GE Aerospace (ISIN US3696043013) reported USD 14.1 billion in third-quarter 2026 revenue and USD 19.0 billion in orders. GE Aerospace released the figures on October 20, 2026, and raised its full-year guidance across the board. For investors, the key issue is whether services demand can keep converting the order surge into profit.
Third-quarter demand broadens
Orders increased 49 percent in the third quarter of 2026, while adjusted revenue rose 18 percent to USD 13.3 billion. Adjusted operating profit reached USD 3.0 billion, up 30 percent, and adjusted earnings per share rose 36 percent to USD 2.25, according to GE Aerospace.
Commercial Engines and Services led the quarter with 58 percent order growth and 21 percent revenue growth. Defense and Propulsion Technologies added 18 percent order growth and 7 percent revenue growth, giving the group a broader contribution beyond commercial aftermarket demand.
What does the guidance raise change?
The upgraded outlook puts operating profit at USD 10.9 billion-USD 11.0 billion for 2026, USD 0.30 billion above the prior midpoint. Adjusted earnings-per-share guidance also moved to USD 8.00-USD 8.10, while free cash flow guidance increased to USD 9.1 billion-USD 9.4 billion, according to the Yahoo Finance transcript dated October 20, 2026.
The quality of that upgrade rests on services execution. GE Aerospace said third-quarter commercial services orders rose 23 percent, while its commercial services backlog exceeded USD 170 billion. The company also pointed to a 22.5 percent adjusted operating profit margin for the quarter, up 220 basis points year over year.
