CAMBRIDGE, Mass., (October 23, 2024) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV), a unique industry leader enabling customers to accelerate the energy transition, today reported financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2024.

“GE Vernova had a solid third quarter, delivering double-digit orders and continued revenue growth with services strength across all segments, significant margin expansion in Power and Electrification, and substantial cash generation,” said GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik. “We continued to leverage lean to drive operational improvements across safety, quality, delivery and cost, and released our first GE Vernova sustainability report, outlining our progress in helping to electrify and decarbonize the world. It is an exciting time in our industry and I appreciate the work our team is doing to serve growing customer demand for energy transition technologies and services, while creating value for our stakeholders.”

In the third quarter, GE Vernova orders of $9.4 billion increased +17% organically, driven by services growth +28% organically, with strength across all segments, and equipment growth in Power and Electrification. Revenue of $8.9 billion was up +8%, +10% organically*, with growth in equipment and services and continued positive price in all three segments. Services revenue grew +7%, +10% organically*. Margins expanded in Power, Electrification and Onshore Wind, offset primarily by incremental contract losses in Offshore Wind. Cash flow improved meaningfully by approximately $0.9 billion, primarily driven by strong working capital management.

Power

  • Orders of $5.2 billion increased +34% organically and revenues of $4.2 billion increased +8%, +13% organically*, led by higher Gas Power services and equipment. Segment EBITDA margin grew +470 basis points, +240 basis points organically*.
  • Secured a 1.8 GW order for three H-class gas turbines, to modernize the Nanko power station in Osaka, Japan.

Wind

  • Orders of $1.7 billion decreased (19)% organically due to lower Onshore Wind equipment, and revenues of $2.9 billion were flat, down (1)% organically*, driven by Offshore Wind. Segment EBITDA losses increased due to incremental Offshore Wind contract losses, partially offset by a settlement agreement regarding a previously canceled offshore project and Onshore Wind, which delivered its most profitable quarter in a number of years.
  • Signed an agreement to supply 38 workhorse turbines for the 228 MW Boulder Creek Wind Farm in Queensland, Australia.

Electrification

  • Orders of $2.5 billion increased +17% organically, driven by growing demand for grid equipment and services, and revenues of $1.9 billion increased +22%, +24% organically*, primarily driven by Grid Solutions. Segment EBITDA margin grew +630 basis points, +660 basis points organically*.
  • Launched a new valve manufacturing line in Stafford, UK to begin increasing production capacity to nearly double and support growing demand for HVDC technology.

Company Updates:

In the third quarter of 2024, GE Vernova:

  • Experienced one fatality; remains committed to fatality-free operations and deploying Life Saving Rules.
  • Released its first 2023 Sustainability Report, outlining goals for its four-pillar sustainability framework and introducing its “Control Room,” a new sustainability management system.
  • Monetized a 16% ownership stake in GE Vernova T&D India Limited, part of the Electrification segment, in an ongoing process to simplify entity shareholding structure and capitalize on strong equity valuations in India, resulting in approximately $0.7 billion of pre-tax proceeds.
  • Invested $0.2 billion in capital expenditures including initiatives to expand capacity.
  • Funded $0.2 billion in research and development (R&D) spending to advance breakthrough energy transition technologies.

"We’re encouraged by our results this year as we execute on our strategy to deliver disciplined revenue growth with increased profitability and positive cash generation. In the third quarter, we increased our already solid cash balance to $7.4 billion from substantial positive free cash flow and proceeds from the value-accretive sale of a stake in a business in India, and we remain committed to maintaining our investment grade balance sheet,” said GE Vernova CFO Ken Parks. “With strong performance in Power and Electrification offsetting additional losses in Wind this quarter, we are reaffirming our GE Vernova 2024 financial guidance. We look forward to providing an update on strategic capital allocation and our multi-year financial outlook at our investor update event in December.”

Guidance:

GE Vernova is reaffirming its 2024 financial guidance of revenue trending towards the higher end of $34-$35 billion,  adjusted EBITDA margin* of 5%-7%, and free cash flow* of $1.3-$1.7 billion, now trending towards the higher end of the free cash flow* range. Segment guidance is:

  • Power: maintain mid-single digit organic revenue* growth and higher end of ~150-200 basis points of organic segment EBITDA margin* expansion.
  • Wind: maintain flat organic revenue* and approaching profitability with nearly 50% segment EBITDA improvement.
  • Electrification: now expect high-teens organic revenue* growth, up from mid-to high-teens, and maintain higher end of high single-digit segment EBITDA margin.

Third Quarter 2024 Wind Performance
Orders of $1.7 billion decreased (19)% organically, due to lower Onshore Wind equipment orders outside of North America. Revenues of $2.9 billion were flat, down (1)% organically*, due to slower execution in Offshore Wind, partially offset by an approximately $0.5 billion settlement, which included recovery of costs previously incurred on the canceled offshore project. Onshore Wind revenues increased from higher repower deliveries. Segment EBITDA was $(0.3) billion and segment EBITDA margin was (11.0)%, down (320) basis points, (410) basis points organically*, primarily due to incremental contract losses of approximately $(0.7) billion in Offshore Wind, partially offset by a gain recorded on the settlement of the canceled offshore project, which positively impacted segment EBITDA by $0.3 billion, and increases at Onshore Wind.

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 allow 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.

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, when considered with Adjusted EBITDA* and Adjusted EBITDA margin*, 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.

GE Vernova and Mass Group Holding celebrate the progress of the modernization of the largest power plant in Iraq

9 min read
  • The upgrades at Mass Group Holding’s Besmaya power plant are part a broader strategy by Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity to modernize power generation infrastructure and meet growing demand

  • With the completion of Phase 1 and the initiation of Phase 2 Advanced Gas Path (AGP) upgrades, the modernization can increase power plant output by 6 percent, while improving its fuel efficiency

  • An eight-year service agreement for Phase 3 announced 

Dubai, United Arab Emirates (October 10, 2024) — In conjunction with a ceremony held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Mass Group Holding (MGH) and GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) announced significant progress on the modernization of the 4.5 gigawatts (GW) Besmaya Power Plant in Baghdad, Iraq, the country’s largest power plant. GE Vernova has successfully completed the Phase 1 Advanced Gas Path (AGP) upgrades on four 9F.04 gas turbines and started Phase 2 AGP upgrades on an additional four 9F.04 gas turbines.

During the ceremony, GE Vernova and MGH also announced an eight-year services agreement to support the plant’s Phase 3, which is equipped with four GE Vernova 9F gas turbines. The Phase 3 service agreement was contracted in the second quarter of 2024 and builds on prior operations and maintenance (O&M) and long-term service agreements GE Vernova secured for Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the project.

GE Vernova’s 9F Phase 1 AGP upgrades successfully installed at the Besmaya plant, deliver industry-leading performance and operational flexibility, enhancing efficiency and availability, as well as output by up to 6%, while improving the efficiency of fuel consumption and extending the lifespan of assets. With the completion of Phase 2 expected in the first quarter of 2025, the eight 9F turbines are expected to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by up to 477,000 metric tons annually for the same level of power production.

Ziad Ali Fadhil, Iraqi Minister of Electricity, said: “This modernization project aligns with our strategic goals and represents a significant milestone in Iraq’s energy transition. It enables additional electricity production and improves fuel efficiency, thereby reducing carbon intensity.”

During the ceremony event, Ahmed Ismail Saleh, Chairman of Mass Group Holding, said: “Besmaya power plant, in collaboration with Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity, is crucial in providing electricity to the people of Iraq and various commercial and industrial sectors. We are committed to further enhancing efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability in Iraq’s energy sector. This modernization project is in line with the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity’s strategic plans to provide more reliable and more sustainable electricity, which is essential for the country’s economic development.”

“The upgrades in phase 1 of Besmaya Power Plant marked our first ever “Live Outage” in Iraq, a new digital approach that improves the field execution experience for our teams and our customers,” said Steve Kessinger, Vice President and CEO, GE Vernova’s Gas Power Global Services. “The service work, completed ahead of schedule, has significantly enhanced the efficiency and performance of the plant and we look forward to continuing our collaboration with Mass Group Holding to achieve even greater results.”

“For nearly two decades, GE Vernova has collaborated closely with Mass Group Holding in Iraq, supplying advanced technology to four of the group’s power plants located in Besmaya, Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, and Dohuk. These facilities collectively contribute approximately 9 gigawatts to Iraq’s power generation capacity,” said Joseph Anis, President and CEO of Gas Power at GE Vernova for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. “GE Vernova has been working in Iraq for more than five decades and remains committed to supporting the transition to lower-carbon solutions for the benefit of the people of Iraq. This also includes modernizing the grid, enabling the digital transformation of power generation and transmission.”

Over the past years, GE Vernova has added up to 19 GW to Iraq’s grid, constructed and energized 30 substations, and completed the first phase of Iraq’s electrical grid connection with Jordan. The company has mobilized over US$3 billion in financing for energy projects and continues to invest in local talent development and workforce training. Working closely with Iraq’s Ministry of Electricity and private sector companies like Mass Group Holding, GE Vernova remains dedicated to advancing the country’s energy sector and supporting economic development.

New GE Vernova H-Class technology to modernize power plant in Japan

6 min read
  • Three GE Vernova 7HA.03 gas turbines to be installed at The Kansai Electric Power Company, Incorporated in Osaka, Japan

  • Replacement of aging conventional LNG power generation assets (consisting of three boilers and three steam turbines) with GE Vernova advanced equipment is expected to improve power plant performance and lower CO2 emissions

TOKYO, JAPAN (October 8, 2024) — GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) today announced an order for three GE Vernova 7HA.03 gas turbines to be installed at The Kansai Electric Power Company, Inc.’s (“Kansai Electric”) Nanko power station in Osaka, Japan. GE Vernova’s advanced 7HA.03 power generation equipment will replace the existing aging conventional LNG power generation assets (consisting of three boilers and three steam turbines) and is expected to increase power plant efficiency, while reducing its carbon dioxide emissions.

Japan has set ambitious targets to achieve net zero by 2050 as per the latest Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) plans.  As recently described in GE Vernova’s “2024 Japan Energy Outlook” White Paper, the Japan’s energy system is in transition, and the country has targeted  achieving this decarbonization goal through setting up investments in lower carbon generation sources and the support of “Economic Efficiency”, one of the three “S+3E” pillars within the revised national 6th Strategic Energy Plan (including also “Safety plus Energy Security”, and “Environmental Sustainability”).

“The plant is expected to deliver up to 1.8 gigawatts (GW) of electricity to the grid in total and to be the among the most efficient in the country,” said Ramesh Singaram, President and CEO, Asia of GE Vernova’s Gas Power. “In addition, 7HA.03 gas turbine technology currently has the capability to burn up to 50% by volume of hydrogen when blended with natural gas, with a technology pathway to 100% over the next decade. We look forward to bringing this advanced technology to Kansai Electric, with whom we have a longstanding relationship built on years of mutual respect and trust, to help revitalize the Japanese power industry with more efficient and more sustainable technology, in alignment with the country’s energy goals.”

In addition, GE Vernova is also expected to provide field services.

GE Vernova is a key player in Japan’s energy transition, having enabled power generation for Japan for more than 130 years. To date, the company delivers more than 50% of Japan’s heavy duty gas power capacity and supports the country’s growing renewable and nuclear energy needs.

GE Vernova signs agreement to supply turbines for 228 MW Boulder Creek Wind Farm in Australia

7 min read
  • Project to use GE Vernova’s 6 MW–164m workhorse turbine

  • Queensland wind farm deal includes five-year full-service agreement

  • Power for equivalent of 85,000 homes

  • First project-financed split-scope wind farm in Australia

BRISBANE, Australia (September 30, 2024) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) announced today that it has signed an agreement with Aula Energy and CS Energy to provide 38 6 MW–164m1 workhorse turbines for their Boulder Creek Wind Farm in Queensland, Australia.

Boulder Creek is the first standalone project-financed split-scope wind farm in Australia, representing a milestone in the evolution of the nation’s wind market and underscoring GE Vernova’s commitment to partnership and flexibility in aligning global delivery models to create value for customers in the country.

The project, located 40km south-west of Rockhampton, brings the total number of GE Vernova 6 MW platform turbines in operation or under construction in Australia to more than 250. The deal, which was booked in the third quarter of 2024, includes a five-year full-service agreement.

The wind farm is expected to supply power for the equivalent of 85,000 Australian homes2, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 379,000 tonnes CO2 equivalent each year3, comparable to taking more than 130,000 petrol cars off the road4.

GE Vernova worked closely with Aula Energy, Powerlink Queensland and the Australian Energy Market Operator to achieve the grid offer-to-connect well in advance of project financial close, building off grid approvals secured for the 6 MW platform in New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia.

“We are delighted to be working closely together with our customers, CS Energy and Aula Energy to bring reliable and affordable wind energy to Australia to increase the renewable energy mix. This project is another example of GE Vernova’s ability to deliver on our workhorse strategy – producing fewer variants in large quantities at scale to drive quality and reliability across the fleet for our customers. With a broad cross portfolio of capabilities underpinned by world-leading technology, GE Vernova is uniquely positioned to help lead the energy transition,” says Gilan Sabatier, Chief Commercial Officer, Onshore Wind, GE Vernova.

CS Energy Chief Executive Officer Darren Busine said, “Our investment in the Boulder Creek Wind Farm demonstrates our ongoing commitment to central Queensland and providing opportunities for our people and local communities to share the benefits of the energy transformation.”

GE Vernova releases inaugural Sustainability Report

9 min read
  • GE Vernova’s first Sustainability Report offers comprehensive overview of company’s mission to electrify and decarbonize the world

  • Outlines four-pillar sustainability framework - Electrify, Decarbonize, Conserve, and Thrive - with leading goals aimed at aligning business performance with sustainability performance

  • Launches approach to sustainability operations through a new management system called “Control Room”

  • Key metrics from 2023 include bringing 29 GW of generating capacity online, energizing 64 GW of new power transformers, helping avoid approximately 20 million metric tons of CO₂ emissions, and reducing Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 39% vs. 2019 baseline

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (September 18, 2024) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) today released its first-ever sustainability report as a stand-alone company, detailing how it is making progress on its mission to electrify and decarbonize the world. The report explains GE Vernova’s innovative approach to sustainability and outlines ambitious goals built around a four-pillar framework – Electrify, Decarbonize, Conserve, and Thrive. The report also offers an overview of GE Vernova’s broad portfolio of energy solutions across Power, Wind, and Electrification segments, as well as its Accelerator businesses.

“GE Vernova’s purpose and mission to electrify and decarbonize the world has never been clearer or more urgent,” said Scott Strazik, CEO of GE Vernova. “Sustainability is at our core as a company and as a team. We see incredible opportunities for our sustainability framework to create economic value, growth, and performance while at the same time serving the world.”

Some key highlights from the four-pillar sustainability framework include:

  • Electrify:
    • As a company whose technology base helps generate approximately 25 percent of the world’s electricity, the company brought online an additional 29 GW of generating capacity in 2023, roughly equivalent to the total installed generating capacity of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island combined, with 42% in emerging economies.
    • Energized 64 GW of new power transformers, enabling new transmission capacity roughly equivalent to the installed generating capacity of Thailand.
  • Decarbonize:
    • Introduced for the first time, metrics to demonstrate near term progress on improving the trajectory of carbon intensity. These metrics include avoiding approximately 20 million metric tons of CO₂ emissions in first full year of operation from generating capacity brought online last year by using lower-carbon technology[i]. This is roughly equivalent to taking 4.8 million gasoline-powered passenger vehicles off the road for one year.
    • Updated the company’s progress toward its 2050 net zero ambition and its efforts on four breakthrough technologies - hydrogen, carbon capture, direct air capture, and small modular reactors - aiming to be brought into service by the early 2030s. The report also highlights GE Vernova’s more than 150 current Research and Development projects, with over 420 technology collaborators and 84 programs either funded by or in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy.
  • Conserve:
    • Reduced Scope 1 and 2 (market-based) emissions by 39% through its own operations achieved by implementing energy efficiency projects at the site level and renewable energy purchases.
    • Introduced circularity approach, centered around our 4R circularity framework (rethink, reduce, reuse, and recycle), which accounts for the full product life-cycle phases of our products, with a goal to have 90% of its top products covered under Framework by 2030.
  • Thrive:
    • Conducted more than 600 total global audits, approving approximately 580 suppliers following its Supplier Responsibility Governance (SRG) program, which assesses a potential supplier’s practices regarding ethics, compliance, sustainability, human rights, and EHS issues.
    • Donated over 20,000 GE Vernova employee volunteer hours, with more than 1,300 global non/profits supported. In addition, the Next Engineers program successfully facilitated over 7,500 student engagements across cities across the world including, South Carolina, U.S.; Johannesburg, South Africa; and Staffordshire, UK.

The new report expands on the company’s sustainability efforts and its approach to sustainability operations through a new management system called “Control Room.” Modeled after the complex nerve centers that manage the world’s most complex machine, electrical grids, this sustainability management system builds on a rigorous corporate DNA of lean, governance, impact assessments, and sustainability education, all targeting goals aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).

“We recognized that we needed to build a new, modern sustainability program for a new, modern sustainability company.” said Roger Martella, GE Vernova’s Chief Sustainability Officer and head of Global Policy. “Our new Control Room encompasses our comprehensive approach to sustainability, including our Sustainability Framework, guiding principles, stakeholder engagement, and employs Lean to accelerate and sustain higher levels of performance through continuous improvement.”

GE Vernova reaffirms full year 2024 guidance and provides segment updates

8 min read

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (September 12, 2024) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) Chief Executive Officer, Scott Strazik, will present today at the 12th Annual Morgan Stanley Laguna conference in Laguna Beach, California at 8:10 AM PDT.  Strazik will discuss the company’s strategic progress and the robust demand for power generation, services, and grid equipment.

As part of today’s event, GE Vernova reaffirms its full year 2024 financial guidance, with revenue trending towards the higher end of $34-$35 billion, adjusted EBITDA margin* of 5%-7%, and free cash flow* of $1.3-$1.7 billion. The company expects incremental strength in its Power and Electrification segments, with both trending towards the higher end of EBITDA margin guidance, to offset additional costs in its Wind segment, due to the recent Offshore Wind blade events.

For third quarter 2024, GE Vernova still expects solid year-over-year organic revenue* growth with adjusted EBITDA* now relatively flat versus prior year, as a result of the additional Offshore Wind costs. The Wind segment is now expected to generate an approximately $300 million EBITDA loss in the third quarter 2024 given these costs, despite Onshore Wind delivering a fifth straight quarter of profitability. The company expects the Wind segment to be modestly profitable in the fourth quarter.

Additional updates Strazik will share include how Power is expanding capacity to enable delivery of 70 to 80 heavy duty gas turbine units annually starting in 2026, compared to the recent average of approximately 55 shipments annually. Given the strong demand for grid equipment, GE Vernova expects the Electrification equipment backlog1 to more than triple by year end 2024, compared to the $6.4 billion backlog at year end 2022.

Finally, GE Vernova will host an investor event on Tuesday, December 10, 2024, in New York City, to provide an update on the company’s financial outlook and capital allocation strategy.
