Segment Operations
COMMERCIAL ENGINES & SERVICES. In the first quarter of 2026, demand for commercial air travel grew with departures up 1.7%, with Middle East departures decreasing in March. We are in frequent communication with our airline, airframe and maintenance, overhaul and repair (MRO) customers about the outlook for commercial air travel, new aircraft production, fleet retirements and after-market services, including shop visit and spare parts demand.
In the first quarter, we announced significant new deals with several major customers. United Airlines has selected more than 300 GEnx engines to power their new Boeing 787 Dreamliners. American Airlines announced an agreement that their future deliveries of Airbus A321neo aircraft will continue to be powered by the CFM LEAP-1A engine. Delta has selected GEnx engines to power 30 new Boeing 787-10s with options for 30 more aircraft. Ryanair signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for a long-term material services agreement to support Ryanair’s entire fleet of about 2,000 CFM56 and LEAP engines powering its Boeing 737 aircraft.
Total engineering investments, both company and partner-funded, increased compared to prior year. In the first quarter, together with the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore and Airbus, we established the world’s first airport testbed for RISE technologies, focused on Open Fan. Internal shop visit revenue grew in the first quarter and total engine deliveries and LEAP engine deliveries increased primarily due to improved material supply. We are investing in our manufacturing and overhaul facilities and continue to strengthen our external global MRO network to support LEAP aftermarket demand by adding Iberia as the seventh Premier MRO and expanding Delta TechOps capabilities for both LEAP 1-A and LEAP 1-B engines. We are also deploying engineering and supply chain resources to increase production, expand capacity and strengthen yield.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue was up $2.3 billion, or 34%, and profit was up $0.4 billion, or 23%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Revenue increased due to internal shop visit volume and workscopes, increased spare parts volume, increased install engine deliveries and pricing.
Profit increased primarily due to internal shop visit volume and workscopes, increased spare parts volume, price and a lower unfavorable change in estimated profitability on long-term service agreements, primarily driven by the absence of charges. In the first quarter of 2026, we recorded an unfavorable change in estimated profitability on long-term service agreements of less than $0.1 billion, including a $0.1 billion reversal of a majority of the tariff-related charge in the first quarter of 2025. These increases were partially offset by the impact of higher install engine deliveries and higher growth investment.

As of March 31, 2026, RPO increased $16.6 billion, or 10%, from December 31, 2025, as a result of contract modifications and engines contracted under long-term service agreements that have now been put into service.
DEFENSE & PROPULSION TECHNOLOGIES. Our results in the first quarter of 2026 reflect domestic and international government defense departments’ focus on modernizing and scaling their forces while maintaining flight operations, driving services demand. A key underlying driver of our business is government funding, as most of the revenue in Defense & Systems is derived from funding that flows through the U.S. Department of War budget or equivalent international budgets.
In the first quarter of 2026, GE Aerospace was awarded a NAVAIR contract to supply T408-GE-400 engines for the U.S. Marine Corps' Sikorsky CH-53K King Stallion helicopter. GE Aerospace also announced a contract award from Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) to continue integrating the GE Aerospace's F404 engine into Türkiye's jet trainer Hurjet.
