BOSTON - April 27, 2021 - GE (NYSE:GE) announced results today for the first quarter ending March 31, 2021.

GE Chairman and CEO H. Lawrence Culp, Jr. said, 'I am proud of the GE team's solid first quarter results, despite a still difficult environment for Aviation. We are improving our cash performance and profitability with Industrial free cash flow growth of $1.7 billion year-over-year, excluding BioPharma, and organic margin expansion across all segments, except Aviation. This continued progress sets us up well to deliver on our 2021 commitments.'

Culp added, 'Our recent GECAS transaction serves as an important catalyst in our transformation to a more focused, simpler, and stronger industrial company. At the same time, our businesses are building momentum by accelerating our lean and decentralization efforts. We are shifting more toward offense and capturing opportunities in the energy transition, precision health, and future of flight. I am confident we are well positioned to drive profitable growth, achieving high single digit free cash flow margins over time and creating long-term value for shareholders.'

GE continues to build momentum on a stronger foundation:

•Simplifying and strengthening GE: The recently announced GECAS and AerCap transaction focuses GE on its industrial core and provides cash and a meaningful equity stake for further upside and flexibility as the aviation industry recovers. GE expects to use the proceeds from the transaction to further reduce debt for a total reduction of more than $70 billion since the end of 2018.

•Accelerating lean & decentralization: GE's lean transformation is scaling company-wide, driving sustainable performance, including improved safety, quality, delivery, and cost, as well as high-quality revenue and cultural change. Coupled with significant decentralization efforts, GE is enabling improvement at deeper levels of the organization across nearly 30 P&Ls to drive greater accountability and move action closer to customers.

•Investing in technology and serving customers: Driving organic growth efforts through new product introductions and services capabilities. Recent wins across our portfolio include:

◦Energy transition: Secured largest combined Onshore Wind project in Renewable Energy's history, consisting of more than 530 turbines for the 1.5GW North Central Wind Energy Facilities in Oklahoma. Began first commercial operation of Gas Power's 9HA.02 gas turbine, the world's largest and most efficient gas turbine, at Southern Power Generation's 1.4GW plant in Malaysia.

◦Precision health: Launched new, innovative solutions to support clinicians treating patients at the point-of-care, assisting clinicians fighting COVID-19. Vscan Air™, a wireless, pocket-sized ultrasound with whole-body scanning capabilities, delivers high-quality images directly to the clinician enabling sharing with patients in real-time. Also launched Venue Fit™, a simplified, compact, intuitive ultrasound, as well as an industry-first AI offering for cardiac imaging and a tool to display lung abnormalities on the Venue™ and Venue Go™.

◦Future of flight: Secured agreements from Southwest Airlines for CFM International's LEAP-1B engines to power 100 Boeing 737 MAX 7 aircraft, along with a long-term services agreement, and Scandinavian Airlines for CFM's LEAP-1A engines to power 35 additional A320neo family aircraft, also with a long-term services agreement, valued at $2.9 billion. CFM's LEAP engines reduce fuel consumption by 15% compared to CFM56 engines.

Results by Reporting Segment

The following segment discussions and variance explanations are intended to reflect management's view of the relevant comparisons of financial results.

Power

Three months ended March 31
(in millions)	2021	2020	Year on Year
Orders	$3,633	$4,111	(12)	%
Revenues	3,921	4,025	(3)	%
Segment Profit/(Loss)	(87)	(131)	34	%
Segment Profit/(Loss) Margin	(2.2)	%	(3.3)	%	110 bps

Orders of $3.6 billion were down 12% reported and organically. At Gas Power, equipment orders were down, driven by the non-repeat of a large turnkey order, partially offset by service orders growth. We booked 18 gas turbine orders, up 9 year-over-year. Power Portfolio orders were down as we continue to exit the new build coal business. Revenues of $3.9 billion were down 3% reported and 4% organically*. Gas Power revenues were down 1% reported and 2% organically*, driven by significantly lower turnkey projects, partially offset by services, which were up 13% reported and organically*, as we saw strong transactional backlog execution and higher outages. Power Portfolio revenues were down 6% reported and 9% organically*, driven by Steam, despite growth at both Power Conversion and Nuclear. Segment margin, while negative reported, expanded 110 basis points organically*, largely due to the positive mix from services volume coupled with a 7% reduction in fixed costs* at Gas Power.

Renewable Energy

Three months ended March 31
(in millions)	2021	2020	Year on Year
Orders	$3,515	$3,068	15	%
Revenues	3,248	3,194	2	%
Segment Profit/(Loss)	(234)	(327)	28	%
Segment Profit/(Loss) Margin	(7.2)	%	(10.2)	%	300 bps

Orders of $3.5 billion were up 15% reported and 13% organically, primarily driven by a large High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) order at Grid. Orders at Onshore Wind and Offshore Wind also increased in the quarter with significant growth at Onshore Wind services. Revenues of $3.2 billion were up 2% reported and flat organically*. In Onshore Wind, equipment was higher with more than 760 new units delivered in the quarter. Onshore Wind services were down as we did not deliver any repower upgrades, though excluding repower, services were up. Offshore Wind grew by executing EDF's 6MW PBG project in Saint-Nazaire, France, partially offset by lower revenue at Grid. Segment margin was negative reported but expanded by 310 basis points organically*, primarily from cost productivity and execution in Onshore Wind. In Grid and Hydro, cost out and better project execution more than offset the incremental restructuring expenses.

Aviation

Three months ended March 31
(in millions)	2021	2020	Year on Year
Orders	$5,491	$7,448	(26)	%
Revenues	4,992	6,892	(28)	%
Segment Profit/(Loss)	641	1,003	(36)	%
Segment Profit/(Loss) Margin	12.8	%	14.6	%	(180) bps

Orders of $5.5 billion were down 26% reported and organically amid ongoing pandemic-related challenges. Commercial Services orders were down 41% but improved sequentially from down 52% in fourth quarter of 2020, while Commercial Engines orders were down 9%. Revenues of $5.0 billion were down 28% reported and 27% organically*, with Commercial Engines down 25% reported and Commercial Services down 40% reported, driven by lower spare parts sales and shop visits. Military was flat due to favorable equipment mix, despite 50 lower unit shipments. Segment margin of 13% reported contracted by 200 basis points organically*, but margin expanded by 320 basis points reported sequentially as cost actions continue.

Healthcare

Three months ended March 31
(in millions)	2021	2020	Year on Year
Orders	$4,472	$5,292	(15)	%
Revenues	4,308	4,727	(9)	%
Segment Profit/(Loss)	698	867	(19)	%
Segment Profit/(Loss) Margin	16.2	%	18.3	%	(210) bps

Orders of $4.5 billion were down 15% reported and up 5% organically. Healthcare Systems (HCS) orders were up 5% organically, with growth across equipment and services, including Imaging and Ultrasound improving double digits. Life Care Solutions (LCS) orders were down as pandemic-related demand softened. Pharmaceutical Diagnostics (PDx) orders grew 7% with CT screening for cardiac disease and routine oncology and neurology screening returning to pre-pandemic levels. Revenues of $4.3 billion were down 9% reported and up 7% organically* with HCS and PDx both up. Notably, Ultrasound demand was strong with growth across most regions and all product lines. At PDx, elective procedures returned to pre-pandemic levels. Segment margin was down by 210 basis points reported but expanded by 270 basis points organically* driven by profitable growth and continued cost reduction.

GE Capital

Three months ended March 31
(in millions)	2021	2020	Year on Year
Capital continuing operations	$(172)	$(187)	8	%
Discontinued operations	(2,894)	(7)	U
GE Capital Earnings	$(3,066)	$(194)	U

(in billions)	March 31, 2021	December 31, 2020	Variance
GE Capital continuing operations assets	$71.7	$77.7	$(6.0)

Continuing operations generated a net loss of $0.2 billion. Adjusted continuing operations generated a net loss of $0.1 billion* in the quarter, up $0.1 billion from the same period last year. This was primarily due to favorable Insurance claims and investment performance, as well as favorable tax; partially offset by lower EFS gains.

Discontinued operations generated a net loss of $2.9 billion. In connection with the signing of the GECAS transaction agreement with AerCap, GECAS was moved into discontinued operations and recorded a net loss of $2.6 billion, which includes a loss on sale of $2.8 billion from the AerCap transaction, offset by about $0.2 billion of earnings. In addition, we recorded charges of $0.3 billion in our run-off Polish mortgage portfolio, reflecting estimates with respect to ongoing litigation as well as market yields.

GE Capital continuing operations ended the quarter with $71.7 billion of assets, including $9.4 billion of liquidity.

2021 Outlook

GE reiterated its total company outlook for full-year 2021:

•GE Industrial revenues* to grow organically in the low-single-digit range.

•Adjusted GE Industrial profit margin* to expand organically by 250-plus basis points.

•Adjusted earnings per share* of $0.15 to $0.25.

•GE Industrial free cash flow* of $2.5 billion to $4.5 billion.

Effective April 1, GE discontinued the majority of our factoring programs. The expected Industrial CFOA impact will be about $3.5 billion to $4 billion with the majority felt in the second quarter, which will be excluded from our Industrial free cash flow reporting. Combined with the $800 million reported cash impact in the first quarter from normal course activity, this equates to a $4 billion to $5 billion cash range as described at the 2021 Outlook meeting in March.

(b)GE Capital cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $9.4 billion at March 31, 2021, including $0.2 billion which was subject to regulatory restrictions. Under the terms of an agreement between GE Capital and GE Industrial, GE Capital has the right to compel GE Industrial to borrow under the $15.0 billion unused back-up revolving syndicated credit facility. Under this agreement, GE Industrial would transfer the proceeds to GE Capital as intercompany loans, which would be subject to the same terms and conditions as those between GE Industrial and the lending banks. GE Capital has not exercised this right.

(c)Balance included consolidated restricted cash of $0.4 billion at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. GE Industrial restricted cash was $0.4 billion at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and GE Capital restricted cash was insignificant at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

(d)At March 31, 2021, the remaining GE Capital borrowings that had been assumed by GE Industrial as part of the GE Capital Exit Plan was $21.5 billion, for which GE Industrial has an offsetting receivable from GE Capital of $18.4 billion. The difference of $3.2 billion represents the amount of borrowings GE Capital has funded with available cash to GE Industrial via an intercompany loan in lieu of issuing borrowings externally.

(e)At March 31, 2021, total GE Industrial borrowings is comprised of GE Industrial-issued borrowings of $19.7 billion and the $3.2 billion of borrowings from GE Capital as described in note (d) above for a total of $22.9 billion.

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. This includes adjustments in recent periods to GAAP financial measures to increase period-to-period comparability following actions to strengthen our overall financial position and how we manage our business.

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 organic revenues by segment; GE Industrial organic revenues, Gas Power organic revenues; Gas Power organic equipment and services revenues, and Power Portfolio organic revenues, (2) costs, specifically Gas Power fixed costs, (3) profit, specifically GE Industrial organic profit and profit margin by segment; Adjusted GE Industrial profit and profit margin (excluding certain items); Adjusted earnings (loss); and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share (EPS), (4) cash flows, specifically GE Industrial free cash flows (FCF) and GE Industrial FCF excluding BioPharma FCF, and (5) outlook, specifically 2021 Adjusted EPS; and 2021 GE Industrial free cash flows.

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.

We believe these measures provide 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 presenting organic revenues* and organic profit* 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.

Earnings-per-share amounts are computed independently. As a result, the sum of per-share amounts may not equal the total.
The service cost of our pension and other benefit plans are included in adjusted earnings (loss)*, 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, and we manage these separately from the operational performance of our businesses. Gains (losses), unrealized gains (losses) and restructuring and other items are impacted by the timing and magnitude of gains associated with dispositions, and the timing and magnitude of costs associated with restructuring and other activities. We believe that the retained costs in Adjusted earnings (loss)* provides management and investors a useful measure to evaluate the performance of the total company, and increases period-to-period comparability. We believe that presenting Adjusted Industrial earnings (loss)* 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 this measure will better allow management and investors to evaluate the capacity of our industrial operations to generate free cash flows.

2021 OPERATING FRAMEWORK: 2021 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 2021 without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of timing of any gains or losses related to acquisitions & dispositions, the timing and magnitude of the financial impact related to the mark-to-market of our remaining investment in Baker Hughes, 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.

2021 OPERATING FRAMEWORK: 2021 GE INDUSTRIAL FREE CASH FLOW (NON-GAAP)

•changes in macroeconomic and market conditions and market volatility (including developments and volatility arising from the COVID-19 pandemic), including interest rates, the value of securities and other financial assets (including our equity ownership position in Baker Hughes and the equity ownership position that we will hold in AerCap after completing our announced plan to combine GECAS with AerCap), oil, natural gas and other commodity prices and exchange rates, and the impact of such changes and volatility on our financial position and businesses;

•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, supplier, 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 and discontinued operations such as Bank BPH, the amount and timing of any required capital contributions and any 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, including through GECAS to the aviation sector and adverse impacts related to COVID-19;

•global economic trends, competition and geopolitical risks, including changes in the rates of investment or economic growth in key markets we serve, or an escalation of sanctions, tariffs or other trade tensions between the U.S. and China or other countries, and related impacts on our businesses' global supply chains and strategies;

•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, cyclical and competitive pressures in our Power business, pricing and other pressures in the renewable energy market, levels of demand for air travel and other dynamics related to the COVID-19 pandemic, conditions in key geographic markets and other shifts in the competitive landscape for our products and services;

•operational execution by our businesses, including the operations and execution of our Power and Renewable Energy businesses, and the performance 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 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 and other investigative and legal proceedings;

•the impact of actual or potential failures of our products or third-party products with which our products are integrated, and related reputational effects;
