; Adjusted GE Industrial profit and profit margin (excluding certain items); Adjusted earnings (loss); and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share (EPS), and (4) cash flows, specifically GE Industrial Free Cash Flows (FCF) and Adjusted GE Industrial FCF.
The reasons we use these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures follow. Certain columns, rows or percentages within these reconciliations may not add or recalculate due to the use of rounded numbers. Totals and percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions.

(a) The tax effect presented includes both the rate for the relevant item as well as other direct and incremental tax charges. |
(b) Earnings-per-share amounts are computed independently. As a result, the sum of per-share amounts may not equal the total. |
The service cost for our pension and other benefit plans are included in adjusted earnings*, which represents the ongoing cost of providing pension benefits to our employees. The components of non-operating benefit costs are mainly driven by capital allocation decisions and market performance. We believe that the retained costs in Adjusted earnings and EPS* provides management and investors a useful measure to evaluate the performance of the total company, and increases period-to-period comparability. We also use Adjusted EPS* as a performance metric at the company level for our annual executive incentive plan for 2019. We believe that presenting Adjusted Industrial earnings and EPS* separately for our financial services businesses also provides management and investors with useful information about the relative size of our industrial and financial services businesses in relation to the total company. |

We believe that this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, as these activities can obscure underlying trends. We also believe that presenting organic revenues* separately for our industrial businesses provides management and investors with useful information about the trends of our industrial businesses and enables a more direct comparison to other non-financial companies. |

We believe that this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, as these activities can obscure underlying trends. We also believe that presenting organic revenues* separately for our industrial businesses provides management and investors with useful information about the trends of our industrial businesses and enables a more direct comparison to other non-financial companies. |

We believe that fixed costs* is a meaningful measure as it is broader than selling, general and administrative costs and represents the costs in the segments that generally do not vary with volume. |
Segment variable costs* are those costs within our industrial segments that vary with volume. The most significant variable costs would be material and direct labor costs incurred to produce our products and deliver our services that are recorded in the Statement of Earnings line items of cost of goods and cost of services sold. |

We believe that this measure will better allow management and investors to evaluate the capacity of our industrial operations to generate free cash flows. In addition, we report Adjusted GE Industrial Free Cash Flows* in order to provide a more fair representation of the cash that we are entitled to utilize in a given period. We also use Adjusted GE Industrial Free Cash Flows* as a performance metric at the company-wide level for our annual executive incentive plan. |

2019 OPERATING FRAMEWORK: 2019 ADJUSTED EPS (NON-GAAP) |
| | | | | | |
We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and corresponding GAAP measure for Adjusted EPS* in 2019 without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of timing of any gains or losses related to acquisitions & dispositions, the timing and magnitude of financial impacts related to our planned orderly separation of BHGE, the timing and magnitude of the mark-to-market of our investment in Wabtec, and the timing and magnitude of restructuring expenses. Although we have attempted to estimate the amount of gains and restructuring charges for the purpose of explaining the probable significance of these components, this calculation involves a number of unknown variables, resulting in a GAAP range that we believe is too large and variable to be meaningful. |

We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and corresponding GAAP measure for Adjusted GE Industrial Free Cash Flows* in 2019 without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of timing of deal taxes related to business sales and in particular the timing of the planned orderly separation of BHGE. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results. |

Caution Concerning Forward Looking Statements:
This release and certain of our other public communications and SEC filings may contain statements related to future, not past, events. These forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "see," "will," "would," "estimate," "forecast," "target," "preliminary," or "range." Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about our expected financial performance, including cash flows, revenues, organic growth, margins and earnings; macroeconomic and market conditions; planned and potential business or asset dispositions; our de-leveraging plans, including leverage ratios and targets, the timing and nature of actions to reduce indebtedness and our credit ratings and outlooks; GE’s and GE Capital’s funding and liquidity; our businesses’ cost structures and plans to reduce costs; restructuring, goodwill impairment or other financial charges; or tax rates.
For us, particular uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements include:
| |
• | our success in executing and completing, including obtaining regulatory approvals and satisfying other closing conditions for, announced GE Industrial and GE Capital business or asset dispositions or other transactions, including the planned sale of our BioPharma business within our Healthcare segment and plans to exit our equity ownership positions in BHGE and Wabtec, the timing of closing for those transactions and the expected proceeds and benefits to GE; |
| |
• | our de-leveraging and capital allocation plans, including with respect to actions to reduce our indebtedness, the timing and amount of GE dividends, organic investments, and other priorities; |
| |
• | further downgrades of our current short- and long-term credit ratings or ratings outlooks, or changes in rating application or methodology, and the related impact on our liquidity, funding profile, costs and competitive position; |
| |
• | GE’s liquidity and the amount and timing of our GE Industrial cash flows and earnings, which may be impacted by customer, competitive, contractual and other dynamics and conditions; |
| |
• | GE Capital's capital and liquidity needs, including in connection with GE Capital’s run-off insurance operations, the amount and timing of required capital contributions and related strategic actions that we may pursue; the impact of conditions in the financial and credit markets on GE Capital's ability to sell financial assets; the availability and cost of funding; and GE Capital's exposure to particular counterparties and markets; |
| |
• | the results of our annual GAAP premium deficiency testing for GE Capital’s run-off insurance operations, which we expect to be completed in the third quarter of 2019; |
| |
• | changes in macroeconomic conditions, particularly interest rates, as well as the value of stocks and other financial assets (including our equity ownership positions in BHGE and Wabtec), oil and other commodity prices and exchange rates; |
| |
• | market developments or customer actions that may affect levels of demand and the financial performance of the major industries and customers we serve, such as secular and cyclical pressures in our Power business, pricing and other pressures in the renewable energy market, conditions in China and other key markets, early aircraft retirements, and other shifts in the competitive landscape for our products and services; |
| |
• | operational execution by our businesses, including our ability to improve the operations and execution of our Power business, execution by our Renewable Energy business, and the continued strength of our Aviation business; |
| |
• | changes in law, regulation or policy that may affect our businesses, such as trade policy and tariffs, regulation related to climate change, and the effects of U.S. tax reform and other tax law changes; |
| |
• | our decisions about investments in new products, services and platforms, and our ability to launch new products in a cost-effective manner; |
| |
• | our ability to increase margins through implementation of operational changes, restructuring and other cost reduction measures; |
| |
• | the impact of regulation and regulatory, investigative and legal proceedings and legal compliance risks, including the impact of Alstom, SEC and other investigative and legal proceedings; |
| |
• | the impact of actual or potential failures of our products or our customers’ products, such as the fleet grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX, and related reputational effects; |
| |
• | the impact of potential information technology, cybersecurity or data security breaches; |
| |
• | the other factors that are described in "Forward-Looking Statements" in BHGE’s most recent earnings release or SEC filings; and |
| |
• | the other factors that are described in "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as updated in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. |
These or other uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements. We do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements.
This release includes certain forward-looking projected financial information that is based on current estimates and forecasts, and actual results could differ materially. Refer also to the webcast of our investor conference later this morning for additional discussion of our outlook and uncertainties that could cause our future results to be different than our current expectations.
