GE Aerospace logged higher earnings for the first quarter on revenue gains from its defense businesses and commercial engines and services unit.
The maker of jet engines posted a profit of $2.25 billion, compared with $1.99 billion in the same quarter a year earlier.
Stripping out one-time items, adjusted earnings were $1.49 a share. Analysts polled by FactSet had been expecting $1.27 a share.
Revenue jumped 11% to $9.94 billion, above analyst projections for $9.05 billion, according to FactSet.
The company said its commercial services segment drove up revenue. Total orders were up 12% from a year ago at $12.3 billion.
GE Aerospace is sticking to its guidance for adjusted revenue to rise in the low double-digit percentage range and for adjusted earnings to hit $5.10 to $5.45 a share this year.
The company said it is working to offset the impact of President Trump's tariff campaign by optimizing operations, focusing on costs and raising some prices.
