GEV · Forward model
Revenue by vertical, 20 quarters out
Model as of
Each segment is projected from its own operating driver, rolled up into consolidated cash flow, and discounted back to a fair value per share. The assumptions below are editable — change them and every number on this page moves with them.
BASIS. GE Vernova was spun out of General Electric on 2 April 2024, so it has only nine standalone reported quarters, 2024 Q2 through 2026 Q2, and that is exactly what this model uses. The Form 10 and the first 10-K also carry COMBINED CARVE-OUT financials for the pre-spin years. Those are filed figures, but they are a different basis - allocated corporate cost, no standalone capital structure, no standalone tax - and they are deliberately NOT spliced on here. data/companies/gev/series.json already starts at 2024 Q2 for the same reason, so the model page and the stock page sit on one basis end to end. A nine-quarter history is the correct answer for a two-year-old company; it has not been padded. SEGMENT REALIGNMENT. Effective 1 January 2026 GE Vernova moved certain business units between segments and recast 2025. Every quarter here is recorded AS FIRST REPORTED, one consistent rule applied to nine separate SEC-filed Exhibit 99.1 documents. The effect is measurable where both bases are visible and it is small: 2025 Q1 Power moves $4,423m to $4,449m and Electrification $1,879m to $1,840m; 2025 Q2 Power $4,758m to $4,785m and Electrification $2,201m to $2,162m. Wind is unchanged, consolidated revenue is unchanged, and the largest effect is 2.1% of the smaller segment. No recast exists for the 2024 quarters, so no alternative gives a single underlying basis across the whole series. The basis quarter, all guidance and the entire projection sit on the post-realignment basis. There was no realignment between 2024 and 2025: the 2025 releases reproduce the 2024 figures exactly as first filed. WHAT IS DISCLOSED AND WHAT IS NOT. All 27 segment revenue points are reported figures read from each quarter's own filing. The gas volume path is disclosed too - 20 GW of annual output in 2026, 24 GW in 2028, 30 GW in 2030 - as are the 2026 consolidated and per-segment guidance and the 22%/22%/6% segment margins in the 2028 outlook. The eliminations line is the only DERIVED history, marked estimated on every point: it is reported consolidated revenue minus the three reported segments, and it exists because GE Vernova reports segment revenue including intersegment sales. Everything forward-looking - price drift, margin glides, capex intensity, the 25% tax rate and the exit multiple - is assumed and labelled as such in the controls. WHAT IS NOT SPLIT. Power is not divided into gas equipment, gas services and nuclear, and Electrification is not divided into its product lines. The company discusses all of them in prose and even gives turbine unit counts, but publishes no quarterly revenue for any of them. Splitting on prose would invent history. ONE DELIBERATE DIVERGENCE FROM GUIDANCE. Management guides 2026 Wind segment EBITDA losses of about $400m; this model produces about $(0.8)bn. The guide implies a swing from the basis quarter's (13.6)% margin to roughly +5.5% in two quarters, which a monotone margin glide can only reproduce at a rate that would then overstate Wind for the rest of the horizon. The model is more conservative than management here, by roughly 0.8% of company revenue, and says so rather than tuning it away. NO CONSENSUS IS USED. GE Vernova publishes no adjusted EPS, so its GAAP diluted EPS cannot be compared with the analyst-adjusted consensus carried by data vendors. The gap is obvious one quarter back: for 2026 Q1 the vendor's own reported figure is $1.98 against an actual GAAP $17.44, because GAAP that quarter carried $4.5bn of Prolec GE M&A gains. Pairing those series would invent a surprise, so no consensus figure appears anywhere in this model.

What drives each segment
Power
Units × priceGas, nuclear, hydro and steam generation equipment plus the multi-decade service contracts on the installed fleet. Power is supply-constrained rather than demand-constrained: 116 GW of gas equipment sat under contract at 30 June 2026 against roughly 20 GW of annual turbine output, so the line is set by how fast GE Vernova can build, and management has dated that ramp to 2030.

Assumptions & reasoning
- Volume is the DISCLOSED ramp, not a fitted growth rate. Management states 20 GW of annual gas turbine output from the third quarter of 2026, 24 GW in 2028 and 30 GW in 2030; compounding 2.4% a quarter from 5.0 GW reproduces all three, summing to 24.5 GW across the four 2028 quarters against the stated 24 GW, and stopping at the 7.5 GW ceiling.
- Revenue per GW is a monetisation ratio, not a turbine selling price. It deliberately carries Gas Power services, Nuclear, Hydro and Steam as well as gas equipment, because those scale with the installed fleet the ramp is building. It is derived by deseasonalising the 2026 Q2 segment revenue of $5,477m by its own 0.9709 factor and dividing by 5.0 GW.
- The 3 GW of equipment SHIPPED in 2026 Q2 is a different measure from the 20 GW of annual OUTPUT in the ramp: the first is backlog converted to delivery in one quarter, the second is management's production run-rate for the year. The model uses the second and never mixes them.
- Power is kept whole. The release discusses Gas Power equipment, Gas Power services, Nuclear and aeroderivatives separately and even gives turbine unit counts, but publishes no quarterly revenue for any of them. Splitting the segment on prose alone would invent history.
Electrification
Growth pathGrid equipment - transformers, switchgear, HVDC and substation solutions - plus power conversion and storage, now including all of Prolec GE. Demand runs far ahead of delivery: a book-to-bill of about 1.7 in the basis quarter and equipment backlog up 69% year over year, with data centres the fastest-growing end market.

Assumptions & reasoning
- Prolec GE moved from a 50%-owned equity-method holding to full consolidation when GE Vernova bought the remaining half, completing on 2 February 2026. It is inside the 2026 Q1 and 2026 Q2 actuals and inside the guided $14.5-15.0bn range, so the basis level and the guidance agree and the acquisition must not be added again on top.
- This is why reported and organic growth diverge so widely: Electrification revenue rose 68% on a GAAP basis in the basis quarter but 29% organically. The model is anchored on the guided GAAP dollar range rather than on an organic rate, so the projection should be read against dollars, not against the organic figure.
- The Q1 seasonal factor is the least reliable number in this vertical. Prolec consolidated during 2026 Q1 and mechanically lifted that quarter, so the 2026 sequential read contradicts the 2025 one. The factor rests on the 2025 observation and the true Q1 trough is probably shallower than the one shown.
Wind
Growth pathOnshore and offshore wind turbines and their services. This is the segment the company is deliberately shrinking: orders fell 40% organically in the basis quarter, revenue is guided down low-double digits for 2026, and every reported quarter but one has lost money at the segment line.

Assumptions & reasoning
- This is the one place the model knowingly sits BELOW guidance. Management guides 2026 Wind segment EBITDA losses of about $400m, but the first half alone lost $657m, so the guide implies roughly +$257m of profit in the second half - a swing from the basis quarter's (13.6)% margin to about +5.5% in two quarters. A monotone glide can only reproduce that at a rate near 0.9, which would reach the 2028 terminal margin two years early and overstate Wind for the rest of the horizon.
- The 0.45 glide used here instead produces about $(0.8)bn of 2026 Wind segment EBITDA against the guided $(0.4)bn, and reaches the disclosed 6% margin during 2028 rather than in 2026. The model is therefore deliberately more conservative than management on this segment, by roughly 0.8% of company revenue.
- Wind carries the strongest seasonality of the three segments and the most convincing evidence for it: the first-quarter trough replicates almost exactly across both observable years, at 59.5% of the prior fourth quarter in 2025 and 60.5% in 2026.
Intersegment eliminations
Growth pathA negative reconciling line rather than a business. GE Vernova reports segment revenue INCLUDING intersegment sales, so the three segments over-sum consolidated revenue; this line carries the difference so the model's total equals reported revenue exactly in all nine quarters.

Assumptions & reasoning
- Every point on this line is DERIVED, not reported, and is marked estimated for that reason: it is reported consolidated revenue minus the sum of the three reported segments. GE Vernova discloses the input directly - intersegment sales were $44m in the basis quarter against $92m a year earlier - which is what this line is made of.
- The line ranged from $(23)m to $(162)m across the nine standalone quarters, under 1.5% of revenue in every one of them and under 0.4% in the last two. It carries no margin and no capex because corporate cost is handled once, in the corporate overhead assumption, and double-counting it here would understate EBITDA.

The production case as management states it
- Jul 22, 2026 We now expect to have at least 125 GW of gas equipment under contract by year-end 2026. To meet this demand, we remain on track to deliver 20 GW of annual gas turbine output in the third quarter of 2026, with 24 GW in 2028, and we are implementing actions to produce 30 GW in 2030 .
- Jan 28, 2026 Segment outlook is: • Power : High-teens organic revenue* growth CAGR and segment EBITDA margin of 22%.

| Terminal-year revenue | $70.19B |
| Terminal-year EBITDA | $13.49B |
| Exit multiple, on ebitda | 18.0x |
| Terminal value | $242.89B |

| Net cash | $10.27B |
| Equity value | $190.33B |
| Shares | 0.27B |
| Fair value per share | $704.93 |
| Against the deployed price of $898.53, as of | -22% |
An exit EV/EBITDA multiple on the terminal quarter, discounted at 9.5%. The multiple is by far the most sensitive input in this model: 85.7% of base-case enterprise value sits in the terminal value, so every 1x of exit multiple is worth $31.75 a share. The base case exits at 18x. That is well below the ~24x the tape implies - at $898.53 the market capitalisation is $242.6bn, enterprise value $232.3bn, and running the base case backwards the exit multiple that would justify today's price is 24.1x. It is also below the ~21x the market pays on GE Vernova's own 2028 outlook of $56bn of revenue at a 20% adjusted EBITDA margin. The bear case uses 13x, roughly where diversified electrical equipment trades once a cycle has been delivered; the bull case 22x, which assumes an electrification premium survives to 2030. The whole valuation argument is that range, not the revenue path: revenue is anchored to guidance and lands within 0.5% of it.
Read the other way round: at $898.53 the market is paying 24.1x terminal-year revenue, holding every other assumption on this page fixed. That is the number to argue about.

| 2026-09-01 | $704.93 | Initial model. Nine standalone quarters since the 2 April 2024 spin, no pre-spin carve-out splice. Power on a unit driver anchored to the disclosed 20/24/30 GW gas output ramp; Electrification and Wind on growth drivers calibrated to 2026 segment guidance; a derived eliminations line so the segments reconcile exactly to reported revenue. Base case reproduces FY2026 revenue at $46,226m against guidance of $45.5-$46.5bn. |
