GE Aerospace uvedla, že její testovací letoun přeletěl Atlantik na částečný hybridně-elektrický pohon. Firma zároveň zvýšila celoroční výhled a uvedla backlog ve výši 210 miliard USD.
GE Aerospace CEO Larry Culp used a Farnborough Air Show appearance on CNBC this morning to spotlight its advanced technology and strong second-quarter results. GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE | GE Price Prediction) said its testbed aircraft flew across the Atlantic under partial hybrid electric power to reach the show, then delivered a Q2 report that put commercial services growth, engine deliveries, and aftermarket spare parts all on the same steep trajectory.
Culp framed the flight as a technology proof point. “We had the first ever high altitude hybrid electric flight crossing the Atlantic to bring that plane here. This is a first of its kind. And as you might imagine, we’re terribly excited,” he said, describing the SAAB A340 testbed program run in collaboration with Boeing (NYSE:BA), Beta Technologies, and NASA. He was careful to set realistic expectations: “Hybrid electric is a key part of that. So nothing imminent in terms of a product launch. But this is a strong proof point that hybrid electric will be part of that next generation commercial offering.“
The Numbers Behind the Headline GE Aerospace saw revenues increase 21% in the quarter, and earnings per share were up 22% year over year. Total engine deliveries were up 31% in the first half of the year, and aftermarket spare parts revenues were up over 30% in the same window. Commercial Engines & Services were up 27% to $9.73 billion, and Defense & Propulsion Technologies were up 16% to $3.44 billion. Free cash flow reached $3.03 billion.
Management lifted full-year 2026 guidance to adjusted EPS of $7.65 to $7.85, operating profit of $10.55 to $10.75 billion, and free cash flow of $8.90 to $9.20 billion.
A $210 Billion Order Book The demand signal driving those numbers is a backlog Culp put at $210 billion between new engines and aftermarket services. “Customers that we talk to are very keen to see us continue to ramp in partnership with our airframe partners,” he said. That ramp is tied directly to Boeing, whose 737 program is running at 42 per month and 787 program at 8 per month, with a Boeing commercial backlog of $695 billion. LEAP engines power the 737 MAX, and GEnx powers the 787.

Q2 also brought LEAP engine deliveries up 24%, with recent commercial wins including a Copa Airlines agreement for up to 120 LEAP-1B engines and a Turkish Aerospace agreement for F404 engines on the HÜRJET trainer.
Durability Kits and Time on Wing Culp also updated investors on the LEAP durability kit rollout, a fix aimed at improving time on wing in hot and harsh operating environments. “Our narrowbody engine, our LEAP engine, saw a durability kit introduced last year on the Airbus version of that engine. We’ve got 40% of the fleet retrofitted already performing very well,” he said. GE has previously said the LEAP-1B durability kit is now certified, targeting roughly a 2x improvement in time on wing, with full cutover expected at the beginning of 2027.
What to Watch GE shares opened at $348.83 on Monday, July 20, up 13.55% year to date and up 34.7% over one year, against a Wall Street analyst target price of $397.86. Boeing sits at $214.03, down 1.42% year to date, a divergence that captures which side of the airframe-engine partnership has been executing at scale.

FARNBOROUGH, England, July 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Hybrid electric system enabled aircraft to reach more than 30,000 feetFirst public demonstration takes place at Farnborough International Airshow FARNBOROUGH, England – July 20, 2026 – GE Aerospace (NYSE: GE) announced today at the Farnborough International Airshow an industry first to advance the future of flight, demonstrating the viability of more electric aircraft engine systems for aviation.
In collaboration with NASA, BETA Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BETA) (“BETA”) and Boeing, GE Aerospace conducted the first hybrid electric flight above 30,000 feet, reaching the same altitude levels of passenger commercial aircraft. During tests, the team’s single longest flight in hybrid electric operation was more than two hours.
The record-breaking test campaign was enabled by GE Aerospace’s fully integrated megawatt-class and multi-kilovolt hybrid electric propulsion system developed through the NASA Electrified Powertrain Flight Demonstration (EPFD) project.
H. Lawrence Culp, Jr., Chairman and CEO, GE Aerospace, said, “The aviation industry’s first high-altitude hybrid electric flight is one for the history books. GE Aerospace is grateful to NASA, BETA Technologies and Boeing for their collaborative partnership to accelerate hybrid electric technology to meet customer needs for greater efficiency, durability and range.”
The right side of the EPFD aircraft, a Saab 340B, was modified for flight tests with a hybrid electric system that fits inside an inverted nacelle, providing extra ventilation. The system includes GE Aerospace-developed motor/generators, power converters and inverters, controllers, Avio Aero* gearboxes, Dowty* propellers, Unison* heat exchangers, torque sensing, and engine harnesses, and a CT7 engine. BAE Systems provided the batteries used and Boeing subsidiary Aurora Flight Sciences supplied the complete nacelle.
Pilots from GE Aerospace and BETA Technologies supported flight tests in the U.S., where the historic milestone was achieved. BETA Technologies served as the systems integrator and BETA pilots ferried the aircraft to the UK for the airshow, operating in hybrid electric mode during each leg of the journey.
Kyle Clark, Founder and CEO of BETA, said, “This hybrid electric system improved the high-altitude performance and climb capability while creating a flying laboratory to inform all future hybrid designs. The GE Aerospace team brought rigorous design, test and operational expertise. The ground and safe flight test campaigns, capped by a flight across the North Atlantic, is the first of many important milestones for hybrid electric technology.”
Public demonstration flights are planned as part of daily Farnborough flying displays. Airshow attendees can also see the aircraft on static display before the afternoon flight schedules.
Graham Drozeski, CTO of Aurora Flight Sciences, a Boeing company, said: “This team delivered multiple first-of-a-kind advancements to successfully integrate a high-voltage electrified propulsion system into an aircraft operating at commercial altitudes. Together, we’ve taken a significant step forward in hybrid-electric technology.
Hybrid Electric Benefits
A hybrid electric engine system combines an electric powertrain with a traditional gas turbine to optimize power management during different phases of operation. Hybrid electric systems are highly compatible with different fuel types and advanced aircraft engine architectures like Open Fan.
As electric vehicles become more common on the ground, there are many unique challenges for more electric skies. Engineering and test teams addressed heat management, lower atmospheric pressures and power density using flightworthy components that meet higher safety and reliability requirements than typical test hardware. During flight tests, the electric powertrain helped successfully power the propeller and generated power to the battery.
Mohamed Ali, President and CEO, GE Aerospace Commercial Engines & Services, said, “Hybrid electric technologies are durable and efficient. By flying a hybrid electric engine system at altitudes never achieved before, we’re proving to our customers and to the industry the advanced capabilities we can bring to next-generation aircraft with ready technologies.”
Hybrid Electric Experience
GE Aerospace was first awarded the NASA EPFD contract in 2021 to demonstrate flight readiness of hybrid electric technologies for single-aisle aircraft.
Several key milestones have been achieved over the last decade for hybrid electric technology development:
2016: An electric motor-driven propeller ground test;2022: The world’s first test of a megawatt-class and multi-kilovolt hybrid electric propulsion system in altitude conditions up to 45,000 feet at the NASA Electric Aircraft Testbed facility that simulated single-aisle commercial flight;2025: A strategic partnership and equity investment announced with BETA Technologies to accelerate hybrid electric aviation included plans to co-develop a hybrid electric turbogenerator for Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and other applications.2025: Successfully demonstrating a narrowbody hybrid electric configuration with power transfer and injection in a modified high-bypass turbofan engine – no energy storage required – through the NASA HyTEC project; and2026: Ground tests of the megawatt-class hybrid electric propulsion system developed through NASA’s EPFD program, paving the way for flight tests announced today. CFM RISE Program Testing
GE Aerospace has leveraged several NASA projects to mature technologies for more electric aircraft engines through the CFM International RISE** program. Unveiled in 2021, the RISE program is one of the aviation industry’s most comprehensive technology demonstrators with approximately 500 test campaigns and more than 3,000 endurance cycles completed to date, including tests on Open Fan, compact core, hybrid electric systems and other technologies. The RISE program prioritizes safety, durability and efficiency, targeting more than 20% better fuel burn compared to commercial engines in service today.
* Avio Aero, Dowty and Unison are GE Aerospace companies.
** Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines (RISE) is a technology demonstration program of CFM International, a 50-50 joint company between GE Aerospace and Safran Aircraft Engines. It is not a product offered for commercial sale.

GE Aerospace po rekordním čtvrtletí uvedla, že problémem není poptávka, ale kapacita výroby a servisu. Firma zvýšila výhled a má backlog komerčních služeb zhruba 170 miliard USD.
In fact, despite one of the company’s strongest quarters in recent memory, Culp insisted there would be “no victory laps.”
The comment wasn’t about managing expectations. It reflected a broader shift in GE Aerospace’s investment story. For years, investors worried whether commercial aviation demand would fully recover after the pandemic. Now, management says the bigger challenge is keeping up with it.
Demand Isn’t The Problem AnymoreThe clearest evidence came during the question-and-answer session, when Culp described the company’s outlook beyond 2026.
“It’s much more a supply side challenge than it is demand,” Culp said, adding that “there are no victory laps here in Evendale today” as the company prepares for another year of growth.
That theme surfaced repeatedly throughout the call.
Culp said customer behavior has remained resilient despite macro uncertainty, pointing to robust service orders, declining parked aircraft and an oversubscribed maintenance network as signs that airlines continue investing in engine maintenance and fleet availability. He added that demand has been “far more resilient than maybe many of us would have expected.”
Mohamed Ali, president and CEO of Commercial Engines & Services, delivered perhaps the simplest summary of management’s view. “We do not have a demand problem,” Ali said.
Instead, executives repeatedly pointed to supply chain capacity, manufacturing throughput and maintenance output as the factors that will determine how much of that demand GE Aerospace can ultimately convert into revenue.
The Next Growth Story Is ExecutionThat helps explain why Culp spent as much time discussing Flight Deck, supplier collaboration and factory productivity as he did the quarter’s financial results.
The company highlighted AI-enabled process improvements that cut demand-signal processing time by nearly 90%, production initiatives that reduced lead times for critical engine components, and supplier Kaizens that improved inspection times by 90%.
Those efforts are aimed at solving what management increasingly sees as its primary bottleneck: delivering enough engines, spare parts and shop visits to satisfy an industry where demand continues to outpace available capacity.
The strategy appears to be working. GE Aerospace ended the quarter with a commercial services backlog of roughly $170 billion, while CFO Rahul Ghai said more than 95% of third-quarter spare-parts revenue is already backed by orders in hand and planned shop removals exceed the company’s full-year guidance by more than 40%.
Why Investors Should Pay AttentionMany industrial companies spend earnings calls convincing investors that demand is healthy. GE Aerospace largely skipped that conversation.
Instead, management argued that the long-term opportunity is already in place, supported by an installed engine base of roughly 80,000 engines, decades-long service contracts and a growing aftermarket business. The focus now is on expanding capacity fast enough to capitalize on it.
That’s why Culp’s “no victory laps” remark may have been the most revealing quote of the call. Even after raising guidance across the board, GE Aerospace’s leadership is signaling that future shareholder returns will depend less on whether airlines keep flying and more on whether the company can continue removing the operational bottlenecks standing between record demand and record results.

• GE Aerospace stock is trading at elevated levels. Where are GE shares going?
Analysts expect the company to report earnings of $1.85 per share on $11.79 billion in quarterly revenue, according to Benzinga Pro. The stock also carries a consensus price forecast of $297.65, based on ratings from 27 analysts.
Guidance Increase Anticipated on Service GrowthRBC Capital Markets expects GE Aerospace to raise its full-year 2026 adjusted earnings before interest and taxes guidance by approximately $500 million, matching historical outperformance trends where the company beat its initial guidance by 16% in 2024 and 13% in 2025.
Herbert noted that capacity constraints, legacy engine usage and strong airline demand protect aftermarket engine spending. RBC models 19% services growth for the second quarter and 18% for the full year.
Near-Term Catalyst Potential Diminished by 2027 ConcernsThe report indicates that the upcoming second-quarter results may not serve as a positive catalyst for the stock, as market expectations already factor in the strong performance and guidance lift.
RBC Capital Markets notes that investor attention is shifting toward 2027, where tougher year-over-year comparisons and a projected deceleration in services growth could create headwinds for investor sentiment.
Supply Chain Tightness Extends Turn-Around TimesRBC Capital Markets reported that while material flow has improved, turnaround times at maintenance facilities remain well above historical averages. “LEAP deliveries remain on track for ~2,100,” Herbert stated, but emphasized that the broader aerospace supply chain remains tight, leaving a slim margin for error despite on-track deliveries for new engines.
Geopolitical Headwinds Offset by Structural ProtectionsThe firm noted the stock has risen 3% since March 1, recovering from the initial downturn tied to the Iran war. Elevated crude oil prices, which sit at approximately $85 per barrel after peaking in May, have not reduced passenger travel enough to impact aftermarket spending.
RBC Capital Markets stated that the $400 price forecast reflects 39 times its fiscal year 2028 free cash flow estimate of $10.5 billion.

GE Aerospace letos vzrostla asi o 43 % a investoři čekají na výsledky, které mají ukázat, zda firma obhájí vysoké ocenění. Analytici ve 2. čtvrtletí čekají tržby 11,85 miliardy USD a EPS 1,85 USD.
GE Aerospace stock has rallied strongly over the past year, gaining about 43% as robust demand for commercial aviation and sustained defense spending in the United States and other key markets continued to support growth. The stock was trading at around $359 in pre-market trading, with investors awaiting the company's earnings report for fresh insight into its financial performance and whether it can justify its premium valuation.
GE Aerospace, one of the biggest industrial companies in the United States, has done well in the past few years, helped by its growing market share in the civil aviation and defense spending in the US and other allied countries.
The company will publish its financial results later this week, shedding more color on its business during the quarter. Data compiled by Yahoo Finance shows that the average estimate among analysts is that its revenue jumped by 16.7% in the second quarter to $11.85 billion.
Analysts also suspect that earnings per share (EPS) is expected to jump to $1.85 from the previous $1.66. Historically, the company has a long track record of doing better than what analysts expect.
Most notably, GE Aerospace’s annual revenue is expected to continue growing, with the annual figure expected to come in at $48.8 billion, followed by $53.76 billion next year.
A potential catalyst for the company is that it received some orders during President Donald Trump's trip to China. Chinese companies ordered 200 Boeing aircraft and related equipment, with many of them being powered by CFM, a joint venture of GE and Safran.
Valuation concerns remain A major concern among analysts and investors is that the company has become highly overvalued, with most metrics being much higher than other companies, including fast-growing companies like NVIDIA, AMD, and Micron.
SeekingAlpha data shows that the company has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 47, higher than the sector median of 20. Including growth, the forward PEG ratio is 3.14, also higher than the sector median of 1.68.
The same valuation figure is also visible when using the discounted free cash flow (DCF) approach. A report by Simply Wall St. estimates that the company’s fair value is $248, meaning that it is 44.6% overvalued.
As such,the company will need to provide strong revenue, earnings, and backlog numbers to justify the valuation.
Analysts are largely optimistic about the company, with Susquehanna’s Charles Minervino hiking the target from $380 to $430. Sheila Kahyaoglu, a top analyst from Jefferies, hiked the target from $365 to $455, while Citigroup hiked to $431.
GE Aerospace stock chart | Source: TradingView
The daily chart shows that the GE Aerospace stock jumped to a high of $383 on July 2nd, and then pulled back to the current $359.
This price remains slightly above the important support of $347, its highest point on February 24. It was the upper side of the cup-and-handle pattern, a common bullish continuation sign in technical analysis.
Therefore, the most likely scenario is where the stock drops and retests the support at $347, and then resumes the uptrend. In the future, despite the valuation concerns, the stock may jump to the key resistance level of $400.

GE Aerospace vykázala v 1. čtvrtletí upravený EPS 1,86 USD při tržbách 12,39 miliardy USD a potvrdila celoroční výhled. Před výsledky za 2. čtvrtletí má backlog komerčních služeb 170 miliard USD.
GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE | GE Price Prediction) looks like one of the cleanest large-cap industrial setups going into its July 16 earnings call, and the case for owning it does not hinge on waiting for the report. GE Aerospace releases Q2 2026 results before market open on July 16, and the setup rewards conviction. Prediction markets have already priced in a beat, analyst coverage is stacked to one side and the fundamentals leave almost no room for a downside surprise.
The Numbers Force the Decision Start with Q1 2026. Adjusted EPS printed $1.86 against a $1.60 consensus, a 16.25% beat, on revenue of $12.39 billion, up 24.74% year over year. Orders exploded 87% to $23.0 billion. Free cash flow rose 27.44% to $1.66 billion. That was the fourth consecutive quarterly beat, and GE has now beaten in five out of the last five quarters with surprise margins between 9.79% and 17.32%. The one-week average return following those beats was 2.43%.
Backlog Backstops the Guide Full-year 2026 guidance is intact and trending to the high end: adjusted EPS of $7.10 to $7.40, free cash flow of $8 billion to $8.4 billion, and operating profit of $9.85 billion to $10.25 billion. CEO Larry Culp put it plainly on the Q1 call: “If it were not for current events, we would be talking about an increase in the guide this morning.”
The visibility is real. Commercial services backlog stands at $170 billion, and CFO Rahul Ghai confirmed that entering Q2, 95% of spare parts revenue is already in backlog and all shop visits for the quarter are off wing.

The market expects GE Aerospace (GE - Free Report) to deliver a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. This widely-known consensus outlook is important in assessing the company's earnings picture, but a powerful factor that might influence its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.
The earnings report, which is expected to be released on July 16, might help the stock move higher if these key numbers are better than expectations. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.
While the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call, it's worth handicapping the probability of a positive EPS surprise.
Zacks Consensus EstimateThis industrial conglomerate is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.86 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +12.1%.
Revenues are expected to be $11.86 billion, up 16.8% from the year-ago quarter.
Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.
Investors should keep in mind that an aggregate change may not always reflect the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts.
Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core.
The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.
Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.
A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.
Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).
How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for GE?For GE, the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +2.79%.
On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #2.
So, this combination indicates that GE will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate.
Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?While calculating estimates for a company's future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.
For the last reported quarter, it was expected that GE would post earnings of $1.61 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.86, delivering a surprise of +15.53%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates four times.
Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.
That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.
GE appears a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.
