Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS**.** The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction
with our consolidated and combined financial statements, which are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP), and corresponding notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion and
analysis provides information that management believes to be relevant to understanding the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The below discussion should be read alongside Item 7.
"Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our audited consolidated and combined
financial statements and corresponding notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. 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. Unless otherwise noted, statements related to changes in operating results relate to the corresponding
period in the prior year.
In the accompanying analysis of financial information, we sometimes use information derived from consolidated and combined financial
data but not presented in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of these data are considered “non-GAAP
financial measures” under SEC rules. For the reasons we use these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to their most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures, see "—Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Financial Presentation Under GE Ownership. We completed our separation from General Electric Company (GE), which now operates
as GE Aerospace, on April 2, 2024 (the Spin-Off). For further information, see Note 1 in the Notes to our audited consolidated and
combined financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Prolec GE. On October 21, 2025, we announced that GE Vernova will acquire the remaining fifty percent stake of Prolec GE, our
unconsolidated joint venture with Xignux. Prolec GE is a leading grid equipment supplier, producing transformers across most ratings and
voltages with approximately 10,000 global employees across seven manufacturing sites globally, including five in the U.S. Under the
purchase agreement, GE Vernova will pay approximately $5.3 billion at closing, expected to be funded equally between cash and debt. The
acquisition is expected to close by mid-2026, subject to the completion of customary regulatory approvals.
Tariffs. Throughout 2025, the United States and other countries imposed global tariffs. These tariffs and any future tariffs will result in
additional costs to us. The current total estimated cost impact from the global tariffs as outlined is trending towards the lower end of
approximately $300 million to $400 million for the full year 2025, after taking into consideration contractual protections and mitigating
actions. The actual impact of the tariffs may be significantly different than our current estimate. Our estimate is subject to several factors
including the amount, duration, scope and nature of the tariffs, countermeasures that countries take, mitigating or other actions we take,
and contractual implications.
Power Conversion & Storage. Effective January 1, 2025, our Power Conversion and Solar & Storage Solutions business units within our
Electrification segment were combined to form a new business unit, Power Conversion & Storage. Historical financial information presented
within this report conforms to the new business unit structure within the Electrification segment.
TRENDS AND FACTORS IMPACTING OUR PERFORMANCE. We believe our performance and future success depends on a number of
factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below.
Our worldwide operations are affected by regional and global factors impacting energy demand, including industry trends like
decarbonization, an increasing demand for renewable energy alternatives, governmental regulations and policies, and changes in broader
economic and geopolitical conditions. These trends, along with the growing focus on the digitization and sustainability of the electricity
infrastructure, can impact performance across each of our business segments. We believe that our industry-defining technologies and
commitment to innovation position us well to capitalize on, as well as mitigate adverse impacts from, these long-term trends:
- Demand growth for electricity generation – Significant investment, infrastructure, and supply diversity will be essential to help meet
forecasted energy demand growth arising from population and global economic growth.
- Decarbonization – The urgency to combat climate change is fueling technology advancements that improve the economic viability and
efficiency of renewable energy alternatives and facilitate the transition to a more sustainable power sector.
- Evolving generation mix – The power industry is shifting from coal generation to more electricity generated from zero- or low-carbon
energy sources, and an evolving balance of generation sources will be necessary to maintain a reliable, resilient, and affordable
system.
*•*Energy resilience & security – Threats and challenges from extreme weather events, cyber-attacks, and geopolitical tensions have
increased focus on the strength and resilience of power generation and transmission and reinforced the need for a diversified mix of
energy sources.
- Grid modernization and investment – Increased demand and the integration of advanced generation and storage solutions drive the
need to update aging infrastructure with new grid integration and automation solutions.
- Regulatory and policy changes – Government policies and regulations, such as carbon pricing, renewable energy mandates, and
subsidies for renewable energy technologies, can significantly impact the power generation landscape. Staying ahead of regulatory
changes and adapting to new compliance requirements is crucial for maintaining a competitive advantage.
- Financial and investment dynamics – Access to capital and investment trends in the energy sector can influence the development and
deployment of new power generation projects. Understanding market dynamics and securing funding are key to progressing strategic
initiatives.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. We are exposed to market risk
primarily from fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and commodity prices. These exposures are managed and
mitigated with the use of financial instruments, including derivatives contracts. We apply policies to manage these risks, including
prohibitions on speculative activities. The effects of foreign currency fluctuations on earnings were less than $(0.1) billion and less than
$0.1 billion for the three months ended and less than $0.1 billion and $(0.1) billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and
2024, respectively. For more information about foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, and commodity risk see Item 7A. "Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 4. 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 September 30, 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.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**.** During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company continued to exit
from various transition service agreements with GE Aerospace primarily related to information technology systems that impact financial
reporting. Consequently, responsibility for execution of related internal controls transferred to the Company, including certain general
information technology controls in connection with information technology environment changes. Other than those discussed in the
preceding sentences, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended September
30, 2025, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

operations, cash flows, financial condition, and/or future prospects, including those identified in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2024.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS**.** On December 10, 2024, we
announced that the Board of Directors had authorized up to $6 billion of common stock repurchases, which commenced in December 2024
and does not have an expiration date. We repurchased 1.1 million shares for $658 million during the three months ended September 30,
2025 under this authorization.
The following table summarizes the share repurchase activity for the three months ended September 30, 2025:
| Total number of shares purchased (in thousands) | Average price paid per share | Total number of shares purchased as part of our share repurchase authorization (in thousands) | Approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under our share repurchase authorization (in millions) | |

Between July 1, 2025 and July 22, 2025, participants in the Company’s Retirement Savings Plan (RSP) purchased approximately 1.1
million stock fund units in the GE Vernova Common Stock Fund (the equivalent of approximately 80,000 shares of Company common
stock) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $43 million. The offers and sales of these securities during this time period were
not deemed registered under the Securities Act, because the prospectus contained in the original Registration Statement on Form S-1
relating to such securities had not been timely updated. On July 23, 2025, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to the Form S-1
on Form S-8, which updated the prospectus in the as-amended registration statement, thereby ensuring that all offers and sales from such
date are registered under the Securities Act.
