Description: GE GE Aerospace January 28, 2026
GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE) designs, manufactures, and services commercial and defense aircraft engines, as well as related components such as electric power units, mechanical systems, and avionics. It operates through two reportable segments: Commercial Engines & Services, which covers jet-engine design, production, MRO and spare-parts sales for airlines, business-jet operators, and aeroderivative markets; and Defense & Propulsion Technologies, which supplies military customers and commercial airframers with jet engines, turboprops, transmissions, additive-manufactured parts, and sensor systems across fixed-wing and rotorcraft platforms. The business is globally diversified, with operations in North America, Europe, China, the broader Asia-Pacific region, the Middle East, and Africa.
Key recent metrics (Q3 2025):
• Revenue of $20.3 billion, up 6 % YoY, driven by a 12 % rise in commercial engine orders and a 4 % increase in defense contracts.
• Backlog of commercial engine orders reached $45 billion, reflecting a 15 % year-over-year growth and a 2-year average order-to-delivery ratio of 2.3, indicating strong demand resilience amid volatile fuel prices.
• Operating margin improved to 11.5 % (vs. 9.8 % in Q3 2024) after cost-reduction initiatives and higher mix of high-margin MRO services.
• Defense segment benefited from a 9 % increase in U.S. defense spending FY 2025, particularly in next-generation propulsion and unmanned-air-system (UAS) engines.
These figures suggest that GE Aerospace is capitalizing on the post-pandemic recovery in global air travel, while defense budget trends provide a stabilizing revenue floor.
