GE Vernova Fiscal Q4 2025
GE Vernova (GEV) closed the fourth quarter of 2025 with several notable updates. The company reported zero fatalities, reinforcing its continued emphasis on safety.
GE Vernova’s Q4 results showed a major beat, with EPS of 13.39 versus 2.56 expected and 1.73 last year, and revenue of $11B exceeding both the $10.23B forecast and the prior year’s $10.56B.

Outlook

For 2026, the company now anticipates higher revenue of $44–$45 billion, stronger profit margins, and increased free cash flow.
Power is expected to grow solidly, Wind will see lower revenue and continued losses, and Electrification will benefit from added Prolec GE revenue.
