GE HealthCare Technologies Inc

As of June 30, 2024, our Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position was $2,015 million. We have historically generated positive cash flows from operating activities. Additionally, we have access to revolving credit facilities of $3,500 million in aggregate, described in detail in Note 8, “Borrowings.”

We believe that our existing balance of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, future cash generated from operating activities, access to capital markets, and existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet the needs of our current and ongoing operations, pay taxes due, service our existing debt, and fund investments in our business for at least the next 12 months.

Debt and Credit Facilities

As part of our capital structure, we have incurred debt. The servicing of this debt is supported by cash flows from our operations. As of June 30, 2024, we had $9,240 million of total debt compared to $9,442 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease in debt was mainly driven by a repayment of$150 million of the outstanding Term Loan Facility in the first quarter of 2024. As of June 30, 2024, there were $1,000 million of senior notes due in November 2024 recognized within Short-term borrowings in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

The weighted average interest rate for the Notes and our Credit Facilities for thesix months ended June 30, 2024 was 6.08%. We had no principal debt repayments on the Notes for thesix months ended June 30, 2024.

In addition to the Term Loan Facility, our credit facilities include a five-year senior unsecured revolving facility that provides borrowings of up to $2,500 million expiring in January 2028, and a 364-day senior unsecured revolving facility that provides borrowings of up to $1,000 million expiring in December 2024. As of June 30, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings on either of the two revolving facilities.

The Credit Facilities include various customary covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence of liens securing debt, the entry into certain fundamental change transactions by GE HealthCare, and the maximum permitted leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with the covenant requirements, including the maximum consolidated net leverage ratio.

Access to Capital and Credit Ratings

In connection with the Spin-Off, we accessed the capital markets and raised $10,250 million of debt by issuing$8,250 million of senior unsecured notes in November 2022, and completed a drawdown of the Term Loan Facility of$2,000 million in January 2023. In addition, we arranged $3,500 million of revolving credit facilities to further support our liquidity needs. We plan to continue to rely on capital markets, and we expect to have access to credit facilities to fund our operations. The cost and availability of debt financing will be influenced by our credit ratings and market conditions. Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings (“S&P”), and Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) currently issue ratings on our long-term debt. Our credit ratings as of July 24, 2024 are set forth in the table below.

We are disclosing our credit ratings to enhance the understanding of our sources of liquidity and the effects of our ratings on our costs of funds and access to liquidity. Our ratings may be subject to a revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.
