Item 8.01. Other Events.

On June 18, 2021, General Electric Company (“GE”) announced that it will proceed with the 1-for-8 reverse stock split, proportionate reduction in the authorized common stock and reduction in par value per share from $0.06 to $0.01 (collectively, the “reverse stock split”) previously approved by its shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders on May 4, 2021. GE plans to file an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to effectuate the reverse stock split, which is expected to be effective after the close of trading on July 30, 2021, and GE common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on August 2, 2021.

Attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein is a press release dated June 18, 2021 issued by GE announcing the reverse stock split.

(d) Exhibits


104    The cover page from this Current Report on Form 8-K, formatted in Inline XBRL.

This document contains “forward-looking statements”—that is, statements related to future, not past, events. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such plans, estimates or expectations include, among others, the risk factors as detailed from time to time in GE’s reports filed with the SEC, including GE’s annual reports on Forms 10-K, periodic quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, periodic current reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed with the SEC. The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive.
