Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

GE Healthcare Holding LLC (the “Company”) previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form 10, initially filed on October 11, 2022 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), relating to the distribution of at least 80.1% of the shares of the Company’s common stock by General Electric Company (“GE”) to holders of GE common stock on a pro rata basis (the “Spin-Off”). The Company will convert into a corporation and will be renamed GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. prior to the completion of the Spin-Off.

On December 8, 2022, the Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC. The Registration Statement includes a preliminary information statement that describes the Spin-Off and provides important information regarding the Company’s business and management. The final information statement, dated December 8, 2022 (the “Information Statement”), is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. GE has commenced mailing the Information Statement to holders of GE common stock.

As further described in the Information Statement, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, the Spin-Off is expected to be effective as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 3, 2023 (the “Distribution Date”) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions to the Spin-Off. Holders of GE common stock will be entitled to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for every three shares of GE common stock held on December 16, 2022, the record date for the distribution (“Record Date”).

Although the Company expects that a limited market, commonly known as a “when-issued” trading market, will develop as early as one trading day prior to the Record Date for the Spin-Off, the Company’s common stock is expected to begin trading “regular way” on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the ticker symbol “GEHC” on January 4, 2023, the first trading day after the Distribution Date.

The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
