MD&A

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (MD&A)

PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements of General Electric Company (the Company) combine the industrial manufacturing and services businesses of General Electric Company (GE) with the financial services businesses of GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC (GE Capital or Financial Services) ~~and its predecessor, General Electric Capital Corporation.~~.

We believe that investors will gain a better understanding of our company if they understand how we measure and talk about our results. Because of the diversity in our businesses, we present our financial statements in a three-column format, which allows investors to see our industrial operations separately from our Financial Services operations. We believe that this provides useful information to investors. When used in this report, unless otherwise indicated by the context, we use the terms to mean the following:

General Electric or the Company – the parent company, General Electric Company.

GE – the adding together of all affiliates except GE Capital, whose continuing operations are presented on a one-line basis, giving effect to the elimination of transactions among such affiliates. As GE presents the continuing operations of GE Capital on a one-line basis, certain intercompany profits resulting from transactions between GE and GE Capital have been eliminated at the GE level. We present the results of GE in the center column of our consolidated statements of earnings (loss), financial position and cash flows. An example of a GE metric is GE cash from operating activities (GE CFOA).

General Electric Capital Corporation or GECC – predecessor to GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC.

GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC or GECGH – ~~successor~~the adding together of ~~GECC.~~all affiliates of GECGH, giving effect to the elimination of transactions among such affiliates.

GE Capital or Financial Services – refers to GECGH ~~or its predecessor GECC,~~ and is the adding together of all affiliates of GE Capital giving effect to the elimination of transactions among such affiliates. We present the results of GE Capital in the right-side column of our consolidated statements of earnings (loss), financial position and cash flows.

GE consolidated – the adding together of GE and GE Capital, giving effect to the elimination of transactions between the two. We present the results of GE consolidated in the left-side column of our consolidated statements of earnings (loss), financial position and cash flows.

GE Industrial – GE excluding the continuing operations of GE Capital. We believe that this provides investors with a view as to the results of our industrial businesses and corporate items. An example of ana GE Industrial metric is GE Industrial ~~CFOA~~free cash flows (Non-GAAP), ~~which is~~as defined in Other Terms Used by GE ~~CFOA excluding the effects of dividends from GE Capital.~~below.

Industrial segment – the sum of our seven industrial reporting segments, without giving effect to the elimination of transactions among such segments and between these segments and our Financial Services segment. This provides investors with a view as to the results of our industrial segments, without inter-segment eliminations and corporate items. An example of an industrial segment metric is industrial segment revenue growth.

Baker Hughes, a GE company or BHGE - following the combination of our Oil & Gas business with Baker Hughes Incorporated, our Oil & Gas segment is comprised of our ownership interest of approximately 62.5% in the new company formed in the transaction, Baker Hughes, a GE Company (BHGE). We consolidate 100% of BHGE's revenues and cash flows, while our Oil & Gas segment ~~operating~~ profit and net income are derived net of minority interest of approximately 37.5% attributable to BHGE's Class A shareholders. References to "Baker Hughes" represent legacy Baker Hughes Incorporated operating activities which, in certain cases, have been excluded from our results for comparative purposes.

Total segment – the sum of our seven industrial segments and one financial services segment, without giving effect to the elimination of transactions between such segments. This provides investors with a view as to the results of all of our segments, without inter-segment eliminations and corporate items.

~~Verticals or GE Capital Verticals~~ – the adding together of GE Capital businesses that we expect to retain, principally its vertical financing businesses—GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS), Energy Financial Services (EFS) and Industrial Finance (which includes Healthcare Equipment Finance, Working Capital Solutions and Industrial Financing Solutions)—that relate to the Company’s core industrial domain and other operations, including our run-off insurance activities, and allocated corporate costs.

We integrate acquisitions as quickly as possible. Revenues and earnings from the date we complete the acquisition through the end of the fourth quarter following the acquisition are considered the acquisition effect of such businesses.

Discussion of GE Capital’s total assets includes deferred income tax liabilities, which are presented within assets for purposes of our consolidated Statement of Financial Position presentations for this filing.

Amounts reported in billions in graphs within this report are computed based on the amounts in millions. As a result, the sum of the components reported in billions may not equal the total amount reported in billions due to rounding. Certain columns and rows within the tables may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions.

Flannery succeeded Mr. Immelt as CEO effective August 1, 2017. Mr. Flannery also joined the Board of Directors on that date. Mr. Immelt remained Chairman of the Board for a transition period through October 2, 2017, at which point Mr. Flannery succeeded Mr. Immelt as Chairman.

On October 6, 2017, we announced that, effective November 1, 2017, Jamie S. Miller, will become Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Jeffrey S. Bornstein. Mr. Bornstein will remain a Vice Chairman through December 31, 2017. Ms. Miller also serves as a director at Baker Hughes, a GE company.

On October 9, 2017, we announced that Robert Lane retired from the Company’s Board of Directors (the Board) after 12 years of service, effective that same date. In addition, the Board elected Edward P. Garden as a director to fill the resulting vacancy, effective on that date. Mr. Garden is the Chief Investment Officer and a Founding Partner of Trian Fund Management, L.P. (Trian), an investment management firm.

~~2017 SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS~~

~~On January 10, 2017, we completed the acquisition of ServiceMax, a leader in cloud-based field service management (FSM) solutions, for $0.9 billion, net of cash acquired.~~

~~On April 20, 2017, we completed the acquisition of LM Wind Power, one of the world’s largest wind turbine blade manufacturers for approximately $1.6 billion, net of cash acquired.~~

On July 3, 2017, we completed the transaction to create BHGE. Under the terms of the deal, which we announced in October 2016, we combined our Oil & Gas business and Baker Hughes Incorporated (Baker Hughes) to create a new company in which GE holds an ownership interest of approximately 62.5% and former Baker Hughes shareholders hold an ownership interest of approximately 37.5%. Baker Hughes shareholders also received a cash dividend funded by a $7.5 billion cash contribution from GE.

~~MD&A~~	~~CONSOLIDATED RESULTS~~

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, GE Industrial profit was ~~$2.4~~$2.1 billion and ~~industrial~~GE Industrial margins were ~~7.6%~~7.7%, ~~down $0.3~~up $0.8 billion, or ~~240~~250 basis points, ~~versus the third quarter of 2016 primarily~~largely driven by a reduction in ~~Industrial~~Corporate costs of $0.7 billion primarily due to decreased restructuring and other costs and gains (losses) on business dispositions of $0.5 billion and decreased adjusted Corporate operating costs* of $0.2 billion. Industrial segment profit ~~of $0.7~~decreased $0.1 billion, or 16%. After adjusting segment operating profit of $3.6 billion for restructuring charges of $0.3 billion related to Oil & Gas, which, subsequent to the Baker Hughes transaction, are recorded in the segment rather than at Corporate, adjusted Industrial segment operating profit* was down $0.4 billion, or 10%. The decline in adjusted Industrial segment operating profit* was5%, primarily due to lower results within our Power and Oil & Gas segments, partially offset by the performance of our ~~remaining industrial segments, which had increases in organic revenues* of 2%~~Aviation and ~~adjusted Industrial segment operating profit* of 23%, including lower Corporate costs.~~

~~Beginning in~~Healthcare segments. In the ~~third~~first quarter of 2017, the Energy Connections business within the former Energy Connections & Lighting segment was combined with the Power segment and presented as one reporting segment called Power. The Power segment experienced a revenue decline2018, we delivered $0.8 billion of ~~4% and an operating profit decline of 51% versus the third quarter of 2016. Power revenues were $8.7 billion, with equipment revenues down 3% and service revenues down 4%.~~

~~The decline in Power segment results was primarily driven by three factors:~~

A decline in year-over-year results, principally in our service business, lower shipments of our aeroderivative products, and performance of our Power Conversion business. Within services, we sold fewer Advanced Gas Path (AGP) upgrades and experienced lower outages. Services outages were down 18% versus the third quarter of 2016. Aeroderivative units were down 32 versus the third quarter of 2016. Our markets have also been challenged by the increasing penetration of renewables, fleet penetration for AGPs, lower capacity payments, utilization, and outages. We expect these conditions to persist through the fourth quarter and into 2018.

Second, we experienced project delays and incurred costs associated with certain quality matters. In addition, we recognized a bad debt reserve for a Venezuelan customer receivable. The net effect of these items amounted to approximately $0.1 billion.

Third, the mix effect of having lower volume in our high-margin aero and service businesses, and higher volume in low-margin grid and balance of plant revenues resulted in a substantial margin headwind.

~~Refer to the Power segment results section within this MD&A for further information.~~

Beginning in the third quarter of 2017, our Oil & Gas segment is comprised of our ownership interest of approximately 62.5% in the combined BHGE entity. We consolidate 100% of BHGE’s revenues and cash flows while segment operating profit and net income are derived net of minority ownership interest of approximately 37.5% attributable to BHGE’s Class A shareholders. Also, the operating profit we report for our Oil & Gas segment is adjusted for GE reporting conventions, such asstructural cost* reduction, excluding ~~restructuring and other charges. Therefore, our operating profit of approximately 62.5% will differ from BHGE's operating income as reported in its standalone financial statements.~~

~~During the third quarter of 2017, Oil & Gas reported revenues of $5.4 billion, an increase of 81% versus the third quarter of 2016, driven by~~ the effects of ~~the~~acquisition and disposition activity and with Baker Hughes transaction. Adjusting for the Baker Hughes transaction, segment revenues* were $2.8 billion in the quarter, down 5% due to continued weakness in the oil and gas market. Segment operating profit (loss) was $(36) million, or $231 million after adjusting for restructuring and other charges reported in the segment*. The decline in segment operating profit (after adjusting for restructuring and other charges reported in the segment*) of 35% was primarily driven by longer cycle oilfield equipment business. Refer to the Oil & Gas segment results section within this MD&A for further information.on a pro forma basis.

GE CFOA was ~~$4.1~~$(1.0) billion and ~~$18.3~~$0.4 billion for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~and 2016,~~ respectively. The decline in GE CFOA is primarily due to a ~~$12.0~~$2.0 billion decrease in dividends from GE ~~Capital, reflecting a decrease in proceeds from GE Capital Exit Plan disposals.~~Capital. GE CFOA was also impacted by lower earnings from Power and Oil & Gas, as well as ~~lower than expected~~higher cash used for working capital ~~improvements.~~compared to 2017, partially offset by Aviation, Healthcare and strong Corporate cost reduction. Additionally, GE CFOA was negatively impacted by GE Pension Plan ~~payments~~contributions of ~~$1.4~~$0.3 billion in ~~2017,~~2018, compared to ~~zero~~no such contributions in the prior ~~year period. Further, due to our ongoing insurance actuarial review, we have deferred the decision whether~~year.

Refer to the GE Cash Flows and Critical Accounting Estimates sections within this MD&A for further information.~~foreseeable future.

As noted in the second quarter of 2017 earnings release presentation, Mr. Flannery is conducting a comprehensive review of the Company, including a review of the Company’s business units, the GE Store and Corporate. Mr. Flannery provided an update on this review as part of the third quarter earnings release presentation, at which time he stated that management had identified $20 billion plus of assets that would be exited in the next one to two years. On November 13, 2017, Mr. Flannery will present to investors outlining, among other items, the results of the business assessment, cost reduction actions, capital allocation and 2018 outlook. We expect additional restructuring charges related to cost reduction actions, and held-for-sale and other associated charges related to the exit or sale of assets or businesses.

In the below discussion, GE Industrial refers to GE excluding the continuing operations of GE Capital. Industrial segment refers to the sum of our seven industrial reporting segments, without giving effect to corporate items or the elimination of transactions among such segments and between these segments and our Financial Services segment.

COMMENTARY: ~~2017~~2018 - ~~2016~~2017

~~THREE MONTHS~~

Consolidated continuing earnings increased $0.2 billion due to increased GE Industrial continuing earnings of $0.6 billion, partially offset by increased Financial Services losses of $0.2 billion, increased GE Industrial income taxes of $0.1 billion and increased interest and other financial charges of $0.1 billion.

GE Industrial earnings increased $0.6 billion, or 44%, driven by an increase in Corporate profit of $0.7 billion, partially offset by a decrease in industrial segment profit of $0.1 billion.

Corporate profit increased $0.7 billion primarily attributable to decreased restructuring and other costs and gains (losses) on business dispositions of $0.5 billion and decreased adjusted Corporate operating costs* of $0.2 billion.

~~Industrial~~

~~Earnings decreased $2.1 billion, or 98%, excluding the $1.9 billion after-tax gain recorded at Corporate from the sale of our Water business in the third quarter of 2017*.~~

Industrial segment profit decreased ~~$0.7~~$0.1 billion, or ~~16%~~5%, ~~due to organic operating decreases* of $0.6 billion~~with decreases at Oil & Gas, Power and Lighting partially offset by higher earnings at Aviation, Healthcare, Transportation and Renewable Energy. This decrease in industrial segment profit was primarily driven by restructuring and business development costs related to Baker Hughes of $0.3 billion and the net effects of dispositions of $0.1 billion, partly associated with the absence of Water following its sale in the third quarter of 2017, partially offset by the net effects of acquisitions $0.1 billion, largely associated with Baker Hughes. Excluding these items, industrial segment organic profit* increased $0.1 billion.

Foreign exchange adversely affected GE Industrial operating earnings by an insignificant amount in the first quarter of 2018.

Financial Services losses increased $0.2 billion, mainly due to lower gains, lower earnings from asset levels due to the reduction in GE Capital, costs associated with calling debt, and a loss related to updates to the U.S. tax reform impact on energy investments, partially offset by lower corporate and restructuring costs.

GE DIGITAL

GE Digital's activities are focused on assisting in the market development of our digital product offerings through software design, fulfillment and product management, while also interfacing with our customers. Digital revenues include internally developed software and associated hardware, including Predix and software solutions that improve our customers’ asset performance. These revenues and associated costs are largely generated from our operating businesses and are included in their segment results.

Revenues were $1.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.1 ~~billion.~~

~~In addition, restructuring and other costs recorded at Corporate increased $1.3~~ billion ~~including non-cash impairment charges~~or 10% compared to revenues of $0.9 billion ~~related to goodwill~~for the three months ended March 31, 2017. These increases were primarily driven by Oil & Gas, Power, Aviation and ~~$0.3~~Healthcare.

Orders were $0.9 billion ~~related to a power plant asset. Gains recorded at Corporate decreased $0.2 billion, excluding~~for both the ~~$1.9 billion pre-tax gain on the sale of our Water business.~~three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Increases in Transportation, Renewable Energy, Oil & Gas and Healthcare were offset by declines in Power, Current and non-GE Verticals.

~~Interest and other financial charges increased $0.2 billion while the provision for income taxes decreased $0.3 billion, excluding the tax impact from the sale of our Water business*.~~

~~The net effect of acquisitions on our consolidated operating earnings was a decrease of $0.2 billion while the net effect of dispositions was an increase of $1.4 billion in the third quarter of 2017.~~

Foreign exchange favorably affected industrial operating earnings by $0.1 billion as a result of both translational and transactional impacts related to remeasurement and mark-to-market charges on open hedges.

~~Financial Services~~


▪	Financial Services earnings decreased 8%, primarily due to lower tax benefits primarily associated with a 2016 IRS tax settlement, higher impairments and lower gains, partially offset by lower treasury and headquarters operation expenses associated with the GE Capital Exit Plan and core increases.

Industrial segment profit decreased $0.6 billion, or 5%, driven by restructuring costs related to Baker Hughes of $0.3 billion, organic operating decreases* of $0.2 billion and the net effects of dispositions of $0.2 billion, partially offset by the net effects of acquisitions of $0.1 billion.

In addition, restructuring and other costs recorded at Corporate increased $1.2 billion, including non-cash impairment charges of $0.9 billion related to goodwill and $0.3 billion related to a power plant asset. Gains recorded at Corporate decreased $0.3 billion, excluding the $3.1 billion pre-tax gain on the sale of Appliances in 2016 and the $1.9 billion pre-tax gain on the sale of our Water business in 2017.

Interest and other financial charges increased $0.4 billion while the provision for income taxes increased $0.5 billion, excluding the tax impacts from the sale of Appliances and the sale of our Water business*.

~~The net effect of acquisitions on our consolidated operating earnings was a decrease of $0.2 billion while the net effect of dispositions was a decrease of $1.2 billion in 2017.~~

~~Foreign exchange adversely affected industrial operating earnings by an insignificant amount in 2017.~~

~~Financial Services~~

Financial Services losses decreased $1.3 billion, or 87% primarily due to lower treasury and headquarters operation expenses associated with the GE Capital Exit Plan, lower preferred dividend expenses associated with the January 2016 preferred equity exchange and core increases, partially offset by lower gains, higher impairments and lower tax benefits primarily associated with a 2016 IRS tax settlement.

~~MD&A~~	~~SEGMENT OPERATIONS~~

REVENUES AND PROFIT

Segment revenues include ~~revenues~~sales of products and ~~other income~~services related to the segment.

Segment profit is determined based on internal performance measures used by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to assess the performance of each business in a given period. In connection with that assessment, the CEO may exclude matters, such as charges for restructuring, rationalization and other similar expenses, acquisition costs and other related charges, technology and product development costs, certain gains and losses from acquisitions or dispositions, and litigation settlements or other charges, for which responsibility preceded the current management team. Subsequent to the Baker Hughes transaction, restructuring and other charges are included in the determination of segment ~~operating~~ profit for our Oil & Gas segment. See the Corporate Items and Eliminations section within this MD&A for additional information about costs excluded from segment profit.

Segment profit excludes results reported as discontinued operations and material accounting ~~changes.~~changes other than those applied retrospectively. Segment profit also excludes the portion of earnings or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of consolidated subsidiaries, and as such only includes the portion of earnings or loss attributable to our share of the consolidated earnings or loss of consolidated subsidiaries.

Segment profit excludes or includes interest and other financial charges, non-operating benefit costs, income taxes, and preferred stock dividends according to how a particular segment’s management is measured:

Interest and other financial charges, income taxes, non-operating benefit costs and GE preferred stock dividends are excluded in determining segment profit (which we sometimes refer to as “operating profit”) for the industrial segments.

Interest and other financial charges, income taxes, non-operating benefit costs and GE Capital preferred stock dividends are included in determining segment profit (which we sometimes refer to as “net earnings”) for the Capital segment.

Other income is included in segment profit for the industrial segments.

Certain corporate costs, such as shared services, employee benefits, and information technology, are allocated to our segments based on usage. A portion of the remaining corporate costs is allocated based on each segment’s relative net cost of operations.

~~With respect to the segment revenue and profit walks, the overall effect of foreign exchange is included within multiple captions as follows:~~

~~The translational foreign exchange impact is included within Foreign Exchange.~~

~~The transactional impact of foreign exchange hedging is included in operating cost within Productivity and in other income within Other.~~

SIGNIFICANT SEGMENT DEVELOPMENTS

~~SALE~~CLASSIFICATION OF ~~APPLIANCES~~THE SUBSTANTIAL MAJORITY OF OUR LIGHTING SEGMENT AS HELD FOR SALE

~~On January 15, 2016,~~In February 2018, we ~~announced the signing of~~entered into an agreement to sell our ~~Appliances~~GE Lighting business in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Turkey and our Global Automotive Lighting business to Haier. On June 6, 2016, we completed the sale for proceeds of $5.6 billion (including $0.8 billion from the sale of receivables originated in our Appliances business and sold from GE Capital to Haier) and recognized an after-tax gain of $1.8 billion in 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Appliances contributed revenues of $2.6 billion and an operating profit of $0.3 billion.

~~CREATION OF BAKER HUGHES, A GE COMPANY~~

~~On July 3, 2017, we completed the transaction to create Baker Hughes,~~ a GE company (BHGE). Under the terms of the deal, which we announced in October 2016, we combined our Oil & Gas business and Baker Hughes Incorporated (Baker Hughes) to create a new company in which GE holds an ownership interest of approximately 62.5% and former Baker Hughes shareholders hold an ownership interest of approximately 37.5%. Baker Hughes shareholders also received a cash dividend fundedcontrolled by a $7.5 billion cash contribution from GE. The completion of the transaction followed the approval of Baker Hughes shareholders, regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. Effective July 3, 2017, the operations of Baker Hughes are reported in our Oil & Gas segment.

~~INCLUSION OF ENERGY CONNECTIONS IN POWER REPORTING SEGMENT~~

~~Beginning~~former GE executive in the ~~third~~region. We expect to close substantially all of this deal in the second quarter of 2017, the Energy Connections business within the former Energy Connections & Lighting segment was combined with the Power segment and presented as one reporting segment called Power. As a result of the combination, our GE Lighting and Current, powered by GE (Current) businesses are now reported as a separate segment called Lighting.2018.

Remaining performance obligation is a defined term under GAAP. See Other Terms Used section within MD&A and Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements for further information. Adjustments to reported backlog are largely driven by the Aviation business: (1) backlog includes engine contracts for which we have received purchase orders that are cancelable. We have included these in backlog as our historical experience has shown no net cancellations, as any canceled engines are typically moved by the airframer to other program customers; (2) our services backlog includes contracts that are cancelable without substantial penalty, primarily time and materials contracts; (3) backlog includes engines contracted under long-term service agreements, even if the engines have not yet been put into service.

Segment revenues up ~~$2.4~~$2.3 billion ~~(81%~~(74%);

Segment profit down $0.4 ~~billion (110%):~~billion:

Stability in the oil and gas market since the second half of 2017 has led to continued improvements in activity. North American onshore rig count has continued to grow, and international rig count has also seen moderate increases. Offshore projects remain subject to increases in customer spending behavior, and final investment decisions on liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects are also expected to start in late 2018 as the market continues to be oversupplied.

The ~~increase~~Baker Hughes acquisition in July 2017 contributed $2.6 billion of inorganic revenue growth in the first quarter of 2018. Legacy Oil & Gas equipment and services revenues ~~was~~decreased due to lower volume primarily ~~driven~~at TPS and OFE as a result of the market conditions and lower opening backlog. These decreases were partially offset by the effects of ~~Baker Hughes,~~ a weaker U.S. dollar versus the euro and increased other income including a reduction in foreign exchange transactional losses, partially offset by negative market conditions which resulted in lower organic equipment volume primarily in Oilfield Equipment.euro.

The decrease in ~~operating~~ profit was primarily driven by negative variable cost productivity ~~as well as~~and restructuring and other charges, partially offset by increased volume from Baker ~~Hughes.~~Hughes and synergies delivered from combining the two companies.

~~Segment revenues up $2.0 billion (21%);~~

•	The North American market continues to see some fleet overcapacity (which is declining) and constrained spending by the railroads limiting fleet expansion. However, total rail volume increased 2.4% during the first quarter of 2018 driven primarily by an increase in intermodal traffic^(a). With improving carload volume, the number of parked locomotives has decreased 18% from the prior year.

Equipment volume decreased primarily driven by lower locomotive shipments in North America due to continuing challenging market conditions. Services revenues increased as railroads are running their locomotives longer, and recently unparked locomotives tend to be older units in higher need of servicing and replacement parts, driving an increase in services volume and parts shipped.

The decrease in revenues was due to lower locomotive equipment volume as a result of decreased North America shipments, partially offset by increased international shipments and increased services volume including locomotive parts.

~~The decrease~~increase in profit was driven by ~~negative cost productivity, partially offset by a~~ favorable business ~~mix.~~mix from a higher proportion of services volume as well as lower engineering spend and the effects of restructuring actions.

SIGNIFICANT TRENDS & DEVELOPMENTS

As of March 30, 2017, GE Capital’s non-US activities are no longer subject to consolidated supervision by the U.K.’s Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA). This completes GE Capital’s global exit from consolidated supervision, having had its designation as a Systemically Important Financial Institution (SIFI) removed in June 2016.

GE Capital paid common dividends of ~~$4.0~~$2.0 billion to GE in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2017, and did not pay a dividend in the three months ended March 31, 2018. In addition, GE Capital does not expect to make a common share dividend distribution to GE for the foreseeable future.

In 2018, we announced plans to take actions to make GE Capital smaller and more focused, including a substantial reduction in the size of GE Capital’s Energy Financial Services and Industrial Finance businesses over the next 24 months.

~~Our run-off~~In the three months ended March 31, 2018, GE Capital contributed capital to its insurance ~~activities include~~subsidiaries of $3.5 billion and expects to contribute approximately an additional $11 billion through 2024 subject to monitoring by the Kansas Insurance Department. GE is required to maintain specified capital levels at these insurance subsidiaries under capital maintenance agreements. We perform premium deficiency testing at least annually. Any future adverse changes in our assumptions could result in an increase to future policy benefit ~~reserves of $19.2~~reserves. For example, a hypothetical five percent increase in future claim costs, holding all other assumptions constant, would result in a $1.5 billion ~~and claim reserves of $4.9 billion at September 30, 2017 of which approximately~~ ~~$9.0 billion~~ ~~and $3.4 billion, respectively, relates~~increase to ~~long-term care insurance contracts. We test~~our future policy benefit ~~reserves associated with~~reserves. Similarly, a hypothetical 25 basis point decline in expected investment yield, holding all other assumptions constant, would result in a $1.0 billion increase in future policy benefit reserves. Any favorable changes to these assumptions could result in additional margin in our run-off insurance activities for premium deficiencies annually. We have recently experienced elevated claim experience for a portion of our long-term care insurance contracts that requires the completion of a comprehensive review of premium deficiency ~~assumptions across all insurance products. This review will be completed in~~test and higher income over the ~~fourth quarter of 2017. Based upon the work performed to date and complexity~~remaining duration of the ~~review as further described within our Critical Accounting Estimates and~~portfolio, including higher investment income. See Note 1112 to the consolidated financial statements a charge related to a probable deficiency is not reasonably estimable at September 30, 2017. Until the above described review has been completed we have deferred the decision whether GE Capital will pay additional dividends to GE.

RESTRUCTURING

Restructuring actions are an essential component of our cost improvement efforts to both existing operations and those recently acquired. Restructuring and other charges relate primarily to workforce reductions, facility exit costs associated with the consolidation of sales, service and manufacturing facilities, the integration of recent acquisitions, including Alstom, the Baker Hughes transaction, and certain other asset ~~write-downs.~~write-downs such as those associated with product line exits. We continue to closely monitor the economic environment and may undertake further restructuring actions to more closely align our cost structure with earnings and cost reduction goals.

INCOME TAXES

GE pays the income taxes it owes in every country in which it does business. Many factors impact our income tax expense and cash tax payments. The most significant factor is that we conduct business in ~~approximately~~over 180 countries and ~~more than half~~the majority of our revenue is earned outside the U.S., ~~often~~including in countries with lower tax rates than in the U.S. We reinvest most of our foreign earnings overseas to be able to fund our active non-U.S. business operations. Our tax liability is also affected by U.S. and foreign tax incentives designed to encourage certain investments, ~~such as~~like research and ~~development,~~development; and by acquisitions, dispositions and tax law changes. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted legislation commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”) that lowers the statutory tax rate on our U.S. earnings, taxes historic foreign earnings at a reduced rate of tax, creates a territorial tax system and enacts new taxes associated with global operations. Our provisional estimate of the transition tax on historic foreign earnings and the effect on our deferred taxes is described in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements. Finally, our tax returns are routinely audited, and settlements of issues raised in these audits sometimes affect our tax rates.

GE and GE Capital file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. This enables GE and GE Capital to use tax deductions and credits of one member of the group to reduce the tax that otherwise would have been payable by another member of the group. The effective tax rate reflects the benefit of these tax reductions in the consolidated return. GE makes cash payments to GE Capital for tax reductions and GE Capital pays for tax increases at the time GE’s tax payments are due.

See Other Consolidated Information - Income Taxes section and Critical Accounting Estimates - Income Taxes section within MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2016~~2017 for further information on income taxes.

~~PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES~~

~~2017~~2018 – ~~2016~~2017 COMMENTARY: THREE MONTHS ENDED ~~SEPTEMBER 30~~MARCH 31

The consolidated income tax rate was ~~(23)~~(7)% and 1%198% for the quarters ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~and 2016,~~ respectively.

~~The third quarter 2017 consolidated tax rate reflects a 128% tax rate on $0.2 billion of pre-tax loss at GE Capital and a (4)% tax rate* on $1.7 billion of pre-tax income at GE.~~

~~The third quarter 2016 consolidated tax rate reflects a 137% tax rate on $0.2 billion of pre-tax loss at GE Capital and a 11% tax rate* on $2.2 billion of pre-tax income at GE.~~

The consolidated ~~tax provision includes $0.1 billion benefit and $0.2 billion expense for GE (excluding GE Capital) for the third quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.~~

~~Consolidated~~ income tax benefit was ~~$0.3 billion~~an insignificant amount in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2018 and ~~insignificant~~$0.1 billion for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2017. The ~~decrease in~~ tax ~~expense is primarily~~benefit decreased due to ~~the benefit from~~ a lower ~~tax rate on the disposition of the Water business, a larger~~ benefit from global activities relative to the U.S. statutory rate and ~~a decrease~~the cost of the newly enacted base erosion and global intangible income provisions and by an increase in ~~pre-tax~~pretax income ~~taxed at above the average tax rate,~~subject to tax. This was partially offset by an adjustment to the 2018 three-month provision that decreased the rate to be in line with the lower projected full year rate while in 2017, the first quarter included an adjustment to increase the ~~2017 year-to-date~~three-month rate to be in line with the higher projected full year ~~rate compared to the decrease~~rate.

MD&A	OTHER CONSOLIDATED INFORMATION

~~2017 – 2016 COMMENTARY: NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30~~

~~The consolidated tax rate was (8)% in the first nine months of 2017 compared to 5% in the first nine months of 2016.~~

~~The first nine months of 2017 consolidated tax rate reflects a 110% tax rate on $0.5 billion of pre-tax loss at GE Capital and a 7% tax rate* on $4.4 billion of pre-tax income at GE.~~

~~The first nine months of 2016 consolidated tax rate reflects a 42% tax rate on $1.7 billion of pre-tax loss at GE Capital and a 13% tax rate* on $7.9 billion of pre-tax income at GE.~~

~~The consolidated tax provision includes $0.3 billion and $1.0 billion for GE (excluding GE Capital) for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.~~

Consolidated income tax benefit was $0.3 billion for the first nine months of 2017 compared to tax expense of $0.3 billion for the first nine months of 2016. The decrease in tax expense is primarily due to the decrease in pre-tax income taxed at above the average tax rate, a larger benefit from global activities and the benefit from a lower tax rate on the disposition of the Water business. This decrease was partially offset by the adjustment to increase the 2017 year-to-date rate to be in-line with the higher projected full-year rate compared to the decrease in the 2016 year-to-date rate to be in-line with the lower projected full-year rate and the non-repeat of a deductible stock loss. The adjustment to bring the third quarter year-to-date tax rate in-line with the full year rate decreased the tax rate relative to prior quarters of 2017 due to a decrease in projected full year pre-tax income.

The effective tax rate in future periods is expected to increase as a result of changes in our income profile due to changes in GE Capital earnings as we continue to execute on the GE Capital Exit Plan. We expect the GE effective tax rate excluding GE Capital earnings to be in the low single digits for the full year of 2017.

~~See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information related to income taxes.~~

BENEFITS FROM GLOBAL OPERATIONS

~~Our~~Absent the effects of U.S. tax reform, our consolidated income tax provision is reduced because of the benefits of lower-taxed global operations. ~~There~~The benefit was significant prior to the decrease in the U.S. statutory rate to 21% beginning in 2018. While reduced, there is still a benefit ~~from global operations~~ as certain non-U.S. income is subject to local country tax rates that are ~~significantly~~ below the ~~35%~~new U.S. statutory rate. These non-U.S. earnings have been indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S. and are not subject to current U.S. income tax. Most of these earnings have been reinvested in active non-U.S. business operations and we do not intend to repatriate these earnings to fund U.S. operations.

The rate of tax on our indefinitely reinvested non-U.S. earnings is below the historic 35% U.S. statutory tax rate because we have significant business operations subject to tax in countries where the tax on that income is lower than the U.S. statutory rate and because GE funds certain non-U.S. operations through foreign companies that are subject to low foreign taxes. Most of these earnings have been reinvested in active non-U.S. business operations and as of December 31, 2017, we had not decided to repatriate these earnings to the U.S. Given U.S. tax reform, substantially all of our prior unrepatriated earnings are subject to U.S. tax and accordingly we expect to have the ability to repatriate available non-U.S. cash from those earnings without additional U.S. federal tax cost and any foreign withholding taxes on a repatriation to the U.S. would potentially be partially offset by a U.S. foreign tax credit. We will update our analysis of investment in foreign earnings in 2018 as we consider the impact of U.S. tax reform.

A substantial portion of the benefit for lower-taxed non-U.S. earnings related to business operations subject to tax in countries where the tax on that income is lower than the U.S. statutory rate is derived from our GECAS aircraft leasing operations located in Ireland where the earnings are taxed at 12.5%, from our Power operations located in Switzerland and Hungary where the earnings are taxed at between 9% and 18.6%, and our Healthcare operations in Europe where tax deductions are allowed for certain intangible assets and earnings are taxed below the historic U.S. statutory rate.

~~We expect our ability~~Because the U.S. tax rate has been reduced to 21% beginning in 2018 and because the U.S. has adopted a territorial tax system and enacted new provisions of U.S. law related to taxation of global operations as part of U.S. tax reform, the overall tax benefit from non-U.S. operations compared to the U.S. statutory rate will be reduced or eliminated going forward as we also have non-U.S. operations taxed at close to the current U.S. statutory rate of 21% and non-U.S. operations with non-deductible losses and may incur additional taxes related to newly enacted U.S. tax provisions on global operations, as discussed below.

As part of U.S. tax reform, the U.S. has enacted a tax on “base eroding” payments from the U.S. We are evaluating the impact of this new provision on our operations and intend to undertake restructuring actions to avoid a significant impact from this provision. The U.S. has also enacted a minimum tax on foreign earnings (“global intangible low tax income”). Because we have tangible assets outside the U.S. and pay a rate of foreign tax above the minimum tax rate, we are not expecting a significant increase in tax liability from this new U.S. minimum tax. Because aspects of the new law and the effect on our operations is uncertain and because aspects of the accounting rules associated with the tax on global intangible low-taxed income have not been resolved, we have made an accrual for the current but not the deferred tax effects of this provision. Overall, we project a cost for the base erosion and global intangible low tax income provisions in 2018 that exceeds the net benefit of non-U.S. operations taxed at less than the 21% U.S. statutory tax rate.

We have not significantly adjusted our provisional estimate of the enactment of U.S. tax reform during the first quarter of 2018 as we continue to analyze information related to our operations as well as new guidance and other aspects of the enacted provisions. However, there were discrete changes associated with measurement period adjustments to purchase price allocation and the estimated impact of the change in tax rate ~~to continue, subject to changes~~on deferred taxes identified at Baker Hughes that reduced tax expense by $0.1 billion in ~~U.S. or foreign law. In addition, since~~the quarter. Primarily all of this benefit ~~depends on management’s intention~~relates to ~~indefinitely reinvest amounts outside the U.S., our tax provision will increase~~non-consolidated operations and did not affect net earnings attributable to the ~~extent we no longer indefinitely reinvest foreign earnings.~~company as there is an offsetting adjustment in income from noncontrolling interests. Partially offsetting this benefit was the cost relating to the revaluation of deferred taxes corresponding to measurement period adjustments to the purchase price allocation for the Baker Hughes acquisition.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations primarily ~~relate~~comprise residual assets and liabilities related to our exited U.S. mortgage business (WMC), as discussed in Legal Proceedings and Notes 2 and 19 to the consolidated financial ~~services~~statements, as well as our mortgage portfolio in Poland and trailing liabilities associated with the sale of our GE Capital businesses as a result of the GE Capital Exit Plan ~~and includes~~(our plan announced in 2015 to reduce the size of our ~~U.S. mortgage business (WMC)~~financial services businesses). ~~All of these operations were previously reported in the Capital segment.~~

Because GE and GE Capital share certain significant elements of their Statements of Financial Position, the following discussion addresses significant captions in the consolidated statement. Within the following discussions, however, we distinguish between GE and GE Capital activities in order to permit meaningful analysis of each individual consolidating statement.

MAJOR CHANGES IN OUR FINANCIAL POSITION FOR THE ~~NINE~~THREE MONTHS ENDED
~~SEPTEMBER 30, 2017~~MARCH 31, 2018

~~The Baker Hughes transaction increased total assets (excluding~~Cash, cash ~~assumed as a result~~equivalents and restricted cash decreased $11.8 billion.

~~Cash and equivalents decreased $8.3 billion.~~ GE Cash, cash equivalents and ~~equivalents increased $2.3~~restricted cash decreased $5.7 billion due to ~~the issuance~~net repayments of ~~long-term debt, primarily to fund acquisitions,~~borrowings of ~~$8.6~~$1.8 billion ~~debt effected through GE Capital~~(including $0.7 billion at BHGE), payments of ~~$7.3 billion,~~ common ~~dividends from GE Capital of $4.0 billion and proceeds from business dispositions of $2.9 billion. The increase was partially offset by payments of~~ dividends to shareowners of ~~$6.3 billion, business acquisitions of $6.1 billion (net of $4.1~~$1.0 billion, cash ~~assumed as a result~~used for operating activities of ~~the Baker Hughes transaction), treasury stock net purchases~~$1.0 billion, gross additions to PP&E and internal-use software of ~~$2.6 billion (cash basis), net PP&E additions of $2.2~~$1.0 billion, net ~~settlements~~investments in intangible assets of ~~derivative hedges of $1.4 billion, the settlement of the remaining portion of 2016 debt effected through GE Capital of $1.3~~$0.6 billion and ~~additions~~BHGE net stock repurchases and dividends to ~~capitalized software~~noncontrolling interests of ~~$0.4~~$0.3 billion.

GE Capital Cash, cash equivalents and ~~equivalents~~restricted cash as of March 31, 2018 was $19.0 billion and decreased ~~$10.6~~$6.1 billion primarily due to net repayments of ~~debt~~borrowings of ~~$17.6 billion, GE debt effected through GE Capital of $7.3~~$9.1 billion and ~~payments~~net purchases of ~~dividends to shareowners~~investment securities of ~~$4.2~~$2.6 billion, partially offset by maturities of liquidity investments of ~~$6.5~~$3.0 billion and net collections of financing receivables of ~~$3.2 billion, cash collections from discontinued operations of~~ $2.9 ~~billion, proceeds from borrowings assumed by the buyer in a business disposition of $1.8 billion and the settlement of the remaining portion of 2016 GE debt effected through GE Capital of $1.3~~ billion.

See the Statement of Cash Flows section for additional information.

Investment securities decreased ~~$5.6~~$1.5 billion, primarily due to maturities of liquidity portfolio investments and a decrease in net unrealized gains, partially offset by net purchases of investment securities at GE Capital. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

~~Inventories increased $1.5~~Current receivables decreased $1.6 billion, ~~(excluding the impact of the Baker Hughes transaction),~~ primarily due to ~~lower-than-anticipated sales volume, mainly~~collections of receivables sold by GE to GE Capital in ~~our Power segment and~~the fourth quarter of 2017 outpacing new volume. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Inventories increased $1.2 billion, primarily due to build for future demand in our Renewable Energy, Power, Aviation and ~~Renewable Energy~~Oil & Gas segments. See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Goodwill increased ~~$2.4~~$1.5 billion, ~~(excluding the impact of the Baker Hughes transaction),~~ primarily due to the effects of currency exchange of $2.3 billion, the acquisition of LM Wind Power in our Renewable Energy segment of $1.3 billion and the acquisition of ServiceMax in Digital of $0.7 billion, partially offset by the classification of the Industrial Solutions business in our Power segment as held for sale of $1.1 billion and ~~an impairment in the Power Conversion business in our Power segment~~purchase accounting adjustments of ~~$0.9~~$0.5 billion. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Contract and other deferred assets increased ~~$4.6~~$0.4 billion. Revenues in excess of billings increased ~~$2.6~~$0.2 billion and ~~$1.3~~$0.4 billion for our long-term service and equipment agreements, respectively. ~~The remaining increase~~These increases were partially offset by a decrease in ~~contract~~other deferred assets of ~~$0.7~~$0.2 billion, is primarily due ~~an increase~~to a decrease in deferred inventory ~~costs and non-recurring engineering~~ costs. ~~See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.~~

~~Assets of discontinued operations decreased $8.0 billion,~~ ~~primarily due to the disposition of businesses at GE Capital. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.~~

~~The Baker Hughes transaction increased total liabilities by $6.8 billion,~~ primarily due to borrowings of $3.4 billion, accounts payable of $1.1 billion, other GE current liabilities of $1.1 billion and non-current compensation and benefits of $0.8 billion. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

~~Borrowings decreased $3.2 billion (excluding the impact of the Baker Hughes transaction),~~ primarily due to net repayment of debt at GE Capital of $17.6 billion, partially offset by the issuance of long-term debt at GE of $8.6 billion, primarily to fund acquisitions and the effects of currency exchange of $5.9 billion. See Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

~~Liabilities of discontinued operations~~All other assets decreased ~~$3.2~~$2.2 billion, primarily due to the ~~disposition~~adoption of ~~businesses at GE Capital.~~ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory.

FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

LIQUIDITY AND BORROWINGS

We maintain a strong focus on liquidity. At both GE and GE Capital we manage our liquidity to help provide access to sufficient funding to meet our business needs and financial obligations throughout business cycles.

Our liquidity and borrowing plans for GE and GE Capital are established within the context of our ~~annual~~ financial and strategic planning ~~processes. At GE, our liquidity~~processes and ~~funding plans take into account~~consider the liquidity necessary to fund our operating commitments, which include ~~primarily~~ purchase obligations for inventory and equipment, payroll and general expenses (including pension funding). We also ~~take into account~~consider our capital allocation and growth objectives, including paying dividends, repurchasing shares, funding debt maturities and insurance obligations, investing in research and development and acquiring industrial businesses. We define our liquidity risk tolerance under stress based on liquidity sources, and our liquidity position is targeted to meet our obligations under both normal and stressed conditions.

GE cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $13.1 billion at March 31, 2018, including $5.6 billion at BHGE. At GE, we rely primarily on free cash ~~generated through~~flows from our operating ~~activities~~businesses, proceeds from announced dispositions and ~~any dividend payments from GE Capital.~~planned debt issuances. Cash ~~generated from operating activities at GE~~generation can be subject to variability based on many factors, including seasonality, ~~and~~receipt of down payments on large equipment orders, timing of billings on long-term ~~contracts.~~ contracts, the effects of changes in end markets and our ability to execute dispositions. Our focus is on strengthening our cash position, with a balanced capital allocation plan including organic investments that generate strong returns, coupled with a competitive dividend payout ratio. We intend to maintain a disciplined financial policy targeting a strong credit profile.

In 2018, GE expects to incur up to $6.0 billion of incremental long-term debt, primarily to fund the GE Pension Plan. This incremental debt may consist of new unsecured term debt issued in the external debt markets or intercompany arrangements between GE and GE Capital, utilizing GE Capital's excess unsecured term debt. During the first quarter of 2018, GE and GE Capital entered into an intercompany loan for $0.3 billion (utilizing a portion of GE Capital's excess unsecured term debt) to fund its required contribution to the GE Pension Plan in the first quarter of 2018. The loan has a fixed interest rate of 4.56% and a term of 18 years.

Our 2018 capital allocation plan also considers potential funding of Alstom redemption rights related to certain consolidated joint ventures, which Alstom has expressed an intent to exercise. See Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

GE has available a variety of liquidity management tools to fund its operations, including a commercial paper program, ~~as well as~~ bank operating lines and short-term intercompany loans from GE Capital which are typically repaid within the same quarter.

~~We maintain a detailed liquidity policy for~~ At GE Capital, ~~that defines GE Capital's liquidity risk tolerance under stress based~~we mainly rely on ~~its liquidity sources,~~cash and ~~a comprehensive framework for managing liquidity risk~~short-term investments, cash generated from dispositions and cash flows from our businesses to fund our insurance obligations and debt maturities, including ~~metrics to identify~~the current portion of long-term debt of $11.2 billion at March 31, 2018, as well as our operating and ~~monitor liquidity risk and procedures to escalate and address potential issues.~~interest costs.

Based on asset and liability management actions we have taken, GE Capital does not plan to issue any incremental GE Capital senior unsecured term debt until ~~2019.~~2020. GE Capital mainly relies on excess cash positions, cash generated through dispositions, and the cash flow from our Verticals to fund our debt maturities, including the current portion of long-term debt ($15.6 billion at September 30, 2017), and our operating and interest costs. GE Capital's liquidity position is targeted to meet its obligations under both normal and stressed conditions. We expectexpects to maintain an ~~elevated~~adequate liquidity position, primarily as ~~we generate~~a result of cash and short-term investments, cash generated from ~~asset sales, returning to more normalized levels in 2019.~~dispositions and cash flows from our businesses. During this period, we expect to continue to have excess interest costs as asset sales have outpaced our debt maturities. ~~While~~Additionally, as previously communicated, GE Capital expects to fund approximately $14.5 billion to our insurance subsidiaries over the next seven years, of which $3.5 billion was funded in the first quarter of 2018. These contributions are subject to ongoing monitoring by the Kansas Insurance Department and GE is required to maintain specified capital levels at these insurance subsidiaries under capital maintenance agreements.

As of March 31, 2018, GE Capital maintained liquidity sources of $21.7 billion that consisted of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $19.0 billion, high-quality investments of $2.0 billion and cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $0.6 billion classified within discontinued operations. We also expect to generate incremental cash of approximately $15.0 billion from planned asset reduction actions over the next two years. Additionally, while we maintain ~~elevated~~adequate liquidity levels, we may engage in liability management actions, such as buying back debt, based on market and economic conditions in order to reduce our excess interest costs.

As part of GE’s previously formulated and communicated plan to incur new long-term debt primarily to fund acquisitions and to refinance existing debt, we issued $15.9 billion of long-term debt in 2017. $8.6 billion equivalent of euro debt was issued in the external debt markets, and $7.3 billion was done through two transactions with GE Capital. The $8.6 billion equivalent consists of €1,750 million of 0.375% Notes due 2022, €2,000 million of 0.875% Notes due 2025, €2,250 million of 1.50% Notes due 2029 and €2,000 million of 2.125% Notes due 2037. In lieu of issuing the $7.3 billion of debt externally in the capital markets, GE effected the transactions through GE Capital because GE Capital is holding excess debt as a result of the GE Capital Exit Plan. The debt transactions with GE Capital were priced at markets terms with a weighted average interest rate of 3.5% and a weighted average term of 15 years. To effectuate these transactions, GE and GE Capital entered into intercompany transactions that had the effect of reducing the intercompany payables and receivables given the right of offset between GE and GE Capital by $7.3 billion, as shown in the table below.

In 2015, senior unsecured notes and commercial paper were assumed by GE upon its merger with GE Capital resulting in an intercompany receivable and payable between GE and GE Capital. On the GE Statement of Financial Position, assumed debt is presented within borrowings with an offsetting receivable from GE Capital and on the GE Capital Statement of Financial Position, this is reflected as an intercompany payable to GE within borrowings. ~~As of September 30, 2017,~~At March 31, 2018, the ~~amount of~~outstanding assumed ~~outstanding~~ debt was ~~$49.9~~$43.5 billion (see Note 1011 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information).

Under the Internal Revenue Code, these loans are permitted to be outstanding for 30 days or less and the total of all such loans is required to be outstanding for less than 60 days during the year.

We securitize financial assets as an alternative source of funding. During 2018, we completed $0.1 billion of non-recourse issuances and $0.7 billion of non-recourse borrowings matured. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, consolidated non-recourse securitization borrowings were ~~$0.7~~$1.3 billion.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

As a result of our global operations, we generate and incur a significant portion of our revenues and expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Such principal currencies are euro, the pound sterling, the Brazilian real and the Chinese renminbi. The results of operating entities reported in currencies other than U.S. dollar are translated to the U.S. dollar at the applicable exchange rate for inclusion in the financial statements. We use a number of techniques to manage the effects of currency exchange, including selective borrowings in local currencies and selective hedging of significant cross-currency transactions. The foreign currency effect arising from operating activities outside of the U.S., including the remeasurement of derivatives, can result in significant transactional foreign currency fluctuations at points in time, but will generally be offset as the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings. The effects of foreign currency fluctuations, excluding the earnings impact of the underlying hedged item, decreased net earnings ~~by $0.1 billion~~ for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018 by less than $0.1 billion.

As of March 31, 2018, we held the U.S. dollar equivalent of $0.5 billion of cash in Angolan kwanza. As there is no liquid derivatives market for this currency, we have used Angolan kwanza to purchase $0.4 billion equivalent bonds issued by the central bank in Angola (Banco Nacional de Angola) with various maturities through 2020 to mitigate the related currency devaluation exposure risk. The bonds are denominated in Angolan kwanza as U.S. dollar equivalents, so that, upon payment of periodic interest and principal upon maturity, payment is made in Angolan kwanza, equivalent to the respective U.S. dollars at the then-current exchange rate.

~~CONSOLIDATED CASH FLOWS~~

We evaluate our cash ~~flow~~flows performance by reviewing our industrial (non-GE Capital) businesses and GE Capital businesses separately. Cash from operating activities (CFOA) is the principal source of cash generation for our industrial businesses.

All other operating activities reflect cash sources and uses as well as non-cash adjustments to net earnings (loss) including those related to taxes, pensions, restructuring and gains (losses) on principal business dispositions. See Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding All other operating activities and All other investing activities.

~~(in billions)~~

With respect to GE CFOA, we believe that it is useful to supplement our GE Statement of Cash Flows and to examine in a broader context the business activities that provide and require cash.

The most significant source of cash in GE CFOA is customer-related activities, the largest of which is collecting cash resulting from product or services sales. The most significant operating use of cash is to pay our suppliers, employees, tax authorities and others for a wide range of material and services. Dividends from GE Capital represent the distribution of a portion of GE Capital retained earnings, and are distinct from cash from continuing operations within the GE Capital businesses.

~~All other operating activities reflect~~In the following discussion, Net earnings for cash ~~sources~~flows represents the adding together of Net earnings (loss), (Earnings) loss from discontinued operations and ~~uses as well as non-cash adjustments~~(Earnings) loss from continuing operations retained by GE Capital, excluding GE Capital common dividends paid to net income including those related to taxes, interest, pension, contract assets and gains (losses) on principal business dispositions.

2018 – 2017 COMMENTARY

GE cash used for operating activities increased $1.4 billion primarily due to the following:

No common dividends were paid by GE Capital to GE in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared with $2.0 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Cash used for GE CFOA (excluding common dividends received from GE Capital in 2017) amounted to $1.0 and $1.6 billion in 2018 and 2017, respectively, primarily due to the following:

Net earnings for cash flows plus depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment, amortization of intangible assets and deferred income taxes of $1.6 billion in 2018 compared with $0.8 billion in 2017. Net earnings for cash flows included restructuring and other charges and current tax expense of $0.6 billion and $0.5 billion, respectively, in 2018, compared with $1.0 billion and $0.4 billion, respectively, in 2017.

Lower growth in contract and other deferred assets of $0.4 billion in 2018 compared with $1.2 billion in 2017, primarily due to the timing of revenue recognized relative to the timing of billings and collections on our long-term service agreements and the liquidation of deferred inventory, primarily in our Power segment.

An increase in cash used for working capital of $0.3 billion in 2018 compared with 2017. This was primarily due to an increase in cash used for current receivables of $0.3 billion, mainly in our Renewable Energy segment and an increase in cash used for inventories of $0.3 billion, mainly in our Aviation and Oil & Gas segments. These increases in cash used for working capital were partially offset by an increase in cash generated by progress collections of $0.1 billion, driven by our Renewable Energy segment and a decrease in cash used for accounts payable of $0.1 billion.

GE Pension Plan contributions of $0.3 billion in 2018 compared with no such contributions in 2017.

Lower taxes paid of $0.3 billion in 2018 compared with $0.7 billion in 2017.

An increase in net cash used to reduce other liabilities of approximately $0.4 billion.

GE cash used for investing activities decreased $0.3 billion primarily due to the following:

No business acquisitions in 2018, compared with business acquisitions of $1.0 billion in 2017, mainly driven by the acquisition of ServiceMax for $0.9 billion (net of cash acquired).

This decrease in cash used was partially offset by following increases:

Technology investments in our Aviation segment of $0.6 billion in 2018, compared with $0.1 billion in 2017.

Net cash paid for settlements of derivative hedges of $0.2 billion in 2018.

A net decrease in cash used for working capital of $0.1 billion in 2017 compared with 2016. This was primarily due to a reduction in inventory build of $1.1 billion, partially offset by an increase in cash used for accounts payable of $0.9 billion across all businesses.

An increase in contract assets of $4.0 billion in 2017 compared with $3.0 billion in 2016, primarily due to cumulative catch up adjustments driven by lower forecasted cost to complete the contracts as well as increased forecasted revenue on our long-term service agreements and the timing of revenue recognized relative to the timing of billings and collections on both our long-term service agreements and long-term equipment contracts.

~~GE Pension Plan contributions of $1.4 billion in 2017 compared with zero in 2016.~~

~~Lower taxes paid~~borrowings of $1.8 billion in ~~2017~~2018, mainly driven by net repayments of debt of $2.1 billion (including $0.7 billion at BHGE), partially offset by a long-term loan from GE Capital to GE of $0.3 billion, compared with ~~$2.3 billion in 2016.~~

~~See Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding cash sources and uses as well as non-cash adjustments to net income reported as All other operating activities.~~

Business disposition proceeds of $2.9 billion, primarily driven by the sale of our Water business for $2.7 billion (net of cash transferred) in 2017, compared with proceeds of $5.3 billion, primarily driven by the sale of our Appliances business for $4.8 billion and the sale of GE Asset Management for $0.4 billion in 2016.

~~Net settlements of derivative hedges of $1.4 billion in 2017 compared with minimal net settlements in 2016.~~

~~GE cash from financing activities increased $23.9 billion primarily due to the following:~~

~~Net repurchases of GE treasury shares of $2.6 billion and $18.0~~ ~~billion in 2017 and 2016, respectively.~~

INTERCOMPANY TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN GE AND GE CAPITAL

We are repositioning GE to be the world’s best infrastructure and technology company, with a smaller financial services division. Our focus is on driving infrastructure leadership, investing in innovation and achieving a culture of simplification to better serve our customers around the world. Over the last decade, we have made significant strides in transforming our portfolio and focusing on our industrial leadership. We have grown our infrastructure platforms with major portfolio moves, investing in adjacencies and pursuing opportunities that are closely related to our core.

~~In parallel, we have made a concentrated effort to reduce the size of our~~ GE Capital, ~~business and align its growth with Industrial earnings. As a result,~~the financial arm of GE, ~~Capital Verticals are now focused on investing~~provides financial ~~human~~ and intellectual capital to ~~promote growth for our~~GE’s industrial businesses and ~~their~~its customers. GE Capital ~~accomplishes this~~enables GE orders by either providing direct financing for a GE transaction or by bringing market participants together that result in ~~part through related party~~industrial sales. On January 16, 2018, we announced plans to take actions to make GE Capital smaller and more focused, including a substantial reduction in the size of GE Capital's Energy Financial Services and Industrial Finance businesses over the next 24 months. We will retain origination capabilities to support our industrial businesses; however, we will transition to more funding by the capital markets, including export credit agencies and financial institutions. The transactions ~~with~~where GE ~~that~~and GE Capital are directly involved are made on ~~an arms-length basis~~arm's length terms and are reported in the ~~respective~~ GE and GE Capital columns of our ~~financial statements, but are eliminated in deriving our consolidated~~ financial statements. These transactions include, but are not limited to, the following:

GE Capital dividends to GE,

GE Capital working capital solutions to optimize GE cash management,

GE Capital enabled GE industrial orders, including related GE guarantees to GE Capital,

GE Capital financing of GE long-term receivables, and

Aircraft engines, power equipment, renewable energy equipment and healthcare equipment manufactured by GE that are installed on GE Capital investments, including leased equipment.

In addition to the above transactions that primarily enable growth for the GE businesses, there are routine related party transactions, which include, but are not limited to, the following:

Expenses related to parent-subsidiary pension plans,

Buildings and equipment leased between GE and GE Capital, including sale-leaseback transactions,

Information technology (IT) and other services sold to GE Capital by GE,

Settlements of tax liabilities, and

Various investments, loans and allocations of GE corporate overhead costs.

CASH FLOWS

GE did not receive a common share dividend distribution from GE Capital in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and it does not expect to for the foreseeable future. GE Capital paid ~~$4.0 billion and $16.1~~$2.0 billion of common dividends to GE in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.~~March 31, 2017.

These transactions can result in cash generation or cash use in the Statement of Cash Flows. The incremental amount of cash received from sales of receivables in excess of the cash GE would have otherwise collected had these receivables not been sold represents the cash generated or used in the period relating to this activity. The ~~effect~~impact of ~~cash generated in GE CFOA from~~ current receivables sold to GE Capital, including current receivables subsequently sold to third parties, decreased GE’s CFOA by $2.3 billion and ~~$0.2~~$3.3 billion in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~and 2016,~~ respectively.

As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, GE Capital had approximately $~~11.2~~8.7 billion recorded on its balance sheet related to current receivables purchased from GE. Of these amounts, approximately ~~half~~38% had been sold by GE to GE Capital with recourse (i.e., the GE business retains the risk of default). The evaluation of whether recourse transactions qualify for accounting derecognition is based, in part, upon the legal jurisdiction of the sale; as such, the majority of recourse transactions outside the U.S. qualify for sale treatment. ~~Claims~~The effect on GE CFOA of claims by GE Capital on receivables sold with recourse to GE ~~have~~has not been significant for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and ~~2016.~~2017.

In December 2016, GE Capital entered into a Receivables Facility with members of a bank group, designed to provide extra liquidity to GE.

MD&A	FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

In certain circumstances, GE provides customers primarily within our Power, Renewable Energy and Aviation businesses with extended payment terms for the purchase of new equipment, purchases of significant upgrades and for fixed billings within our long-term service contracts. Similar to current receivables, GE may sell these long-term receivables to GE Capital to manage short-term liquidity and fund growth. These transactions are made on arm's length terms and any fair value adjustments, primarily related to time value of money, are recognized within the Industrial business in the period these receivables are sold to GE Capital. GE Capital accretes interest and factoring fee income over the life of the receivables. Factoring fee income is eliminated in our consolidated results. In addition, the long-term portion of any remaining outstanding receivables as of the end of the period are reflected in All other assets within our consolidated Statement of Financial Position. GE Capital had approximately $2.0 billion and $2.1 billion of financing receivables related to GE long-term customer receivables outstanding, net of deferred income of approximately $0.2 and $0.3 billion recorded in its balance sheet at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The effect of cash generated from the sale of these long-term receivables with GE Capital decreased GE's CFOA by an insignificant amount and increased GE's CFOA by $0.1 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

ENABLED ORDERS

Enabled orders represent the act of introducing, elevating and influencing customers and prospects that result in an industrial sale, potentially coupled with programmatic captive financing or driving incremental products or ~~services across the GE Store.~~services. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~and 2016,~~ GE Capital enabled ~~$8.8~~$1.6 billion and ~~$8.2~~$2.2 billion of GE industrial orders, respectively. ~~2017~~2018 orders are primarily with our ~~Power~~Transportation ($~~3.3~~0.5 billion), Renewable Energy ($~~3.3~~0.4 billion), and Healthcare ($~~1.0 billion) and Oil & Gas ($0.7~~0.4 billion) businesses.

AVIATION

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~and 2016,~~ GE Capital acquired 348 aircraft (list price totaling ~~$4.6~~$0.9 billion) and 329 aircraft (list price totaling ~~$4.7~~$1.1 billion), respectively, from third parties that will be leased to others, which are powered by engines that were manufactured by GE Aviation and affiliates. Additionally, GE Capital had ~~$1.5~~$1.1 billion and $1.2 billion of net book value of engines, originally manufactured by GE Aviation and affiliates and subsequently leased back to GE Aviation and affiliates at ~~both September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, ~~2016, respectively.~~

~~POWER, RENEWABLE ENERGY AND AVIATION~~

GE leverages GE Capital for its expertise in structuring long-term financing arrangements with certain Power, Renewable Energy and Aviation customers for the purchase of equipment, upgrades and long-term service contracts. These arrangements are made on an arm’s length basis and any fair value adjustments are recognized within the results of our Power, Renewable Energy and Aviation segments. Any associated deferred income recorded by GE Capital is eliminated in our consolidated results. In relation to these arrangements, GE Capital had approximately $2.3 billion and $1.9 billion of long-term financing receivables outstanding, net of deferred income of approximately $0.3 billion and $0.3 billion reported on its balance sheet at September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively. The effect of cash generated in GE CFOA from long-term financing arrangements with GE Capital increased GE's CFOA by $0.4 billion and $1.0 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

PENSIONS

GE Capital is a member of certain GE Pension Plans. As a result of the GE Capital Exit Plan, GE Capital will have additional funding obligations for these pension plans. These obligations ~~do not relate to the Verticals and~~ are recognized as an expense in GE Capital’s other continuing operations when they become probable and estimable. ~~The~~There was no additional funding obligations recognized by GE Capital ~~were an insignificant amount and $0.3~~for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The additional funding obligation recognized by GE Capital was $0.1 billion for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2017, respectively, and $0.1 billion and $0.4 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.~~

Certain of this additional funding is recorded as a contra pension expense for GE because GE’s related future pension obligations will be paid by GE Capital. For certain other pension plan funding obligations triggered by the GE Capital Exit Plan, GE agreed to assume the funding obligation that would have been triggered by GE Capital at the date of exit from the plan in exchange for an assumption fee that GE recorded as Other income. There was no cash transferred to GE for the assumption of these GE Capital funding obligations for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017. ~~The total cash transferred for similar funding obligations assumed by GE from GE Capital for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were zero and $0.1 billion, respectively.~~

On a consolidated basis, the additional required pension funding and any related assumption fees do not affect current period earnings. Any additional required pension funding will be reflected as a reduction of the pension liability when paid.

GE GUARANTEE OF GE CAPITAL THIRD-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In certain instances, GE provides guarantees to GE Capital transactions with third parties primarily in connection with enabled orders. In order to meet its underwriting criteria, GE Capital may obtain a direct guarantee from GE related to the performance of the third party. GE guarantees can take many forms and may include, but not be limited to, direct performance or payment guarantees, return on investment guarantees, asset value guarantees and loss pool arrangements. As of ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018, GE had outstanding guarantees to GE Capital on ~~$1.5~~$2.1 billion of funded exposure and ~~$1.2~~$0.7 billion of unfunded ~~commitments.~~commitments, which included guarantees issued by industrial businesses. The recorded amount of these contingent liabilities was ~~$0.1~~$0.2 billion as of ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and is dependent upon individual transaction level defaults, losses and/or returns.

GE GUARANTEE OF CERTAIN GE CAPITAL DEBT

GE provides implicit and explicit support to GE Capital through commitments, capital contributions and operating support. As previously discussed, debt assumed by GE from GE Capital in connection with the merger of GE Capital into GE was $~~49.9~~43.5 billion, and GE guaranteed $~~44.5~~41.3 billion of GE Capital debt at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

We utilized significant estimates in the preparation of the ~~third~~first quarter financial statements.

Please refer to the Critical Accounting Estimates section within MD&A and Note 1 ~~Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,~~ to the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K Report filed on February ~~24, 2017,~~23, 2018, for a discussion of our accounting policies and the critical accounting estimates we use to: ~~recognize revenue on long-term product services agreements;~~ assess the recoverability of assets such as financing receivables and goodwill; determine the fair value of financial assets; ~~and~~ determine our provision for income taxes and recoverability of deferred tax ~~assets.~~

~~INSURANCE AND INVESTMENT CONTRACT LIABILITIES~~

Reserves ceded to reinsurers were $2.2 billion and $2.0 billion at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively and are included in the caption “Other receivables” on our Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.benefits.

REVENUE RECOGNITION ON LONG-TERM PRODUCT SERVICES AGREEMENTS

~~Claim reserves amounted to~~On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, ~~$4.9 billion~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers ~~and~~ ~~$4.6 billion of which $3.4 billion and $3.1 billion relates to long-term care insurance contracts~~ as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Claim reserves are established when a claim is incurred or is estimated to have been incurred and represents our best estimate of the ultimate obligations for future claim payments and claim adjustment expenses. Key inputs include actual known facts about the claims, such as the benefits available and cause of disability of the claimant, as well as assumptions derived from our actual historical experience and expected future changes in experience factors. Claim reserves are evaluated periodically for potential changes in loss estimates with the support of qualified actuaries and any changes are recorded in the period in which they are determined.

~~Future policy benefit reserves amounted to $19.2 billion and $18.7 billion~~ ~~of which~~ ~~$9.0 billion~~ ~~and~~ ~~$8.7 billion~~ relates to long-term care insurance contracts at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These reserves represent the present value of such benefits less the present value of future net premiums and are based on actuarial assumptions established at the time the policies were issued or acquired. These assumptions include, but are not limited to interest rates, health care experience (including type and cost of care), ~~mortality,~~ and the ~~length~~related amendments (ASC 606), which supersedes most previous U.S. GAAP revenue guidance. The standard requires us to make certain estimates that affect the amount and timing of ~~time~~revenue recognized in a policy will remain in force. Our annual premium deficiency testing assesses the adequacy of future policy benefit reserves, net of capitalized acquisition costs using current assumptions. As we no longer originate new policies, we perform premium deficiency testing in the aggregate across our run-off insurance products.

~~We have recently experienced elevated claim experience for a portion of our long-term care insurance contracts, which is most pronounced for policyholders with higher attained ages. As a result,~~given period, primarily related to equipment and ~~as described below, we are conducting a comprehensive review of premium deficiency assumptions across all insurance products, including a reassessment of future claim projections for long-term care~~service contracts that ~~will be incorporated within our annual test of future policy benefit reserves for premium deficiencies, which is expected~~are recognized on an overtime basis (refer to ~~be completed in the fourth quarter of 2017.~~

~~A comprehensive review of premium deficiency assumptions is a complex process~~Note 1 and depends on a number of factors, many of which are interdependent and require evaluation individually and in the aggregate across all insurance products. The vast majority of our run-off insurance activities comprises reinsurance from multiple ceding insurance entities with underlying treaties having unique terms and conditions. Premium deficiency testing relies on claim and policy information provided by these ceding entities and considers each of the unique treaties. In order to utilize that information for purposes of completing experience studies covering all key assumptions, we perform detailed procedures to conform and validate the data received, including periodic evaluation of the operating environment at ceding entities. Our long-term care business includes coverage where credible claim experience for higher attained ages is still emerging and to the extent that recent experience deviates from previous expectations, new projections of claim costs extending over the expected life of the policies require development. Significant uncertainties exist in making these best estimate projections for these long-duration insurance contracts that includes consideration of a wide range of possible outcomes as well as actuarial peer reviews before a final determination can be made.

Should the net liability for future policy benefits plus the present value of expected future gross premiums be insufficient to provide for the present value of expected future policy benefits and expenses, we would be required to reduce any remaining capitalized acquisition costs and, to the extent a shortfall still exists, increase our existing future policy benefit reserves. We would record a charge to earnings for any premium deficiencies in the fourth quarter of 2017 upon completion of this review. Based upon the work performed to date and complexity of the review described above, a charge related to a probable deficiency is not reasonably estimable at September 30, 2017. Until the above described review has been completed we have deferred the decision whether GE Capital will pay additional dividends to GE.

~~See~~ Note 119 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our accounting policy for these contracts). The most critical estimates relevant to our revenue accounting are related to our long-term product service agreements as discussed below.

Our revenue recognition on long-term product services agreements requires estimates of both customer payments expected to be received over the contract term as well as the costs expected to be incurred to perform required maintenance services. We routinely review estimates under product services agreements and regularly revise them to adjust for changes in outlook as described below.

We recognize revenue as we perform under these arrangements using an over time accounting model based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. Throughout the life of a contract, this ~~report~~measure of progress captures the nature of the timing and ~~Note~~extent of our underlying performance activities as our stand-ready services often fluctuate between routine inspections and maintenance, unscheduled service events and major overhauls at pre-determined usage intervals.

Customers generally pay us based on the utilization of the asset (per hour of usage for example) or upon the occurrence of a major event within the contract such as an overhaul. As a result, a significant estimate in determining expected revenues of a contract is estimating how customers will utilize their assets over the term of the agreement. Changes in customer utilization can influence the timing and extent of overhauls and other service events over the life of the contract. As a result, the revenue recognized each period is dependent on our estimate of how a customer will utilize their assets over the term of the agreement. We generally use a combination of both historical utilization trends as well as forward-looking information such as market conditions and potential asset retirements in developing our revenue estimates. This estimate of customer utilization will impact both the total contract billings and costs to satisfy our obligation to maintain the equipment. To the extent required, we limit the amount of variable consideration used to estimate our transaction price such that it is improbable that a significant revenue reversal will occur in future periods.

To develop our cost estimates, we consider the timing and extent of future maintenance and overhaul events, including the amount and cost of labor, spare parts and other resources required to perform the services. In developing our cost estimates, we utilize a combination of our historical cost experience and expected cost improvements. Cost improvements are only included in future cost estimates after savings have been observed in actual results or proven effective through an extensive regulatory or engineering approval process.

We regularly assess customer credit risk inherent in the carrying amounts of receivables and contract assets and estimated earnings, including the risk that contractual penalties may not be sufficient to offset our accumulated investment in the event of customer termination. We gain insight into future utilization and cost trends, as well as credit risk, through our knowledge of the installed base of equipment and the close interaction with our customers that comes with supplying critical services and parts over extended periods.

ASU NO. ~~2016-15,~~2016-13, ~~STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS~~FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - CREDIT LOSSES

In ~~August~~June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. ~~2016-15,~~2016-13, ~~Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments~~Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. The ASU introduces a new ~~standard~~accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (CECL), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models in current GAAP, which generally require that ~~cash receipts from payments on~~ a ~~transferor’s beneficial interests in securitized trade receivables should~~loss be ~~classified as cash inflows from investing activities.~~incurred before it is recognized.

ASU NO. 2016-02, LEASES

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The ~~new standard~~ASU establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. Similarly, lessors will be required to classify leases as sales-type, finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition. Classification for both lessees and lessors will be based on an assessment of whether risks and rewards as well as substantive control have been transferred through a lease contract. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. While we continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our ~~ongoing~~consolidated financial ~~reporting,~~statements, we anticipate that the adoption of the ASU may materially affect our Statement of Financial Position.

~~ASU NO. 2014-09,~~ ~~REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS~~

~~BACKGROUND~~

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new comprehensive set of revenue recognition principles (ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) that supersedes most existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition guidance (including ASC 605-35, Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts). The new standard will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We will adopt the standard on January 1, 2018, will apply it retrospectively to all periods presented and will elect the practical expedient for contract modifications. Since the issuance of the new standard by the FASB, we have engaged in a collaborative process with our industry peers and worked with standard setters on important interpretive matters with the objective of ensuring consistency in the application of the standard.

~~TRANSITION METHOD FOR APPLYING THE NEW STANDARD~~

Companies can use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective method to adopt the standard. Under the full retrospective method, all periods presented will be updated upon adoption to conform to the new standard and a cumulative adjustment for effects on periods prior to 2016 will be recorded to retained earnings as of January 1, 2016. Under the modified retrospective approach, prior periods are not updated to be presented on an accounting basis that is consistent with 2018. Rather, a cumulative adjustment for effects of applying the new standard to periods prior to 2018 is recorded to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. Because only 2018 revenues reflect application of the new standard, incremental disclosures are required to present the 2018 revenues under the prior standard.

~~2017 3Q FORM 10-Q~~ 49



~~MD&A~~	~~OTHER ITEMS~~

As noted above, we have elected to apply the full retrospective approach. We chose that approach because we believe that it is the most helpful to our investors. First and foremost, when we adopt the standard in 2018 we will provide investors with a consistent view of historical trends, as 2016 and 2017 will be on a basis consistent with 2018.

~~CHANGE IN TIMING AND PRESENTATION, NO IMPACT TO CASH OR ECONOMICS~~

The new standard requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time based on when control of goods and services transfer to a customer. As a result, we expect significant changes in the presentation of our financial statements, including: (1) timing of revenue recognition, and (2) changes in classification between revenue and costs. The new standard will have no cash impact and, as such, does not affect the economics of our underlying customer contracts. The effect of applying the new guidance to our existing book of contracts will result in lower reported earnings in 2018 (and comparative periods previously reported) and in the early years after adoption. However, we expect to experience an increase in reported earnings, on that existing book of contracts, as they mature. The new standard will provide for a better alignment of cash and earnings for the affected long-term customer contracts and we expect that it will enhance comparability across industry peers.

~~SPECIFIC EFFECT ON GE BUSINESSES~~

~~Power and Aviation Service Agreements -~~ For our long-term product service agreements, primarily in our Power and Aviation businesses, we expect to continue to recognize revenue based on costs incurred plus an estimated margin rate (over time model). However, the new standard provides prescriptive guidance tied to several factors for determining what constitutes the proper scope of a customer contract for accounting purposes. These factors include optional purchases, contract modifications, and termination clauses. For example, under the new standard contract modifications will be accounted for prospectively by recognizing the financial effect of the modification over the remaining life of the contract. Under existing accounting guidance revisions to estimated margin rates resulting from modifications were reflected as cumulative effect adjustments to earnings in the current period.

~~Aviation Commercial Engines -~~ Consistent with industry peers, the financial presentation of our Aviation Commercial engines business will be significantly affected as they will be accounted for as of a point in time, which is a change from our current long-term contract accounting process. Our current process applies contract-specific estimated margin rates, which include the effect of estimated cost improvements, to costs incurred. This change is required because our commercial engine contracts do not transfer control to the customer during the manufacturing process. Each install and spare engine will be accounted for as a separate performance obligation, reflecting the actual price and manufacturing costs of such engines. We expect that the most significant effect of this change will be reflected when we have new engine launches, where the cost of earlier production units is higher than the cost of later production units because of cost improvements.

~~All Other Large Equipment -~~ For the remainder of our equipment businesses, the new revenue standard requires emphasis on transfer of control rather than risks and rewards, which may accelerate timing of revenue recognition versus our current practices. For example, in our Renewable Energy business we wait for risk of loss to be assumed by the customer before recognizing revenue, which generally occurs later than when control is transferred.

~~CURRENT RANGE OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT EFFECT~~

We will adopt the new standard as of January 1, 2018. When we report our 2018 results, the comparative results for 2017 and 2016 will be updated to reflect the application of the requirements of the new standard to these periods. Based on our assessment and best estimates to date, we expect a non-cash charge to our January 1, 2016 retained earnings balance of approximately $4.3 billion. We estimate that the charge will comprise approximately $1.0 billion related to commercial aircraft engines and $3.3 billion related primarily to our services businesses (predominately in Power and Aviation). Beyond those effects, we expect application of the new guidance will result in increases and decreases in revenue within our segments, which will largely offset overall and will be immaterial at a total company level. We estimate that our 2016 restated earnings per share will be lower by approximately $0.13, driven primarily by the required changes in accounting for long-term product service arrangements as described above. The expected effect to 2016 earnings per share reflects an increase from the previously reported estimate of approximately $0.10 due to further refinements in the application of our technical interpretations and our detailed assessments at a contract level, which is a complex process for our long-term contracts. In addition, the impact on 2017 will also be a decrease to earnings; however, we are unable to complete that calculation until we finalize our 2017 results. Upon adoption in 2018, our books and records will only reflect the results as required under the new standard limiting our ability to estimate the effect of the standard on our earnings. Given the inherent difficulty in this ongoing estimation of the effect of the standard on any future periods, we do not plan to continue to assess the effect on 2018.

To summarize, we will adopt the new standard in 2018, at which time we will update prior periods to be presented on a consistent basis. As discussed above, we anticipate a dilutive effect of the new standard in the year of adoption consistent with the effect to the restated 2016 and 2017 results and the effect will be less dilutive for years after initial adoption. However, this expectation is based on many variables, including underlying business performance, which are subject to change, making the effect of the standard on future periods difficult to estimate. Importantly, application of the new guidance has no effect on the cash we expect to receive nor the economics of these contracts. Rather, it will simply more closely align revenue with cash, which we believe will be helpful to our investors.

~~VENEZUELA~~

Although we continue to experience delays in collecting payments on our receivables from our primary customer in Venezuela, our outstanding receivables are not disputed, and we continue to believe that our carrying value of these receivables are recoverable. In assessing the recoverability of these receivables, we considered our collection experience with this customer. To date we have had no material write-offs related to this customer and have collected approximately $67 million in 2017 and $103 million in 2016. In addition, we consider: the continued importance to the Venezuelan economy of oil production; our strategic relationship with this customer; our current activity levels and our current intention to continue to provide services to this customer; the impact of cross-default provisions within the loan agreements with the customer; and an evaluation of this customer’s financial solvency. We continue to actively manage our relationship with this customer, with ongoing dialogue between key executives of both companies.

As of September 30, 2017, our net exposure to this customer is approximately $260 million. The primary component of this exposure is in GE Capital, which has outstanding financing receivables with a gross value of $210 million and a carrying value of $162 million at September 30, 2017. GE has guaranteed the collectability of these receivables to GE Capital. This exposure also includes approximately $60 million of on-hand inventory that we may not be able to redeploy to other customers should the contracts with this customer be terminated unexpectedly, and net trade receivables of approximately $40 million ($266 million gross value). In 2015 and 2016, we exchanged $257 million and $194 million, respectively, of customer accounts receivable for interest bearing promissory notes with a par value of the same amount. As part of these exchanges, GE recognized a pre-tax loss of $135 million to recognize the notes at fair value. Through the second quarter of 2017, GE recorded approximately $40 million of interest and discount accretion on these loans as no payments were past due and these financing receivables are cross-defaulted with other outstanding customer debt. At September 30, 2017 payments of $52 million were past due and while the majority of these payments were received subsequent to the end of the quarter, due to the difficulties in receiving payment GE placed these loans on nonaccrual status and performed an impairment review of these loans, which supported the carrying value at September 30, 2017.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, GE recorded a bad debt reserve and receivables write offs on other customer receivables of $62 million and an impairment of two buildings of $26 million.

We believe our collectability assumptions to be reasonable according to the current facts and circumstances and they are reviewed on a quarterly basis. However, differences in actual experience or changes in facts and circumstances may materially affect our financial position or results of operations. Our assumptions and related judgments are sensitive to the political and economic conditions in Venezuela. If conditions in Venezuela worsen or if low commodity prices persist for an extended period, we may be required to record adjustments to our receivables balance. Our financial results can be affected, positively or negatively, by changes in our assessment of the collectability of these trade receivables.

Organic revenue growth* measures revenue growth excluding the effects of acquisitions, business dispositions and currency exchange rates. We believe that this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and currency exchange, which activities are subject to volatility and can obscure underlying trends. We also believe that presenting organic revenue growth* separately for our industrial businesses provides management and investors with useful information about the trends of our industrial businesses and enables a more direct comparison to other non-financial businesses and companies. Management recognizes that the term "organic revenue growth" may be interpreted differently by other companies and under different circumstances. Although this may have an effect on comparability of absolute percentage growth from company to company, we believe that these measures are useful in assessing trends of the respective businesses or companies and may therefore be a useful tool in assessing period-to-period performance trends.

The Baker Hughes acquisition is represented on a pro-forma basis, which means we calculated our structural costs by including legacy Baker Hughes results for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
We believe that GE Industrial structural costs* are a meaningful measure as they are broader than selling, general and administrative costs and represent the total structural costs in the industrial segments and Corporate that generally do not vary with volume.

We also believe that the variability in the revenue of our Power and Oil & Gas businesses may obscure underlying trends of our other industrial businesses. As a result, we have also presented our organic revenue growth measure excluding the revenues of our Power and Oil & Gas businesses.

(a) The tax effect on non-operating benefit costs was calculated using a 21% U.S. federal statutory tax rate, based on its applicability to such cost. (b) Earnings-per-share amounts are computed independently. As a result, the sum of per-share amounts may not equal the total.
Adjusted earnings (loss) and EPS* excludes non-operating benefit costs, gains, and restructuring and other items, after tax. The service cost of our pension and other benefit plans are included in adjusted earnings, which represents the ongoing cost of providing pension benefits to our employees. The components of non-operating benefit costs are mainly driven by capital allocation decisions and market performance, and we manage these separately from the operational performance of our businesses. Gains and restructuring and other items are impacted by the timing and magnitude of gains associated with dispositions, and the timing and magnitude of costs associated with restructuring activities. We believe that the retained costs in Adjusted earnings and EPS* provides management and investors a useful measure to evaluate the performance of the total company, and increases period-to-period comparability. We also use Adjusted EPS* as a performance metric at the company level for our annual executive incentive plan for 2018. We believe that presenting Adjusted Industrial earnings and EPS* separately for our financial services businesses also provides management and investors with useful information about the relative size of our industrial and financial services businesses in relation to the total company.

We have provided the operating and non-operating components of cost for our principal pension plans. Operating pension cost comprise the service cost of benefits earned, prior service cost amortization and curtailment loss (gain) for our principal pension plans. Non-operating pension cost comprise the expected return on plan assets, interest cost on benefit obligations and net actuarial loss amortization for our principal pension plans. We believe that the operating components of pension cost better reflects the ongoing service-related cost of providing pension benefits to our employees. We believe that the operating and non-operating components of cost for our principal pension plans, considered along with the corresponding GAAP measure, provide management and investors with additional information for comparison of our pension plan cost and operating results with the pension plan cost and operating results of other companies.

Operating corporate costs exclude non-service-related pension costs of our principal pension plans, which comprise interest costs, expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial gains/losses. Service cost, prior service cost and curtailment loss components of our principal pension plans are included in operating corporate costs. We believe that these components of pension cost better reflect the ongoing service-related costs of providing pension benefits to our employees. Accordingly, we believe that our measure of operating corporate costs provides management and investors with a useful measure of the operational costs incurred outside of our businesses. We believe that this measure, considered along with the corresponding GAAP measure, provides management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating corporate costs to the operating corporate costs of other companies.

We also believe that adjusting operating corporate costs to exclude the effects of items that are not closely associated with ongoing corporate operations, such as earnings of previously divested businesses, gains and losses on disposed and held for sale businesses, and restructuring and other charges, provides management and investors with a meaningful measure that increases the period-to-period comparability of our ongoing corporate costs.

We believe that Adjusted GE Industrial operating profit* and operating profit margin* adjusted for these items are meaningful measures because they increase the comparability of period-to-period results.

We believe that the GE effective tax rate is best analyzed in relation to GE earnings before income taxes excluding the GE Capital net earnings from continuing operations, as GE tax expense does not include taxes on GE Capital earnings. Management believes that in addition to the Consolidated and GE Capital tax rates shown in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, this supplemental measure provides investors with useful information as it presents the GE effective tax rate that can be used in comparing the GE results to other non-financial services businesses.

~~(b)~~	~~Earnings-per-share amounts are computed independently. As a result, the sum of per-share amounts may not equal the total.~~

Operating earnings (loss) excludes non-service related pension cost of our principal pension plans, comprising interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial gains/losses. The service cost, prior service cost and curtailment loss components of our principal pension plans are included in operating earnings. We believe that these components of pension cost better reflect the ongoing service-related cost of providing pension benefits to our employees. As such, we believe that our measure of operating earnings (loss) provides management and investors with a useful measure of the operational results of our business. Other components of GAAP pension cost are mainly driven by capital allocation decisions and market performance, and we manage these separately from the operational performance of our businesses. Neither GAAP nor operating pension cost are necessarily indicative of the current or future cash flow requirements related to our pension plans. We believe that this measure, considered along with the corresponding GAAP measure, provides management and investors with additional information for comparison of our operating results to the operating results of other companies. We also believe that presenting operating earnings separately for our industrial businesses provides management and investors with useful information about the relative size of our industrial and financial services businesses in relation to the total company.

In 2018, GE transitioned from reporting an Adjusted GE Industrial CFOA metric to measuring itself on a GE Industrial Free Cash Flows basis*. This metric includes GE CFOA plus investments in property, plant and equipment and additions to internal-use software; this metric excludes any dividends received from GE Capital and any cash received from dispositions of property, plant, and equipment and internal-use software.

We believe that investors may also find it useful to compare GE’s Industrial free cash flow performance without the effects of cash used for taxes related to business sales and contributions to the GE Pension Plan. We believe that this measure will better allow management and investors to evaluate the capacity of our industrial operations to generate free cash flows. In addition, we report Adjusted GE Industrial Free Cash Flows* in order to provide a more fair representation of the cash that we are entitled to utilize in a given period. We also use Adjusted GE Industrial Free Cash Flows* as a performance metric at the company-wide level for our annual executive incentive plan for 2018.

Management recognizes that the term free cash flow may be interpreted differently by other companies and under different circumstances. Although this may have an effect on comparability of absolute percentage growth from company to company, we believe that these measures are useful in assessing trends of the respective businesses or companies and may therefore be a useful tool in assessing period-to-period performance trends.

U

We define “Industrial CFOA” as GE’s cash from operating activities (continuing operations) less the amount of dividends received by GE from GE Capital. This reflects the effects of intercompany transactions, which include, but are not limited to, the following: GE Capital working capital solutions to optimize GE cash management; GE Capital enabled GE industrial orders; aircraft engines, power equipment, renewable energy equipment and healthcare equipment manufactured by GE that are installed on GE Capital investments, including leased equipment; expenses related to parent-subsidiary pension plans; buildings and equipment leased between GE and GE Capital, including sale-leaseback transactions; information technology (IT) and other services sold to GE Capital by GE; and various investments, loans and allocations of GE corporate overhead costs.

We believe that investors may find it useful to compare GE's operating cash flows without the effect of GE Capital dividends, since these dividends are not representative of the operating cash flows of our industrial businesses and can vary from period-to-period based upon the results of the financial services businesses. We also believe that investors may find it useful to compare Industrial CFOA excluding the effects of deal taxes paid related to the 2016 Appliances sale, the 2017 Baker Hughes transaction and contributions to our GE Pension Plan. Management recognizes that these measures may not be comparable to cash flow results of companies which contain both industrial and financial services businesses, but believes that this comparison is aided by the provision of additional information about the amounts of dividends paid by our financial services business and the separate presentation in our financial statements of the GE Capital cash flows. We believe that our measure of Industrial CFOA and Industrial CFOA excluding deal-related taxes and GE Pension Plan contributions provides management and investors with useful measures to compare the capacity of our industrial operations to generate operating cash flow with the operating cash flow of other non-financial businesses and companies and as such provides useful measures to supplement the reported GAAP CFOA measure.

Under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and concluded that (i) our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, and (ii) other than as explained below, there have been no ~~change~~changes in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, ~~such~~its internal control over financial reporting.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted the new revenue guidance under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the full retrospective method of adoption. The adoption of this guidance required the implementation of new accounting policies and processes, including enhancements to our information systems, which changed the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting for revenue recognition and related disclosures for both our recast historical financial statements and current period reporting.

The TMI complaint assertsasserting claims on approximately $800 million of mortgage loans, and alleges losses on these loans in excess of ~~approximately~~ $425 million. ~~In September 2016, WMC and Deutsche Bank agreed to settle all claims arising out of the four securitizations at issue~~Trial in the Connecticut lawsuits, subject to judicial approvals. In October 2016, Deutsche Bank filed petitions for instruction in California state court seeking judicial instructions that Deutsche Bank’s entry into the settlement agreements was a reasonable exercise of its discretion and approving the distribution of settlement proceeds pursuant to the terms of each trust’s governing documents. No bondholder in any of these securitizations has objected to the proposed settlements. On July 17, 2017, the court entered a judgment and order granting Deutsche Bank’s petitions.

In September 2016, WMC and Deutsche Bank agreed to settle all claims arising out of the two securitizations at issue in this lawsuit, subject to judicial approvals. In October 2016, Deutsche Bank filed petitions for instruction in California state court seeking judicial instructions that Deutsche Bank’s entry into the settlement agreements was a reasonable exercise of its discretion and approving the distribution of settlement proceeds pursuant to the terms of each trust’s governing documents.

Morgan Mortgage Acquisition Corporation and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. BNY asserts claims on approximately $1,300 million of mortgage loans, and seeks to recover damages in excess of $650 million. In the second quarter, WMC and J.P. Morgan reached an agreement with the securitization trustee to settle this case, subject to court approval, and the trustee filed an action in Minnesota state court seeking such approval on July 11, 2017. The court held an initial hearing in this matter on September 11, 2017, at which no bondholder objected to the settlement, and entered an order approving the settlement on October 4, 2017. With this settlement now final, we expect the underlying lawsuit will be dismissed in the fourth quarter. The third case(JPMAC-2) was initiated by BNY Mellon (BNY) in November 2013 and names as defendants WMC, J.P. Morgan Mortgage Acquisition Corporation and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. In this case, BNY asserts claims on approximately $1,300 million of mortgage loans, and seeks to recover damages in excess of $600 million. On September 18, 2015, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss this case on statute of limitations grounds, and the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal onin October ~~21,~~ 2015. OnIn May ~~11,~~ 2017, the intermediate appellate court affirmed the dismissal of WMC, and the plaintiff is seeking leave to appeal this decision to the New York Court of Appeals. The ~~fourth~~third case (JPMAC-3) was filed in October 2014 and names as defendants WMC, J.P. Morgan Mortgage Acquisition Corporation and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The plaintiff, BNY, asserts claims on approximately $959 million of mortgage loans and seeks to recover damages in excess of $475 million. OnIn September 7, 2016, the court granted WMC’s motion to dismiss this case on statute of limitations grounds, and an appeal from this decision is pending in the intermediate appellate court. ~~The latter two cases have been stayed pending the outcome of ongoing settlement negotiations.~~

~~LEGAL PROCEEDINGS~~

At September 30, 2017, one case was pending against WMC in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case was initiated by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) inIn the fourth quarter ~~2012. In~~of 2017, JPMorgan and WMC reached a settlement with the ~~second quarter 2013, Deutsche Bank,~~trustee in ~~its role as securitization trustee, intervened as a plaintiff~~JPMAC-2 and ~~filed a complaint relating~~JPMAC-3, subject to approximately $1,300 million of loans and alleging losses in excess of approximately $100 million. In December 2013, the District Court issued an order denying WMC’s motion to dismiss but, on its own motion, ordered re-briefing on several issues raised by WMC’s motion to dismiss in February 2015. On July 10, 2015, the District Court entered an order dismissing the lawsuit as time-barred under the applicable statute of limitations. Deutsche Bank filed a notice of appeal from this order of dismissal on August 13, 2015,court approval, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit heard oral argument on June 10, 2016. In September 2016, WMC and Deutsche Bank agreed to settle all claims arising out of the securitization at issuetrustees filed actions in ~~this lawsuit, subject to judicial approval. In October 2016, Deutsche Bank filed a petition for instruction in California~~Minnesota state court seeking ~~judicial instructions that Deutsche Bank’s entry into~~such approval. The court approved both settlements in the settlement agreement was a reasonable exercise of its discretion and approving the distribution of settlement proceeds pursuant to the terms of the trust’s governing documents. No bondholder in this securitization has objected to the proposed settlement. On July 17, 2017, the court entered a judgment and order granting Deutsche Bank’s petition. The period to file an appeal expired October 9, 2017,first quarter, and the ~~underlying~~JPMAC-3 lawsuit was dismissed on ~~October 16, 2017.~~April 17, 2018. The appeal period from the approval order in JPMAC-2 will expire on May 26, 2018, and the JPMAC-2 lawsuit remains stayed pending the final outcome of this proceeding.

The amounts of the claims at issue in these pending cases (discussed above) reflect the purchase price or unpaid principal balances of the mortgage loans at issue at the time of purchase and do not give effect to pay downs, accrued interest or fees, or potential recoveries based upon the underlying collateral. All of the mortgage loans involved in these lawsuits are included in WMC’s reported claims at ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. See Note 1819 to the consolidated financial statements for ~~additional~~further information.

On January 23, 2017, the ResCap Liquidating Trust, as successor to Residential Funding Company, LLC (RFC), filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages against WMC in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota arising from alleged breaches in representations and warranties made by WMC in connection with the sale of approximately $840 million in loans to RFC over a period of time preceding RFC’s filing for bankruptcy protection in May 2012. On September 27, 2017, the parties entered into a settlement agreement, and the lawsuit was dismissed October 8, 2017.

In December 2015, we learned that, as part of continuing industry-wide investigation of subprime mortgages, the Civil Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is investigating potential violations of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) by WMC and its affiliates arising out of the origination, purchase or sale of residential mortgage loans between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2007. The Justice Department subsequently issued subpoenas to WMC and GE Capital, and we are cooperating with the Justice Department’s investigation, including providing documents and witnesses for interviews. Following DOJ's assertion that WMC and GE Capital violated FIRREA in connection with WMC’s origination and sale of subprime mortgage loans in 2006 and 2007, WMC and GE Capital are exploring whether an acceptable settlement of this matter can be reached. In the event that an acceptable settlement cannot be reached, we believe DOJ would initiate legal proceedings against WMC and GE Capital. WMC and GE Capital believe they would have defenses to any such lawsuit.

Alstom legacy matters. In connection with our acquisition of Alstom’s Thermal, Renewables and Grid businesses in November 2015, we are subject to legacy legal proceedings and legal compliance risks that relate to claimed anti-competitive conduct or improper payments by Alstom in the pre-acquisition period. See Note 1819 to the consolidated financial statements for ~~additional~~further information.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

EC merger notification objections. In July 2017, the European Commission (EC) issued a statement of objections with its preliminary conclusion that GE provided incorrect or misleading information about its research and development activities regarding high-power offshore wind turbines during the EC’s review of GE’s planned acquisition of LM Wind. We filed a reply in April 2018 setting forth our position on the EC's statement of objections, and after consideration of the reply we anticipate that the EC will issue a decision that we could appeal to the General Court of the European Union. If the EC concludes that GE’s alleged violation of the merger notification rules was intentional or negligent, it could impose a fine of up to 1% of GE’s annual revenues.

Shareholder lawsuits.Since November 2017, several putative class actions under the federal securities laws have been filed against GE and certain affiliated individuals. Those actions have been consolidated into a single action currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Hachem v. GE et al). In January 2018, the court appointed the Arkansas Teachers Retirement System (ATRS) as Lead Plaintiff and Labaton Sucharow LLP as Lead Counsel for the consolidated shareholder actions. In March 2018, ATRS filed a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint naming as defendants GE, Jeffrey R. Immelt, Jeffrey S. Bornstein, John L. Flannery, Jamie S. Miller and Keith S. Sherin. It alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 related to insurance reserves and accounting for long-term service agreements and seeks damages on behalf of shareowners who acquired GE stock between January 23, 2015 and January 23, 2018.

On February 16, 2018, another putative class action (the Cleveland Bakers and Teamsters Pension Fund (CBTPF) case) was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The CBTPF case names as defendants GE, Jeffrey R. Immelt, Jeffrey S. Bornstein, John L. Flannery and Jamie S. Miller and makes similar allegations as those in the ATRS case. The CBTPF complaint seeks damages on behalf of shareowners who acquired GE stock between February 26, 2013 and January 24, 2018.

On April 12, 2018, in response to a motion filed by counsel for CBTPF, the court vacated its January 19, 2018 order appointing ATRS as Lead Plaintiff and Labaton Sucharow LLP as Lead Counsel and set a new deadline of May 4, 2018 for putative class members to file motions seeking appointment as lead plaintiff.

Since February 2018, four shareholder derivative lawsuits have also been filed against current and former GE executive officers and members of GE’s Board of Directors and GE (as nominal defendant). Two of the lawsuits (the Gammel case and the Lasker case) were filed in New York state court, one lawsuit (the Bennett case) was filed in Massachusetts state court and one lawsuit (the Raul case) was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuits allege breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment from 2016 to the present. The allegations relate to substantially the same facts as those underlying the securities class actions described above, as well as the oversight of past GE practices regarding the use of its corporate aircraft. The Bennett complaint also includes a claim for professional negligence and accounting malpractice against GE’s auditor, KPMG. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and improvements in GE’s corporate governance and internal procedures.

These cases are at an early stage; we believe we have defenses to the claims and will respond accordingly.

SEC investigation.In late November 2017, staff of the Boston office of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) notified us that they are conducting an investigation of GE’s revenue recognition practices and internal controls over financial reporting related to long-term service agreements. Following our investor update on January 16, 2018 about the increase in future policy benefit reserves for GE Capital’s run-off insurance operations, as discussed in the Critical Accounting Estimates section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, the SEC staff expanded the scope of its investigation to encompass the reserve increase and the process leading to the reserve increase. We are providing documents and other information requested by the SEC staff, and we are cooperating with their ongoing investigation.

GE Retirement Savings Plan class ~~action.~~actions. On September 27, 2017, three individual plaintiffs filed a putative class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California ~~against GE, trustees~~with claims regarding the oversight of GE’s 401(k) plan (the GE RSP). From October 30 to November 15, 2017, three similar class action suits were filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. All four actions have been consolidated into a single action in the District of Massachusetts. The consolidated complaint names as defendants GE, GE Asset Management, current and ~~other individual defendants yet to be named.~~former GE and GE Asset Management employees who served on fiduciary bodies responsible for overseeing the GE RSP during the class period and current and former members of GE's Board of Directors. Like ~~a growing number of~~ similar lawsuits that have been brought against other companies in recent years, ~~the suit~~this action alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) in their oversight of the GE RSP, ~~including~~principally by ~~selecting~~retaining five proprietary funds that plaintiffs allege were underperforming ~~proprietary mutual funds~~ as investment options for plan ~~participants.~~participants and charging higher management fees than some alternative funds. The plaintiffs ~~purporting to act~~seek unspecified damages on behalf of a class of GE RSP participants and beneficiaries from October 30, 2011 through ~~June 30, 2016, seek damages~~the date of ~~$700 million,~~any judgment, but we believe we have defenses to the claims and will respond accordingly.

Environmental matters. The Company is reporting the following matter in compliance with SEC requirements to disclose environmental proceedings where the government is a party and that potentially involve monetary sanctions of $100,000 or greater. As previously reported, in January 2018, Kern County California issued an administrative enforcement order with a proposed penalty of $130,000 for alleged violations of process safety management regulations at a manufacturing facility in Taft, California that is indirectly owned by Baker Hughes, a GE company. The matter was resolved in March 2018 with the payment of a penalty of $80,000 pursuant to a consent decree.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of General Electric Company (the Company) and all companies that we directly or indirectly control, either through majority ownership or otherwise. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2016~~2017 that discusses our consolidation and financial statement presentation. As used in this report on Form 10-Q (Report), “GE” represents the adding together of all affiliated companies except GE Capital (GE Capital or Financial Services), whose continuing operations are presented on a one-line basis; GE Capital consists of ~~General~~GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC (GECGH) and all of its affiliates; and “Consolidated” represents the adding together of GE and GE Capital with the effects of transactions between the two eliminated. ~~Unless otherwise indicated, we refer to the caption revenues and other income simply as “revenues” throughout this Form 10-Q.~~

We have reclassified certain prior-period amounts to conform to the current-period presentation. Certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations.

INTERIM PERIOD PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited. These statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that we considered necessary to present a fair statement of our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The results reported in these consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2016.~~2017.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Please refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements of our ~~2016~~Annual Report on Form 10-K ~~Report~~for the year ended December 31, 2017 for the discussion of our significant accounting ~~policies.~~policies as well as the additional revenue accounting policy information provided in Note 9, reflective of our adoption of ASC 606.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and the related amendments (ASC 606), which supersedes most previous U.S. GAAP revenue guidance. We elected to adopt the new standard on a retrospective basis to ensure a consistent basis of presentation within our consolidated financial statements for all periods reported. In addition, we elected the practical expedient for contract modifications, which essentially means that the terms of the contract that existed at the beginning of the earliest period presented can be assumed to have been in place since the inception of the contract (i.e., not practical to separately evaluate the effects of all prior contract modifications).

ASC 606 requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. As a result of the adoption of the standard, we recorded significant changes in the timing of revenue recognition and in the classification between revenues and costs. The financial statement effect of the adoption was a decrease to our previously reported retained earnings as of January 1, 2016 of $4,240 million and a decrease to our previously reported revenues and earnings (loss) from continuing operations of $2,224 million and $2,668 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2017 and $220 million and $1,182 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2016. The effect on our statement of financial position was principally comprised of changes to our contract assets, inventories, deferred taxes, deferred income and progress collections balances resulting in an $8,317 million decrease to previously reported total assets as of December 31, 2017.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As discussed in prior filings, some of the impacts of adopting the ASC 606 are:

Long-Term Service Agreements - For our long-term service agreements, we will continue to recognize revenue over time using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. We will also continue to record cumulative effect adjustments resulting from changes to our estimated contract billings or costs (excluding those resulting from contract modifications as discussed below). Our accounting will be impacted by various changes in the new revenue standard including (1) accounting for contract modifications and their related impacts and (2) changes in the accounting scope and term of our contracts.

Modifications - Under the new revenue standard, contract modifications will generally be accounted for as if we entered into a new contract, resulting in prospective recognition of changes to our estimates of contract billings and costs. That is, cumulative effect adjustments will generally no longer be recognized in the period that modifications occur.

There was limited guidance for accounting for contract modifications under prior U.S. GAAP. As a result, our previous method of accounting for contract modifications was developed with the objective of accounting for the nature of the contract modifications. Generally, contract modifications were accounted for as cumulative effect adjustments, which reflected an update to the contract margin for the impact of the modification (i.e., changes to estimates of future contract billings and costs); however, modifications that substantially changed the economics of the arrangement were effectively accounted for as a new contract.

Scope and term - The new revenue standard provides more prescriptive guidance on identifying the elements of long-term service type contracts that should be accounted for as separate performance obligations. Application of this guidance, which focuses on understanding the nature of the arrangement, including our customers' discretion in purchasing decisions, has resulted in changes to the scope of elements included in our accounting model for long-term service agreements. For example, significant equipment upgrades offered as part of our long-term service agreements will generally be accounted for as separate performance obligations under the new revenue standard.

Also, the term of our contracts is now defined as the shorter of the stated term or the term not subject to unilateral termination. Over this contract term, we estimate our revenues and related costs, including estimates of fixed and variable payments related to asset utilization and related costs to fulfill our performance obligations. Historically, our accounting for long-term contracts did not reflect an expectation that a contract would be terminated prior to the stated term, particularly when the probability of termination was considered remote. Under prior U.S. GAAP, while termination rights were considered, more emphasis was placed on more likely outcomes (i.e., use of best estimates). For example, we used historical experience with similar types of contracts as well as other evidence (e.g., customer intent, economic compulsion and future plans for operating the asset) to determine the contract term for application of our accounting model.

These changes to our long-term service agreement accounting have significantly impacted all of our industrial businesses except for Renewable Energy, Healthcare, and Lighting and were some of the drivers in the reduction of the related contract asset balance of $8,255 million as of December 31, 2017. While these contract asset balances have been reduced due to the accounting changes, the economics and cash impact of these contracts remain unchanged.

Aviation Commercial Engines - For Aviation Commercial engines our previous method applied contract-specific estimated margin rates, which included the effect of estimated cost improvements over time, to costs incurred to determine the amount of revenue that should be recognized. The new revenue standard will result in a significant change from our previous long-term contract accounting model. While we will continue to recognize revenue at delivery, each engine is now accounted for as a separate performance obligation, reflecting the contractually stated price and manufacturing cost of each engine. The most significant effect of this change is on our new engine launches, where the cost of earlier production units is higher than the cost of later production units driven by expected cost improvements over the life of the engine program, which will generally result in lower earnings or increased losses on our early program engine deliveries to our airframer customers. The effect of this change reduced the related contract asset balance of $1,755 million as of December 31, 2017.

All Other Large Equipment - For the remainder of our equipment businesses, the new revenue standard’s emphasis on transfer of control rather than risks and rewards has resulted in an accelerated timing of revenue recognition versus our previous accounting for certain products. While this change impacts all our businesses, our Renewable Energy business was most significantly impacted on a year over year basis with certain of their products recognized at an earlier point in time compared to historical standards. Consistent with our industry peers, certain of our businesses’ products have transitioned either to a point in time or over time recognition based on the nature of the arrangement. This change in timing of revenue had an effect on inventory, contract assets and progress collections to reflect the transfer of control at an earlier point in time.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU ~~2015-11,~~No. 2017-07, ~~Simplifying~~Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the ~~Measurement~~Presentation of ~~Inventory~~Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost,. The ASU requires the service cost component of the net periodic costs for pension and postretirement plans to be presented in the same line item in the statement of earnings as other employee-related compensation costs. The non-service related costs are now required to be presented separately from the service cost component. This change to the income statement has been reflected on a retrospective basis and had no effect on continuing or net income. The new standard also added guidance requiring entities to exclude these non-service related costs from capitalization in inventory or other internally-developed assets on a prospective basis, which ~~was intended~~is not expected to have a significant effect.

On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. The ASU requires the changes in the total of cash and restricted cash to be presented in the statement of cash flows. In addition, when cash and restricted cash are presented on separate lines on the balance sheet, an entity is required to reconcile the totals in the statement of cash flows to the related line items in the balance sheet. While not a direct effect of the adoption of the standard, to simplify the ~~subsequent~~reconciliation of the statement of cash flows to the cash balances presented in our statement of financial position, we have elected to present cash and restricted cash as a single line on the balance sheet, which resulted in an increase of $668 million and $654 million to our previously reported December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 cash balances, respectively. The change to our cash balances and cash flows has been reflected on a retrospective basis for all periods presented.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory. The ASU eliminates the deferral of the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers other than inventory and was required to be adopted on a modified retrospective basis. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized as they are eliminated in consolidation. This change to our income tax provision has been reflected as a $464 million cumulative catch up adjustment to increase retained earnings as of January 1, 2018 and is not reflected in periods prior to this date.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The ASU is required to be reflected on a retrospective basis and provides guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments, including requiring cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs be classified as financing activities and payments from a beneficial interest in securitization transactions be classified as investing activities. As part of the adoption, we will reclassify $553 million of cash receipts from our beneficial interest in securitized trade receivables within our consolidated statement of cash flows from cash inflows from operating activities to cash inflows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 (no effect to periods prior to 2017). The adoption of the ASU did not have a significant effect on our GE Industrial cash flows.

On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU provides guidance related to the recognition and measurement of ~~inventory held by~~financial assets and financial liabilities with changes primarily affecting equity investments and disclosure of financial instruments. Under the new guidance, equity investments with readily determinable fair value, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The adoption had an ~~entity not~~insignificant impact to retained earnings and other comprehensive income.

Effective January 1, 2018, we voluntarily changed the cost method of the GE U.S. inventories that were previously measured ~~using~~on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) ~~or retail inventory method. The amendments eliminated~~basis to first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. We believe the ~~requirement that entities consider~~FIFO method is a preferable measure for our inventories as it is expected to better reflect the ~~replacement cost~~current value of inventory reported in the consolidated statement of financial position, improve the matching of costs of goods sold with related revenue, and provide for greater consistency and uniformity across our operations with respect to the method of inventory valuation. While this change will also require us to make a conforming change for U.S. income tax purposes, all existing GE businesses previously using LIFO are expected to be in a deflationary cost environment due to the manufacturing life cycle of the products and continuous reduction in the manufacturing costs due to better efficiencies, which would significantly decrease the tax benefit that LIFO would otherwise provide. Prior to the change and as reported in our 2017 10-K, LIFO was used for approximately 32% of GE inventories as of December 31, 2017.

As required by U.S. GAAP, we have reflected this change in accounting principle on a retrospective basis resulting in changes to the

historical periods presented. The retrospective application of the change resulted in a decrease to our January 1, 2016 retained

earnings of $105 million and a decrease to our net loss from continuing operations by $15 million and $124 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and the ~~net realizable value less~~year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, and a ~~normal profit margin, which was historically used to establish a floor and ceiling for an assessment of market value. The adoption of this standard was immaterial~~decrease to our ~~financial statements.~~net earnings from continuing operations by $147 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. This change did not affect our previously reported cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities.

NOTE 2. BUSINESSES HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF BUSINESSES HELD FOR SALE

On November 13, 2017, the Company announced its intention to exit approximately $20 billion of assets over the next one to two years. In the fourth quarter of 2017, in connection with this announcement, GE classified various businesses with assets of $1,684 million and liabilities of $721 million as held for sale. These businesses span across our Power, Lighting, Aviation and Healthcare segments and resulted in a pre-tax loss on the planned disposals of $1,075 million ($1,045 million after-tax) as of March 31, 2018, of which $1,033 million of pre-tax loss ($1,024 million after-tax) was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017.

On September 25, 2017, we signed an agreement to sell our Industrial Solutions business within our Power segment with assets of ~~$2,220~~$2,308 million and liabilities of ~~$561~~$413 million, to ABB for approximately $2,600 ~~million.~~million (approximately $1,900 million net cash proceeds after adjusting for deal taxes and for cash to be received by GE Capital for receivables originated in our Industrial Solutions business and sold to them). The transaction is targeted to close in mid-2018.

On March 8, 2017, we signed an agreement to sell our Water business within our Power segment to Suez Environnement S.A. (Suez). On September 30, 2017, we completed the sale for consideration of $3,041 million, net of obligations assumed and cash transferred, ~~(including~~ ~~$122~~ ~~million from sale of receivables originated in our Water business and sold from GE Capital to Suez) and recognized an after-tax gain of~~ ~~$1,872~~ ~~million in the third quarter of 2017 in the caption “Other income” in our consolidated Statement of Earnings.~~

Unrealized losses are not indicative of the amount of credit loss that would be recognized and at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 are primarily due to increases in market yields subsequent to our purchase of the securities. We presently do not intend to sell the vast majority of our debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position and believe that it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the vast majority of these securities before anticipated recovery of our amortized cost.

We expect actual maturities to differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to call or prepay certain obligations.

Although we generally do not have the intent to sell any specific securities at the end of the period, in the ordinary course of managing our investment securities portfolio, we may sell securities prior to their maturities for a variety of reasons, including diversification, credit quality, yield and liquidity requirements and the funding of claims and obligations to policyholders.

(b)

In order to manage ~~the~~ credit exposure, the Company sells additional current receivables to third parties outside the Receivables Facility, substantially all of which are serviced by the Company. The outstanding balance of these current receivables was $~~2,460~~2,330 million and $~~3,821~~2,541 million at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, ~~2016~~2017, respectively.

At ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, ~~2016~~2017, our maximum exposure to loss under the limited recourse arrangements is $3480 million and $~~215~~90 million, respectively.


(c)	GE current receivables balances at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, ~~2016~~2017, before allowance for losses, included $~~9,912~~10,544 million and $~~8,927~~10,452 million, respectively, from sales of goods and services to customers. The remainder of the balances primarily relates to supplier advances, revenue sharing programs and other non-income based tax receivables.

RECEIVABLES FACILITY

The Company has a ~~$3,200~~$3,750 million revolving Receivables Facility under which receivables are sold directly to third-party purchasers. The third-party purchasers have no recourse to other assets of the Company in the event of non-payment by the debtors. Where the purchasing entity is a bank multi-seller commercial paper conduit, assets transferred by other parties to that entity form a majority of the entity’s assets. Upon sale of the receivables, we receive proceeds of cash and a deferred purchase price (DPP). The DPP is an interest in specified assets of the purchasers (the receivables sold by GE Capital) that entitles GE Capital to the residual cash flows of those specified assets.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, GE Industrial sold current receivables of ~~$15,057~~$5,416 million to GE Capital, which GE Capital sold immediately to third parties under the Receivables Facility. GE Capital continues to service the current receivables for the purchasers. The Company received total cash collections of ~~$14,729~~$5,315 million on previously sold current receivables owed to the purchasing entities. The purchasing entities reinvested ~~$12,681~~$4,610 million of those collections to purchase newly originated current receivables from the Company and paid ~~$461~~$720 million to purchase newly originated current receivables from the company. In addition, the purchase of additional receivables by the purchasing entities increased their DPP obligation to the Company by $61 million and they paid $42 million to reduce their DPP ~~obligation~~obligation.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded a loss of $32 million on sales of current receivables to the ~~Company.~~third party purchasers.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, GE Industrial recognized a loss of $100 million resulting from a discount on the sale of these receivables to GE Capital. GE Capital recovered the majority of this loss on the sale of the receivables to third party purchasers.

At ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, GE Capital, under the Receivables Facility, serviced ~~$2,903~~$3,323 million and $3,222 million of transferred receivables that remain ~~outstanding.~~outstanding, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the purchasers paid GE Capital servicing fees of $8 million.

Given the short-term nature of the underlying receivables, discount rates and prepayments are not factors in determining the value of the DPP. Collections on the DPP are presented within Cash flows from ~~operating~~investing activities in the GE Capital and consolidated ~~column~~columns in the Statement of Cash Flows. As the performance of the transferred current receivables is similar to the performance of our other current receivables, delinquencies are not expected to be significant.

Of the ~~$317~~$324 million of nonaccrual financing receivables at ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, the vast majority are secured by collateral and ~~$271~~$202 million are currently paying in accordance with the contractual terms.

The recorded investment in impaired loans at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, ~~2016~~2017 was ~~$352~~$357 million and ~~$262~~$286 million, respectively. The method used to measure impairment for these loans is primarily based on collateral value. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, troubled debt restructurings included in impaired loans were $130 million.

The GE Capital financing receivable portfolio includes $904 million and $890 million of loans that are guaranteed by GE, of which $257 million and $239 million of these loans are on nonaccrual at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. These impaired loans are measured based on market and collateral value at a consolidated level, however, are not impaired loans at GE Capital because of the GE guarantee and are therefore not included in the nonaccrual receivables mentioned above. At March 31, 2018, $248 million of these non accrual loans are also 90 days past due. In addition to the allowance for loan losses recorded at GE Capital, an additional allowance for loan losses of $160 and $161 million was recorded at GE and on a consolidated level for guaranteed loans at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

In connection with the strategic shift to make GE Capital smaller and more focused, we classified $2,231 million of Energy Financial Services financing receivables as held for sale at December 31, 2017, as we no longer intend to hold these financing receivables for the foreseeable future. The related held for sale balance at March 31, 2018 is $2,081 million. Pre-tax provisions for losses on financing receivables of $14 million and $137 ~~million.~~million and write-offs of $14 million and $156 million were recorded at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively to reduce the carrying value of the financing receivables to the lower of cost or fair value, less the cost to sell.

NOTE 8. ACQUISITIONS, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

ACQUISITIONS

On ~~October 11, 2016,~~April 20, 2017, we ~~announced a plan to acquire~~acquired LM Wind Power, the Danish maker of rotor blades for approximately $1,700 million. ~~The transaction closed on April 20, 2017.~~ The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of approximately ~~$1,300~~$1,600 million and amortizable intangible assets of approximately ~~$200~~$210 million. The allocation of the purchase price will be finalized upon completion of post-closing procedures.

~~In the first quarter of~~On January 10, 2017, we acquired the remaining 96% of ServiceMax, a leader in cloud-based field service management solutions, for $867 million, net of cash acquired of $91 million. Upon gaining control, we fair valued the business including our previously held 4% equity interest. The ~~preliminary~~ purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of ~~approximately $670~~$686 million and amortizable intangible assets of ~~approximately $280~~$279 million. ~~The allocation of the purchase price will be finalized upon completion of post-closing procedures.~~

~~On September 14,~~In 2016, we acquired ~~the remaining 74%~~a total of 76.2% of the ~~software developer Meridium Inc.~~shares of Arcam AB, a Swedish company specializing in electron beam melting systems, in our Aviation segment for $477 million, net of cash ~~proceeds of $369 million.~~acquired. Upon gaining control, we fair valued the business including our previously held ~~26%~~14.3% equity interest. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of ~~approximately $360~~$523 million and amortizable intangible assets of ~~approximately $150~~$96 million.

~~On May 10, 2016,~~ In the first quarter of 2018, we announced the pending acquisition of the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) business from Doosan Engineering & Construction for $250 million. On August 16, 2016, we closed on 80% of the HRSG businessacquired an additional 20% interest in Arcam for approximately ~~$220 million.~~ ~~On May 23, 2017, we closed an additional 15% of the remaining HRSG business for approximately $35 million.

BAKER HUGHES

On July 3, 2017, GE completed the ~~previously announced~~ combination of GE’s Oil & Gas business (GE Oil & Gas) with Baker Hughes Incorporated (Baker Hughes). As part of the transaction, GE contributed GE Oil & Gas and $7,498 million~~$7,498 million~~ in cash in exchange for an ownership interest of approximately 62.5% in the new combined company. The operating assets of the new combined company are held through a partnership named Baker Hughes, a GE company, LLC (BHGE LLC). GE holds an economic interest of approximately 62.5% in this partnership, and Baker Hughes’ former shareholders hold an ownership interest of approximately 37.5% through a newly NYSE listed corporation, Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE), which controls the partnership. In turn, GE holds a controlling, voting interest of approximately 62.5% in BHGE through Class B Common Stock, which grants voting rights but no economic rights. Baker Hughes’ former shareholders received one share of BHGE Class A Common Stock and a special one-time cash dividend of $17.50 per share at closing. Total consideration was $24,798 million, including the $7,498 million cash contribution.

The Baker Hughes acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination, using the acquisition method. The net assets of Baker Hughes’ contributed businesses were recorded at their estimated fair value, and GE Oil & Gas continues at its historical or carryover basis. We recorded noncontrolling interest of ~~$16,470~~$16,231 million for the approximate 37.5% ownership interest in the combined company held by BHGE’s Class A shareholders. The noncontrolling interest is recorded at fair value for the portion attributable to Baker Hughes and at our historical cost for the portion attributable to GE Oil & Gas. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest associated with the acquired net assets was determined by the publicly traded share price of Baker Hughes at the close of the transaction. The impact of recognizing the noncontrolling interest in GE Oil & Gas resulted in an increase to additional paid in capital of ~~$1,131~~$97 million. Previously we disclosed that the impact of recognizing the noncontrolling interest was a decrease to additional paid in capital of $126 million. The primary reason for the change from prior quarter is the adoption of ASC 606 in the first quarter of 2018.

The tables below present the ~~preliminary~~ fair value of the consideration exchanged and the preliminary allocation of purchase price to the major classes of assets and liabilities of the acquired Baker Hughes business and the associated fair value of preexisting noncontrolling interest related to the acquired net assets of Baker Hughes. The estimated values are not yet final and are subject to change, and the changes could be significant. We will finalize ~~the amounts recognized as soon as possible as~~our purchase accounting once we obtain the information necessary to complete ~~the~~our analysis but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company made measurement period adjustments to reflect facts and circumstances in existence as of the acquisition date. These adjustments resulted in an increase in goodwill of approximately $329 million primarily due to a reduction to the fair values of property, plant and equipment of $288 million and intangible assets of $45 million. As a result of the decrease in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets during the first quarter of 2018, we recorded a cumulative decrease to depreciation and amortization expense of $27 million. In addition, we reclassified certain legacy Baker Hughes business balances to conform to our presentation.

INCOME TAXES

BHGE LLC ~~will be~~is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, accordingly, ~~will~~does not incur any material current or deferred U.S. federal income taxes. BHGE LLC’s foreign subsidiaries, however, are expected to incur current and deferred foreign income taxes.

At closing, GE and BHGE, entered into a Tax Matters Agreement. The Tax Matters Agreement governs the administration and allocation between the parties of tax liabilities and benefits arising prior to, as a result of, and subsequent to the transaction. GE will be responsible for certain taxes related to the formation of the transaction undertaken by GE and Baker Hughes and their respective subsidiaries. We have assumed approximately ~~$35~~$33 million of tax obligations of Baker Hughes related to the formation of the transaction.

2018 1Q FORM 10-Q 71



FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Tax Matters Agreement will also provide for the sharing of certain tax benefits arising from the transaction. GE will be entitled to 100% of these tax benefits to the extent that GE has borne certain taxes related to the formation of the transaction. Thereafter, these tax benefits will be shared by GE and BHGE in accordance with their ownership of the partnership, which will initially be approximately 62.5% and approximately 37.5%, respectively.

We test goodwill for impairment annually in the third quarter of each year using data as of July 1 of that year. The impairment test consists of two steps: in step one, the carrying value of the reporting unit is compared with its fair value; in step two, which is applied when the carrying value is more than its fair value, the amount of goodwill impairment, if any, is derived by deducting the fair value of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities from the fair value of its equity, and comparing that amount with the carrying amount of goodwill. We determined fair values for each of the reporting units using the market approach, when available and appropriate, or the income approach, or a combination of both. We assess the valuation methodology based upon the relevance and availability of the data at the time we perform the valuation. If multiple valuation methodologies are used, the results are weighted appropriately.

Valuations using the market approach are derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses is based on the markets in which the reporting units operate giving consideration to risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services. A market approach is limited to reporting units for which there are publicly traded companies that have the characteristics similar to our businesses.

Under the income approach, fair value is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate. We use our internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and include an estimate of long-term future growth rates based on our most recent views of the long-term outlook for each business. Actual results may differ from those assumed in our forecasts. We derive our discount rates using a capital asset pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to our reporting units to estimate the cost of equity financing. We use discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective businesses and in our internally developed forecasts. Discount rates used in our reporting unit valuations ranged from 10.0% to 18.0%.

~~During the third quarter of 2017, we performed~~We perform our annual impairment test of goodwill in the third quarter for all of our reporting units. ~~Based on~~In addition, to our annual testing, we also test goodwill for impairment between annual impairment testing dates whenever events or circumstances occur, that, in our judgment, could more likely than not reduce the fair value of one or more of our reporting units below its carrying amount.

In assessing the possibility that a reporting unit’s fair value has been reduced below its carrying amount due to the occurrence of events or circumstances between annual impairment testing dates, we consider all available evidence, including (i) the results of our ~~step one~~impairment testing from the ~~fair values of each~~most recent testing date (in particular, the magnitude of the GEexcess of fair value over carrying value observed), (ii) downward revisions to internal forecasts or decreases in market multiples (and the magnitude thereof), if any, and (iii) declines in our market capitalization below our book value (and the magnitude and duration of those declines), if any. In the first quarter of 2018 we did not identify any reporting units exceeded their carrying values except for our Power Conversion reporting unit, within our Power operating segment. The primary factors contributing to a reduction in fair value of this reporting unit were extended downturns in certain of its customer segments, most notably the marine and oil and gas markets, increased pricing and cost pressures in low margin renewable markets, and the delayed introduction of new technologies and products. Therefore, we performed a step two analysis. As a result of this analysis, we recognized a non-cash goodwillthat required an interim impairment loss of $947 million ($940 million after tax) during the third quarter to write down the carrying values of Power Conversion’s goodwill to its implied fair value of $191 million. The impairment loss was recorded on the Statement of Earnings to Other costs and expenses. After the impairment loss, the fair value of our Power Conversion reporting unit was in excess of its carrying value by approximately 2%.test.

In addition, we identified one reporting unit for which the fair value was not substantially in excess of its carrying value. The Grid Solutions reporting unit within our Power operating segment was formed as a result of the Alstom acquisition in November 2015. Since fair value equaled carrying value at the time of acquisition, this caused the fair value of this reporting unit not to be significantly in excess of its carrying value. In the current annual impairment test, fair value of Grid Solutions was in excess of its carrying value by approximately 3% and, therefore, continues to be not substantially in excess of carrying value. While the goodwill of this reporting unit is not currently impaired, there could be an impairment in the future as a result of changes in certain assumptions. For example, the fair value could be adversely affected and result in an impairment of goodwill if expected synergies of the acquisition with Alstom are not realized or if the reporting unit was not able to execute on customer opportunities, the estimated cash flows are discounted at a higher risk-adjusted rate or market multiples decrease. The goodwill associated with our Grid Solutions reporting unit was $4,418 million, representing approximately 5% of our total goodwill at September 30, 2017.

While the fair values of our Oil & Gas reporting units are in excess of their carrying values, the Oilfield Equipment and Oilfield Services reporting unit continues to experience declines in orders, project commencement delays and pricing pressures, which reduced its fair value. To the extent that conditions further deteriorate, the fair value of this reporting unit will continue to decline. We will continue to monitor the oil & gas industry and the impact it may have on this reporting unit. In addition, because of the Baker Hughes acquisition and related integration activities, the composition of our historical reporting units for the Oil & Gas operating segment may change. In the event that any of our reporting units change substantially, we will be required to re-test the reporting units as of the date of the reorganization, re-allocate goodwill based on the relative fair values of the new reporting units, and record any required impairment. Finally, the operating and reporting segments and associated reporting units for BHGE are different than GE’s, as BHGE is a subsidiary and performs its reporting unit assessment one level below its operating segments.

As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, we believe ~~no other goodwill impairment exists, apart from the impairment charge discussed above, and that the remaining~~ goodwill is recoverable for all of our reporting units. However, the ~~reporting units; however,~~Power and Oil & Gas markets continue to be challenging and there can be no assurances that ~~additional~~ goodwill will not be impaired in future ~~periods.~~periods as a result of sustained declines in macroeconomic or business conditions affecting our reporting units.

Estimating the fair value of reporting units requires the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including actual operating results. It is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates described above could change in future periods.

NOTE 9. REVENUES

REVENUES FROM THE SALE OF EQUIPMENT

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED OVER TIME

We recognize revenue on agreements for the sale of customized goods including power generation equipment, nuclear fuel assemblies, larger oil drilling equipment projects, military development contracts, locomotive units, and long-term construction projects on an over time basis. We recognize revenue using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. Our estimate of costs to be incurred to fulfill our promise to a customer is based on our history of manufacturing or constructing similar assets for customers and is updated routinely to reflect changes in quantity or pricing of the inputs. We recognize revenue as we customize the customer's equipment during the manufacturing or integration process and obtain right to payment for work performed. We provide for potential losses on any of these agreements when it is probable that we will incur the loss.

Our billing terms for these over-time contracts vary, but are generally based on achieving specified milestones. The differences between the timing of our revenue recognized (based on costs incurred) and customer billings (based on contractual terms) results in changes to our contract asset or contract liability positions (see Note 10 for further information).

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED AT A POINT IN TIME

We recognize revenue on agreements for non-customized equipment including commercial aircraft engines, healthcare equipment, resource extraction equipment and other goods we manufacture on a standardized basis for sale to the market at a point in time. We recognize revenue at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the good, which is generally no earlier than when the customer has physical possession of the product. We use proof of delivery for certain large equipment with more complex logistics, whereas the delivery of other equipment is estimated based on historical averages of in-transit periods (i.e., time between shipment and delivery).

In situations where arrangements include customer acceptance provisions based on seller or customer-specified objective criteria, we recognize revenue when we have concluded that the customer has control of the goods and that acceptance is likely to occur. We generally do not provide for anticipated losses on point in time transactions prior to transferring control of the equipment to the customer.

Our billing terms for these point in time equipment contracts vary and generally coincide with delivery to the customer; however, within certain businesses, we receive progress payments from customers for large equipment purchases, which is generally to reserve production slots.

REVENUES FROM THE SALE OF SERVICES

Consistent with our discussion in the MD&A and the way we manage our businesses, we refer to sales under product services agreements and sales of both goods (such as spare parts and equipment upgrades) and related services (such as monitoring, maintenance and repairs) as sales of “services,” which is an important part of our operations.

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED OVER TIME

We enter into long-term product service agreements with our customers primarily within our Aviation, Power, Oil & Gas and Transportation segments. These agreements require us to provide preventative maintenance, asset overhaul / updates, and standby "warranty-type" services that include certain levels of assurance regarding asset performance and uptime throughout the contract periods, which generally range from 5 to 25 years. We account for items that are integral to the maintenance of the equipment as part of our service related performance obligation, unless the customer has a substantive right to make a separate purchasing decision (e.g., equipment upgrade). We recognize revenue as we perform under the arrangements using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. Throughout the life of a contract, this measure of progress captures the nature, timing and extent of our underlying performance activities as our stand-ready services often fluctuate between routine inspections and maintenance, unscheduled service events and major overhauls at pre-determined usage intervals. Contract modifications that extend or revise contract terms are not uncommon and generally result in our recognizing the impact of the revised terms prospectively over the remaining life of the modified contract (i.e., effectively like a new contract).

74 2018 1Q FORM 10-Q



FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our billing terms for these arrangements are generally based on the utilization of the asset (e.g., per hour of usage) or upon the occurrence of a major maintenance event within the contract, such as an overhaul. The differences between the timing of our revenue recognized (based on costs incurred) and customer billings (based on contractual terms) results in changes to our contract asset or contract liability positions (see Note 10 for further information).

Changes in customer utilization can influence the timing and extent of overhauls and other service events over the life of the contract. As a result, the revenue recognized each period is dependent on our estimate of how customers will utilize their assets over the term of the agreement. We generally use a combination of both historical utilization trends as well as forward-looking information such as market conditions and potential asset retirements in developing our revenue estimates. This estimate of customer utilization will impact both the total contract billings and costs to satisfy our obligation to maintain the equipment. In developing our cost estimates, we utilize a combination of our historical cost experience and expected cost improvements. Cost improvements are generally only included in future cost estimates after savings have been observed in actual results or proven to be effective through an extensive regulatory engineering approval process.

We also enter into long-term product services agreements in our Healthcare and Renewable Energy segments. Revenues are recognized for these arrangements on a straight line basis consistent with the nature, timing and extent of our services, which primarily relate to ongoing maintenance and as needed product repairs. Our billing terms for these contracts vary, but we generally invoice periodically as services are provided.

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED AT A POINT IN TIME

We sell certain tangible products, largely spare equipment, through our services businesses. We recognize revenues and bill our customers for this equipment at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the good, which is at the point in time we deliver the spare part to the customer.

~~Future~~To the extent that unrealized gains on debt securities supporting our insurance contracts would result in a premium deficiency should those gains be realized, an increase in future policy benefit reserves ~~are accounted for mainly by a net-level premium method using estimated yields generally ranging from 3.0% to 8.5%~~is recorded, with an offsetting amount recorded in ~~both 2017 and 2016.~~Other comprehensive income, net of taxes.


(b)	Includes ~~$3,431~~$3,665 million and ~~$3,129~~$3,590 million related to long term-care insurance contracts and $351 million and $364 million related to short-duration contracts, net of eliminations, at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 and December 31, ~~2016,~~2017, respectively.

Future policy benefit reserves represent the present value of such benefits less the present value of future net premiums and are based on actuarial assumptions established at the time the policies were issued or acquired. These assumptions include, but are not limitedDuring 2017, in response to interest rates, health care experience (including type and cost of care), mortality, and the length of time a policy will remain in force. Our annual premium deficiency testing assesses the adequacy of future policy benefit reserves, net of capitalized acquisition costs using current assumptions. Should the net liability for future policy benefits plus the present value of expected future premiums be insufficient to provide for the present value of expected future policy benefits and expenses, we would be required to reduce remaining capitalized acquisition costs and, to the extent a shortfall still exists, increase our existing future policy benefit reserves. We have recently experienced elevated claim experience for a portion of our long-term care insurance contracts ~~and are conducting~~that was most pronounced for policyholders with higher attained ages, we initiated a comprehensive review of premium deficiency assumptions across all insurance ~~contracts, including a reassessment of~~products, which included reconstructing our future claim ~~projections~~cost assumptions for long-term care contracts ~~that~~utilizing trends observed in our emerging experience for older claimant ages and later duration policies. Certain of our long-term care policyholders only recently started to reach the prime claim paying period and our new claim cost assumptions considered the emerging credibility of this claim data. In addition to the adverse impact from the increased expected future claim cost assumptions over a long-term horizon, our premium deficiency assumptions considered mortality, length of time a policy will ~~be incorporated within our annual test~~remain in force and both near-term and longer-term investment return expectations. Future investment yields estimated in 2017 were lower than in previous premium deficiency tests, primarily due to the effect of near term yields on approximately $14.5 billion of future ~~policy benefit reserves for~~expected capital contributions. The indicated premium ~~deficiencies~~deficiency resulted in a $9,481 million pre-tax charge to earnings in the fourth quarter of 2017. ~~We would record a charge~~

In response to ~~earnings for any~~the premium ~~deficiencies~~deficiency, our future policy benefit reserves at December 31, 2017 were unlocked and updated to reflect our most recent assumptions. Our future policy benefit reserves are subject to premium deficiency testing at least annually, which we expect to perform in the ~~fourth quarter~~second half of ~~2017 upon completion~~the year. Any future adverse changes in our assumptions could result in an increase to future policy benefit reserves. Any favorable changes to these assumptions could result in additional margin in our premium deficiency test and higher income over the remaining duration of ~~this review.~~the portfolio, including higher investment income.

Claim reserves ~~are established when~~included incurred claims of $492 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, of which $1 million and $31 million related to the recognition of adjustments to prior year claim reserves arising from our periodic reserve evaluation, in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Paid claims were $484 million and $428 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The vast majority of paid claims relate to prior year insured events primarily as a ~~claim is incurred or is estimated to have been incurred and represents our best estimate~~result of the ~~ultimate obligations for future claim payments and claim adjustment expenses. Key inputs include actual known facts about the claims, such as the benefits available and cause~~length of disability of the claimant, as well as assumptions derived from our actual historical experience and expected future changes in experience factors. Claim reserves are evaluated periodically for potential changes in loss

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ~~13.~~14. INCOME TAXES

Our consolidated effective income tax rates were ~~(7.9)~~(6.5)% and ~~4.9%~~198.1% during the ~~nine~~three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The rate for 2018 benefited from U.S. business credits and ~~2016, respectively.~~as described below, an adjustment for Baker Hughes related to the provisional estimate of the impact of enactment of tax reform and an adjustment to decrease the 2018 three-month tax rate to be in line with the lower expected full-year rate partially offset by the cost of the newly enacted base erosion and global intangible income provisions in excess of the benefit from other global activities. The rate for 2017 benefited from the tax difference on global activities ~~the tax rate on the disposition of the Water business~~ and U.S. business credits ~~and for 2016 from a deductible stock loss and U.S. business credits. In the nine months ended 2017, these decreases were~~ partially offset ~~by the non-deductible impairment of goodwill associated with the Power Conversion business and~~ by an adjustment to ~~bring~~increase the ~~nine-month~~2017 three-month tax rate to be in line with the higher expected full-year rate. In

On December 22, 2017, the ~~nine months ended 2016, there was a further decrease to bring~~U.S. enacted legislation commonly known as the ~~nine-month~~Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”) that lowered the statutory tax rate on U.S. earnings to 21%, taxes historic foreign earnings at a reduced rate of tax, establishes a territorial tax system and enacts new taxes associated with global operations.

The impact of enactment of U.S. tax reform has been recorded on a provisional basis as the legislation provides for additional guidance to be issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on several provisions including the computation of the transition tax. Guidance during 2018 could impact the information required for and the calculation of the transition tax charge and could affect decisions that affect the tax on various U.S. and foreign items, which would further impact the final amounts included in ~~line~~the transition charge and impact the revaluation of deferred taxes. In addition, analysis performed and conclusions reached as part of the tax return filing process and additional guidance on accounting for U.S. tax reform could affect the provisional amount.

Additionally, as part of tax reform, the U.S. has enacted a minimum tax on foreign earnings (“global intangible low tax income”). We have not made an accounting policy election on the deferred tax treatment and, consequently, we have not made an accrual for the deferred tax aspects of this provision.

With the enactment of U.S. tax reform, we recorded, for the period ending December 31, 2017, tax expense of $4,512 million to reflect our provisional estimate of both the transition tax on historic foreign earnings ($1,155 million including $2,925 million at GE and $(1,770) million at GE Capital) and the revaluation of deferred taxes ($3,357 million including $1,980 million at GE and $1,377 million at GE Capital). We have not significantly adjusted our provisional estimate during the first quarter of 2018 as we continue to analyze information related to our operations as well as new guidance and other aspects of the enacted provisions. However, there were discrete changes in the provisional estimate of the change in tax rate on deferred taxes identified at Baker Hughes in connection with the ~~lower expected full-year rate.~~measurement period adjustments to purchase price allocation that reduced the provisional amounts recorded by $103 million in the quarter. Of this benefit, $134 million relates to non-consolidated operations and did not affect net earnings attributable to the company as there is an offsetting adjustment in income from noncontrolling interests. The cost of $31 million relates to the revaluation of deferred taxes corresponding to measurement period adjustments to the purchase price allocation for the Baker Hughes acquisition.

InTax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the ~~ordinary course of business, there~~taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. Significant judgment is ~~inherent uncertainty~~required in ~~quantifying~~determining our ~~income~~tax expense and in evaluating our tax positions. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date.

(a)	Some portion of such reduction may be reported as discontinued operations.

The ~~increases for the period ended September 30, 2017 primarily relate to preliminary estimates of uncertain taxes for entities consolidated as part of the Baker Hughes transaction.~~

~~The~~ Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently auditing our consolidated U.S. income tax returns for 2012-2013 and has begun the audit for 2014-2015. In addition, certain other U.S. tax deficiency issues and refund claims for previous years are still unresolved. It is reasonably possible that a portion of the unresolved items could be resolved during the next 12 months, which could result in a decrease in our balance of "unrecognized tax benefits" - that is, the aggregate tax effect of differences between tax return positions and the benefits recognized in our financial statements. We believe that there are no other jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We further believe that we have made adequate provision for all income tax uncertainties.

~~OTHER~~Alstom holds redemption rights with respect to its interest in the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures, which, if exercised, would require us to purchase all of their interest during September 2018 or September 2019. Alstom also holds similar redemption rights for the global nuclear and French steam power joint venture that are exercisable during the first quarter of 2021 or the first quarter of 2022. The redemption price would generally be equal to Alstom's initial investment plus annual accretion of 3% for the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures and plus annual accretion of 2% for the nuclear and French steam power joint venture, with potential upside sharing based on an EBITDA multiple. Alstom also holds additional redemption rights in other limited circumstances as well as a call option to require GE to sell all of its interests in the renewable energy joint venture at the higher of fair value or Alstom's initial investment plus annual accretion of 3% during the month of May in the years 2017 through 2019 and also upon a decision to IPO the joint venture.

~~Dividends from~~In January 2018, Alstom informed us that they intend to exercise their redemption rights with respect to the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures in September 2018. The minimum price that GE ~~Capital~~would be required to pay, pursuant to the agreements, to purchase Alstom’s interest at that time would be a net amount of €1,828 million for the grid technology joint venture and €636 million for the renewable energy joint venture. Alstom has also informed us that they intend to exercise their redemption rights with respect to the global nuclear and French steam power joint venture in the first quarter of 2021.

GE ~~totaled zero~~holds a call option on Alstom's interest in the global nuclear and ~~$5,050 million~~French steam power joint venture at the same amount as Alstom's redemption price in the event that Alstom exercises its put option in the grid technology or renewable energy joint ventures. GE also has call options on Alstom's interest in the three ~~months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively and $4,105 million, including cash dividends of $4,016 million, and $16,050 million~~joint ventures in other limited circumstances. In addition, the French Government holds a preferred interest in the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2017~~global nuclear and 2016, respectively. Dividends on GE preferred stock totaled $36 million and $33 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $252 million, including cash dividends of $147 million and $474 million, including cash dividends of $184 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Dividends on GE preferred stock are payable semi-annually, in June and December, and accretion is recorded on a quarterly basis.

NOTE ~~16.~~17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ~~AND NON-RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS~~

The following table provides information about assets and liabilities not carried at fair value. The table excludes finance leases, equity investments without readily determinable fair value and non-financial assets and liabilities. Substantially all of the assets discussed below are considered to be Level 3. The vast majority of our liabilities’ fair value can be determined based on significant observable inputs and thus considered Level 2. Few of the instruments are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using financial models. Realization of the fair value of these instruments depends upon market forces beyond our control, including marketplace liquidity.

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

FORMS OF HEDGING

In this section we explain the hedging methods we use and their effects on our financial statements.

Cash flow hedges – We use cash flow hedging primarily to reduce or eliminate the effects of foreign exchange rate changes on purchase and sale contracts in our industrial businesses and to convert foreign currency debt that we have issued in our financial services business back to our functional currency.

As part of our ongoing effort to reduce borrowings, we may repurchase debt that was in a cash flow hedge accounting relationship. At the time of determining that the debt cash flows are probable of not occurring any related OCI will be released to earnings.

We hedge the currency risk associated with those investments primarily using ~~short-term currency exchange contracts under which we receive US dollars and pay foreign currency and~~ non-derivative instruments such as debt denominated in a foreign currency and short-term currency exchange contracts under which we receive U.S. dollars and pay foreign currency.

~~FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~	~~NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

Economic Hedges- These derivatives are not designated as hedges from an accounting standpoint (and therefore we do not apply hedge accounting to the relationship) but otherwise serve the same economic purpose as other hedging arrangements. We use economic hedges when we have exposures to currency exchange risk for which we are unable to meet the requirements for hedge accounting or when changes in the carrying amount of the hedged item are already recorded in earnings in the same period as the derivative making hedge accounting unnecessary. Even though the derivative is an effective economic hedge, there may be a net effect on earnings in each period due to differences in the timing of earnings recognition between the derivative and the hedged item.

NOTIONAL AMOUNT OF DERIVATIVES

The notional amount of a derivative is the number of units of the underlying (for example, the notional principal amount of the debt in an interest rate swap). The notional amount is used to compute interest or other payment streams to be made under the contract and is a measure of our level of activity. We generally disclose derivative notional amounts on a gross basis. The majority of the outstanding notional amount of ~~$185~~$161 billion at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2018 is related to managing interest rate and currency risk between financial assets and liabilities in our financial services business. The remaining derivative notional amount primarily relates to hedges of anticipated sales and purchases in foreign currency, commodity purchases and contractual terms in contracts that are considered embedded derivatives.

The table below provides additional information about how derivatives are reflected in our financial statements.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For cash flow hedges, the amount of ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship and amount of the changes in ~~shareowners' equity~~fair value of the derivatives that are not included in the measurement of ineffectiveness were insignificant for each reporting period.

COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK

Fair values of our derivatives can change significantly from period to period based on, among other factors, market movements and changes in our positions. We manage counterparty credit risk (the risk that counterparties will default and not make payments to us according to the terms of our agreements) on an individual counterparty basis. Where we have agreed to netting of derivative exposures with a counterparty, we net our exposures with that counterparty and apply the value of collateral posted to us to determine the exposure. We actively monitor these net exposures against defined limits and take appropriate actions in response, including requiring additional collateral.

As discussed above, we have provisions in certain of our master agreements that require counterparties to post collateral (typically, cash or U.S. Treasury securities) when our receivables due from the counterparties, measured at current market value, exceeds specified limits. The fair value of such collateral was $1,678 million at March 31, 2018, of which $1,329 million was cash and $350 million was in the form of securities held by a custodian for our benefit. Under certain of these same agreements, we post collateral to our counterparties for our derivative obligations, the fair value of cash collateral posted was $155 million at March 31, 2018. At March 31, 2018, our exposures to counterparties (including accrued interest), net of collateral we hold, was $288 million. This excludes exposures related to ~~hedging and amounts released to earnings.~~embedded derivatives.

~~See Note 21 for~~Additionally, our master agreements typically contain mutual downgrade provisions that provide the ability of each party to require termination if the long-term credit rating of the counterparty were to fall below A-/A3 or other ~~supplemental information about derivatives~~ratings levels agreed upon with the counterparty. In certain of these master agreements, each party also has the ability to require termination if the short-term rating of the counterparty were to fall below A-1/P-1. Our master agreements also typically contain provisions that provide termination rights upon the occurrence of certain other events, such as a bankruptcy or events of default by one of the parties. If an agreement was terminated under any of these circumstances, the termination amount payable would be determined on a net basis and ~~hedging.~~could also take into account any collateral posted. The net amount of our derivative liability, after consideration of collateral posted by us and outstanding interest payments was $252 million at March 31, 2018. This excludes exposure related to embedded derivatives.

NOTE ~~17.~~18. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

A VIE is an entity that has one of three characteristics: (1) it is controlled by someone other than its shareowners or partners, (2) its shareowners or partners are not economically exposed to the entity's earnings (for example, they are protected against losses), or (3) it was thinly capitalized when it was formed.

In the normal course of business we become involved with VIEs either because we help create them or we invest in them. Our VIEs either provide goods and services to customers or provide financing to third parties for the purchase of GE goods and services. If we control the VIE, we consolidate it and provide disclosure below. However, if the VIE is a business and use of its assets is not limited to settling its liabilities, ongoing disclosures are not required.

CONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Our most significant consolidated VIEs are four joint ventures used to complete acquisitions. The newest of these, BHGE LLC was formed as part of the Baker Hughes transaction. BHGE LLC owns the operating assets of GE Oil & Gas and Baker Hughes. BHGE LLC is a VIE as we hold an economic interest of approximately 62.5% in the partnership, but we hold no voting or participating rights through our direct economic ownership.

(b)

In January 2018, ownership of the equity shares of Electric Insurance Company ("EIC") were distributed to GE Capital by a bankruptcy trustee. We have previously reported EIC as a VIE because we received a 100% beneficial interest in the assets, liabilities and operations of EIC, related to an interim distribution in 2001. As EIC is now a consolidated voting interest entity we removed EIC from our VIE disclosure. In 2017, $1,470 million of assets and $959 million of liabilities were included related to EIC.

Total revenues from our consolidated VIEs were ~~$293~~$174 million and ~~$211~~$252 million for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2018 and 2017, ~~and 2016, respectively and $801 million and $881 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016,~~ respectively.

~~OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES~~

~~LEGAL MATTERS~~

~~WMC.~~ During the fourth quarter of 2007, we completed the sale of WMC, our U.S. mortgage business. WMC substantially discontinued all new loan originations by the second quarter of 2007, and is not a loan servicer. In connection with the sale, WMC retained certain representation and warranty obligations related to loans sold to third parties prior to the disposal of the business and contractual obligations to repurchase previously sold loans that had an early payment default. All claims received by WMC for early payment default have either been resolved or are no longer being pursued.

The remaining active claims have been brought by securitization trustees or administrators seeking recovery from WMC for alleged breaches of representations and warranties on mortgage loans that serve as collateral for residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS). At September 30, 2017, such claims consisted of $1,019 million of individual claims generally submitted before the filing of a lawsuit (compared to $1,060 million at December 31, 2016) and $5,435 million of additional claims asserted against WMC in litigation without making a prior claim (Litigation Claims) (compared to $5,456 million at December 31, 2016). The total amount of these claims, $6,454 million, reflects the purchase price or unpaid principal balances of the loans at the time of purchase and does not give effect to pay downs or potential recoveries basedtermination rights upon the underlying collateral, which in many cases are substantial, nor to accrued interest or fees. WMC believes that repurchase claims brought based upon representations and warranties made more than six years before WMC was notifiedoccurrence of the claim would be disallowed in legal proceedings under applicable law and the June 11, 2015 decision of the New York Court of Appeals in ACE Securities Corp. v. DB Structured Products, Inc., on the statute of limitations period governingcertain other events, such claims. Giving effect to the settlements and subsequent dismissals of lawsuits on five securitizations discussed in Legal Proceedings, active claims at October 26, 2017 consisted of $462 million of individual claims generally submitted before the filing of a lawsuit and $3,198 million of Litigation Claims, as defined above.

Reserves related to repurchase claims made against WMC were $647 million at September 30, 2017, reflecting a net increase to reserves in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 of $21 million. The reserve estimate takes into account recent settlement activity and is based upon WMC’s evaluation of the remaining exposures as a ~~percentage~~bankruptcy or events of estimated lifetime mortgage loan losses within the pool of loans supporting each securitization for which timely claims have been asserted in litigation against WMC. Settlements in prior periods reduced WMC’s exposure on claims asserted in certain securitizations and the claim amounts reported above give effect to these settlements.

~~FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~	~~NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

Given the significant litigation activity and WMC’s continuing efforts to resolve the lawsuits involving claims made against WMC, it is difficult to assess whether future losses will be consistent with WMC’s past experience. Adverse changes to WMC’s assumptions supporting the reserve may result in an increase to these reserves. WMC estimates a range of reasonably possible loss from $0 to approximately $500 million over its recorded reserve at September 30, 2017. This estimate involves significant judgment and may not reflect the range of uncertainties and unpredictable outcomes inherent in litigation, including the matters discussed in Legal Proceedings and potential changes in WMC’s legal strategy. This estimate excludes any possible loss associated with an adverse court decision on the applicable statute of limitations or an adverse outcome in the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) investigation discussed in Legal Proceedings, as WMC is unable at this time to develop such a meaningful estimate. With respect to the FIRREA investigation, this inability to develop a meaningful estimate of the range of reasonably possible loss reflects, among other factors, the range of penalties and other sanctions incurreddefault by ~~various financial institutions in proceedings and settlements involving claims made under FIRREA by the U.S. Department of Justice~~.

At September 30, 2017, there were 10 lawsuits involving claims made against WMC arising from alleged breaches of representations and warranties on mortgage loans included in 11 securitizations. The adverse parties in these cases are securitization trustees or parties claiming to act on their behalf. As discussed in Legal Proceedings, five of these lawsuits have been dismissed following the conclusion of settlement agreements, and one of the ~~lawsuits is subject~~parties. If an agreement was terminated under any of ~~a settlement agreement approved by a Minnesota state court~~. ~~One of~~these circumstances, the ~~lawsuits involves claims made on two securitizations, and these claims are the subject of settlement agreements to which objections have been filed in California state court~~. Two of the three remaining lawsuits have been stayed pending the outcome of ongoing settlement negotiations. The sole remaining active lawsuit against WMC is the TMI case, discussed in Legal Proceedings, which was recently scheduled for trial on January 16, 2018. Settlement discussions to date have been unsuccessful, and if this case proceeds to trial and WMC is found liable, it is likely damagestermination amount payable would be ~~in an amount exceeding the total value of WMC’s assets.~~

~~Although the alleged claims for relief vary from case to case, the complaints~~determined on a net basis and counterclaims in these actions generally assert claims for breach of contract, indemnification, and/or declaratory judgment, and seek specific performance (repurchase of defective mortgage loan) and/or money damages. Adverse court decisions, including in cases not involving WMC, could result in new claims and lawsuits on additional loans. However, WMC continues to believe that it has defenses to the claims asserted in litigation, including, for example, based on causation and materiality requirements and applicable statutes of limitations. It is not possible to predict the outcome or impact of these defenses and other factors,also take into account any ~~of which could materially affect the~~collateral posted. The net amount of ~~any loss ultimately incurred~~our derivative liability, after consideration of collateral posted by ~~WMC on these claims.~~

WMC has also received indemnification demands, nearly all of which are unspecified, from depositors/underwriters/sponsors of RMBS or securitization trustees in connection with actual or potential claims concerning alleged misrepresentations in the securitization offering documents to which WMC is not a party, mortgage loan repurchase claims made against RMBS sponsors or other claims involving alleged defects in loans sold by WMC. WMC believes that it has defenses to these demands.

~~To the extent WMC is required to repurchase loans, WMC’s loss also would be affected by several factors, including pay downs, accrued~~us and outstanding interest and fees, and the value of the underlying collateral. The reserve and estimate of possible loss reflect judgment, based on currently available information, and a number of assumptions, including economic conditions, claim and settlement activity, pending and threatened litigation, court decisions regarding WMC’s legal defenses, indemnification demands, government activity, and other variables in the mortgage industry. Actual losses arising from claims against WMC could exceed these amounts and additional claims and lawsuits could result if actual claim rates, governmental actions, litigation and indemnification activity, adverse court decisions, actual settlement rates or losses WMC incurs on repurchased loans differ from its assumptions.

~~Alstom legacy matters~~. ~~On November 2, 2015, we acquired the Thermal, Renewables and Grid businesses from Alstom. Prior to the acquisition, the seller~~payments was ~~the subject of two significant cases involving anti-competitive activities and improper payments: (1) in January 2007, Alstom was fined €65~~$252 million by the European Commission for participating in a gas insulated switchgear cartel that operated from 1988 to 2004 (that fine was later reduced to €59 million), and (2) in December 2014, Alstom pled guilty in the United States to multiple violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and paid a criminal penalty of $772 million. As part of GE’s accounting for the acquisition, we established a reserve amounting to $858 million for legal and compliance mattersat March 31, 2018. This excludes exposure related to ~~the legacy business practices that were the subject of these and related cases in various jurisdictions.~~

Regardless of jurisdiction, the allegations relate to claimed anti-competitive conduct or improper payments in the pre-acquisition period as the source of legal violations and/or damages. Given the significant litigation and compliance activity related to these matters and our ongoing efforts to resolve them, it is difficult to assess whether the disbursements will ultimately be consistent with the reserve established. The estimation of this reserve involved significant judgment and may not reflect the full range of uncertainties and unpredictable outcomes inherent in litigation and investigations of this nature. Damages sought may include disgorgement of profits on the underlying business transactions, fines and/or penalties, interest, or other forms of resolution. Factors that can affect the ultimate amount of losses associated with these matters include the way cooperation is assessed and valued, prosecutorial discretion in the determination of damages, formulas for determining fines and penalties, the duration and amount of legal and investigative resources applied, and political and social influences within each jurisdiction, among other considerations. Actual losses arising from claims in these matters could exceed the amount provided. At this time, we are unable to develop a meaningful estimate of the range of reasonably possible additional losses for this exposure.

~~ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS~~

Our operations, like operations of other companies engaged in similar businesses, involve the use, disposal and cleanup of substances regulated under environmental protection laws. We are involved in numerous remediation actions to clean up hazardous wastes as required by federal and state laws. Liabilities for remediation costs exclude possible insurance recoveries and, when dates and amounts of such costs are not known, are not discounted. When there appears to be a range of possible costs with equal likelihood, liabilities are based on the low end of such range. It is reasonably possible that our environmental remediation exposure will exceed amounts accrued. However, due to uncertainties about the status of laws, regulations, technology and information related to individual sites, such amounts are not reasonably estimable.

These joint ventures are in all other respects regular businesses and are therefore exempt from ongoing disclosure requirements for consolidated VIEs provided below.

The table below provides information about consolidated VIEs that are subject to ongoing disclosure requirements. Substantially all of these entities were created to help our customers finance the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2017~~purchase of GE goods and ~~2016 for:~~services or to purchase GE customer notes receivable arising from sales of GE goods and services. These entities have no features that could expose us to losses that could significantly exceed the difference between the consolidated assets and liabilities.

(a)	~~Included within the subsidiaries~~ Two funding vehicles established to purchase customer notes receivable from GE, one of which is partially funded by third-party debt.

(b)

In January 2018, ownership of the ~~Subsidiary Guarantor are cash~~equity shares of Electric Insurance Company ("EIC") were distributed to GE Capital by a bankruptcy trustee. We have previously reported EIC as a VIE because we received a 100% beneficial interest in the assets, liabilities and ~~cash equivalent balances of $19,301 million and net assets of discontinued~~ operations of ~~$3,776 million.~~EIC, related to an interim distribution in 2001. As EIC is now a consolidated voting interest entity we removed EIC from our VIE disclosure. In 2017, $1,470 million of assets and $959 million of liabilities were included related to EIC.

Total revenues from our consolidated VIEs were $174 million and $252 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Related expenses consisted primarily of cost of goods and services of $73 million and $95 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Where we provide servicing for third-party investors, we are contractually permitted to commingle cash collected from customers on financing receivables sold to third-party investors with our own cash prior to payment to third-party investors, provided our short-term credit rating does not fall below A-1/P1. These third-party investors also owe us amounts for purchased financial assets and scheduled interest and principal payments. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the amounts of commingled cash owed to the third-party investors were $53 million and $92 million, respectively.

UNCONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

We become involved with unconsolidated VIEs primarily through assisting in the formation and financing of the entity. We do not consolidate these entities because we do not have power over decisions that significantly affect their economic performance. Our investments in unconsolidated VIEs, at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $5,191 million and $5,833 million, respectively. Substantially all of these investments are held by Energy Financial Services. Obligations to make additional investments in these entities are not significant.

The total pre-tax amount in AOCI related to cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions was a $160 million gain at September 30, 2017. We expect to transfer $39 million gain to earnings as an expense in the next 12 months contemporaneously with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions. In both the six months ended 2017 and 2016, we recognized insignificant gains and losses related to hedged forecasted transactions and firm commitments that did not occur by the end of the originally specified period. At September 30, 2017 and 2016, the maximum term of derivative instruments that hedge forecasted transactions was 15 years and 16 years, respectively. See Note 14 for additional information about reclassifications out of AOCI.

For cash flow hedges, the amount of ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship and amount of the changes in fair value of the derivatives that are not included in the measurement of ineffectiveness were insignificant for each reporting period.

COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK

As discussed above, we have provisions in certain of our master agreements that require counterparties to post collateral (typically, cash or U.S. Treasury securities) when our ~~receivable~~receivables due from the counterparties, measured at current market value, exceeds a specified ~~limit.~~limits. The fair value of such collateral was ~~$2,529~~$1,678 million at ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, of which ~~$2,091~~$1,329 million was cash and ~~$437~~$350 million was in the form of securities held by a custodian for our benefit. Under certain of these same agreements, we post collateral to our counterparties for our derivative obligations, the fair value of cash collateral posted was ~~$276~~$155 million at ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2018, our ~~exposure~~exposures to counterparties (including accrued interest), net of collateral we hold, was ~~$681~~$288 million. This excludes ~~exposure~~exposures related to embedded derivatives.

Additionally, our master agreements typically contain mutual downgrade provisions that provide the ability of each party to require termination if the long-term credit rating of the counterparty were to fall below A-/A3 or other ratings levels agreed upon with the counterparty. In certain of these master agreements, each party also has the ability to require termination if the short-term rating of the counterparty were to fall below A-1/P-1. Our master agreements also typically contain provisions that provide termination rights upon the occurrence of certain other events, such as a bankruptcy or events of default by one of the parties. If an agreement was terminated under any of these circumstances, the termination amount payable would be determined on a net basis and could also take into account any collateral posted. The net amount of our derivative liability, after consideration of collateral posted by us and outstanding interest payments was ~~$271~~$252 million at ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. This excludes exposure related to embedded derivatives.

NOTE 18. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

CONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The remaining three joint ventures were formed as part of the Alstom acquisition. These joint ventures include grid technology, renewable energy, and global nuclear and French steam power and have combined assets, liabilities and redeemable non-controlling interest as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 3Qof $16,357 million, $10,896 million and $3,208 million and $16,344 million, $11,463 million and $3,065 million, respectively. These joint ventures are considered VIEs because the equity held by Alstom does not participate fully in the earnings of the ventures due to contractual features allowing Alstom to sell their interests back to GE (see Note 14 for further information). We consolidate these joint ventures because we control all their significant activities. These joint ventures are in all other respects regular businesses and are therefore exempt from ongoing disclosure requirements for consolidated VIEs provided below.

(a)	Two funding vehicles established to purchase customer notes receivable from GE, one of which is partially funded by third-party debt.

(b)

Where we provide servicing for third-party investors, we are contractually permitted to commingle cash collected from customers on financing receivables sold to third-party investors with our own cash prior to payment to third-party investors, provided our short-term credit rating does not fall below A-1/P1. These third-party investors also owe us amounts for purchased financial assets and scheduled interest and principal payments. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the amounts of commingled cash owed to the third-party investors were $53 million and $92 million, respectively.

UNCONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

We become involved with unconsolidated VIEs primarily through assisting in the formation and financing of the entity. We do not consolidate these entities because we do not have power over decisions that significantly affect their economic performance. Our investments in unconsolidated VIEs, at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $5,191 million and $5,833 million, respectively. Substantially all of these investments are held by Energy Financial Services. Obligations to make additional investments in these entities are not significant.

NOTE 19. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, PRODUCT WARRANTIES AND OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS

The GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS) business in GE Capital has placed multiple-year orders for various Boeing, Airbus and other aircraft manufacturers with list prices approximating $36,506 million and secondary orders with airlines for used aircraft of approximately $3,271 million at March 31, 2018. In our Aviation segment, we have committed to provide financing assistance of $1,937 million of future customer acquisitions of aircraft equipped with our engines.

GUARANTEES

Our guarantees are provided in the ordinary course of business. We underwrite these guarantees considering economic, liquidity and credit risk of the counterparty. We believe that the likelihood is remote that any such arrangements could have a significant adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. We record liabilities for guarantees at estimated fair value, generally the amount of the premium received, or if we do not receive a premium, the amount based on appraisal, observed market values or discounted cash flows. Any associated expected recoveries from third parties are recorded as other receivables, not netted against the liabilities.

At March 31, 2018, we were committed under the following guarantee arrangements beyond those provided on behalf of VIEs. See Note 18.

Credit Support. We have provided $1,667 million of credit support on behalf of certain customers or associated companies, predominantly joint ventures and partnerships, using arrangements such as standby letters of credit and performance guarantees. These arrangements enable these customers and associated companies to execute transactions or obtain desired financing arrangements with third parties. Should the customer or associated company fail to perform under the terms of the transaction or financing arrangement, we would be required to perform on their behalf. Under most such arrangements, our guarantee is secured, usually by the asset being purchased or financed, or possibly by certain other assets of the customer or associated company. The length of these credit support arrangements parallels the length of the related financing arrangements or transactions. The liability for such credit support was $80 million at March 31, 2018.

Indemnification Agreements – Continuing Operations. We have agreements that require us to fund up to $241 million at March 31, 2018 under residual value guarantees on a variety of leased equipment. Under most of our residual value guarantees, our commitment is secured by the leased asset. The liability for these indemnification agreements was $7 million at March 31, 2018.

At March 31, 2018, we also had $1,852 million of other indemnification commitments, substantially all of which relate to representations and warranties in sales of businesses or assets. The liability for these indemnification commitments was $260 million at March 31, 2018.

Indemnification Agreements – Discontinued Operations. At March 31, 2018, we provided specific indemnifications to buyers of GE Capital’s assets that, in the aggregate, represent substantially all of the maximum potential claim of $2,786 million.The majority of these indemnifications relate to the sale of businesses and assets under the GE Capital Exit Plan. We have recorded related liabilities of $301 million, which incorporates our evaluation of risk and the likelihood of making payments under the indemnities. The recognized liabilities represent the estimated fair value of the indemnities when issued as adjusted for any subsequent probable and estimable losses. In addition, in connection with the 2015 public offering and sale of Synchrony Financial, GE Capital indemnified Synchrony Financial and its directors, officers, and employees against the liabilities of GECC's businesses other than historical liabilities of the businesses that are part of Synchrony Financial's ongoing operations.

Contingent Consideration. These are agreements to provide additional consideration to a buyer or seller in a business combination if contractually specified conditions related to the acquisition or disposition are achieved. Amount of contingent consideration was insignificant at March 31, 2018.

OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL MATTERS

WMC.During the fourth quarter of 2007, we completed the sale of WMC, our U.S. mortgage business. WMC substantially discontinued all new loan originations by the second quarter of 2007, and was never a loan servicer. In connection with the sale, WMC retained certain representation and warranty obligations related to loans sold to third parties prior to the disposal of the business and contractual obligations to repurchase previously sold loans that had an early payment default. All claims received by WMC for early payment default have either been resolved or are no longer being pursued.

The remaining active claims have been brought by securitization trustees or administrators seeking recovery from WMC for alleged breaches of representations and warranties on mortgage loans that serve as collateral for residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS). At March 31, 2018, such claims consisted of $298 million of individual claims generally submitted before the filing of a lawsuit (compared to $462 million at December 31, 2017) and $3,107 million of additional claims asserted against WMC in litigation without making a prior claim (Litigation Claims) (compared to $3,198 million at December 31, 2017). The total amount of these claims, $3,404 million, reflects the purchase price or unpaid principal balances of the loans at the time of purchase and does not give effect to pay downs or potential recoveries based upon the underlying collateral, which in many cases are substantial, nor to accrued interest or fees. WMC believes that repurchase claims brought based upon representations and warranties made more than six years before WMC was notified of the claim would be disallowed in legal proceedings under applicable law and the June 11, 2015 decision of the New York Court of Appeals in ACE Securities Corp. v. DB Structured Products, Inc., on the statute of limitations period governing such claims.

Reserves related to repurchase claims made against WMC were $342 million at March 31, 2018, reflecting a net decrease to reserves in the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $74 million due to settlements. The reserve estimate takes into account recent settlement activity and is based upon WMC’s evaluation of the remaining exposures as a percentage of estimated lifetime mortgage loan losses within the pool of loans supporting each securitization for which timely claims have been asserted in litigation against WMC. Settlements in prior periods reduced WMC’s exposure on claims asserted in certain securitizations and the claim amounts reported above give effect to these settlements. During the first quarter of 2018, we also recorded a reserve of $1,500 million in connection with the U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ) ongoing investigation regarding potential violations of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) by WMC and GE Capital discussed in Legal Proceedings.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Given the significant litigation activity and WMC’s continuing efforts to resolve the lawsuits involving claims made against WMC, it is difficult to assess whether future losses will be consistent with WMC’s past experience. Adverse changes to WMC’s assumptions supporting the reserve may result in an increase to these reserves. WMC estimates a range of reasonably possible loss from $0 to approximately $500 million over its recorded reserve at March 31, 2018. This estimate involves significant judgment and may not reflect the range of uncertainties and unpredictable outcomes inherent in litigation, including the matters discussed in Legal Proceedings and potential changes in WMC’s legal strategy. This estimated range of reasonably possible loss excludes any possible loss associated with an adverse court decision on the applicable statute of limitations, as well as any additional loss beyond the amount of our current reserve for the FIRREA investigation, as we are unable at this time to develop such a meaningful estimate. With respect to the FIRREA investigation, this inability to develop a meaningful estimate of any additional loss beyond the amount of our current reserve reflects, among other factors, the wide variety and broad range of penalties and other sanctions incurred by various financial institutions in proceedings and settlements involving claims made under FIRREA by the DOJ, and the possibility WMC will file for bankruptcy in the event of a finding of liability in the TMI case discussed in Legal Proceedings. It is possible, however, that the ultimate liability of GE Capital and/or WMC could be higher than our current reserve if a negotiated settlement of the FIRREA investigation cannot be reached at a level commensurate with the reserve, or if we face adverse litigation outcomes if a negotiated settlement cannot be reached.

At March 31, 2018, there were four lawsuits involving claims made against WMC arising from alleged breaches of representations and warranties on mortgage loans included in five securitizations, one of which was dismissed in April 2018. The adverse parties in these cases are securitization trustees or parties claiming to act on their behalf. As discussed in Legal Proceedings, two of the three remaining lawsuits have been stayed pending court approval of settlement agreements. The sole remaining active lawsuit against WMC is the TMI case, and a bench trial in that case began on January 16, 2018.

Although the alleged claims for relief vary from case to case, the complaints and counterclaims in these actions generally assert claims for breach of contract, indemnification, and/or declaratory judgment, and seek specific performance (repurchase of defective mortgage loans) and/or money damages. Adverse court decisions, including in cases not involving WMC, could result in new claims and lawsuits on additional loans. However, WMC continues to believe that it has defenses to the claims asserted in litigation, including, for example, based on causation and materiality requirements and applicable statutes of limitations. It is not possible to predict the outcome or impact of these defenses and other factors, any of which could materially affect the amount of any loss ultimately incurred by WMC on these claims.

WMC has also received indemnification demands, nearly all of which are unspecified, from depositors/underwriters/sponsors of RMBS in connection with lawsuits brought by RMBS investors concerning alleged misrepresentations in the securitization offering documents to which WMC is not a party, or, in two cases, involving mortgage loan repurchase claims made against RMBS sponsors. WMC believes that it has defenses to these demands.

To the extent WMC is required to repurchase loans, WMC’s loss also would be affected by several factors, including pay downs, accrued interest and fees, and the value of the underlying collateral. The reserve and estimate of possible loss reflect judgment, based on currently available information, and a number of assumptions, including economic conditions, claim and settlement activity, pending and threatened litigation, court decisions regarding WMC’s legal defenses, indemnification demands, government activity, and other variables in the mortgage industry. Actual losses arising from claims against WMC could exceed these amounts and additional claims and lawsuits could result if actual claim rates, governmental actions, litigation and indemnification activity, adverse court decisions, actual settlement rates or losses WMC incurs on repurchased loans differ from its assumptions. Adverse developments under any of these scenarios, or a finding of liability in the TMI case discussed above, could be in an amount exceeding the total value of WMC's assets.

Alstom legacy matters. On November 2, 2015, we acquired the Thermal, Renewables and Grid businesses from Alstom. Prior to the acquisition, the seller was the subject of two significant cases involving anti-competitive activities and improper payments: (1) in January 2007, Alstom was fined €65 million by the European Commission for participating in a gas insulated switchgear cartel that operated from 1988 to 2004 (that fine was later reduced to €59 million), and (2) in December 2014, Alstom pled guilty in the United States to multiple violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and paid a criminal penalty of $772 million. As part of GE’s accounting for the acquisition, we established a reserve amounting to $858 million for legal and compliance matters related to the legacy business practices that were the subject of these and related cases in various jurisdictions.
