Honeywell share owners approved the merger in January, and GE and Honeywell are working with regulatory agencies to close the transaction as early as possible in 2001. We expect the acquired Honeywell businesses to give us double-digit earnings- per-share accretion and, within two years, add one to two percentage points to GE’s bottom-line growth rate. ▪ In 2000, GE continued its share repurchase program, raised the dividend 17% and split the stock 3 for 1. ▪ Our stock price was down 7% but outperformed the S&P 500, which was down 10%. This is not the kind of “outperformance” we’ve been proud to report in past years— particularly after posting the best operating results in the history of the Company. Still, share owners who have held our stock for five years, including 2000, have been rewarded with an average 34% total annual return on their investment. Those who have held it for a decade, 29%; two decades, a 23% total annual return. ▪ Substantial progress was made in 2000 in further diversifying GE’s leadership. 26% of the Company’s top 3,900 executives are now women and minorities, and over $30 billion of our 2000 revenues were generated by business operations led by female and minority operating managers. ▪ GE continued to be the world’s most honored company—awarded for the fourth straight year Fortune’s “Most Admired Company in America,” as well as, for the third time, “The World’s Most Respected Company,” by the Financial Times. 1 We write this in a year of transition to a new team, pany will generate over $1.5 billion in operating margin and we would like to use this occasion to reflect on what improvements in 2001. GE is today: why it works, the values and beliefs it is built The initiatives are playing a critical role in changing upon and how they will serve to take us to the even better GE, but the most significant change in GE has been its days that we know lie ahead for our Company.

    2018 Annual Report WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION Annual Report https://www.ge.com/investor-relations/annual-report Sustainability Website https://www.ge.com/sustainability FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Some of the information we provide in this document is forward-looking and therefore could change over time to reflect changes in the environment in which GE competes. For details on the uncertainties that may cause our actual results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements, see https://www.ge.com/ investor-relations/important-forward-looking-statement-information. We do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES We sometimes use information derived from consolidated financial data but not presented in our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Certain of these data are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement our GAAP disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to the GAAP measure. The reasons we use these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the CEO letter supplemental information package posted to the investor relations section of our website at www.ge.com. Cover: The GE9X engine hanging on a test stand at our Peebles Test Operation facility in Ohio.

  • GE's $7.4 Billion Loss, Write-Off on Baker Hughes: Another Bad Bet On
    Kathy Hipple, Financial Analyst 1 Tom Sanzillo, Director of Finance Tim Buckley, Director of Energy Finance Studies, Australasia October 2019 GE’s $7.4 Billion Loss, Write-off on Baker Hughes: Another Bad Bet on Fossil Fuels Q3 Loss, Write-Off Likely to Be $9+ Billion; More Red Ink to Flow, as O&G Has $25 Billion of Goodwill on Balance Sheet Executive Summary General Electric, once a blue-chip stalwart in global markets, now struggles with declining revenues and earnings. One important thread that runs through the tattered cloth of GE’s decline is its misreading of changing dynamics in the energy sector. Throughout the ongoing energy transition, as GE has continued to bet heavily on fossil fuels, many of those bets have turned sour for the company and its shareholders. GE’s Oil & Gas (O&G) division’s 2017 merger with oil services company Baker Hughes was a particularly costly bet, one that epitomizes how GE has been blind-sided by the rapidly evolving energy transition. Over the past year, GE has formally announced it has taken, or will take, losses or write-offs of approximately $9.6 billion (bn)1 in connection with two partial sales of its stake in one of the world’s largest oil services companies, Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE). These losses include the company’s $2.2 bn Q4 2018 pre-tax loss on the first sale of BHGE shares in November 2018, and an estimated pre-tax loss 1 All figures are US$ unless noted.
