    **ALEX:** Welcome to Beta Finch, your AI-powered earnings breakdown where we dive deep into quarterly results to help you understand what's really driving the markets. I'm Alex, and joining me as always is Jordan.

    **JORDAN:** Hey everyone! Today we're breaking down GE Vernova's absolutely explosive Q1 2026 results. And Alex, before we jump in, I know we need to mention—

    **ALEX:** Absolutely. This podcast is AI-generated content for educational and entertainment purposes only. Nothing we discuss should be considered investment advice. Always do your own research and consult a qualified financial advisor before making any investment decisions. Now Jordan, let's talk about these numbers because wow—GE Vernova just delivered what might be one of the most impressive quarters we've seen in the industrial space.

    **JORDAN:** Alex, where do I even start? Orders up 71% year-over-year to $18.3 billion, with a book-to-bill ratio of 2.0. That means for every dollar of revenue they recognized, they booked two dollars in new orders. Their backlog is now sitting at $163 billion—that's billion with a 'B'—and they're saying they'll hit $200 billion in backlog by 2027, a full year ahead of schedule.

    **ALEX:** The cash generation story here is just phenomenal. They generated $4.8 billion in free cash flow in just one quarter—that's more than their entire 2025 full-year free cash flow of $3.7 billion. What's driving this massive cash generation?

    **JORDAN:** It's really the working capital dynamics. When you're booking orders this aggressively, especially in long-cycle businesses like power generation, you're getting significant down payments upfront. They had $5.3 billion in working capital benefits, primarily from higher down payments on those Power and Electrification orders. It's like getting paid before you do most of the work—a beautiful business model when demand is this strong.

    **ALEX:** Let's break down the segments because each one tells a different story. Starting with Power—their bread and butter—revenue up 10%, but EBITDA margins expanded a massive 500 basis points to 16.3%.

    **JORDAN:** The Power segment is firing on all cylinders. They shipped 25 gas turbines in the quarter, up 32% year-over-year, and their pricing is getting significantly better. CEO Scott Strazik said their 2026 orders are priced 10-20% higher than Q4 2025 levels on a dollar-per-kilowatt basis. When you have three-year lead times and customers desperate for power generation capacity, you can command premium pricing.

    **ALEX:** And this isn't just traditional utility demand. About 20% of their 100 gigawatts under contract are directly supporting data centers. The AI boom is creating this massive secondary demand for power infrastructure that I don't think many investors fully appreciate yet.

    **JORDAN:** Exactly! And speaking of underappreciated, let's talk Electrification—this segment is becoming a monster. Orders up 86% year-over-year, and here's the kicker: their Q1 data center orders alone were $2.4 billion, which is more than their entire full-year 2025 data center business.

    **ALEX:** The Prolec acquisition is paying off big time. They bought the remaining 50% stake for $5.3 billion in February, and Prolec's backlog has grown 25% just since they announced the deal at Q3 earnings. That's incredible customer enthusiasm for the combined entity.

    **JORDAN:** What I love about the Electrification story is the portfolio breadth. They're not just selling transformers—they've got HVDC systems, substations, grid automation software. CFO Ken Parks mentioned they closed their first Energy Management System order, which combines power conversion, substation equipment, and grid software into an integrated solution for data centers.

    **ALEX:** The company is really positioning itself as the one-stop shop for electrification. Strazik gave this great example of a project where they're providing the gas turbine for power generation,

    # Beta Finch Podcast Script - GE Vernova Q4 2025 Earnings

    **ALEX:** Welcome to Beta Finch, your AI-powered earnings breakdown where we decode the latest corporate results so you don't have to. I'm Alex, and joining me as always is Jordan. Today we're diving into GE Vernova's fourth quarter 2025 earnings - and wow, what a quarter this was.

    **JORDAN:** Absolutely, Alex. But before we jump in, I need to mention that this podcast is AI-generated content for educational and entertainment purposes only. Nothing we discuss should be considered investment advice. Always do your own research and consult a qualified financial advisor before making any investment decisions.

    **ALEX:** Thanks Jordan. So GE Vernova - this is the power generation and electrical equipment spinoff from GE that's been really making waves since going public. Jordan, what jumped out at you first from these numbers?

    **JORDAN:** The scale is just incredible, Alex. We're talking about a $150 billion backlog - that's up 25% or $31 billion year-over-year. And they booked $59 billion in orders for the full year, up 34%. For context, their revenue was $38 billion, so they're booking orders at about 1.5 times their current revenue run rate.

    **ALEX:** That's a massive order book. And CEO Scott Strazik seemed particularly excited about their gas power business. Can you break down what's happening there?

    **JORDAN:** Gas power is absolutely on fire - no pun intended. They went from having 46 gigawatts under contract at the start of 2025 to 83 gigawatts by year-end. That's almost doubling their contracted capacity in a single year. And here's the kicker - they expect to hit 100 gigawatts by the end of 2026.

    **ALEX:** What's driving this demand surge?

    **JORDAN:** It's really the perfect storm of factors. You've got data centers consuming massive amounts of power, aging grid infrastructure, and the need for reliable baseload power as renewable intermittency creates challenges. Strazik mentioned they signed 6 gigawatts of new gas contracts just in the last three weeks of December alone.

    **ALEX:** And they're not just winning on volume - they're getting better pricing too, right?

    **JORDAN:** Exactly. This was one of the most interesting parts of the call. They added $8 billion in equipment backlog margin dollars in 2025 - that's more than the previous two years combined. In their Power segment specifically, they saw 11 percentage points of margin improvement in their equipment backlog. Strazik mentioned their current slot reservation agreements are pricing 10 to 20 points higher than their existing backlog.

    **ALEX:** That pricing power is impressive. Now, it wasn't all good news though. Their Wind segment continues to struggle, particularly with offshore projects.

    **JORDAN:** Yeah, the Wind segment is definitely the problem child. They had $600 million in losses for the year, which was worse than their $400 million expectation. The big issue was a U.S. government stop-work order on December 22nd that halted all offshore wind construction, including their Vineyard Wind project that was nearly complete.

    **ALEX:** That's got to be frustrating - being so close to finishing a project and then getting shut down by regulatory action.

    **JORDAN:** Absolutely. CFO Ken Parks said they only had 10 turbines left needing blades and 1 turbine left to install when the order came down. The good news is they got an injunction yesterday, so they might be able to resume work. But if they can't complete those remaining 11 turbines, it could impact 2026 revenue by about $250 million.

    **ALEX:** Let's talk about their Electrification business - that seems to be a real growth driver.

    **JORDAN:** This is probably the most exciting part of the story long-term. Electrification revenue grew 26% in 2025, and they're expecting it to hit $13.5 to $14 billion in 2026. To put that in perspective, this business was doing about $5 billion in revenue back in 2022. So we're talking about nearly tripli
