2025 1Q FORM 10-Q 17
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which requires us to make estimates based on assumptions about current, and for some estimates, future, economic and market conditions which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in our financial statements. Although our current estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from our expectations, which could materially affect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Such changes could result in future impairments of goodwill, intangibles, long-lived assets, contract assets and investment securities, revisions to estimated profitability on long-term product service and other service agreements, incremental credit losses on receivables and debt securities, incremental losses related to our contingencies, a change in the carrying amount of our tax assets and liabilities, or a change in our insurance liabilities and pension obligations as of the time of a relevant measurement event.
In preparing our Statement of Cash Flows, we make certain adjustments to reflect cash flows that cannot otherwise be calculated by changes in our Statement of Financial Position. These adjustments may include, but are not limited to, the effects of currency exchange, acquisitions and dispositions of businesses, businesses classified as held for sale, the timing of settlements to suppliers for property, plant and equipment, non-cash gains/losses and other balance sheet reclassifications.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, we changed the terminology used to report our earnings from “Earnings” to “Net income.” The change in terminology does not impact the amounts reported in the financial statements. Comparative periods have been renamed to reflect this change for consistency. We have reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current-year’s presentation. Unless otherwise noted, tables are presented in U.S. dollars in millions. Certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions. Earnings-per-share amounts are computed independently for net income from continuing operations, net income from discontinued operations and net income. As a result, the sum of per-share amounts may not equal the total. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. Certain of our operations have been presented as discontinued. We present businesses whose disposal represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on our operations and financial results as discontinued operations when the components meet the criteria for held for sale, are sold, or spun-off. See Note 2 for further information.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes are unaudited. The results reported in these financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes and significant accounting policies included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
NOTE 2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. Our former GE Vernova and GE HealthCare businesses, our mortgage portfolio in Poland (Bank BPH) and other trailing assets and liabilities associated with prior dispositions are included in discontinued operations. Results of operations, financial position and cash flows for these businesses are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented and the notes to the financial statements have been adjusted on a retrospective basis.
GE Vernova. On April 2, 2024, we completed the previously announced separation of GE Vernova. The separation was structured as a tax-free spin-off and was achieved through the Company's pro-rata distribution of all the outstanding shares of GE Vernova to holders of the Company's common stock. In connection with the GE Vernova separation, the historical results of GE Vernova and certain assets and liabilities included in the separation are reported in GE Aerospace consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations. In addition, the Company contributed $515 million of cash to fund GE Vernova’s future operations such that GE Vernova’s cash balance on the date of separation was $4,242 million.
We have continuing involvement with GE Vernova primarily through ongoing sales of products, a transition services agreement, through which GE Aerospace and GE Vernova continue to provide certain services to each other for a period of time following the separation, a separation and distribution agreement, including performance and financial guarantees, a tax matters agreement and a trademark licensing agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had direct and indirect sales of $85 million to GE Vernova, primarily related to engine sales and parts. We collected net cash of $202 million related to the transition services agreement and sales of engines and parts for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
GE HealthCare. On January 3, 2023, we completed the previously announced separation of our HealthCare business, into a separate, independent, publicly traded company, GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. (GE HealthCare). The separation was structured as a tax-free spin-off and was achieved through the Company's pro-rata distribution of approximately 80.1% of the outstanding shares of GE HealthCare to holders of the Company's common stock. In connection with the separation, the historical results of GE HealthCare and certain assets and liabilities included in the separation are reported in GE Aerospace consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations.
We had continuing involvement with GE HealthCare primarily through a transition services agreement, which was completed as of December 31, 2024, through which GE Aerospace and GE HealthCare continued to provide certain services to each other for a period of time following the separation. In addition, we have a tax matters agreement and a trademark licensing agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we collected net cash of $34 million related to these activities.

Bank BPH. As previously reported, Bank BPH, along with other Polish banks, has been subject to ongoing litigation in Poland related to its portfolio of floating rate residential mortgage loans, with cases brought by individual borrowers seeking relief related to their foreign currency indexed or denominated mortgage loans in various courts throughout Poland. The estimate of total losses for borrower litigation at Bank BPH was $2,449 million and $2,461 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. No incremental contributions from GE Aerospace were required during the three months ended March 31, 2025. For further information about factors that are relevant to the estimate of total losses for borrower litigation at Bank BPH, see Note 22. Future changes or adverse developments could increase our estimate of total losses and potentially require future cash contributions to Bank BPH.
The Bank BPH financing receivable portfolio is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less cost to sell, which reflects market yields and estimates with respect to ongoing borrower litigation. At March 31, 2025, the total portfolio hadno carrying value, net of a valuation allowance. Income (loss) related to ongoing borrower litigation waszero in pre-tax charges for both the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

The amortized cost of debt securities excludes accrued interest of $507 million and $473 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which is reported in All other current assets.
The estimated fair value of investment securities at March 31, 2025 increased since December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower market yields partially offset by net proceeds from debt/equity securities sales and early redemptions, both from our run-off insurance operations.
Total estimated fair value of debt securities in an unrealized loss position were $20,859 million and $21,876 million, of which $13,913 million and $14,011 million had gross unrealized losses of $(2,663) million and $(2,795) million and had been in a loss position for 12 months or more at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Gross unrealized losses at March 31, 2025 included $(96) million related to commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) collateralized by pools of commercial mortgage loans on real estate, and $(57) million related to asset-backed securities. The majority of our CMBS and asset-backed securities in an unrealized loss position have received investment-grade credit ratings from the major rating agencies. The majority of our U.S. and non-U.S. corporate securities' gross unrealized losses were in the consumer, electric, technology and communication industries. For our securities in an unrealized loss position, the losses are not indicative of credit losses, we currently do not intend to sell the investments, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
| Three months ended March 31 | ||

| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Net unrealized gains (losses) for equity securities with readily determinable fair value (RDFV) | $5 | $441 |
| Proceeds from debt/equity securities sales and early redemptions | 672 | 3,196 |
| Gross realized gains on debt securities | 5 | 8 |
| Gross realized losses on debt securities | (7) | (11) |
Contractual maturities of our debt securities (excluding mortgage and asset-backed securities) at March 31, 2025 are as follows:
| Amortized cost | Estimated fair value | |
|---|---|---|
| Within one year | $905 | $900 |
| After one year through five years | 3,829 | 3,895 |
| After five years through ten years | 5,135 | 5,195 |
| After ten years | 24,808 | 22,619 |
We expect actual maturities to differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to call or prepay certain obligations.
The majority of our non-current investment securities are classified within Level 2, as their valuation is determined based on significant observable inputs. Investments with a fair value of $4,351 million and $5,074 million, including the AerCap senior note, are classified within Level 3, as significant inputs to their valuation models are unobservable at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, $949 million was transferred out of Level 3 related to increases in the observability of external information used in determining fair value in our run-off insurance operations and primarily included certain investments in private placement U.S. and non-U.S. corporate debt securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 there were no significant transfers into Level 3 and during three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no significant transfers into or out of Level 3.
202025 1Q FORM 10-Q
In addition to the equity securities described above, we held $1,491 million and $1,439 million of equity securities without RDFV including $1,462 million and $1,410 million within our run-off insurance operations at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, that are classified within All other assets in our Statement of Financial Position. Fair value adjustments, including impairments, recorded in income were $38 million and $34 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These are primarily limited partnership investments in private equity, infrastructure and real estate funds that are measured at net asset value per share (or equivalent) as a practical expedient to estimated fair value and are excluded from the fair value hierarchy. These limited partnership investments are generally not eligible for redemption and generally cannot be sold without approval of the general partner. Distributions from each fund will be received as the underlying investments of the funds are liquidated at the discretion of the general partner. These investments are generally considered illiquid and our ability to receive the most recent net asset value in a sale would be determined by external market factors.

In the first quarter of 2025, we did not identify any reporting units that required an interim impairment test.
All other intangible assets are subject to amortization. Intangible assets increased $19 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily as a result of an acquisition of a business within our Defense & Propulsion Technologies segment, additions of capitalized software and foreign currency exchange, partially offset by amortization.

Our insurance operations (net of eliminations) generated revenue of $934 million and $879 million, profit was $205 million and $200 million and net income was $163 million and $158 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These operations were primarily supported by investment securities, substantially all debt securities, of $37,613 million and $37,352 million, limited partnerships of $4,409 million and $4,321 million, a diversified commercial mortgage loan portfolio collateralized by first liens on U.S. commercial real estate properties of $1,885 million and $1,887 million (net of allowance for credit losses of $40 million and $46 million), and residential mortgage loans of $331 million and $251 million (net of allowance for credit losses of an insignificant amount), as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, the commercial mortgage loan portfolio hadone delinquent loan, one non-accrual loan and about one-third of the portfolio was held in the office sector, which had a weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 69%, debt service coverage of 1.7, and an insignificant amount of scheduled maturities through 2026. A summary of our insurance liabilities and annuity benefits is presented below.

As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, policyholders account balances totaled $1,535 million and $1,686 million, respectively. As our insurance operations are in run-off, changes in policyholder account balances for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 are primarily attributed to surrenders, withdrawals, and benefit payments of $114 million and $106 million, partially offset by net additions from separate accounts and interest credited of $74 million and $66 million, respectively. Interest on policyholder account balances is generally credited at minimum guaranteed rates, primarily between 3.0% and 6.0% at both March 31, 2025 and 2024.
On February 3, 2025, we closed the Canadian life and health insurance portfolio reinsurance transaction that was announced in 2024. We received a ceding commission of $128 million and the gain was deferred and will be recognized over the remaining life of the policies or earlier if the underlying treaties are novated.
See Notes 3 and 9 for further information related to our run-off insurance operations.

NOTE 13. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS. We sponsor a number of pension and retiree health and life insurance benefit plans that we present inthree categories; principal pension plans, other pension plans and principal retiree benefit plans. Please refer to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for further information.
The components of benefit plans cost other than the service cost are included in the caption Non-operating benefit costs in our Statement of Operations.
| PRINCIPAL PENSION PLANS | Three months ended March 31 | |

Principal retiree benefit plans income was $15 million and $36 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Principal retiree benefit plans income from continuing operations was $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Other pension plans income was $1 million and $13 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Other pension plans income from continuing operations was $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
We have a defined contribution plan for eligible U.S. employees that provides employer contributions, which were $80 million and $89 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Employer contributions from continuing operations was $54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
NOTE 14. SALES DISCOUNTS AND ALLOWANCES & ALL OTHER LIABILITIES.
Sales discounts and allowances increased $80 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to accruals on spare part discounts and other reserves outpacing payments to airline customers in Commercial Engines & Services.
All other current liabilities and All other liabilities primarily includes employee compensation and benefits, equipment project and commercial liabilities, income taxes payable and uncertain tax positions, environmental, health and safety remediations, operating lease liabilities (see Note 6) and product warranties (see Note 22). All other current liabilities decreased $710 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in employee compensation and benefits of $589 million primarily driven by payments of employee benefit liabilities, and a decrease in equipment projects and other commercial liabilities of $108 million. All other liabilities increased $162 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to increases in uncertain and other income taxes and related liabilities of $54 million, environmental, health and safety liabilities of $41 million and operating lease liabilities of $40 million.
NOTE 15. INCOME TAXES. Our effective income tax rate was 12.6% and 12.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The tax rate for 2025 was reduced compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to U.S. business tax credit benefits, realized foreign tax credits benefits on the reinsurance transaction (see Note 12), tax benefits on equity compensation, and tax effects of favorable audit resolutions. The tax rate for 2024 was reduced compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to gains associated with our retained and sold ownership interests, which we expect to recover without tax, and U.S. business credits.
The OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) has proposed a global minimum tax of 15% of reported profits (Pillar 2) that has been agreed upon in principle by over 140 countries. Since the proposal, many countries incorporated Pillar 2 model rule concepts into their domestic laws. Although the model rules provide a framework for applying the minimum tax, countries may enact Pillar 2 slightly differently than the model rules and on different timelines and may adjust domestic tax incentives in response to Pillar 2. In addition, in January 2025, the United States issued an executive order announcing opposition to aspects of these rules. As countries continue to enact and refine the Pillar 2 rules, we will evaluate the impact on our financial position. In 2025, we expect to incur $0.1 billion in connection with the incorporation of the Pillar 2 model rules.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently auditing our consolidated U.S. income tax returns for 2016-2020.
The following table presents our net deferred tax assets and net deferred tax liabilities attributable to different tax jurisdictions or different tax paying components.

The restructuring liability as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $218 million and $242 million, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, restructuring and other charges for ongoing programs primarily included exit activities announced in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting lower Corporate & Other shared-service and footprint needs as a result of the GE HealthCare and GE Vernova spin-offs.
SEPARATION COSTS. In November 2021, the Company announced its plan to form three industry-leading, global public companies focused on the growth sectors of aerospace, healthcare and energy. As discussed in Note 2, we completed this plan with the spin of GE Vernova in the second quarter of 2024. Post-separation, we expect to continue to incur operational and transition costs related to ongoing separation activities, including employee costs, professional fees, costs to establish certain stand-alone functions and information technology systems, and other transformation to transition to a stand-alone public company. These costs are presented as separation costs in our Statement of Operations.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we incurred pre-tax separation expense of $51 million and $259 million, recognized $10 million and $34 million of net tax benefits and paid $76 million and $165 million in cash, respectively.
The pre-tax separation costs specifically identifiable to GE HealthCare and GE Vernova are reflected in discontinued operations. We incurred insignificant costs for both GE Healthcare and GE Vernova for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as well as for GE Healthcare for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Additionally, we incurred $97 million pre-tax separation costs, recognized $20 million of net tax benefit and spent $83 million in cash related to GE Vernova for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
NOTE 20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The following table provides information about assets and liabilities not carried at fair value and excludes finance leases, equity securities without readily determinable fair value and non-financial assets and liabilities.

Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the accompanying financial statements at fair value are not included in the above disclosures; such items include cash and cash equivalents, investment securities (Note 3) and derivative financial instruments below.
DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING. Our policy requires that derivatives are used solely for managing risks and not for speculative purposes. We use derivatives to manage risks related to foreign currency exchange (including foreign equity investments), interest rates and commodity prices.
We use currency exchange contracts (including cross-currency swaps) for net investment hedges to hedge investments in our foreign operations, or for cash flow hedges primarily to reduce or eliminate the effects of foreign exchange rate changes. Gains and losses on derivatives used in qualified hedges are initially recognized in our Statement of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) except for interest on cross-currency swaps. For cross-currency swaps, we recognize the periodic interest settlements within Interest and other financial charges in the Statement of Operations, and the cash flows associated with these periodic interest settlements are classified as operating activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. Settlements from termination of all qualified hedges are classified in the Statement of Cash Flows following the nature of the hedged items (e.g., investing activities for derivatives used to hedge investments in our foreign operations).
We also use derivatives for 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 income 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 income in each period due to differences in the timing of income recognition between the derivative and the hedged item.

(b) Gains (losses) included in our Statement of Operations are $35 million and $22 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily in SG&A, driven by hedges of foreign exchange fluctuation. Substantially all of these amounts are offset by the remeasurement of the underlying exposure through income.

282025 1Q FORM 10-Q
FAIR VALUE HEDGES. We used fair value hedges to hedge the effects of interest rate and currency changes on debt we issued. All fair value hedges were terminated in 2022 due to exposure management actions. The cumulative net gains related to hedging adjustments of $1,026 million and $1,037 million on discontinued hedges were included primarily inlong-term borrowings of $8,526 million and $8,387 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and will continue to amortize into interest expense until the borrowings mature.
COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK. Our exposures to counterparties (including accrued interest) were $191 million and $188 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Counterparties' exposures to our derivative liability (including accrued interest), were $25 million and $77 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
NOTE 21. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES. In our Statement of Financial Position, we have assets of $154 million and $141 million and liabilities of $132 million and $131 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, in consolidated Variable Interest Entities (VIEs). These VIEs are primarily associated with a legacy business in Corporate & Other and have no features that could expose us to losses that would significantly exceed the difference between the consolidated assets and liabilities.
Our investments in unconsolidated VIEs were $8,234 million and $8,131 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Of these investments, $1,247 million and $1,280 million were owned for U.S. tax equity, comprising equity method investments primarily related to onshore renewable energy projects, at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. In addition, $6,796 million and $6,665 million were owned by our run-off insurance operations, primarily comprised of equity method investments at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The increase in investments in unconsolidated VIEs in our run-off insurance operations reflects strategic initiatives to invest in higher-yielding asset classes. Our maximum exposure to loss with respect to unconsolidated VIEs is increased by our commitments to make additional investments in these entities described in Note 22.
NOTE 22. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, PRODUCT WARRANTIES AND OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES
COMMITMENTS. As of March 31, 2025, we had total investment commitments of $3,581 million, of which $3,450 million are related to investments by our run-off insurance operations in investment securities and other assets. Included within these commitments are obligations to make investments in unconsolidated VIEs of $3,360 million. We also have unfunded commitments for U.S. tax equity of $631 million. Additionally, we have committed to provide financing assistance of $2,655 million for future customer acquisitions of aircraft equipped with our engines. We believe there is a low probability of utilization of this financing assistance based on the terms under which the financing would be provided. See Note 21 for further information regarding VIEs.
GUARANTEES. Credit support and indemnification agreements - Continuing Operations. Following the separation of GE Vernova, we have remaining performance and bank guarantees on behalf of GE Vernova. To support GE Vernova in selling products and services globally, we often entered into contracts on behalf of GE Vernova or issued parent company guarantees or trade finance instruments supporting the performance of what were subsidiary legal entities transacting directly with customers, in addition to providing similar credit support for non-customer related activities of GE Vernova (collectively, "GE Aerospace credit support"). Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement (SDA), GE Vernova is obligated to use reasonable best efforts to replace us as the guarantor on or terminate all such credit support instruments. Until such termination or replacement, in the event of non-fulfillment of contractual obligations by the relevant obligor(s), we could be obligated to make payments under the applicable instruments. Under the SDA, GE Vernova is obligated to reimburse and indemnify us for any such payments. Beginning in 2025, GE Vernova is paying us a quarterly fee based on amounts related to the GE Aerospace credit support. We have recorded a reserve of $110 million for our stand ready to perform obligation. Our maximum aggregate exposure under the GE Aerospace credit support cannot be reasonably estimated given the breadth of the portfolio across each of the GE Vernova businesses except for certain financial guarantees and trade finance instruments with a maximum exposure of approximately $363 million. The underlying obligations are predominantly customer contracts that GE Vernova performs in the normal course of its business. We have no known instances historically where payments or performance were required by us under parent company guarantees relating to GE Vernova customer contracts. In connection with the spin-off of GE Vernova, under terms of the SDA, Transition Service Agreement (TSA) and Tax Matters Agreement (TMA), we have an obligation to indemnify GE Vernova for certain of its severance costs, environmental matters and tax matters of $155 million, of which $104 million is reserved.
We also have remaining obligations under the TMA with GE HealthCare to indemnify them for certain tax costs and other indemnifications of $55 million, which are fully reserved.
In addition, we have $182 million of other indemnification commitments, including representations and warranties in sales of business assets, for which we recorded a liability of $54 million.
Credit support and indemnification agreements- Discontinued Operations. Following the separation of GE Vernova, we also have performance obligations related to GE Vernova nuclear decommissioning with a maximum aggregate exposure of $594 million for which we are fully indemnified. Also, under the SDA, TSA and TMA agreements we have obligations to indemnify GE Vernova for costs of certain environmental matters and tax matters of $34 million, which are fully reserved.
GE Aerospace also has obligations under the TMA to indemnify GE HealthCare for certain tax costs of $39 million, which are fully reserved.
We also have provided specific indemnities to other buyers of assets of our business that, in the aggregate, represent a maximum potential claim of $448 million with related reserves of $59 million.
2025 1Q FORM 10-Q 29
PRODUCT WARRANTIES. We provide for estimated product warranty expenses when we sell the related products. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, mostly historical claims experience, claims costs may differ from amounts provided. The liability for product warranties was $601 million and $592 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
LEGAL MATTERS. The following information supplements and amends the discussion of Legal Matters in Note 24 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024; refer to that discussion for information about previously reported legal matters that are not updated below. In the normal course of our business, we are involved from time to time in various arbitrations, class actions, commercial litigation, investigations and other legal, regulatory or governmental actions, including the significant matters described below that could have a material impact on our results of operations. In many proceedings, including the specific matters described below, it is inherently difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or even reasonably possible or to estimate the size or range of the possible loss, and accruals for legal matters are not recorded until a loss for a particular matter is considered probable and reasonably estimable. Given the nature of legal matters and the complexities involved, it is often difficult to predict and determine a meaningful estimate of loss or range of loss until we know, among other factors, the particular claims involved, the likelihood of success of our defenses to those claims, the damages or other relief sought, how discovery or other procedural considerations will affect the outcome, the settlement posture of other parties and other factors that may have a material effect on the outcome. For these matters, unless otherwise specified, we do not believe it is possible to provide a meaningful estimate of loss at this time. Moreover, it is not uncommon for legal matters to be resolved over many years, during which time relevant developments and new information must be continuously evaluated.
Shareholder and related lawsuits. Since November 2017, several putative shareholder class actions under the federal securities laws were filed against GE and certain affiliated individuals and consolidated into a single action currently pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the Hachem case, also referred to as the Sjunde AP-Fonden case). The complaint against defendants GE and current and former GE executive officers alleged 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 shareholders who acquired GE stock between February 27, 2013 and January 23, 2018. GE filed a motion to dismiss in December 2019. In January 2021, the court granted the motion to dismiss as to the majority of the claims. Specifically, the court dismissed all claims related to insurance reserves, as well as all claims related to accounting for long-term service agreements, with the exception of certain claims about historic disclosures related to factoring in the Power business that survive as to GE and its former CFO Jeffrey S. Bornstein. All other individual defendants have been dismissed from the case. In April 2022, the court granted the plaintiffs' motion for class certification for shareholders who acquired stock between February 26, 2016 and January 23, 2018. In September 2022, GE filed a motion for summary judgment on the plaintiffs' remaining claims, which the court denied in September 2023, except as to claims arising from disclosures made between November 2017 and January 2018. In April 2024, the court scheduled a trial date for November 2024. Consistent with the settlement in principle that we reported in October 2024, we signed an agreement with the plaintiffs in December 2024 to settle the matter for $362.5 million, which we have deposited into an escrow account controlled by plaintiffs’ counsel. Final settlement of the matter is subject to court approval. The court granted preliminary approval of the settlement in January 2025 and the final settlement hearing is scheduled for April 24, 2025.
Bank BPH. As previously reported, Bank BPH, along with other Polish banks, has been subject to ongoing litigation in Poland related to its portfolio of floating rate residential mortgage loans, with cases brought by individual borrowers seeking relief related to their foreign currency indexed or denominated mortgage loans in various courts throughout Poland. For a number of years, we have observed an increase in the total number of lawsuits being brought against Bank BPH and other banks in Poland by current and former borrowers, and we expect this to continue in future reporting periods. As previously reported, GE and Bank BPH approved the adoption of a settlement program and recorded an additional charge of $1,014 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The estimate of total losses for borrower litigation at Bank BPH was $2,449 million and $2,461 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. This estimate accounts for the costs associated with borrowers who we estimate will participate in the settlement program, as well as estimates for the results of litigation with other borrowers, which in either case can exceed the value of the current loan balance, and represents our best estimate of the total losses we expect to incur over time informed by experience since adopting the program. However, there are a number of factors that could affect the estimate in the future; refer to the disclosure about Bank BPH in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,2024.
ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS. Our operations involve or have involved the use, disposal and cleanup of substances regulated under environmental protection laws, including activities for a variety of matters related to GE businesses that have been discontinued or exited. We record reserves for obligations for ongoing and future environmental remediation activities, such as the Housatonic River cleanup, and for additional liabilities we expect to incur in connection with previously remediated sites, such as natural resource damages for the Hudson River where GE completed dredging in 2019. Additionally, like many other industrial companies, we and our subsidiaries are defendants in various lawsuits related to alleged exposure by workers and others to asbestos or other hazardous materials. Liabilities for environmental remediation and worker exposure claims exclude possible insurance recoveries. It is reasonably possible that our exposure will exceed amounts accrued. However, due to uncertainties about the status of laws, regulations, technology and information related to individual sites and lawsuits, such amounts are not reasonably estimable. Total reserves related to environmental remediation and worker exposure claims were $2,021 million and $2,003 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 respectively.

NOTE 23. SEGMENT INFORMATION & REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION. We havetwo reportable segments andthree operating segments. Operating segments are aggregated into a reportable segment if the operating segments have similar quantitative economic characteristics and if the operating segments are similar in the following qualitative characteristics: (i) nature of products and services; (ii) nature of production processes; (iii) type or class of customer for their products and services; (iv) methods used to distribute the products or provide services; and (v) if applicable, the nature of the regulatory environment. We have aggregated Defense & Systems and Propulsion & Additive Technology into one reportable segment, Defense & Propulsion Technologies, based on similarity in economic characteristics, other qualitative factors and the objectives and principles of ASC 280, Segment Reporting. This is consistent with how our chief operating decision maker (CODM) allocates resources and makes decisions. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, for a description of our segments, further information regarding our determination of segment profit for continuing operations and our allocations of corporate costs to our segments.
The Company does not report total assets by segment for internal or external reporting purposes as the Company’s CODM does not assess performance, make strategic decisions, or allocate resources based on assets.
