Why it matters now: investors focus on GE’s guidance and any signals for commercial engine output and high-margin services, beyond just the latest quarter. The aftermarket segment — covering repairs, spares, and shop visits — often softens the blow when new engine deliveries fall short.
GE ended Friday’s session at $325.12, gaining 1.62%, after fluctuating between $318.70 and $325.55. Roughly 4.0 million shares changed hands. (Yahoo Finance)
Wall Street heads into the report anticipating a further rise. Zacks projects quarterly earnings of $1.41 per share on $11.19 billion in revenue but flagged that its consensus EPS estimate has slipped 1.16% in the last 30 days. (Nasdaq)
Stock futures in the U.S. and Europe dipped Monday ahead of Tuesday’s reopening, rattled by President Donald Trump’s threat to impose an additional 10% tariff on imports from eight European nations linked to Greenland, according to the AP. “This is not a short-term liquidation story. It is a slow rebalancing story,” Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management noted in commentary. (AP News)
Last week, GE Aerospace appointed Mohamed Ali to head its expanded Commercial Engines and Services unit, which now encompasses the technology and operations team. CEO Larry Culp said this move will “enable greater agility and cross-functional problem-solving.” (Reuters)
Commercial engines are key players here. CFM International, a joint venture equally owned by GE Aerospace and France’s Safran Aircraft Engines, highlights its LEAP engine family as the power behind the Airbus A320neo, Boeing 737 MAX, and COMAC C919 models. (Cfmaeroengines)
Thursday’s data will be scrutinized for clues on parts availability, shop capacity, and service pricing—key areas where airlines cover repair and overhaul costs. Expectations for 2026, particularly cash flow forecasts, are set to steer the initial reaction more than whether the numbers beat or miss estimates.
The downside risks remain familiar: surprise inspection campaigns or reliability glitches could disrupt deliveries and push up field costs. In December, the FAA widened dust-related inspection rules for some LEAP-1A engines running in South Asia. CFM described it as a “known issue” and told FlightGlobal it didn’t foresee any “operational disruption.” (Flight Global)
