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.

(a) Includes intersegment sales of $166 million and $103 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

(a) Includes intersegment sales of $483 million and $414 million for the years ended December 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, 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.

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.

2025 GUIDANCE: FREE CASH FLOW (NON-GAAP) 
We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure expectations and the corresponding GAAP financial measure for free cash flow* in the 2025 guidance without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of timing for capital expenditures.

• 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.

   

Total Company Results

(a) The computation of earnings (loss) per share for all periods through April 1, 2024 was calculated using 274 million common shares that were issued upon Spin-Off and excludes Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, the Company participated in various GE stock-based compensation plans. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, there were no dilutive equity instruments as there were no equity awards of GE Vernova outstanding prior to Spin-Off.

Results by Reporting Segment

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

Power

Third Quarter 2024 Power Performance
Orders of $5.2 billion increased +34% organically, led by Gas Power equipment and services, with 9 HA and 15 aeroderivative units, and services growth +29% organically. Revenues of $4.2 billion increased +8%, +13% organically*, led by Gas Power, with increased services, largely from higher outage volume, and equipment growth on higher HA deliveries. Segment EBITDA was $0.5 billion and segment EBITDA margin was 11.9%, up +470 basis points, +240 basis points organically*, with higher volume, productivity, and price more than offsetting inflation.

Wind

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.

Electrification

Third Quarter 2024 Electrification Performance
Orders of $2.5 billion increased +17% organically, driven by higher demand for grid equipment and services. Revenues of $1.9 billion grew +22%, +24% organically*, driven by Grid Solutions and Power Conversion. Segment EBITDA was $0.2 billion and segment EBITDA margin was 10.4%, up +630 basis points, +660 basis points organically*, due to strong volume and continued price and productivity. The Electrification segment delivered its first quarter of double-digit EBITDA margin, with expansion in each business.

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.

(a) Includes intersegment sales of $120 million and $106 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

(a) Includes intersegment sales of $317 million and $311 million for the nine months ended September 30, 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, 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.

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: ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN* AND POWER SEGMENT ORGANIC EBITDA MARGIN*
We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures expectations and the corresponding GAAP financial measures for each of Adjusted EBITDA margin* and Power segment organic EBITDA margin* in the 2024 guidance without unreasonable effort in either case due to, as applicable, the uncertainty of foreign exchange rates, the costs and timing associated with potential restructuring actions and the impacts of depreciation and amortization.

2024 GUIDANCE: FREE CASH FLOW (NON-GAAP)
We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure expectations and the corresponding GAAP financial measure for free cash flow* in the 2024 guidance without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of timing for capital expenditures.

• 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;
• Our ability to obtain required permits, licenses and registrations;
• 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, environmental, health and safety laws, and 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 being sustained for our securities 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 our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, and 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 attached 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.

Today, GE Vernova released its second quarter 2024 earnings results. We delivered strong results in the second quarter with margin expansion across all segments, and substantial cash flow improvement, both sequentially and year-over-year. We also raised our full-year 2024 guidance for revenue, adjusted EBITDA margin* and free cash flow* (FCF).

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights:

• Total orders of $11.8B exceeded revenue by 1.4X
• Total revenue of $8.2B, +1%, +2% organically*, led by services growing +7%, +9% organically*
• Net income of $1.3B, +$1.4B; net income margin of 15.6%, +1,740 bps
• Adjusted EBITDA* of $0.5B, +$0.3B organically*; adjusted EBITDA margin* of 6.4%, +320 bps organically*
• Cash from operating activities of $1.0B, +$1.3B; positive free cash flow* (FCF) of $0.8B, +$1.3B, from working capital and increased adjusted EBITDA*
• $5.8 billion cash balance, up from $4.2 billion upon spin-off from GE on April 2

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., (July 24, 2024) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV), a unique industry leader enabling customers to accelerate the energy transition, today reported financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2024.

“GE Vernova delivered another strong quarter with EBITDA margin expansion across all segments and substantial cash improvement,” said GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik. “Global electrification and decarbonization trends continue to drive demand for our products and services, and we are delivering value for our stakeholders. Our lean operating model is focused on improving safety, quality, delivery and cost as we execute for our customers and innovate breakthrough energy transition technologies. Given our strong first half performance and momentum in our Power and Electrification segments, we are raising our full-year 2024 guidance.”

In the second quarter, GE Vernova orders of $11.8 billion decreased (7)% organically, primarily due to a large Offshore Wind equipment order in the second quarter of last year that was canceled in the fourth quarter. Services orders increased double-digits, led by Power and Electrification. Revenue of $8.2 billion was up +1%, +2% organically*, driven by continued strength in Electrification and Power and positive price in all three segments. Services revenue grew +7%, +9% organically*, with growth across all segments. Margins expanded by more than 300 basis points from productivity, price and services volume. Cash flow improved by more than $1.0 billion, sequentially and year-over-year, driven by working capital and adjusted EBITDA* growth.

Power

• Orders of $5.0 billion increased +30% organically from Gas Power and Hydro Power equipment and double-digit services order growth. Revenues of $4.5 billion increased +8%, +10% organically*, led by higher Gas Power services and equipment.
• Commissioned its one hundredth HA gas turbine, part of the fastest growing fleet in the H-Class segment with the highest number of units ordered, bringing its global installed H-Class capacity to more than 53 gigawatts.

Wind

• Orders of $2.2 billion decreased (44)% organically, primarily driven by the large Offshore Wind order in the second quarter of last year and slightly lower Onshore Wind orders. Revenues of $2.1 billion decreased (21)%, (20)% organically*, from lower Onshore Wind deliveries, partially offset by Offshore Wind backlog[1] execution.
• Booked 1.8GW of wind turbine orders, including repowering, while continuing to implement selectivity, lean and pricing.

Electrification

• Backlog¹ grew 35% year-over-year on orders of $4.8 billion, which decreased (5)% organically, primarily driven by higher High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) orders in the second quarter of last year. Revenues of $1.8 billion increased +19% reported and organically*, with strength in Grid Solutions and Power Conversion equipment.
• Secured a major order from Sonelgaz, through the GE Algeria Turbines (GEAT) joint venture, for high voltage grid equipment and solutions for 134 substations in Algeria by 2028. 

Company Updates:

In the second quarter of 2024, GE Vernova:

• Experienced two fatalities and updated its Life Saving Rules as fatality-free operations remain a top priority.
• Completed the sale of part of its Steam Power nuclear activities to Electricité de France S.A. (EDF). In connection with the disposition, we received net cash proceeds of $0.6 billion, subject to customary working capital and other post-close adjustments. As a result, GE Vernova recognized a pre-tax gain of $0.9 billion.
• Invested $0.2 billion in capital expenditures to prepare for outages and increase capacity in Power and Electrification.
• Funded $0.2 billion in research and development (R&D) spending to continue advancing breakthrough energy transition technologies.
• Received approximately $0.3 billion, related to an outcome of an arbitration with a multiemployer pension plan (the Fund) that remains in dispute.

"We’re very encouraged by our first half results as we execute on our strategy to deliver disciplined revenue growth with increased profitability and positive cash generation. Strong working capital management and higher EBITDA drove significant cash improvement in the second quarter. Based on our performance, we are now trending towards the higher end of our revenue guidance for 2024 and have increased our expectations for adjusted EBITDA margins and free cash flow,” said GE Vernova CFO Ken Parks. “We remain focused on strategic capital allocation and are committed to maintaining our investment-grade balance sheet.”

Guidance:

GE Vernova is raising its 2024 financial guidance and now expects revenue to trend towards the higher end of $34-$35 billion and adjusted EBITDA margin* of 5%-7%, up from the higher end of mid-single digits. Additionally, GE Vernova now expects free cash flow* of $1.3-$1.7 billion, up from $0.7-$1.1 billion. Segment guidance is:

• Power: mid-single digit organic revenue* growth and ~150-200 basis points of organic EBITDA margin* expansion, up from ~100 basis points.
• Wind: flat organic revenue* growth, approaching profitability.
• Electrification: mid- to high-teen organic revenue* growth, up from low double-digits, and high single-digit EBITDA margin, up from mid-single digits.

Results by Reporting Segment

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

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.

We believe Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses* provides investors with improved comparability of underlying operating results and a further understanding and additional transparency regarding how we evaluate our business. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses* also provides management and investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain significant items on our expenses. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses* excludes unique and/or non-cash items that can have a material impact on our results. However, Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses* should not be construed as inferring that our future results will be unaffected by the items for which the measure adjusts.
