PHARMACEUTICAL DIAGNOSTICS.
Our PDx segment supplies contrast and radiopharmaceutical imaging agents to the global radiology and nuclear medicine industries. These agents help clinicians assess patients to enable more precise diagnoses, monitor disease progression, and enable better therapy selection. We distribute products globally that help meet patient and procedural needs across a multitude of modalities. PDx’s diagnostic agents are complementary to the imaging and ultrasound devices we offer, including CT, angiography and X-ray, MR, SPECT, and PET, and are also compatible with systems from other equipment vendors.
PDx operates within a strictly regulated industry with unique operational needs. Diagnostic agents require a sophisticated supply chain for manufacturing, supported by a global infrastructure of commercial, marketing, medical affairs, market access, application, regulatory, and pharmacovigilance teams that help monitor products. Customers require timely and reliable supply of diagnostic agents as shortages or delays can be highly disruptive to workflows and even cause exam cancellations.
Our PDx business develops and produces two types of imaging agents: contrast media and radiopharmaceuticals.
-
Contrast media are pharmaceuticals that are administered to a patient during certain diagnostic scans in order to increase the visibility of tissues or structures in imaging exams. Contrast media increases the diagnostic value of imaging and can be critical in the visualization of small or nuanced areas of diagnostic interest, such as cancer lesions or vascular structures, and to plan medical interventions, such as angioplasties, biopsies, or radiation therapy. We offer contrast media to three imaging modality groups: (1) CT, angiography, and X-ray, (2) MR, and (3) ultrasound. Our business also includes contrast injection devices that are automated devices used to monitor and control the injection of contrast into patients, providing valuable productivity benefits in the imaging suite. We offer contrast injectors through collaborations with third-party original equipment manufacturers.
-
Radiopharmaceuticals, or molecular imaging agents, are molecular tracers labeled with radioisotopes that are injected into a patient prior to a diagnostic imaging scan. These agents work by accumulating in an area of diagnostic interest, such as a tumor, and emitting energy that is detected by a SPECT or PET scanner. Because they have specific molecular targets, they allow visualization and assessment of cell function, providing a more detailed dimension of biological activity. Our radiopharmaceuticals support diagnosis and therapy selection in various care areas, such as neurology, cardiology, and oncology, and are also used by pharmaceutical companies and researchers in selecting target populations for clinical trials.
Our unique combination of imaging equipment and pharmaceutical diagnostics enables building capabilities across disease states through diagnostic pharmaceuticals, hardware, software, and AI-enabled and cloud solutions.
ACQUISITIONS
Our business strategy includes the acquisition of technologies and businesses that expand, accelerate, or complement our existing business. Refer to Note 8, “Acquisitions, Goodwill, and Other Intangible Assets” for further information.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
Our research and development (“R&D”) efforts focus on scientific discovery and research into promising technologies that lead to potential healthcare applications, creating new products, services and solutions, discovery of novel clinical applications for on-market products and solutions, and enhancing our existing products to help improve outcomes for customers and their patients. We employ approximately 11,100 engineers and scientists worldwide, including hardware, systems, and software engineers and personnel focused on clinical research. We deliver value through innovative medical technology solutions across the patient care continuum (including screening, diagnosis, therapy, and monitoring) by leveraging hardware, software, AI, and digital technologies. We engage in and sponsor clinical research and product development through collaborations with academic institutions, medical centers, and other organizations. We occasionally enter into agreements with third parties related to collaboration on R&D activities associated with the development of new or innovative products.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We have a substantial portfolio of intellectual property (“IP”). We rely on a combination of patent, design, utility model, trademark, copyright, trade secret, and regulatory exclusivity period protections, as well as confidentiality agreements to protect our IP. Our IP team collaborates with our R&D and product teams to develop product-line-focused IP strategies and secure IP rights as appropriate. We generally file patent applications in the United States and other countries that have strong technology patent protections. We also license from third parties a variety of IP that complements our internal R&D efforts and our product offerings. While, in aggregate, our patents and other IP are vital to our operations, we do not consider any single IP asset or group of assets to be of material importance to any segment or to the business as a whole.
We rely on confidentiality agreements with colleagues, contractors, consultants, and third parties to help protect our trade secrets, proprietary technology, and other confidential information. We also monitor development and commercialization activities of third parties so our IP rights are not infringed upon. In addition, we make infrastructure investments to secure our IP assets and conduct audits to assess the effectiveness of our IP protection program.
We believe that invention leads to value for our customers and stakeholders, and that a culture of innovation across GE HealthCare is a core element of our success.

REGULATION
REGULATION OF MEDICAL DEVICES AND PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS.
The development, manufacturing, marketing, sale, promotion, and distribution of medical devices and pharmaceutical products are subject to stringent government regulation globally. We commit extensive resources to maintain compliance with these regulations.
The U.S., European Union (“EU”), and China are our most significant regions based on revenue and the regulatory landscape within these regions. The Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in the United States, the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) (for pharmaceuticals) and European National Competent Authorities and Notified Bodies (for devices) in Europe, the National Medical Products Administration (“NMPA”) in China and other government agencies, such as state and local authorities, in the United States, Europe, and China, administer strict requirements governing the design, development, testing, performance, safety, quality, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution, import/export, sale, servicing, marketing, and post-market surveillance of medical products, including medical devices and pharmaceutical products. In addition, we are subject to applicable national and sub-national laws and regulations of other countries.
Our ability to market and sell our products globally depends upon our compliance with the laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which we develop, manufacture, or distribute our products. This requires, among other things, compliance with laws and regulations related to developing, testing, conducting clinical trials if needed, and receiving appropriate marketing authorization from the appropriate regulatory authorities prior to commercialization of our products where necessary. We are also subject to extensive laws and regulations requiring ongoing compliance and monitoring of our products throughout the product lifecycle. For example, we have extensive processes and procedures for monitoring the post-market safety and performance of our products, reporting applicable events to regulators, and taking action to address potential safety or quality concerns where needed. In addition, regulators across the globe have the authority to conduct periodic inspections of our facilities, products, and Quality Management System processes and procedures to evaluate our compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Regulators also monitor our advertising and promotion of products for compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Complying with requirements imposed on our products and business is an ongoing process as we introduce additional products and/or product modifications and seek to comply with changing legal and regulatory requirements. The time required to obtain authorization to market and sell products varies by country. The ability to comply with global post-market requirements requires extensive and ongoing resources. An enforcement or adverse action by a regulator could limit our ability to obtain regulatory authorizations or impact our ability to develop, market, distribute, or otherwise make our products available, depending on the nature of the action.
DATA PRIVACY LAWS.
Due to our extensive global footprint and handling of personal data as both a data controller (on our own behalf) and data processor (on behalf of third parties, primarily customers), we are also subject to an extensive collection of global laws and regulations protecting the privacy, security, and integrity of the personal data, sensitive personal data, and patient health information that we create, receive, use, and maintain as a business. Our cloud, AI, edge computing, and software solutions must comply with stringent regulations, including certification requirements, in many of the countries in which our customers are located, particularly in relation to obtaining, using, storing, and transferring personal data, and such compliance is required before we can launch our offerings in the applicable countries. Additionally, our use of AI to support business operations carries inherent risks related to data privacy, IP, and security, such as intended, unintended, or inadvertent transmission of proprietary, confidential, or sensitive information.
Among the most relevant and material of these regulations to our business, based on the volume and sensitivity of the data at issue, are: the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended by the Health Information and Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (collectively “HIPAA”); the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (“GDPR”), similar United Kingdom (“U.K.”) legislation resulting from the European Union (Withdrawal) Data Act of 2018 (“U.K. GDPR”), and other EU country-level laws; the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoias (“Brazil LGPD”); the various laws and accompanying regulations in China governing data privacy and cybersecurity (e.g., the Cybersecurity Law of the People’s Republic of China, Personal Information Protection Law (“China PIPL”) and Data Security Law (“China DSL”)), the Digital Personal Data Protection Act of India, and significant privacy legislation recently adopted in the Middle East and Africa Personal Data Protection Law (“PDPL”) Royal Decree No. M/19 on September 16, 2021. In addition, there are also various U.S. state-level laws (e.g., the California Consumer Privacy Act), country regional laws, and proposed legislation that we monitor for applicability and impact to our business. These laws present a continuing challenge to businesses to structure their data collection, storage, use, and cross-border transmission in a compliant manner.
Many of these laws impose a significant compliance burden on organizations within their scope, and failure to comply can result in a variety of sanctions, including, with respect to GDPR, administrative fines for the most serious compliance failures up to 4% of a company’s global total annual revenue of the preceding fiscal year. While there have been some recent enforcement actions by EU country-level data protection authorities resulting in substantial fines pursuant to GDPR, there remains uncertainty as to how data protection authorities throughout the rest of the globe will choose to interpret and enforce violations of applicable privacy laws and regulations (e.g., Brazil LGPD, China PIPL). Furthermore, these laws and regulations are continuously evolving, and further clarification in the form of implementing rules, guidelines, and related guidance from the data protection authorities is necessary to understand the full picture of the compliance obligations imposed on businesses within their scope. Additionally, in recent years, the EU has introduced upcoming legislation that would regulate the use and transfer of non-personal, technical data only.
SALES & BUSINESS PRACTICES.
The marketing, promotion, and sale of medical devices, drugs, and services are regulated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and comparable U.S. state and non-U.S. governments and agencies responsible for reimbursement and regulation of the delivery of healthcare items and services, representing government’s interest in regulating the quality and cost of healthcare. Industry trade associations (such as Advanced Medical Technology Association (“AdvaMed”) and MedTech) increasingly provide guidance on applicable laws and regulations.
The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010, and similar anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies from making improper payments to or otherwise engaging in bribery of government officials. These laws apply to many of our customer interactions, as healthcare professionals in other countries are often considered government officials, and in some cases lay out requirements of how to operationalize compliance with the legal requirements. Countries outside the United States have enacted similar local laws requiring medical device companies to report transfers of value to healthcare providers licensed in those countries. Failure to comply with these laws may expose us to criminal and civil enforcement actions, monetary fines and penalties, and reputational harm.
ADDITIONAL U.S. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS.
U.S. federal healthcare laws apply when we or our customers submit claims for items or services that are reimbursed under Medicare, Medicaid, or other federally funded healthcare programs, including laws related to kickbacks, false claims, self-referrals, and healthcare fraud and abuse. Similar state false claims, anti-kickback, anti-self-referral, and insurance laws also apply to state-funded Medicaid and other healthcare programs and private third-party payers. Any failure to comply with these laws and regulations could subject us or our officers and colleagues to criminal and civil financial penalties and expose us to civil liability and risk of further enforcement action under the U.S. Anti-Kickback Statute (“AKS”), the False Claims Act (“FCA”), or other healthcare fraud and abuse laws. In addition, as a manufacturer of U.S. FDA-cleared and -approved devices and drugs reimbursable by federal healthcare programs, we are subject to the U.S. federal Physician Payments Sunshine Act (the “Sunshine Act”), which requires us to annually track and report to the federal government certain payments and other transfers of value we make to U.S.-licensed physicians and other healthcare professionals or U.S. teaching hospitals. Similar laws exist in some U.S. states as well.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our company is subject to a number of risks. These risks and other risks could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, or prospects and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. You should carefully consider the following risks and other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in evaluating us and our common stock. Some of the factors, events and contingencies discussed below may have occurred in the past, but the disclosures below are not representations as to whether or not the factors, events, or contingencies have occurred in the past and instead reflect our beliefs and opinions as to the factors, events, or contingencies that could materially and adversely affect us in the future.
SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS.
This summary of risks is intended to provide an overview of the principal risks we face and should not be considered a substitute for a review of the more detailed risk factors discussed immediately following this summary.
Industry and Economic Risks
-
We operate in highly competitive markets.
-
Our business is subject to the effects of global geopolitical and economic instability and public health crises.
-
Efforts by public and private payers to control the growth of healthcare costs may affect the price of and demand for our products and services.
Business and Operational Risks
-
Our business strategy could be adversely affected if we are unable to successfully complete strategic transactions or manage our collaboration, joint venture, or similar arrangements.
-
Our business strategy includes substantial investment in R&D, with a focus on AI, cloud, edge computing, and software offerings. We cannot guarantee that these investments will generate new offerings, attract customers, or generate sufficient revenue.
-
Our inability to manage our supply chain or obtain supplies of components or raw materials, as well as any interruption in the operations of our facilities, our suppliers’, customers’, or third-party providers’ facilities, has restricted, and could continue to restrict, the manufacturing of products, cause delays in delivery, impair our ability to deliver products or provide services, or significantly increase our costs.
-
We manufacture and sell products that rely upon software and computer systems to operate properly and process and store confidential information. Our business could be adversely affected by increased cybersecurity requirements, vulnerabilities, threats, and more sophisticated and targeted cybercrimes, and our inability to obtain, maintain, protect, or effectively enforce our IP rights.
-
If we are unable to attract or retain key talent and qualified employees or maintain relations with our employees or employee representatives, it could adversely affect our business.
-
Increasing attention to sustainability matters, including environmental, health, and safety (“EH&S”) matters, may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks.
Regulatory and Legal Risks
-
Our business operations are subject to extensive laws and regulations, including with regard to the development, authorization and commercialization of our products, as well as anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, anti-kickback and false claims laws, antitrust and competition laws, privacy and information security laws, and applicable tax laws. Any changes to or violations of these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.
-
We are subject to laws and regulations in many jurisdictions governing government contracts, public procurement, and government reimbursements, as to which the failure to comply could adversely affect our business.
-
We are exposed to risks associated with potential litigation, arbitration, and governmental proceedings, including product liability claims that have been and may be brought against us.
General Risks
-
Our existing indebtedness, and any additional indebtedness that we may incur, could have important consequences for our business.
-
We have significant postretirement benefit liabilities and their actual costs and related cash flows are uncertain and could exceed current estimates.
INDUSTRY AND ECONOMIC RISKS.
We operate in highly competitive markets, competition may increase in the future, and our industry may be disrupted, requiring us to lower prices or resulting in a loss of market share.
Healthcare markets are characterized by rapidly evolving technology, frequent introduction of new products, intense competition, and pricing pressures. We face substantial competition from international and domestic companies of all sizes, and these competitors often differ across our businesses. Competition is primarily focused on cost-effectiveness, pricing, service, product performance, and technological innovation. Our ability to compete successfully may be adversely affected by factors such as:
-
the development of new technology, the application of known or unknown technology, advances in medicine, or new developments in the treatment or diagnosis of disease that transform our industry or render a product or product line obsolete;
-
competitors responding more quickly or effectively to new technology, or changes in customer requirements and industry trends;
-
the introduction of new or more affordable products or product enhancements by competitors, including products that could substitute for our products or reprocessed products or generic versions when our proprietary products lose their patent protection;
-
a failure to satisfy local market conditions and regulations, such as mandatory IP transfers, protectionist measures, and other government policies supporting increased local competition;
-
the application of new or innovative business models to our industry;
-
the emergence of new market entrants, including those with innovative technology or substantial financial resources, such as startups or established technology companies;
-
a failure to maintain or expand relationships with existing customers or attract new customers;
-
cost of production or delivery, whether due to geographic location, currency fluctuations, taxes, tariffs, duties, or otherwise, which may enable our competitors to offer greater discounts or lower prices;
-
the performance, capability, and integrity of third parties, including due to their financial instability or their compliance or regulatory failures;
-
the perception of our brand and image in the market;
-
the strengthening of independent service organizations (“ISOs”) (third-party entities that specialize in the repair and maintenance of medical devices produced by original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), including us) and companies specializing in one or more of our operating segments or offerings;
-
a failure to successfully enter new or emerging geographic or adjacent product markets, including as a result of pricing pressures from local and international competitors in those markets;
-
a failure to acquire or effectively integrate businesses and technologies that complement or expand our existing businesses;
-
changing regulatory standards, legal requirements, or enforcement rigor; or
-
consolidation among customers, suppliers, channel partners, or competitors.
The implementation of localization requirements and the other government policies in certain geographies such as China and Russia creates a risk that, if we do not localize our products or operations to meet such requirements, we could lose market share and experience adverse effects on our business results, cash flows, and financial condition.

None.
Item 1C. CYBERSECURITY
CYBERSECURITY RISK MANAGEMENT.
GE HealthCare employs practices, processes, and procedures to proactively and comprehensively manage risks, including risks related to cybersecurity, through its enterprise risk management (“ERM”) program. We aim to identify material cybersecurity risks via multiple strategies, including user and external reporting, audit and assessment activities, and technology programs. We utilize risk identification and risk mitigation strategies.
-
Risk identification begins with understanding the devices and equipment in use across the company, including laptops, servers, and other data devices, industrial equipment and machinery, and associated risks related to the use of those devices and equipment.
-
Risk mitigation entails protecting our data and operational systems via a system of controls. We monitor and collect data about the devices and users that touch our network resources, reviewing this data for anomalies. When we identify anomalies, we investigate to determine if the anomaly represents a threat. We have a process to contain and remediate identified threats. As discussed further below, we have incident response processes in place to utilize in case of threats or incidents. We conduct regular crisis simulations.
Our processes also address cybersecurity threat risks associated with our use of third-party service providers, including those in our supply chain or who have access to our customer and employee data or our systems. Third-party risks are included within our ERM assessment program as well as our cybersecurity-specific risk identification program, as discussed above. In addition, cybersecurity considerations affect the selection and oversight of our third-party service providers. We perform diligence on third parties that have access to our systems, data, or facilities that house such systems or data, and monitor cybersecurity threat risks identified through such diligence.
We have a dedicated team of cyber professionals who report to our Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”). This team publishes information technology and security policies, measures compliance, trains the workforce on cyber risks and protections, and operates a program to identify and mitigate risks and threats. Our risk mitigation activities include workforce awareness, vulnerability management, network segmentation, cyber protection and containment, detection, response and recovery. This team operates to decrease the risk of cyber incidents having a material impact. We measure our programs against the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cyber Security Framework and regularly test our controls and incident response plans.
We maintain incident response plans that guide our activities in preparing for, detecting, responding to, and recovering from cybersecurity incidents. These plans cover the range of activities we undertake in connection with responding to cybersecurity incidents, including assessment, investigation, containment, remediation, and mitigation, as well as compliance with legal obligations including any necessary regulatory reporting.
As part of these processes, we regularly engage with assessors, consultants, auditors, and other third parties to review our cybersecurity program to help identify areas for continued focus, improvement, and compliance.
To date, the Company is not aware of any cybersecurity incident that has had or is reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company, including its business strategy, or financial results. However, despite our security measures, there can be no assurance that the Company, or the third parties with which we interact, will not experience a cybersecurity incident in the future that may materially affect us. We describe whether and how cybersecurity-related risks could materially affect our business in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” under the heading “Increased cybersecurity requirements, vulnerabilities, threats, and more sophisticated and targeted cybercrimes pose a risk to our systems, networks, products, solutions, services, and data, as well as our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.”
CYBERSECURITY GOVERNANCE.
Cybersecurity is an important part of our risk management processes and an area of focus for our Board and management. The Audit Committee of our Board is responsible for the oversight of cybersecurity-related risks. The Audit Committee regularly receives reports from management on our cybersecurity threat risk management and strategy processes, including on topics such as our data security posture, results from third-party assessments, progress towards pre-determined risk-mitigation-related goals, incident response plans, and cybersecurity threat risks or incidents and developments, as well as the steps management has taken to respond to these risks. The Audit Committee received reports from our Chief Information Officer (“CIO”) and/or CISO four times in 2025.
Our cybersecurity risk management and strategy processes, which are discussed in greater detail above, are led by our CISO. The CISO works closely with the CIO, Chief Privacy Officer (“CPO”), and other members of the legal team who report to the General Counsel, to review the cybersecurity program while monitoring global data protection regulations and cyber security laws. The CISO, CIO, and CPO, collectively, have over 35 years of work experience in various roles involving managing information security, developing cybersecurity strategy, and implementing effective information and cybersecurity programs. Our CISO is currently a board member for the National Technology Security Coalition, a non-profit, non-partisan trade association serving as the voice of CISOs to help improve national cybersecurity and has served on the board of advisors of many security technology companies.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
GE HealthCare is a global organization headquartered in Chicago, Illinois with other major centers in or near the following cities: Milwaukee, Paris, Bangalore, and Shanghai. We own or lease over 300 facilities around the world excluding third-party logistics sites. We have 44 manufacturing facilities, of which 32 are owned. We have 14 manufacturing facilities located in the United States and 30 located outside of the United States, including in China, Japan, Mexico, Norway, India, Israel, Germany, Brazil, Austria, Denmark, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, and South Korea. Many of these facilities serve more than one business line and may be used for multiple purposes, such as administration, sales, research, manufacturing, warehousing, service, and distribution. We consider our facilities suitable and adequate for the purposes for which they are used and do not anticipate difficulty in renewing existing leases as they expire or in finding alternative facilities.
Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

KEY TRENDS AFFECTING RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Global Trade and Macroeconomic Environment
Throughout 2025, the U.S. imposed a variety of new tariffs on most imports from all countries in the world. This in turn prompted several countries to announce tariffs on U.S. imports. While the situation continues to be fluid, tariffs materially impacted our Operating income by approximately $245 million and cash flows by approximately $285 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily the bilateral U.S. and Chinese tariffs and U.S. tariffs on all other global import suppliers. Should the tariffs continue at formally communicated levels, we expect to continue to see a material impact to our financial results. Additional tariffs or other trade restrictions by the U.S. or other countries where we do significant business, or other restrictions on specific industries, such as pharmaceuticals, could further materially impact our results in the future. While we are taking actions to mitigate the impact of tariffs, we do not expect that our mitigation actions will fully offset the additional costs or other negative impacts resulting from the tariffs.
We continue to monitor the global markets in which we operate for changes in customer behavior, changes in government spending and reimbursement, and indirect impacts from the tariffs. Should these factors dampen economic growth, slow global trade, or impact inflation, we could see adverse impacts to our business as our customers adapt to the change in economic environment. We also continue to monitor potential impacts on purchasing decisions by both public and private customers in China and other markets as a result of the current trade environment, as well as other actions related to tariffs and trade frictions, investigations, or activities that could similarly increase our costs or otherwise impact our business. In addition, if negative sentiment towards U.S. companies influences the purchasing decisions of global customers, our business could be impacted materially.
China Market
We believe the focus of government policy in China is on expanding access to healthcare. In addition, our investments to address clinical needs, localization, and commercial infrastructure should benefit our business in China in the long term. However, we continue to monitor developments in the China market, including increased competition from local companies and the prevalence of Volume Based Procurement policies, both of which have impacted our orders and revenues and may continue to do so.
Russia and Ukraine Conflict
We had $214 million and $162 million of assets in, or directly related to, Russia and Ukraine as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, none of which are subject to sanctions that impact the carrying value of the assets. We generated revenues of $353 million and $363 million from customers in these two countries for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The potential inability to repatriate earnings from these two countries will not have a material impact on our ability to operate.
We continue to monitor the effects of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, including the consideration of financial impact, cybersecurity risks, the applicability and effect of sanctions, and the employee base in Ukraine and Russia. Under the current U.S. Department of Commerce regulations, we are permitted to export, re-export, or transfer medical equipment and spare parts that meet stated criteria under a License Exception, which has eliminated the need for us to obtain individual U.S. licenses in most cases; however, licenses still may be needed for some transactions. The European Union and other countries have also expanded licensing requirements for certain spare parts, services, software, and other items. We will continue to apply for licenses to supply to these customers and to support our business in Russia, as required. The implementation of these measures affected our ability to supply customers in Russia during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and is expected to continue to do so as we confirm applicability of the U.S. License Exception to our transactions and continue to obtain licenses. There is no guarantee we will obtain all of the licenses for which we apply, that any approvals we obtain will be on a timely basis, or that our business in Russia will not be further disrupted due to evolving legal or operational considerations. We will continue to assess whether developments related to the conflict have had, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on the Company.
Geopolitical Conflicts
Geopolitical instability, across multiple regions, could adversely impact our operations, supply chains, and logistics. These events may result in increased costs, delays in product deliveries, and challenges in maintaining service levels in affected areas. While these events have not materially impacted our operations, we continue to monitor these developments closely.
Recent U.S. Legislation
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into U.S. law, which includes significant changes to the federal income tax system. The changes did

Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices, and equity prices, which may impact future income, cash flows, and fair value of our business. In certain situations, we may seek to reduce cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the foreign currency risk associated with our net investment in foreign operations, or the fair value interest rate risk of our financial instruments bearing fixed interest by entering into financial arrangements intended to provide a hedge against a portion of such risks. We continue to have exposure to such risks to the extent they are not hedged. We enter into derivative contracts to the extent they meet the objectives described above, and not for speculative purposes. See Note 13, “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” for further information about our risk exposures, our use of derivatives, and the effects of this activity on our financial statements.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK.
As a result of our global operations, we generate and incur a significant portion of our revenues and expenses, including those arising from intercompany transactions, in currencies other than the functional currency of our foreign operations creating exposure to foreign currency translation risk. Such principal currencies include the Euro, the Chinese Renminbi, the Japanese Yen, the Norwegian Krone, and the British Pound Sterling, among others. Operating entities with functional currencies other than the USD also create exposure to foreign currency risk realized upon their sale or a complete or substantially complete liquidation.
We use a number of techniques to manage the effects of foreign currency exchange risk, including hedging of significant currency exposures. We use cash flow hedging primarily to reduce or eliminate the effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes on purchase and sale contracts and economic hedges when we have exposures to foreign currency exchange risk for which we are unable to meet the requirements for hedge accounting. We use net investment hedging to hedge the foreign currency risk of our net investment in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates against the USD. As a result of the above mitigating activities, we have been able to significantly reduce the financial impact of volatility from currency fluctuations.
The potential increase in fair value of our foreign currency derivative contracts from a 10% decrease in USD spot rates against other applicable currencies would have been $111 million as of December 31, 2025. This excludes foreign currency derivative contracts designated as net investment hedges as changes in the fair value of those contracts are not expected to impact earnings. The sensitivity analysis assumes a uniform weakening of USD spot rates against the other applicable currencies, compared to the actual exchange rates applied as of December 31, 2025, with all other factors remaining constant. This sensitivity analysis disregards the offsetting change in value of the underlying hedged currency exposures in earnings.
The effect arising from foreign currency transactions, including the remeasurement of derivatives mentioned above, can result in significant fluctuations at points in time, but generally will be offset as the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings. The global nature of our customer base and manufacturing footprint allows for the natural offset of certain income and costs denominated in foreign currencies. See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for net gains (losses) from foreign currency transactions for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.
INTEREST RATE RISK.
We are exposed to interest rate risk due to changes in benchmark interest rates related to the fair value of our borrowings bearing fixed interest rates and variability of cash flows related to our investments and borrowings bearing variable interest rates.
As of December 31, 2025, we have $9,500 million outstanding principal of fixed-rate senior unsecured notes and $500 million outstanding principal on the Term Loan Facility which carries a variable interest rate. As of December 31, 2025, we have $4,512 million of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, of which $3,445 million is invested in short-term investments that generate income based on variable interest rates.
A change in interest rates would impact the fair value of our fixed-rate debt and would impact our earnings and cash flows associated with our floating-rate debt. A hypothetical change of interest rates by 100 basis points would increase or decrease our annual interest expense by approximately $32 million, partially offset by the change in interest income from our cash investments.
We primarily manage interest rate risk by using a mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt that we deem appropriate. As of December 31, 2025, we executed an aggregate notional amount of interest rate swap contracts to synthetically convert $2,700 million of our senior unsecured notes from fixed rates to variable rates as part of our interest rate risk management strategy.
COMMODITY RISK.
We rely upon supplies of certain raw materials including helium, iodine, and rare earth minerals. Worldwide demand, availability, and pricing of these raw materials have been volatile, and we expect that availability and pricing will continue to fluctuate in the future. If supply of these materials is restricted or if prices increase, this could constrain our manufacturing of affected products, reduce our profit margins, or otherwise adversely affect our business, our customers, and patients who may rely on our products.
Similarly, commodities and energy prices are subject to significant volatility. If the costs of certain commodities or of energy, shipping, or transportation increase and we are unable to pass along these costs to our customers, our financial results would be adversely affected. Furthermore, increasing our prices to our customers could result in long-term sales declines or loss of market share if our customers find alternative suppliers, which could also have a material adverse effect on our financial results.
Disruptions in deliveries, capacity constraints, production disruptions up- or down-stream, price increases, or decreased availability of raw materials or commodities (including as a result of war, natural disasters, climate change-related physical and transitional risks, actual or threatened public health emergencies, or other business continuity events) adversely affect our operations and, depending on the length and severity of the disruption, can limit our ability to meet our commitments to customers or significantly impact our operating profit or cash flows.
EQUITY RISK.
As of December 31, 2025, we have $248 million of deferred compensation liabilities subject to the risk of changes in equity prices. A change in the U.S equity markets would result in a corresponding change in the value of these deferred compensation liabilities, which would impact our earnings and cash flows. We may from time to time engage in hedging transactions to reduce the impact to earnings from equity price fluctuations.
Item 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of GE HealthCare Technologies Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 4, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Revenue Recognition – Allocation of the Transaction Price to Each Performance Obligation – Refer to Notes 2 and 3 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
Contracts for the sale of products and services often include multiple distinct performance obligations, usually involving an upfront deliverable of equipment and future performance obligations such as installation, training, or the future delivery of products or services. If a contract contains more than one performance obligation, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on relative stand-alone selling price. Stand-alone selling price is obtained from sources such as the separate selling price for that or a similar item, if reasonably available. If such evidence is not reasonably available, the Company uses its best estimate of selling price, which is established consistent with the pricing strategy of the Company and considers product configuration, geography, customer type, and other market-specific factors.
The Company’s allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation involves judgments and estimates, including its best estimate of stand-alone selling price for performance obligations. Auditing the Company’s allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in a contract required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of auditor effort.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations included the following, among others:
-
We tested the effectiveness of relevant controls related to the Company’s determination of stand-alone selling price and the allocation of transaction price to performance obligations.
-
We selected certain products and services and tested the Company’s estimate of stand-alone selling price by evaluating historical prices charged for those performance obligations by the Company or other third parties, or by evaluating the reasonableness of the Company’s estimate if stand-alone selling prices were not available.
-
We selected a sample of revenue transactions and tested the Company’s allocation of transaction price to performance obligations.
-
We evaluated whether management’s revenue recognition accounting policies with respect to allocation of the transaction price to performance obligations are in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and evaluated the appropriateness of management’s application of those accounting policies in the determination of revenue recognition conclusions.

Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2025, and that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING.
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management has evaluated the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting, based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and concluded that they were effective as of December 31, 2025. All internal control systems have inherent limitations; as such, they may not prevent or detect all misstatements or fraud. Therefore, even those internal control systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statements preparation and reporting. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the current control structure may become inadequate for changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies may deteriorate.
The effectiveness of such controls has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report included in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
