The company also has its Capital arm (a shell of its former size) and a Research/Digital segment. The company's corporate backlog is massive at a whopping $386 billion as of year-end.</p>\n<p>I will keep this as a forward-looking discussion (versus explaining the history of General Electric's restructuring). The important thing to know is that GE is working to improve in two key areas. These are the company's margins and its balance sheet. We can see above that the company's main businesses (industrial segments) combine for just a 3.4% margin. Its free cash flow margin is even worse at just 1%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44a06f334f6a2bc79c305b822ebbda23\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"343\"><span>source: General Electric Company</span></p>\n<p>Part of the company's struggles this year were due to the pandemic, as we can see the FCF margin in 2019 will match what the company is forecasting for 2021. The long-term goal of management is to get FCF margins up to high single digits.</p>\n<p>The company has set out on an agenda to streamline operations and cut costs/grow efficiencies, but what may actually help GE more is an evolving make-up of its backlog. Many of the products that General Electric sells are capital intensive, cost a lot to produce, and sell at very low margin. Some examples of this would include wind turbines, gas turbines, plane engines, etc.</p>\n<p>Let's look at a couple examples of General Electric's products and the revenue generation throughout their lifecycle:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00a73243cb1a016280bf8f9be16ee7ca\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"131\"></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7b61cb7a982f7d2533edc75e26ca083a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"289\"><span>source: General Electric Company</span></p>\n<p>We can see how in both cases there is an upfront creation of revenue from the sale of equipment, but that most of the revenue comes throughout the lifecycle of the product via service contracts.</p>\n<p>General Electric has an enormous base of installed equipment including:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>7,000+ gas turbines</li>\n <li>50,000 offshore/onshore wind turbines</li>\n <li>37,700 commercial grade aviation engines</li>\n <li>26,500 military grade aviation engines</li>\n <li>4 million healthcare installations</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The majority of GE's backlog ($386.5 billion) consists of service revenue.

The stock has rallied hard over the past 12 months. At more than $13 per share, the stock has appreciated 108%.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a29884bbde7e08e10ad94d6b77c2e334\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"382\"><span>source: YCharts</span></p>\n<p>We can see the expected pivot that revenues will make according to analyst estimates. Revenues will gain traction this year, with momentum beginning to drive growth of revenues beyond pre-pandemic levels next year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a675d27d996cf967b7aabee51c78057f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"258\"><span>source: Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>From an earnings standpoint, General Electric is forecasted to earn the following over the next few years:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>2021: $0.24 per share</li>\n <li>2022: $0.51 per share</li>\n <li>2023: $0.75 per share</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The rebound in revenues combined with expectedly higher margins produces strong earnings growth that will see earnings per share triple over the next few years. It's a little tricky to compare valuations to historical data because the company has changed so much over the past decade.</p>\n<p>If we used estimated earnings for this year, the stock is trading at an earnings multiple of approximately 56X. This is obviously overpriced, but we see the company's strong earnings growth that is expected. If we were to target a 20X multiple on the company, the 2023 estimate of $0.75 puts the stock at 18X.</p>\n<p>This is much more reasonable, but it's also three fiscal years away from now. In other words, the market has already priced in General Electric's near-term upside. I would like to see shares fall back under $10, otherwise investors should be prepared to wait for General Electric to grow into its valuation over several years.</p>\n<p><b>Wrapping Up</b></p>\n<p>General Electric has fallen from grace and has struggled to find its footing throughout the decade. Fortunately, the company finally seems to be on the right track, and I am impressed with the progress the business has made given its size and complexity. The market is right to be excited, but I just think the stock has gotten too far ahead of itself.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>General Electric: Whether You Should Be Buying The Revival</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nGeneral Electric: Whether You Should Be Buying The Revival\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-25 14:04 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4421081-general-electric-whether-you-should-be-buying-revival><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGeneral Electric continues to make progress in rebuilding the fundamentals of its business.\nHowever, its aviation exposure was a setback due to Covid.\nTrading at 18x 2023 estimated earnings, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4421081-general-electric-whether-you-should-be-buying-revival\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GE":"GE航空航天"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4421081-general-electric-whether-you-should-be-buying-revival","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1151656752","content_text":"Summary\n\nGeneral Electric continues to make progress in rebuilding the fundamentals of its business.\nHowever, its aviation exposure was a setback due to Covid.\nTrading at 18x 2023 estimated earnings, the stock is not a buy today despite the progress that General Electric is making.\n\nPhoto by Jetlinerimages/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nOne of the great industrial conglomerates of the world, General Electric Company(NYSE:GE)is known both for a myriad of products it sells to the world and the destruction of shareholder value that has occurred over the past decade.
