Item 8.01 Other Events.

Baker Hughes Company (“Baker Hughes”, “the Company”, “we”, or “our”) and its main operating subsidiary, Baker Hughes Holdings LLC (“BHH LLC”), have reorganized to create two operating segments focused on different growth profiles and to simplify our operations to enhance profitability. Effective October 1, 2022, the two operating segments, which will also be our reportable segments, are: Oilfield Services & Equipment (“OFSE”) and Industrial & Energy Technology (“IET”). We previously operated the Company through four segments. Through this reorganization, we merged the Oilfield Services segment with the Oilfield Equipment segment to form the OFSE segment, and we merged the Turbomachinery & Process Solutions segment with the Digital Solutions segment to form the IET segment. The new organization will combine and integrate certain technologies, enhancing the portfolio of capabilities that support the emerging long-term growth opportunities in each of these segments. We believe the new structure will allow each segment to better adapt to the quickly changing energy markets, and by removing the product company layers, will upgrade a number of key operational processes across our businesses and enhance their economies of scale.

OFSE will operate through four product lines – Well Construction, Completions Intervention & Measurements, Production Solutions, and Subsea & Surface Pressure Systems. IET will operate through six product lines - Gas Technology Equipment and Gas Technology Services, collectively referred to as Gas Technology, and Condition Monitoring, Inspection, Pumps Valves & Gears, and PSI & Controls, collectively referred to as Industrial Technology.

Baker Hughes and BHH LLC have prepared unaudited historical consolidated financial information ("Financial Supplement") based on the new segment reporting structure and product lines. In addition, we have provided OFSE revenue by geographic region. Such information is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

This Financial Supplement includes non-GAAP measures. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and users of our financial information as they provide an alternate measurement of our performance and assist in assessing our capital adequacy and the level of return generated. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for reported results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies. Segment EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) is defined as segment operating income (loss) excluding segment depreciation & amortization. EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) is defined as operating income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with Baker Hughes’ and BHH LLC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2022. BHH LLC is a Securities and Exchange Commission registrant with separate filing requirements.
