General Electric\u2019s third-quarter earnings came in above expectations almost across the board, in excellent timing ahead of the company splitting into two separate businesses. Earnings, profit and revenue were all up, and the company\u2019s full-year guidance was raised in return.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t all plain sailing, though, with the company cutting growth forecasts for jet engine deliveries this year as supply chain woes still hit the sector. Wall Street didn\u2019t mind, though, with GE\u2019s stock price climbing higher on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the lowdown on the GE earnings, the stock market reaction and how the GE beat is a sign of the U.S.\u2019 continued industrial prowess.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">What happened with GE\u2019s earnings?<\/h2>\n<p><fbs-ad position=\"inread\" progressive=\"\" ad-id=\"article-0-inread\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\"><\/fbs-ad><\/p>\n<p>GE investors had a good day this week. The company posted a strong third quarter, with adjusted earnings per share of 82 cents from sales of $16.5 billion. The consensus estimate from analysts was 56 cents on sales of $15.5 billion, a big leap upward for GE.<\/p>\n<p>As for future guidance, it was more good news as GE raised its full-year earnings guidance for the second quarter in a row. The company now expects a range of $2.55 to $2.65 a share, a bump from last quarter\u2019s previous guidance of $2.10 to $2.30. GE also raised its free cash flow estimates again to $4.9 billion, another jump from the $4.4 billion prediction in Q2.<\/p>\n<p>Of the earnings report, GE CEO Larry Culp said that the company had \u201cdelivered another quarter of very strong results with double-digit growth in revenue, profit, and cash\u201d and is \u201cmore excited than ever about our path ahead\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Smooth sailing ahead for the GE spinoff<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s all good news ahead of the company\u2019s planned spinoff of GE\u2019s renewable power and gas power generation business, GE Vernova, which is anticipated to be completed by Q2 next year. That\u2019s slightly later than the previous timescale issued by GE, but the conglomerate announced some leadership appointments back in August, which should give investors hope.<\/p>\n<p>After the spinoff is completed, GE will become GE Aerospace. GE saw aerospace orders worth $9.8 billion for this sector in the third quarter, above the $8.4 billion anticipated. However, the company has cut down its growth forecast for its LEAP jet engine deliveries for the remainder of 2023 and into next year as well, citing supply chain snags as demand booms.<\/p>\n<p>GE is now aiming for a 20% to 25% year-on-year increase in deliveries, according to Culp, instead of 40% to 45% &#8211; that\u2019s quite the downgrade. GE\u2019s renewable power division is still making a loss as well, posting an operating profit of minus 7.6% &#8211; but still an improvement from the negative 26% from the same time last year.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">What was the stock market reaction?<\/h2>\n<p>Wall Street was more than happy with what it saw &#8211; and the stakes were high, given GE\u2019s share price has soared over 85% since the start of the year. GE stock climbed another 5.3% on Tuesday, compared to the S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both gaining 0.5%.<\/p>\n<p>GE has certainly outshined its competitors in 2023. Since the start of the year, Schneider Electric&#8217;s stock has risen 5.21%, and Siemens is currently down over 1%. Boeing has seen a 6.7% drop in its share price, and Lockheed Martin has fallen by 7.7%.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">U.S. industrial output bucks the trend<\/h2>\n<p>GE\u2019s decent earnings report is a good sign for the wider sector, which has seen the U.S. pull ahead on the world stage with its industrial output. Production at U.S. factories rose by more than anticipated in September, with manufacturing output increasing by 0.4%, according to the Fed.<\/p>\n<p>The S&amp;P Global also announced its flash U.S. Composite Purchasing Managers Index, tracking the manufacturing and service sectors, rose to a score of 51.0 in October, the highest level since July. The survey\u2019s manufacturing PMI also rose to 50, the highest score since April.<\/p>\n<p>Later this week, we\u2019ll also get the Commerce Department\u2019s scorecard for economic activity in Q3, which analysts predict will show that U.S. GDP growth was the highest in two years between July and September.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all giving hope that the U.S. economy will achieve the fabled soft landing after the Fed raised interest rates to their highest level in 22 years, with a target of 5.25% to 5.5%.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">The bottom line<\/h2>\n<p>GE\u2019s earnings beat is good news all around, despite a couple of concerns about renewable energy profitability and aerospace deliveries. The company needed to pass a high bar to keep Wall Street happy &#8211; plus it bodes well for the eventual spinoff, even if it is happening slightly later than planned.<\/p>\n<p>The earnings beat also helps to feed into the idea that the U.S. economy is still resilient and the manufacturing sector is recovering from high inflation, high interest rates and supply chain woes &#8211; which is good news for the Fed ahead of its meeting in November.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/qai\/2023\/10\/25\/ge-reports-stellar-earnings-ahead-of-breaking-into-two-companies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key takeaways General Electric reported better-than-expected earnings and sales, raising its full-year guidance The company is set to split into two businesses by Q2 next year GE\u2019s share price rose 5.3% at the earnings beat Talk about an earnings beat.
