CAMBRIDGE, Mass., (Apr. 25, 2024) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV), a unique industry leader enabling customers to accelerate the energy transition, today reported financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2024.

“We delivered solid results with significant margin expansion across each segment, and I am pleased with the progress we are making as an independent company following our April 2 spin-off from GE. The energy transition is a growing, exciting market and GE Vernova is well-positioned to lead,” said GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik. “In 2024, we will continue to execute our strategy with sustainability, innovation, and lean at our core. With the combination of strong market demand and operational improvement in our businesses, we are electrifying and decarbonizing the world while delivering an attractive multi-year financial trajectory. I’m grateful to the entire GE Vernova team for their hard work to support our customers and stakeholders.”

GE Vernova reaffirmed its 2024 financial guidance for revenue of $34-35 billion, adjusted EBITDA margin* at the high end of mid-single digits, cash from operating activities of $1.5-1.9 billion, and free cash flow* of $0.7-1.1 billion. Additionally, GE Vernova reaffirmed segment guidance of:

•Power: mid-single digit organic revenue* growth with ~100bps of organic EBITDA margin* expansion.

•Wind: flat organic revenue* growth, approaching profitability.

•Electrification: low double-digit organic revenue* growth with mid-single digit segment EBITDA margins.

(a) Reflects earnings (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis. On April 2, 2024, there were approximately 274 million shares of GE Vernova common stock outstanding. The computation of earnings (loss) per common share for all periods through March 31, 2024 was calculated using 274 million common shares and is net of Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, the Company participated in various GE stock-based compensation plans. It is assumed that there are no dilutive equity instruments as there were no equity awards of GE Vernova outstanding prior to Spin-Off. Outstanding equity instruments may convert into equity instruments of the Company after the Spin-Off and be included in the diluted earnings per share calculation in future reporting periods to the extent such equity instruments are dilutive.

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

Orders of $5.0 billion increased +25%, +24% organically, with higher equipment orders from increased HA and Aeroderivative gas turbines. Revenues of $4.0 billion increased +6%, +4% organically*, led by higher Gas Power services with higher outages and stronger pricing. Segment EBITDA was $0.3 billion and segment EBITDA margin was 8.6%, up +400 basis points, +340 basis points organically*, with higher Gas Power services volume, favorable price and productivity more than offsetting inflation.

Orders of $1.1 billion declined (40)% reported and organically driven by lower Onshore Wind equipment, as North American customers continue to site and permit projects. Revenues of $1.6 billion declined (6)%, (7)% organically*, from lower Onshore Wind equipment volume, partially offset by higher Offshore Wind equipment and Wind services. Segment EBITDA was $(0.2) billion and segment EBITDA margin was (10.6)%, up +420 basis points, +400 basis points organically*, from continued cost reduction and improved pricing, with Onshore Wind positive for a third consecutive quarter.

Orders of $3.6 billion declined (7)%, (10)% organically, with lower large HVDC orders, partially offset by strong grid demand. Revenues of $1.7 billion grew +24%, +21% organically*, due to growth in Grid Solutions. Segment EBITDA was $0.1 billion and segment EBITDA margin was 4.0%, up +630 basis points, +600 basis points organically*, due to rising volume, price, and productivity.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release are supplemental measures of our performance and our liquidity that we believe help investors understand our financial condition and operating results and assess our future prospects. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures, are important supplemental measures that exclude non-cash or other items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and the overall health of our company. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors greater transparency to the information used by management for its operational decision-making and allows investors to see our results “through the eyes of management.” We further believe that providing this information assists our investors in understanding our operating performance and the methodology used by management to evaluate and measure such performance. When read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results, these non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses and can be used by management as one basis for financial, operational and planning decisions. Finally, these measures are often used by analysts and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.

Management recognizes that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, including that they may be calculated differently by other companies or may be used under different circumstances or for different purposes, thereby affecting their comparability from company to company. In order to compensate for these and the other limitations discussed below, management does not consider these measures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Readers should review the reconciliations below and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. The reasons we use these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures follow. Unless otherwise noted, tables are presented in U.S. dollars in millions, except for per-share amounts which are presented in U.S. dollars. Certain columns and rows within tables may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented in this report are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions.

We believe the organic measures presented below 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, which includes translational and transactional impacts, as these activities can obscure underlying trends.

(a) Includes intersegment sales of $78 million and $90 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA* and Adjusted EBITDA margin*, which are adjusted to exclude the effects of unique and/or non-cash items that are not closely associated with ongoing operations provide management and investors with meaningful measures of our performance that increase the period-to-period comparability by highlighting the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability factors. We believe Adjusted organic EBITDA* and Adjusted organic EBITDA margin* provide management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by further excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, which includes translational and transactional impacts, as these activities can obscure underlying trends.

We believe these measures provide additional insight into how our businesses are performing, on a normalized basis. However, Adjusted EBITDA*, Adjusted organic EBITDA*, Adjusted EBITDA margin* and Adjusted organic EBITDA margin* should not be construed as inferring that our future results will be unaffected by the items for which the measures adjust.

We believe Adjusted net income* and Adjusted net income margin* provide investors with improved comparability of underlying operating results and a further understanding and additional transparency regarding how we evaluate our business. Adjusted net income* also provides management and investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain significant items on our earnings. Adjusted net income* excludes non-operating benefit income, certain tax expenses, and unique and/or non-cash items, that can have a material impact on our results. In addition, we may from time to time consider excluding other nonrecurring items to enhance comparability between periods. However, Adjusted net income* and Adjusted net income margin* should not be construed as inferring that our future results will be unaffected by the items for which the measures adjust.

We believe Adjusted earnings (loss) per share* provides investors with improved comparability of underlying operating results and a further understanding and additional transparency regarding how we evaluate our business. Adjusted earnings (loss) per share* also provides management and investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain significant items on our per share earnings (loss). Adjusted earnings (loss) per share* excludes non-operating benefit income, certain tax expenses, and unique and/or non-cash items that can have a material impact on our results. In addition, we may from time to time consider excluding other nonrecurring items to enhance comparability between periods. However, Adjusted earnings (loss) per share* should not be construed as inferring that our future results will be unaffected by the items for which the measure adjusts.

We believe that free cash flow* provides management and investors with an important measure of our ability to generate cash on a normalized basis. Free cash flow* also provides insight into our ability to produce cash subsequent to fulfilling our capital obligations; however, free cash flow* does not delineate funds available for discretionary uses as it does not deduct the payments required for certain investing and financing activities.

2024 GUIDANCE: FREE CASH FLOW (NON-GAAP)

We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measure for organic EBITDA margin* expansion for the Power segment in the 2024 outlook without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of foreign exchange rates.

•Actual or perceived quality issues or safety failures related to our complex and specialized products, solutions and services;

•Market developments or customer actions that may affect our ability to achieve our anticipated operational cost savings and implement initiatives to control or reduce operating costs;

•Significant disruptions in the Company’s supply chain, including the high cost or unavailability of raw materials, components, and products essential to our business, and significant disruptions to our manufacturing and production facilities and distribution networks;

•Our ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel;

•Shifts in market and other dynamics related to electrification, decarbonization or sustainability;

•The amount and timing of our cash flows and earnings, which may be impacted by macroeconomic, customer, supplier, competitive, contractual and other dynamics and conditions;

•Actions by our joint venture arrangements, consortiums, and similar collaborations with third parties for certain projects that result in additional costs and obligations;

•Any reductions or modifications to, or the elimination of, governmental incentives or policies that support renewable energy and energy transition innovation and technology;

•Our ability to develop and introduce new technologies to meet market demand and evolving customer needs;

•Changes in law, regulation or policy that may affect our businesses, such as trade policy and tariffs, regulation and incentives related to sustainability, climate change (including the impact or status of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 and other policies), environmental, health and safety laws, and the effects of tax law changes;

•Our ability and challenges to manage the transition as a newly stand-alone public company or achieve some or all of the benefits we expect to achieve from such transition;

•The risk of an active trading market not developing or being sustained or significant volatility in our stock price; and

•The impact related to information technology, cybersecurity or data security breaches at GE Vernova or third parties.

These or other uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements, and these and other factors are more fully discussed in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections included in our information statement dated March 8, 2024, which was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to a Current Report on Form 8-K furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 8, 2024 as may be updated from time to time in our SEC filings and as posted on our website at www.gevernova.com/investors/fls.
