GE: "This quarter we delivered Industrial segment profit growth. We continue to execute on operational priorities within our control: achieving our cost-out goals, maintaining a very strong cash position, reducing the size of GE Capital, and returning substantial cash to shareholders. Our overall framework for the year is unchanged," Jeff Immelt, Chairman and CEO. Source: Company statement, 19-Jul-2013.
