GE: "The diversity and scale of our portfolio enabled the company to perform well despite a volatile and slow growth economy. We delivered USD0.51 of earnings per share with strong execution in Power, Aviation and Healthcare that offset challenging environments in Oil & Gas and Transportation. We expect strong organic growth in the second half of the year and reaffirm our 2016 operating framework," Jeff Immelt, Chairman and CEO. Source: Company statement, 22-Jul-2016.
