  • Milestone Becomes First Leasing Customer for Multi-Mission H160 @Airbusheli @GECAS #H160reasonswhy
    Milestone becomes first leasing customer for multi-mission H160 @AirbusHeli @GECAS #H160ReasonsWhy Dublin, 5 October 2020 – Milestone Aviation and Airbus Helicopters have agreed to include six H160s in Milestone’s orderbook. The helicopters will be destined for a range of missions including offshore transportation and emergency medical services, the first of which is set to deliver in 2023. “Today’s announcement will see us enhance our orderbook to include the H160 which we believe will be an important player in the market in the years ahead. It is a versatile, multi- mission aircraft with the opportunity to be used in a number of scenarios, particularly serving EMS operations. It will be a valuable addition to our fleet and we’re already in discussion with operators to place the aircraft into service as soon as they are available,” said Pat Sheedy, CEO of Milestone. “We are proud that a longstanding customer such as Milestone is renewing its trust once again in Airbus helicopters. I am convinced that the level of innovation that the H160 brings to the market, whether it is passenger comfort, advanced pilot assistance, or its competiveness thanks to its increased fuel efficiency and simplified maintenance eco- system, combined with its inherent flexibility will make it a valuable asset to their operations,” said Bruno Even, Airbus Helicopters CEO. With 68 patents, the H160 integrates Airbus Helicopters’ latest technological innovations aimed at providing passengers with superior comfort thanks to the sound-reducing Blue Edge blades and superb external visibility for both passengers and pilots, not to mention the additional safety features provided by Helionix’s accrued pilot assistance features.

  • General Electric Partners with Leading Investors to Transform Gecis, Its Global Business Processing Operation, Into an Independent Company
    General Electric Partners With Leading Investors To Transform Gecis, its Global Business Processing Operation, into an Independent Company Move Will Enable Gecis to Pursue Global Demand for BPO Services Fairfield, Conn. (November 8, 2004) – General Electric today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement with two leading private-investment firms, General Atlantic Partners and Oak Hill Capital Partners, under which the firms will acquire a majority interest in GE Capital International Services (Gecis), GE’s global business- processing operation. Gecis already is one of the largest shared-service providers in the world, employing more than 17,000 professional staff. As a recapitalized, independent company, Gecis will be well positioned to offer its high-quality business-processing services to companies in the Americas, Europe, and Asia, where it already has operations. Gecis will continue to serve GE under a multiyear contract, and Pramod Bhasin will remain as president and chief executive officer, supported by the current Gecis global management team. Approximately 1,000 Gecis employees will remain with GE. The transaction, subject to customary approvals, values Gecis at $800 million. Upon closing, GE will retain a 40 percent stake in Gecis and receive cash proceeds of approximately $500 million, which it plans to use to fund growth initiatives. The parties aim to complete the transaction some time in the next six months. “This transaction allows us to offer our quality business-process services to an expanding roster of leading companies worldwide,” Bhasin said in making today’s announcement. “With accelerated growth, Gecis will provide expanded opportunities for employees and increased value for shareholders.

    GE Capital Bernstein Strategic Decisions Conference Keith Sherin May 27, 2015 Forward-Looking Statements: This document contains “forward-looking statements” – that is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this context, 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,” or “target.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about our announced plan to reduce the size of our financial services businesses, including expected cash and non-cash charges associated with this plan; expected income; earnings per share; revenues; organic growth; margins; cost structure; restructuring charges; cash flows; return on capital; capital expenditures, capital allocation or capital structure; dividends; and the split between Industrial and GE Capital earnings. For us, particular uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements include: obtaining (or the timing of obtaining) any required regulatory reviews or approvals or any other consents or approvals associated with our announced plan to reduce the size of our financial services businesses; our ability to complete incremental asset sales as part of this plan in a timely manner (or at all) and at the prices we have assumed; changes in law, economic
