GE Vernova (NYSE:GEV), a unique industry leader enabling customers to accelerate the energy transition, today hosts its 2025 Investor Update event to present its 2026 financial guidance and update its outlook by 2028, as well as provide commentary on key longer-term trends.

"At GE Vernova, we are in the early chapters of an incredible value creation opportunity with a stronger financial trajectory ahead," said GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik. "Electric power will be critical to unlocking economic growth in the decades ahead and we are well-positioned with our large installed base and platform of advanced solutions to serve this growing, long-cycle market. We will deliver value in the short term, but I'm most excited about our long-term potential as we focus on value-accretive capital allocation to drive growth and innovation while delivering shareholder returns. We are executing efficiently, and there is more to come as we enter 2026 with significant momentum."

"We are executing our financial strategy, and we now expect to generate at least $22 billion in cumulative free cash flow by 2028," said GE Vernova CFO Ken Parks. "Our large and growing backlog, with healthy margins from services and better equipment pricing, is furthering our momentum into 2026 and driving our increased outlook by 2028. We remain committed to maintaining an investment grade balance sheet as we make organic investments, pursue targeted M&A, and return at least one third of cash generation to shareholders through our higher dividend and increased share repurchase program."

Financial Outlook

Today, GE Vernova reaffirms its 2025 revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin* guidance, raises its 2025 free cash flow* guidance, and presents its 2026 financial guidance. The company also raises its outlook by 2028, as presented at its 2024 Investor Update.

Multi-Year Segment Financial Outlook

GE Vernova also reaffirms its 2025 segment guidance and provides additional multi-year guidance.

All outlooks exclude the impact of the acquisition of the remaining 50% stake of Prolec GE and any related financing, which is expected to close by mid-2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals.

Capital Allocation

GE Vernova's strategic principles for capital allocation continue to include organic investments to drive profitable growth, returning at least one third of cash generation to shareholders, and targeted mergers and acquisitions in core businesses. The GE Vernova Board of Directors has declared a $0.50 per share quarterly dividend, doubling from a $0.25 quarterly dividend, payable on February 2, 2026, to shareholders of record as of January 5, 2026. The Board of Directors has also approved a share repurchase authorization increase to $10 billion, from the prior authorization of $6 billion. GE Vernova has spent $3.3 billion of the authorization as of December 3, 2025.

Growth Beyond 2028

GE Vernova is well-positioned to deliver substantially higher returns beyond 2028, including from its:

• Large and growing equipment and services backlog, which is expected to reach approximately $200 billion by year-end 2028.
• More profitable, recurring Gas Power services revenue beginning in the 2030s.
• Expanded investments into artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation.
• Focus on developing and commercializing breakthrough energy technologies, including small modular nuclear reactors, carbon capture, solid oxide fuel cells, and grid-related technologies to support data centers and grid modernization.

GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik and CFO Ken Parks will present live from New York City, beginning at 4:30 PM ET today. The event will also be webcast, and accompanying materials and a replay can be accessed on GE Vernova's Investor Relations website here.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this document, the Company sometimes uses information derived from consolidated financial data but not presented in its 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 (SEC) rules. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement the Company's GAAP disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to the GAAP measure. The reasons the Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in this press release and GE Vernova's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC and any updates or amendments it makes in future filings.

2025 and 2026 Guidance and Outlook by 2028: Adjusted EBITDA margin*

We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures expectations and the corresponding GAAP financial measures for adjusted EBITDA margin* in the 2025 and 2026 guidance and outlook by 2028 without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of the costs and timing associated with potential restructuring actions and the impacts of depreciation and amortization.

2025 and 2026 Guidance and Outlook by 2028: Free cash flow*​

We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures expectations and the corresponding GAAP financial measure for free cash flow* in the 2025 and 2026 guidance and outlook for cumulative free cash flow* from 2025 through 2028 without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of timing for capital expenditures.

2025 and 2026 Guidance: Power and Electrification organic revenue*

We cannot provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures expectations and the corresponding GAAP financial measure of Power and Electrification organic revenue* for 2025 and 2026 without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of foreign exchange rates.
