GE Aerospace (GE) Stock Analysis: Inside the 93% Surge Driven by Commercial and Defense Strength — and Smart Trading Strategies
GE Aerospace: From Conglomerate to Focused Powerhouse
Descended from the storied General Electric Company founded by Thomas Edison in 1892, GE Aerospace emerged as a focused pure-play following a systematic series of spinoffs between 2016 and 2024. The company separated healthcare (Lantheus), renewable energy (NextEra Energy), and appliances, before completing its transformation into a dedicated aerospace and defense powerhouse. This simplification proved extraordinarily fortuitous, as global aircraft engine demand reached historic levels in 2025.
GE Aerospace continues to soar in 2025, with its stock up 93.66% from the April low of $159.36 to $308.95 by October’s close. The company’s dual focus on Commercial Engines & Services (CES) and Defense & Propulsion Technologies (DPT)—which grew 27% and 26% year-over-year in Q3 2025—has positioned it as a dominant force in both aviation and defense markets. Through its joint venture with Safran (CFM International), GE powers nearly 75% of the world’s narrowbody aircraft, securing a long-term revenue moat.
The Power of Recurring Revenue
Roughly 70% of GE Aerospace’s income comes from high-margin aftermarket services—maintenance, repair, and parts sales for engines that operate for over 40 years. This structure ensures decades of predictable cash flow, even when new engine orders fluctuate.
2025 Milestones Driving the Rally
After bottoming in April amid supply concerns, GE Aerospace reported Q1 revenue of $9.9B (+11% YoY) and EPS of $1.49, beating forecasts. Orders surged 12% to $12.3B. The introduction of its FLIGHT DECK digital platform improved manufacturing efficiency and supply chain resilience.
The company accelerated in Q2 with $11.02B in revenue (+21%), EPS of $1.66, and raised full-year guidance. Momentum continued into Q3, where revenue reached a record $12.18B (+36%) and EPS jumped 44% YoY, driving shares to an all-time high of $316.67 on October 29.
