GE ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2020 RESULTS
Challenging quarter that GE met head-on with better operational execution and de-risking actions
Total orders $13.8B, (38)%; organic orders (35)%
Total revenues (GAAP) $17.7B, (24)%; Industrial organic revenues* $16.3B, (20)%
Industrial profit margin (GAAP) of (5.7)%, (390) bps; adjusted Industrial profit margin* (3.2)%, (1,170) bps
Continuing EPS (GAAP) of $(0.27), including non-cash goodwill and other charges and the impact of marking GE's investment in Baker Hughes to market; adjusted EPS* $(0.15)
GE CFOA (GAAP) $(1.6)B; Industrial free cash flow* $(2.1)B

BOSTON — July 29, 2020 — GE (NYSE:GE) announced results today for the second quarter ending June 30, 2020.

GE Chairman and CEO H. Lawrence Culp, Jr. said, “The GE team remains focused on protecting the safety of our people, serving our customers and communities, and preserving our strengths, and I want to thank all of my colleagues for their tireless efforts. We had a very challenging second quarter that we met head-on, executing well operationally while we took actions to further de-risk our company. Our earnings performance was impacted by the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on our businesses, but Industrial free cash flow was better than our expectations and previously communicated range. We made faster progress on elements within our control, including our targeted cost and cash preservation actions."

Culp continued, "We're working through a still-difficult COVID-19 environment, and while it's too early to predict the trajectory for the recovery of commercial aviation, we continue to plan for a prolonged return to prior levels of activity. Still, based on what we see today and the actions we've taken, sequential improvement in earnings and cash in the second half of the year is achievable. We expect to return to positive Industrial free cash flow in 2021. We are accelerating our transformation to make GE stronger and drive long-term, profitable growth."

GE continued to take action on its priorities:
Supported global customers and communities combatting COVID-19, including tripling production of GE's CARESCAPE™ R860 ventilators in the quarter; partnering with Ford to scale the Airon-licensed pNeuton Model A-E ventilator; increasing manufacturing capacity of monitoring solutions, X-ray, anesthesia, and point-of-care ultrasound systems; and pledging financial support to communities through the GE Foundation and to employees through GE's Employee Relief Fund.
Realized more than one-third of cost and cash actions in the second quarter toward target of more than $2 billion of cost actions and more than $3 billion of cash actions during 2020.
Reduced near-term liquidity needs by $10.5 billion through a series of GE and GE Capital debt offerings and repayments that GE expects to be leverage neutral by the end of 2021.
Reduced debt by $9.1 billion year to date—including $7.8 billion in GE Industrial net debt* and $1.3 billion in GE Capital debt—and by approximately $22 billion since the beginning of 2019.
Launching program to fully monetize remaining stake in Baker Hughes over approximately three years, in line with GE's stated goal.
Focused portfolio by selling GE Lighting to Savant Systems, Inc.
Named new leaders, including John Slattery as president- and CEO-elect, Aviation; Pat Byrne as VP, Lean Transformation, GE, in addition to his role leading GE Digital; Nancy Anderson as Chief Information Officer, GE; Mike Barber as Chief Diversity Officer, GE; and chief diversity officers across GE's businesses.
Completed thorough and competitive audit tender process, selecting Deloitte as GE's independent auditor for the 2021 fiscal year.

During the second quarter, GE also recognized several significant items that affected its financial results, including:
Non-cash pre-tax goodwill impairment charges of $877 million related to Additive within GE's Aviation segment and $839 million related to GECAS within GE Capital, which together negatively impacted continuing EPS (GAAP) by $0.18.
A $608 million pre-tax charge to reflect updated billing and cost assumptions for certain long-term service agreements (LTSAs) at Aviation in light of COVID-19. This was driven by lower utilization forecasts, specific contract adjustments, and customer credit risk.
A $1.8 billion pre-tax unrealized gain on marking its investment in Baker Hughes to market, which favorably impacted continuing EPS (GAAP) by $0.18.

Baker Hughes Update

Concurrent with today’s earnings release, GE is launching a program to fully monetize its Baker Hughes position over approximately three years. This program is designed to enable GE to sell its shares at a price that approximates the volume-weighted average price of the Baker Hughes shares over an extended period of time. Executing on this program over time will allow GE to divest a substantial non-core asset, redeploy capital, enhance financial flexibility, and strengthen its balance sheet. GE expects to use proceeds from these transactions for further deleveraging.

Orders of $2.9 billion were down 42% reported and 41% organically, with equipment orders down significantly. Gas Power orders were down 43% organically and included orders for six gas turbines, including four aeroderivative units, and Power Portfolio orders were down 35% organically. Revenues of $4.2 billion were down 11% reported and 9% organically*, with Gas Power down 5% organically and Power Portfolio down 19% organically*. Segment loss of $40 million was down by $157 million, largely due to lower services volume and increased reserves primarily driven by an underperforming JV related to global aeroderivative packaging, partially offset by further fixed cost* reduction, primarily in Gas Power.

Orders of $3.0 billion were down 19% reported and 17% organically, primarily driven by U.S. Onshore and Grid orders that pushed out of the first half of the year due to COVID-19. Revenues of $3.5 billion were down 3% reported and up 1% organically*, mainly driven by Onshore Wind, with new unit turbine deliveries of 830 and repower kit deliveries of 357. Segment loss of $195 million was down 6%, mainly driven by the negative impact of supply chain and project fulfillment disruptions associated with COVID-19 and quality-related costs, partially offset by Onshore Wind price and lower project execution losses.

Orders of $3.7 billion were down 56% reported and organically with equipment down 41% reported and services down 67% reported. Revenues of $4.4 billion were down 44% reported and organically* with equipment down 33% reported—driven by sales of 178 LEAP-1A and -1B units, down 259 from last year, and sales of CFM56 units down 74 from last year—and services down 51% reported, primarily on lower volume and adjustments to LTSAs related to the impact of COVID-19. Military revenues increased 19% reported, primarily due to higher volume of engine shipments and increased revenues on development contracts. Segment loss of $680 million was down $2.1 billion, primarily due to COVID-19-related charges of $608 million in Commercial Services, lower volume on commercial spare part and commercial spare engine shipments, and decreased volume of shop visits. Decremental margins slightly improved sequentially from 62% to 59%, inclusive of the COVID-19-related charges.

Orders of $4.2 billion were down 18% reported and down 1% organically, driven by lower demand for products less correlated with COVID-19 and lower volume in Pharmaceutical Diagnostics, partially offset by elevated demand for COVID-19-related products. Revenues of $3.9 billion were down 21% reported and 4% organically*, with Healthcare Systems flat organically* and Pharmaceutical Diagnostics down 28% organically*. Segment profit of $550 million was down 43% reported and down 4% organically*, driven by a significant shift in product mix and headwinds in logistics and supply chain, partially offset through cost reductions.

$(3.1)
Continuing operations generated a loss of $1.5 billion in the quarter, primarily due to an impairment of GECAS goodwill, the majority of which arose from the acquisition of Milestone Aviation, our helicopter leasing business, in 2015. Continuing operations was also driven by mark-to-market effects and impairments, including the results of customer-specific, risk-based reviews of the GECAS aircraft operating lease portfolio; volume declines; debt tender costs; and lower gains. Excluding the impact of goodwill and debt tender costs, continuing operations generated an adjusted loss* of $522 million.

GE Capital continuing operations ended the quarter with $114 billion of assets, including $16 billion of liquidity. GE Capital remains committed to achieving a debt-to-equity target of less than 4x over time and expects to complete its annual Insurance premium deficiency testing and GECAS impairment review of the full portfolio 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, 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 and Healthcare; 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.

(a)
Represents the adding together of all GE Industrial affiliates and GE Capital continuing operations on a one-line basis. See Note 1 to the 2019 consolidated financial statements at www.ge.com/ar2019 for further information about consolidation matters.
(b)
GE Capital cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $16.0 billion at June 30, 2020, including $1.2 billion which was subject to regulatory restrictions, primarily in insurance entities. On April 17, 2020, we refinanced unused back-up revolving syndicated credit facility. In connection with the refinancing, we terminated the unused $20.0 billion back-up revolving syndicated credit facility and entered into a new $15.0 billion back-up revolving syndicated credit facility, expiring in April 2023. The closing of the new $15.0 billion facility also terminated the $14.8 billion unused revolving syndicated credit facility that was scheduled to mature in December 2020. Under the terms of an agreement between GE Capital and GE, GE Capital has the right to compel GE to borrow under the $15.0 billion unused back-up revolving syndicated credit facility. Under this agreement, GE would transfer the proceeds to GE Capital as intercompany loans, which would be subject to the same terms and conditions as those between GE and the lending banks. GE Capital has not exercised this right.
(c)
Balance included consolidated restricted cash of $1.1 billion and $0.6 billion at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. GE restricted cash was $0.9 billion and $0.5 billion at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and GE Capital restricted cash was $0.2 billion and $0.1 billion at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
(d)
GE borrowings includes commercial paper of $0.5 billion and $3.0 billion at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. GE Capital borrowings includes commercial paper of zero at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
(e)
At June 30, 2020, the remaining GE Capital borrowings that had been assumed by GE as part of the GE Capital Exit Plan was $25.4 billion, for which GE has an offsetting receivable from GE Capital of $20.7 billion. The difference of $4.7 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, 2020, total GE borrowings is comprised of GE-issued borrowings of $20.4 billion and the $4.7 billion of borrowings from GE Capital as described in note (e) above for a total of $25.1 billion.

GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY
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; Gas Power organic revenues; Power Portfolio organic revenues; Healthcare Systems organic revenues; and Pharmaceutical Diagnostics 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 GE Industrial organic profit and profit margin; Adjusted earnings (loss); and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share (EPS), (4) cash flows, specifically GE Industrial free cash flows (FCF) and (5) debt balances, specifically GE Industrial net debt.

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 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 the retained costs in Adjusted earnings* and Adjusted 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 2020. We believe presenting Adjusted Industrial earnings* and Adjusted Industrial 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 investors may find it useful to compare GE's Industrial free cash flows* performance without the effects of cash used for taxes related to business sales. We believe this measure will better allow management and investors to evaluate the capacity of our industrial operations to generate free cash flows.

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 the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business operations, financial results and financial position and on the world economy; our expected financial performance, including cash flows, revenues, organic growth, margins, earnings and earnings per share; macroeconomic and market conditions and volatility; 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:
the severity, magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, including impacts of the pandemic and of businesses' and governments' responses to the pandemic on our operations and personnel, and on commercial activity and demand across our and our customers' businesses, and on global supply chains;
our inability to predict the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and related impacts will continue to adversely impact our business operations, financial performance, results of operations, financial position, the prices of our securities and the achievement of our strategic objectives;
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), oil and other commodity prices and exchange rates, and the impact of such changes and volatility on our financial position;
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, the amount and timing of required capital contributions to the insurance operations 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;
our success in executing and completing asset dispositions or other transactions, including our plan to exit our equity ownership position in Baker Hughes, the timing of closing for such transactions and the expected proceeds and benefits to GE;
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 trade tensions such as those between the U.S. and China;
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 customer dynamics such as early aircraft retirements, conditions in key geographic markets 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 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 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 third-party products with which our products are integrated, such as the fleet grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX, and the timing of its return to service and return to delivery, and related reputational effects;
the impact of potential information technology, cybersecurity or data security breaches; and
the other factors that are described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as such descriptions may be updated or amended in any future reports we file with the SEC.

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.
