RBC Capital analyst, Deane Dray,reiterated his Outperform rating on shares of General Electric (NYSE: GE) and raised the price target to $13.00 (from $12.00) after the CEO, Larry Culp, hosted a highly anticipated Outlook Call to unveil his 2019 guidance framework and preliminary targets for 2020-2021. The company committed to realistic targets for the 2019 “reset year”, with assurances of
a meaningful FCF ramp in 2020/2021 driven by industrial. The company also re-committed to its targets for <2.5x industrial net debt/EBITDA and <4x GE Capital debt/equity which the analyst thinks can be achieved by 2020.

The analyst stated "Positives included line-of-sight on a significant recovery in industrial FCF in 2020-2021, reiterated deleveraging targets, as-expected Power update, and continued strength in
Aviation. GE’s turnaround may be a “game of inches”, but we believe that Mr. Culp’s leadership measures up to the task ahead".
