REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Plan Participants and Plan Administrator of GE Aerospace Retirement Savings Plan.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of the GE Aerospace Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Report on Supplemental Schedule
The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2024, has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental schedule reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental schedule. In forming our opinion on the supplemental schedule, we evaluated whether the supplemental schedule, including its form and content, is presented in compliance with the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, such schedule is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

GE AEROSPACE RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2024 and 2023
(1) Description of the Plan
The GE Aerospace Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”), formerly the GE Retirement Savings Plan, is a defined contribution plan sponsored by General Electric Company, operating as GE Aerospace (the “Company”).
The Plan is subject to applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The assets of the Plan are held in and invested through the GE Retirement Savings Trust (the “Trust”).
Fidelity Workplace Services, LLC is the Plan’s recordkeeper. The Plan Trustees have appointed Fidelity Management Trust Company (“FMTC”) as the directed Trustee of the Trust.
SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (“SSGA FM”), an affiliate of State Street Corporation (“SSC”) is the investment advisor to three of the Plan’s investment options. State Street Global Advisors Trust Company (“SSGA TC”, and together with SSGA FM, "SSGA"), also affiliated with SSC, is the investment advisor to two of the Plan’s investment options.
Mercer Trust Company LLC and its affiliate, Mercer Investments LLC (formerly, Mercer Investment Management, Inc.) are the manager and investment advisor, respectively, for the Mercer GE International Equity Fund.
BlackRock Institutional Trust Company, N.A. (“BlackRock”) is the investment advisor to six of the Plan’s investment options, which include passively managed funds in equity and fixed income classes (collectively referred to herein as the “Index Funds”). BlackRock is the manager to the Plan’s suite of ten Target Retirement Date Funds.
The description of the Plan is provided for general information purposes only. The complete terms of the Plan are provided in the GE Aerospace Retirement Savings Plan document (the “Plan Document”). Plan information including benefits, investment options, vesting provisions and effects of plan termination is also included in Plan handbooks and other material distributed to participants.
Employee Contributions and Investment Options
Eligible employees of the Company and participating affiliates may participate in the Plan by investing up to 30% of their eligible earnings in one or more of the offered investment options.
As of December 31, 2024, the Plan's investments include:
•Separate accounts: the General Electric Common Stock Fund (the “GE Stock Fund”), the GE Vernova Stock Fund, and Target Retirement Date Funds (each a “TRD Fund” of collectively, "TRD Funds"). The separate accounts invest in corporate stocks and collective funds.
•Registered investment companies: the SSGA Income Fund (the “Income Fund”), the SSGA US Core Equity Fund (the “U.S. Equity Fund”) and the SSGA Small-Cap Equity Fund (the "Small-Cap Fund”).
•Collective funds: various index funds, the State Street Custom Short-Term Interest Non-Lending Series Fund (the “ST Interest Fund”), the State Street Custom Government Reserves Non-Lending Series Fund (the “Government Reserve Fund”), and the Mercer GE International Equity Fund.
Collectively, these investments are referred to herein as the "Funds".
The GE HealthCare Stock Fund and the GE Vernova Stock Fund were added to the Plan as a result of the respective spin-offs of GE HealthCare Technologies, Inc., and GE Vernova Inc., during 2023 and 2024, respectively. Participants invested in the GE Stock Fund at the time of the spin-off, automatically received units in either the GE HealthCare

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2024 and 2023
Stock Fund or the GE Vernova Stock Fund based on the applicable spin. The GE HealthCare Stock Fund was fully liquidated in January 2024 and the GE Vernova Stock Fund was fully liquidated in April 2025.
The Plan permits participants to invest compensation on which income taxes have and have not been paid (“after-tax” and “pre-tax”, respectively). The U.S. Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) limits the amount of pre-tax contributions that can be made each year. The limit for participants under age 50 was generally $23,000 in 2024. For participants who were at least age 50 during the year, the limit was generally $30,500 in 2024. The Plan also permits participants to make Roth contributions, which are combined with pre-tax contributions for purposes of these limits.
Participants may switch their investment balances (including rebalancing) up to 12 times each quarter. Restrictions on such switches include certain restrictions on a participant’s ability to engage in frequent trading in response to Securities and Exchange Commission requirements governing mutual funds.
Employer Contributions
The Plan generally provides for employer matching contributions of 50% of employees’ contributions of up to 8% of their earnings, that is, a 4% maximum matching contribution.
Certain eligible employees on salaried benefits (whose first day of work is on or after January 1, 2011) and certain eligible employees on production benefits (whose first day of work is on or after January 1, 2012) also receive a Company Retirement Contribution generally equal to 3% of their earnings, irrespective of any employee contributions. In addition, effective January 1, 2021, participants whose benefit under the GE Aerospace Pension Plan, formerly the GE Pension Plan, is frozen also receive the Company Retirement Contribution. The Company Retirement Contribution is credited annually (generally in the following January) for employees on salaried benefits, and each pay period for employees on production benefits. Those employees on production benefits may also be eligible for an Additional Company Retirement Contribution (“ACRC”) per year credited in the following January. For the 2024 plan year, the Company funded in January 2025 total Company Retirement Contributions of $83.8 million and ACRCs of $2.9 million. For the 2023 plan year, the Company funded in January 2024 total Company Retirement Contributions of $128.2 million and ACRCs of $5.4 million. Hereinafter, the Company Retirement Contribution and the ACRC shall be referred to collectively as “Company Retirement Contributions” (“CRCs”). The CRCs are in addition to the employer matching contribution. A participant who does not have a regular investment election on file will be electing to invest the CRCs in the TRD Fund consistent with the participant’s age.
Newly hired non-union employees who are eligible for CRCs and who have not made an affirmative election regarding the amount (if any) of their own savings are automatically enrolled as electing to contribute 8% of eligible pay as pre-tax contributions. This election entitles these employees to the maximum 4% matching contribution. A participant who does not have a regular investment election on file will be electing to invest these contributions in the TRD Fund consistent with the participant’s age. These elections can be changed at any time before or after the employee is automatically enrolled.
Newly hired union employees who are eligible for CRCs and who have not made an affirmative election regarding the amount (if any) of their own savings are automatically enrolled as electing to contribute 2% of eligible pay as pre-tax contributions. This election entitles these employees to a 1% matching contribution. A participant who does not have a regular investment election on file will be electing to invest these contributions in the TRD Fund consistent with the participant’s age. These elections can be changed at any time before or after the employee is automatically enrolled.
Rollovers from Other Qualifying Plans
Subject to Company approval, participants may elect to rollover amounts from other qualifying plans or arrangements in accordance with the IRC.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2024 and 2023
Withdrawals
Subject to certain limitations prescribed by the Plan and the IRC, terminated participants may elect retirement or other termination withdrawals in either lump sum or partial payments. Employed participants may make regular withdrawals and certain hardship withdrawals from their participant accounts (except with respect to amounts attributable to any CRCs). There are no restrictions on the number and dollar amount of partial termination withdrawals and regular withdrawals, and the Plan allows for age 59 ½ and disability withdrawal options.
Notes Receivable from Participants
The Plan permits participants, under certain circumstances, to borrow a minimum of $500 from their participant accounts (except with respect to amounts attributable to any CRCs or any non-vested matching contributions, which are not available for loans). Subject to certain IRC and Plan limits, a participant may not borrow more than the lesser of 50% of that participant’s available account value, as defined in the Plan Document, or $50,000, adjusted for prior loans. The term of any loan is up to 4.5 years unless the loan is used to acquire a principal residence for which a term of up to 15 years may be permissible. The interest rate applicable to participant loans is based on the monthly average of the composite yield on corporate bonds, published by Moody’s Investors Service. The interest rates for new loans are fixed for the term of the loan.
Loans are repaid with interest in equal payments over the term of the loan by payroll deductions, personal check, or other such methods as may be required. Participants may repay the entire principal amount with written notice and without penalty. Partial prepayments in amounts not less than the regular repayment amount are permissible without penalty and without re-amortization of the remaining principal amount. A participant may have no more than two outstanding loans from the Plan at any time (subject to limited exceptions resulting from a plan merger).
In the event of a loan default, the amount of the outstanding balance will be reported to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in the year of the default as ordinary income.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions and CRCs (as applicable) and allocation of (a) employer matching contributions and (b) investment results. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the value of the participant’s vested account.
The costs of overnight delivery requests are charged to participants and certain former employees are charged quarterly account recordkeeping fees. This is reflected under 'Administrative expenses' on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
Vesting
Participants are fully vested in their employee contributions, employer matching contributions and related investment results. Participants receiving CRCs and related earnings generally become vested in those amounts once the participant completes three years of service. This same three-year vesting requirement applies to employer matching contributions for employees on salaried benefits whose first day of work is on or after January 1, 2018.
Forfeitures
During 2024, forfeitures of approximately $10.2 million were used to reduce employer contributions in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2024 and 2023
Plan Termination and Amendment
Although the Company has not expressed any intent to do so, it has the right under the Plan, to the extent permitted by law, to terminate the Plan in accordance with the provisions of ERISA. If the Plan is terminated, each participant’s interest will be payable in full according to the Plan's provisions. The Company also has the right under the Plan, to the extent permitted by law, to amend or replace the Plan for any reason.
Administrative and Investment Advisory Costs
Administrative costs of the Plan and certain investment advisory costs are generally borne by the Company. For certain registered investment companies, collective funds, and TRD Funds, investment advisors receive a management fee for providing investment advisory services. These management fees are reflected in interest and dividend income for the registered investment companies and in net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments for the collective funds and TRD Funds on the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America ("US GAAP").
(b) Investments
Plan investments are reported at fair value. See notes 4 and 5 for additional information.
Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. The net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of investments held at year end consists of the realized gains or losses on the sales of investments and the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments.
More detailed information regarding these financial instruments, as well as the strategies and policies for their use, is contained in the documents described above under “Employee Contributions and Investment Options” in note 1.
(c) Fair Value Measurements
For financial assets and liabilities, fair value is the price the Plan would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets and liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.
Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical investments in active markets.
- 10 -
GE AEROSPACE RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2024 and 2023
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar investments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
The Company maintains policies and procedures to value investments using the best and most relevant data available. In addition, the Company retains independent pricing vendors to assist in valuing certain investments.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the investments measured at fair value. There have been no changes in methodologies used at December 31, 2024 and 2023.
•Common stock and registered investment companies: as applicable, valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual security is traded. They are included in level 1 investments.
•Collective funds: generally valued using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share as a practical expedient for fair value provided certain criteria are met. The NAVs are determined based on the fair values of the underlying investments of the funds. Investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV as a practical expedient are not classified in the fair value hierarchy.
(d) Notes Receivable from Participants
Loans to participants are recorded at the outstanding principal balance plus accrued interest.
(e) Participant Withdrawals
Participant withdrawals are recorded when paid. Included in participant withdrawals are GE common stock cash dividends paid to participants of approximately $0.9 million during 2024.
(f) Management Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(3) Asset Transfers
Effective April 1, 2024 and a result of the separation of GE Vernova, assets and liabilities of $7,582 million were transferred out of the Plan and into the GE Vernova Retirement Savings Plan.

(6) Risk and Uncertainties
The Plan offers a number of investment options including the GE Common Stock Fund and a variety of investment funds, consisting of registered investment companies and collective funds. The registered investment companies and collective funds invest in U.S. equities, international equities and fixed income securities. Investment securities in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur (including in the near term) and that such changes could materially affect participant account balances and amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits.
The Plan’s exposure to a concentration of credit risk is limited by the opportunity to diversify investments across multiple participant-directed fund elections including active and passively managed funds covering multiple asset classes. Additionally, the investments within each participant-directed fund election are further diversified into varied financial instruments, with the exception of the GE Common Stock Fund, GE Vernova Stock Fund, and GE HealthCare Stock Fund which primarily invest in a single security.

(7) Related Party Transactions (Parties in Interest)
The Plan’s recordkeeper, trustee, investment advisors and custodians described in note 1, as well as the Company and Plan participants, are each a “party in interest” to the Plan as defined by ERISA. Parties in interest to the Plan are noted in the Schedule H, Line 4i - Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year). Any fees paid by the Plan with respect to those or other transactions are described in the GE Retirement Savings Plan Supplemental Information document.
The Plan's investments included the GE Common Stock Fund as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the GE Vernova Common Stock Fund as of December 31, 2024 and the GE HealthCare Common Stock Fund as of December 31, 2023. The Plan purchased $168.1 million and $106.7 million, sold $756.3 million and $1,447.8 million, and recorded dividend income of $10.5 and $6.2 million during the 2024 and 2023 plan years, respectively. The Plan purchased $264.5 million and sold $59.9 million of the GE Vernova Common Stock for the year ended December 31, 2024. The GE HealthCare Stock Fund was fully liquidated in January 2024.
(8) Tax Status
In December 2016, the Internal Revenue Service began publishing a Required Amendments List ("IRS List") for individually designed plans which specifies changes in qualification requirements. The list is published annually and requires plans to be amended for each item on the list, as applicable, to retain its tax-exempt status.
The IRS has notified the Company by a letter dated September 5, 2024, that the Plan is qualified under the appropriate sections of the IRC and that the related trust is tax-exempt.
The portion of a participant’s compensation contributed to the Plan as a pre-tax contribution and the Company’s matching contribution CRCs are not subject to Federal income tax when such contributions are credited to participant accounts, subject to certain limitations. These amounts and any investment results may be included in the participant’s gross taxable income for the year in which such amounts are withdrawn from the Plan.
(9) Amendments
