- Organic revenue growth* of 2% to 3% year-over-year; unchanged from prior guidance
- Adjusted EBIT margin* of 14.2% to 14.4%, reflecting a decline of 210 bps to a decline of 190 bps versus 2024 Adjusted EBIT margin* of 16.3%; this compares to previous Adjusted EBIT margin* guidance of 16.7% to 16.8%
- Adjusted effective tax rate (ETR)* in the range of 21% to 22%; this compares to previous Adjusted ETR* guidance of 22% to 23%
- Adjusted EPS* in the range of $3.90 to $4.10, reflecting a decline of 13% to a decline of 9% versus 2024 Adjusted EPS* of $4.49, which includes approximately $0.85 of tariff impact; this compares to previous Adjusted EPS* guidance in the range of $4.61 to $4.75
- Free cash flow* of at least $1.2 billion; this compares to previous Free cash flow* guidance of at least $1.75 billion
|
(1) Tariff assumption for updated guidance: Current bilateral U.S./China tariffs remain in place; current Mexico and Canada tariffs remain in place and USMCA exemptions for eligible imports continue; U.S. reciprocal tariffs on Rest of World announced on April 2, 2025 return to pre-pause levels July 9, 2025; excludes potential Section 232 tariff impact. |
The Company provides its outlook on a non-GAAP basis. Refer to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Outlook section below for more details.
Share repurchase authorization
GE HealthCare today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $1 billion of the Company’s common stock.
“We are pleased to announce that our Board has authorized a $1 billion share repurchase program. Since our spin-off, we’ve made significant progress strengthening our balance sheet through debt repayment, while also increasing organic and inorganic investment to grow our business,” said Jay Saccaro, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Our capital allocation priority remains focused on investing in our business to accelerate growth, but we believe that a share repurchase program allows us to opportunistically return capital to shareholders and is a demonstration of our view of GE HealthCare’s strong long-term business prospects.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release are supplemental measures of GE HealthCare’s performance and its liquidity that the Company believes will help investors understand its financial condition, cash flows, and operating results, and assess its future prospects. When read in conjunction with the Company’s U.S. GAAP results, these non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in GE HealthCare’s underlying businesses and can be used by management as one basis for making financial, operational, and planning decisions. Descriptions of the reported non-GAAP measures are included below.
The Company reports Organic revenue and Organic revenue growth rate to provide management and investors with additional understanding and visibility into the underlying revenue trends of the Company’s established, ongoing operations, as well as provide insights into overall demand for its products and services. To calculate these measures, the Company excludes the effect of acquisitions, dispositions, and foreign currency rate fluctuations.
The Company reports EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted earnings per share to provide management and investors with additional understanding of its business by highlighting the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability factors, on a normalized basis. To calculate these measures the Company excludes, and reflects in the detailed reconciliations below, the following adjustments as applicable: Interest and other financial charges – net, Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, Non-operating benefit (income) costs, Benefit (provision) for income taxes and certain tax related adjustments, and certain non-recurring and/or non-cash items. GE HealthCare may from time to time consider excluding other non-recurring items to enhance comparability between periods. Adjusted EBIT margin is calculated by taking Adjusted EBIT divided by Total revenues for the same period.
The Company reports Adjusted tax expense and Adjusted effective tax rate (“Adjusted ETR”) to provide management and investors with a better understanding of the normalized tax rate applicable to the business and provide more consistent comparability across periods. Adjusted tax expense excludes the income tax related to the pre-tax income adjustments included as part of Adjusted net income and certain income tax adjustments, such as adjustments to deferred tax assets or liabilities. The Company may from time to time consider excluding other non-recurring tax items to enhance comparability between periods. Adjusted ETR is Adjusted tax expense divided by income before income taxes less the pre-tax income adjustments referenced above.
The Company reports Free cash flow and Free cash flow conversion to provide management and investors with an important measure of the ability to generate cash on a normalized basis and provide insight into the Company’s flexibility to allocate capital. Free cash flow is Cash from (used for) operating activities – continuing operations including cash flows related to the additions and dispositions of property, plant, and equipment (“PP&E”) and additions of internal-use software. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the capital required for debt repayments. Free cash flow conversion is calculated by taking Free cash flow divided by Adjusted net income.
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. In order to compensate for the discussed limitations, management does not consider these measures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The detailed reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure are provided below, and no single financial measure should be relied on to evaluate our business.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Outlook
GE HealthCare calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, including Organic revenue growth, Adjusted EBIT margin, Adjusted ETR, Adjusted EPS, and Free cash flow based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. GE HealthCare does not provide reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the respective GAAP metrics as it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort certain items such as the impact of changes in currency exchange rates, impacts associated with business acquisitions or dispositions, timing and magnitude of restructuring activities, and revaluation of strategic investments, amongst other items. The timing and amounts of these items are uncertain and could have a substantial impact on GE HealthCare’s results in accordance with GAAP.
Key Performance Indicators
Management uses the following metrics to provide a leading indicator of current business demand from customers for products and services.
- Organic orders growth: Rate of change period-over-period of contractual commitments with customers to provide specified goods or services for an agreed upon price, and excluding the effects of: (1) recent acquisitions and dispositions with less than a full year of comparable orders; and (2) foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in order to present orders on a constant currency basis.
- Book-to-bill: Total orders divided by Total revenues within a given financial period (e.g., quarter or FY).
Share repurchases
Share repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or in such other manner as determined by GE HealthCare. The timing and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company at its discretion based on ongoing evaluation of general market and business conditions, the market price of GE HealthCare’s common stock, the Company’s capital needs, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. The repurchase program does not have an expiration date. The repurchase program does not obligate GE HealthCare to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and it may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion.
Conference Call and Webcast Information
GE HealthCare will discuss its results during its live earnings call today, April 30, 2025 at 8:30 am ET/7:30 am CT. The webcast and accompanying slide presentation containing financial information can be accessed by visiting the investor section of the website at https://investor.gehealthcare.com/news-events/events. An archived version of the webcast will be available on the website after the call.
