Exhibit 99.1 2019 Barclays CEO Energy-Power Conference Lorenzo Simonelli Chairman & CEO September 3, 2019 Confidential. Not to be copied, distributed, or reproduced without prior approval.


 
This presentation (and oral statements made regarding the subjects of this release) may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (each a “forward-looking statement”). The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “ensure,” “expect,” “if,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “foresee,” “forecasts,” “predict,” “outlook,” “aim,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “potential,” “would,” “may,” “probable,” “likely,” and similar expressions, and the negative thereof, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There are many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are also affected by the risk factors described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2018 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2019 and those set forth from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The documents are available through the Company’s website at: www.investors.bhge.com or through the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering and Analysis Retrieval (“EDGAR”) system at: www.sec.gov. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement. The Company presents its financial results in accordance with GAAP which includes the results of Baker Hughes and GE Oil & Gas from the transaction closing date of July 3, 2017. However, management believes that using additional non-GAAP measures will enhance the evaluation of the profitability of the Company and its ongoing operations. See Exhibit 99.1 in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 31, 2019 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. 2 © 2019 Baker Hughes, a GE company - All rights reserved
