Director Compensation
Director Compensation The Compensation Committee recommends to the Board for approval compensation and benefits for non-employee directors. The Compensation Committee designed a compensation program structured to: •Fairly compensate directors for work required given the Company’s size and scope; •Align director interests with the long-term interests of stockholders; and •Maintain a simple and transparent structure that is easy for stockholders to understand. The Non-Employee Director Compensation and Benefits Plan outlines all aspects of our non-employee directors’ compensation and benefits. Annual compensation is paid to non-employee directors in a combination of cash and equity retainers. Cash retainers are paid after the end of each quarter of service and are prorated for partial years of service. The equity retainer is granted on the day of our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or for non-employee directors who join the Board on a date other than an Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the date on which the director becomes a member of the Board. The aggregate dollar value of equity-based and cash compensation granted or payable to any non-employee director will not exceed $750,000 during any calendar year. The Compensation Committee reviews non-employee director compensation every two years and makes recommendations for any program changes to the Board, as necessary. The review is informed by benchmarking data from our compensation peer group and advice from the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, Semler Brossy Consulting Group, LLC (“Semler Brossy”). In September 2024, the Compensation Committee conducted its biennial review. Based on the results, in December 2024 the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board approved an increase of $20,000 in the annual equity retainer to maintain market competitiveness, effective as of January 1, 2025. Non-employee directors received the following retainers and fees in 2025:

| Management Proposal No. 2 Approval of Our Named Executive Officers’ Compensation in an Advisory Vote | | What are you voting on? Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking stockholders to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our NEOs in 2025, as described in this proxy statement. We currently hold say-on-pay votes annually. The next say-on-pay vote will occur at our 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Why does the Board recommend a vote FOR the say-on-pay proposal? As described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis below, the Board believes our executive compensation program is designed to effectively align the interests of our executives, including our NEOs, with our stockholders. The Company’s compensation programs play a significant role in our ability to attract, retain, and motivate top talent to enable our strategies to create a world where healthcare has no limits. Furthermore, the Board believes the use of a mix of base salary and annual and long-term incentives, along with performance metrics tied to executing on our business strategies and priorities, will result in long-term value creation. Accordingly, the Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the following resolution: “RESOLVED, that the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and related information provided in this proxy statement, is hereby APPROVED.” | | | The Board recommends a vote FOR the say-on-pay proposal | |

Total Rewards Philosophy and Guiding Principles
| Business-Focused and Performance-Differentiated •We offer “at-risk” annual incentives that are aligned with our business strategies for the year •We offer “at-risk” long-term incentives that are aligned with long-term value creation for our stockholders •We design incentives with an effective link between pay and performance to drive accountability and ensure we win together with differentiated pay-for-performance from the GE HealthCare level to the individual level, reinforcing a culture of meritocracy that empowers participants to excel and reach their full potential in a high-performing and inclusive environment •We offer significant “at-risk” pay to our senior leadership while mitigating unnecessary and excessive risk-taking •Our total rewards programs have a deliberate focus on accelerating profitable growth | | Ownership-Oriented We empower an entrepreneurial spirit within our culture and align compensation with our stockholders’ interests by providing meaningful equity awards to eligible participants and maintaining robust policies that require significant stock ownership by our senior executives | | Competitive, Motivating, and Fair We provide total rewards programs that are competitive in the markets we compete in while taking into account a participant’s experience, performance, and contributions, and motivating our participants to successfully execute our business strategy, while being fair across our participants | | Simple and Transparent Our total rewards programs are intended to drive employee engagement and business success through simple and transparent plan designs |
Compensation Peer Group
Compensation Peer Group Our compensation programs are evaluated against a 15-company peer group within the broader medical device and medical technology spaces, representing organizations with which we compete for executive talent (the “Compensation Peer Group”). Annually, the Compensation Committee, with input from Semler Brossy, reviews the Compensation Peer Group to determine whether adjustments are warranted. In general, the assessment considers several peer characteristics including business type, revenue, and market capitalization compared to GE HealthCare. Following the annual review, and with advice from Semler Brossy, the Compensation Committee determined that the existing 15-company peer group remained an appropriate comparator group for our 2025 compensation programs. For setting 2025 individual total direct compensation, the Compensation Committee primarily referenced benchmarking data from the full 15-company Compensation Peer Group. Where appropriate for certain individual roles, the Compensation Committee used the 13 U.S.-based peers (excluding Siemens Healthineers AG and Koninklijke Philips N.V.) and other survey sources.

Annual Bonus Plan
Annual Bonus Plan For 2025, we provided annual cash incentive opportunities to our executives, including our NEOs, under the Bonus Plan. The performance metrics and targets for awards under the Bonus Plan were set at the beginning of the year and designed to drive Company and business segment performance, based on financial, operational, and strategic priorities. How 2025 Bonuses for Our NEOs Were Determined. All NEOs are eligible to participate in the Bonus Plan. Target bonus percentages for our NEOs are reviewed and approved annually by the Compensation Committee. For 2025, the Compensation Committee increased Mr. Arduini’s target bonus percentage from 150% to 155%, effective April 1, 2025. There were no other changes to the target bonus percentages for the other NEOs, all of whom have a target bonus of 100% of base salary. In the first quarter of 2025, the Compensation Committee approved financial metrics and targets at the corporate and segment levels, as well as metrics and targets for the strategic initiatives modifier. For executives in roles overseeing all of GE HealthCare, including Messrs. Arduini, Saccaro, Kass-Hout, and Jimenez, financial metrics were fully tied to corporate-level performance goals. For Ms. Bankes, financial metrics were tied in part to corporate-level performance goals with a meaningful weighting (40%) and to PCS segment performance goals with the majority of the weighting (60%). As shown below, bonuses paid to our NEOs are determined formulaically based on each NEO’s base salary, target bonus percentage, applicable corporate and segment financial performance, strategic initiatives modifier, and an individual performance multiplier.

Annual Bonus Plan
How 2025 Bonus Plan Metrics Were Selected. The financial metrics used in the 2025 Bonus Plan were selected to align with GE HealthCare’s strategic pillars of Growth Acceleration and Business Optimization. At the corporate level, the plan focuses on three key financial metrics: •GE HealthCare Organic revenue* (weighted 50%) •GE HealthCare Adjusted EBIT* (weighted 30%) •GE HealthCare Free cash flow* (weighted 20%) For the PCS segment, the three key financial metrics selected were: •PCS Organic revenue* (weighted 50%) •PCS Adjusted EBIT* (weighted 30%) •PCS Inventory Turns (weighted 20%) * Non-GAAP financial measure. See the Appendix for additional information and definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Annual Bonus Plan
To further align compensation with GE HealthCare’s strategic priorities, the 2025 Bonus Plan includes a strategic initiatives modifier. The modifier focuses on the following two key areas: •New Product Introduction (“NPI”) Vitality – Reflecting our commitment to innovation under our Precision Care pillar, this metric measures the percentage of Organic revenue generated from products introduced within the past three years. Beginning with the 2025 performance year, we modified the measurement period from five quarters to three years for better alignment with product lifecycles and competitive market practices. •Safety – Supporting our foundational priority of People, Patients, and Culture, this metric focuses on prevention of high‑risk incidents by measuring the rate of serious work‑related injuries and illnesses (“Serious I&I,” as defined by ASTM International E2920‑19). Beginning in 2025, we modified our safety metric definition from Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor recordable I&I rate to the Serious I&I rate to emphasize prevention and mitigation of the most significant risks. The strategic initiatives modifier may increase or decrease financial metric results by up to +/- 10 percentage points (+/- 5 percentage points for each initiative), based on achievement against these goals. The Compensation Committee selected both the financial and strategic initiatives metrics to incentivize strong performance across the Company’s key drivers of long-term value creation and reflect how GE HealthCare is managed at the corporate and segment levels. Finally, each NEO was assessed against individual goals tied to their roles and responsibilities, and an individual performance multiplier between 0% and 150% was assigned. Final awards are capped at 200%, inclusive of the individual performance multipliers. How 2025 Bonus Plan Targets and Performance Levels Were Determined. In March 2025, the Compensation Committee established targets and performance levels for each financial metric that were designed to be rigorous yet realistic and informed by the Company’s 2025 budget. The Compensation Committee also established targets for the two metrics included in the strategic initiatives modifier, aligning them with the Company’s strategy, business priorities, and internal forecast for the year. Assuming threshold performance goals were attained, our NEOs were eligible to receive between 50% and 200% of their target bonus award, corresponding to threshold and maximum performance, respectively. The target, threshold, and maximum performance levels for each financial metric were set with reference to the annual corporate and segment budgets, and approved by the Compensation Committee. Under the 2025 Bonus Plan design, failure to meet the threshold performance level for any individual metric would result in no payout for that metric. If threshold performance is not met across all metrics, no bonus payout overall is awarded. How Corporate Level Performance Was Determined. As shown below, in the first quarter of 2026, the Compensation Committee certified the 2025 Bonus Plan performance results, which determine payout levels for each financial and strategic initiative metric at the corporate level.

How NEO Bonus Payouts Were Determined. As shown below, in the first quarter of 2026, the Compensation Committee approved 2025 Bonus Plan payouts for our NEOs, which were determined based on the achievement of performance goals at the corporate, and, for Ms. Bankes, segment level and individual performance multipliers. For Mr. Arduini, the Compensation Committee approved an individual performance multiplier of 100%. Mr. Arduini had no role in the determination of his bonus. For Messrs. Saccaro, Kass-Hout, and Jimenez and Ms. Bankes, individual performance multipliers of 100%, 100%, 100%, and 115%, respectively, were recommended by our CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee. For information on the factors considered by the Committee in approving these multipliers, see details of individual performance for all NEOs in “Compensation Actions for 2025” beginning on page 43.

Long-Term Incentive Program
Long-Term Incentive Program GE HealthCare’s 2025 Long-Term Incentive (“LTI”) Program focuses on our Growth Acceleration and Business Optimization strategic pillars and includes a portfolio of three equity vehicles: PSUs, Options, and RSUs. The awards are designed to motivate and incentivize executives to create sustainable long-term value, support the attraction and retention of top talent, and align executive and stockholder interests through a meaningful ownership stake in the Company. How LTI Award Mix and Amounts Were Determined. Annual LTI awards represent the largest portion of each NEO’s annual total target compensation. The Compensation Committee considers various factors for determining the size and mix of annual equity awards for our NEOs, including our long-term business objectives, market practices, and individual performance. As illustrated below, in 2025, once the total annual LTI award amount for each NEO was determined by the Compensation Committee, 50% was granted in PSUs, 25% in Options, and 25% in RSUs.

PSUs
PSUs How Annual PSUs Work. Our PSUs are designed to focus executives on the Company’s long-term financial and operating goals. PSU payouts are earned only if GE HealthCare achieves specified performance levels over the performance period. The Compensation Committee chooses performance metrics it believes align with the Company’s long-term strategic objectives and contribute to the creation of long-term stockholder value. The Compensation Committee then monitors the Company’s performance against the performance metrics over a three-year performance period and certifies the final levels of achievement following the end of the period. The certified PSU achievement levels determine the percentage of the target number of PSUs under the award that executives earn. The Compensation Committee establishes targets and performance levels that are designed to be rigorous but realistic and informed by the Company’s long-term financial goals. The target, threshold, and maximum performance levels for each performance metric are set with reference to our annual budgets and long-term strategic plan established by senior management and approved by the Board. PSUs vest at the end of the three-year performance period, contingent upon satisfaction of the performance criteria and subject to the NEO’s continued employment through the vesting date (with exceptions for certain termination events). Beginning with 2025 awards, if a grantee becomes retirement-eligible while still employed, any PSUs held for at least one year continue to vest under the original vesting schedule whether the grantee retires or remains employed (subject to satisfaction of performance criteria). For awards granted prior to 2025, PSUs held for at least one year vest immediately upon a grantee becoming retirement-eligible while still employed (subject to satisfaction of performance criteria).
2025 PSUs
2025 PSUs How Metrics and Targets for PSUs Were Selected. The 2025 performance metrics and targets for PSUs granted to our NEOs were approved by the Compensation Committee in March 2025. The Compensation Committee chose Organic revenue (weighted 50%) and Cumulative Adjusted EPS (weighted 50%) as financial metrics to incentivize and focus executives on long-term profitable growth. The PSUs are then subject to modification of +/-20% based on three-year relative TSR versus our Compensation Peer Group. The Organic revenue target was derived from a three-year target growth rate established at the beginning of the 2025–2027 performance period. Achievement is assessed using 2027 Organic revenue, which is the endpoint of the three-year target growth rate. This approach aligns with how management communicates with and incentivizes executives to drive sustained revenue growth over the full performance period. The Cumulative Adjusted EPS achievement is assessed using the sum of Adjusted EPS for the years 2025, 2026, and 2027. Results will be interpolated for performance between threshold, target, and maximum with potential final payouts between 50% and 200% of target PSUs granted for threshold and maximum performance, respectively, inclusive of the TSR modifier. Failure to achieve threshold on either financial metric would result in no payout for that metric, and failure to achieve threshold on both financial metrics would result in no payout overall. The financial metrics are tied to corporate performance, which aligns all our leaders who receive PSUs with the same performance targets, in contrast to the metrics used in the Bonus Plan, which for GE HealthCare segment employees are assessed based in part on segment-level performance. See the Appendix for additional information and definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures used in the 2025 PSUs.
2025 Options and RSUs
2025 Options and RSUs The Compensation Committee believes that Options and RSUs effectively focus executives on delivering long-term value to stockholders. Options have value only to the extent that our stock price rises between the grant date and the exercise date. RSUs reward and are intended to help retain executives by offering them the opportunity to receive GE HealthCare stock if they remain employed by the Company through the date the vesting restrictions lapse (with exceptions for certain termination events). Options and RSUs align NEOs’ interests with those of stockholders as their realized pay is dependent upon the Company’s stock price. Vesting of 2025 Stock Options and RSUs. The annual Options and RSUs granted to our NEOs in 2025 will vest over three and one-half years in three substantially equal installments on the 18-month, 30-month, and 42-month anniversary of the grant date, subject to the NEO’s continued employment through each such vesting date (with exceptions for certain termination events). Beginning with 2025 awards, if a grantee becomes retirement-eligible while still employed, any Options and RSUs held for at least one year continue to vest under the original vesting schedule whether the grantee retires or remains employed. For awards granted prior to 2025, any Options and RSUs held for at least one year vest immediately upon a grantee becoming retirement-eligible while still employed. Options generally expire 10 years from the grant date.

Annual PSU Award Results
Annual PSU Award Results 2023 Annual PSUs. In 2023, PSUs were granted to Messrs. Arduini, Saccaro, Kass-Hout, and Jimenez with a three-year performance period spanning 2023-2025. Ms. Bankes was not employed by the Company at the time the 2023 PSU awards were granted and therefore did not receive an award. The performance metrics approved by the Compensation Committee in February 2023 were as follows: •2025 Organic Revenue – derived from a three-year target growth rate established at the beginning of the 2023–2025 performance period with achievement assessed using the 2025 Organic revenue endpoint associated with the three-year growth rate (50% weight); •2023-2025 Cumulative Adjusted EBIT – measured over the three-year performance period (50% weight); and •Relative TSR Modifier – modifies the combined financial metric results by up to +/-20% based on the Company’s total shareholder return performance relative to the Compensation Peer Group over the three-year period. All determinations regarding performance are made solely by the Compensation Committee in accordance with the customary accounting and financial reporting practices used by the Company for external reporting. The Compensation Committee retains discretion to adjust for any recapitalization, split-up, spinoff, reorganization, restructuring, or other similar corporate transaction, as determined by the Compensation Committee. This allows the Compensation Committee to use its authority to make tailored adjustments when warranted to prevent dilution or enlargement of intended benefits. As external trade conditions evolved with changes in tariff policies throughout 2025, management developed and the Compensation Committee reviewed a framework to assess the aggregate impact on performance metrics used for performance-based incentive compensation. This framework was designed to assess Company performance, including operational execution of mitigation efforts undertaken in 2025 to strengthen the Company’s resilience in a dynamic global environment, and whether incentive compensation payouts would result in undue penalties or windfalls for incentive plan participants. The Compensation Committee applied this framework to assess both the positive and negative external impacts. In the first quarter of 2026, the Compensation Committee certified the performance results for the 2023 PSU awards and determined the payout levels for each metric, as shown in the table below. In certifying results, the Compensation Committee evaluated the impact of the unanticipated external trade‑related developments using the Company’s assessment framework. The Compensation Committee determined that the external market developments in 2025 had adversely affected the Company’s ability to reach the performance metrics set in February 2023 and excluded the net impact of those developments from the Cumulative Adjusted EBIT results, modestly increasing the payout from 90% to 95%. This adjustment was tailored to align payouts with the performance objectives established in 2023, and to reward management for moving with speed and agility to mitigate the impact of tariffs while delivering strong commercial execution, making continued progress on our innovation pipeline, and delivering on the Company’s strategy centered on precision care, growth acceleration, and business optimization over the performance period. Based on these certified results and adjustments, each NEO who received a 2023 PSU award earned 95% of the target number of PSUs granted to them in March 2023.

Other LTI Awards
Other LTI Awards 2025 New-Hire Award. In connection with attracting and retaining top executive talent, from time to time the Compensation Committee approves one-time equity awards in consideration of the value of equity that candidates forfeit from prior employers. In 2025, the Compensation Committee approved a New-Hire RSU award for Ms. Bankes with a target value of $2,200,000 in recognition of equity awards forfeited from her former employer. The award has a graded vesting schedule with 50% vesting on each of the first and second anniversary of the grant date, subject to her continued employment through each vesting date (with exceptions for certain termination events, including prorated vesting for termination without cause or for good reason). See details of the exceptions to vesting in “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” beginning on page 57.
Equity Grant Practices
Equity Grant Practices Management has developed an annual and off-cycle equity grant schedule designed to avoid granting equity close in time to the release of the Company’s quarterly earnings. We also do not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information on the basis of equity grant dates, or vice versa. Annual equity awards are typically approved by the Compensation Committee at its regularly-scheduled meeting in late January or early February to be granted in early March. The Compensation Committee may also approve equity awards throughout the year for various reasons, including recruitment of new hires, promotions, and retention and/or recognition of top talent. These off-cycle grants are made on regularly scheduled quarterly dates. We may also make equity grants at other times under certain circumstances. The Compensation Committee has also delegated authority to the Company’s CEO to grant equity awards to employees who are neither under the Compensation Committee’s purview nor direct reports to the CEO, subject to certain limitations on grant value and number of shares granted, as established by the Compensation Committee. These equity awards generally follow the same granting schedules as described above. In response to Item 402(x) of Regulation S-K, we note that in 2025, (1) no NEOs were awarded Options with an effective grant date during any period beginning four business days before the filing or furnishing of a Form 10-Q, Form 10-K, or Form 8-K that disclosed material nonpublic information, and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such reports, and (2) we did not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

Severance and Change in Control Arrangements
Severance and Change in Control Arrangements Severance and Change in Control Plan for Leadership Team. All the NEOs participate in the GE HealthCare US Severance and Change in Control Plan for CEO and Leadership Team (the “Executive Severance Plan”). In the event of a qualifying termination of employment, the Executive Severance Plan provides for a lump sum cash severance payment equal to the sum of base salary and target annual bonus multiplied by 2.0 for the CEO and multiplied by 1.0 for the other NEOs. In addition, benefits continuation and outplacement services would be provided for 24 months for the CEO and 12 months for the other NEOs.
Severance and Change in Control Arrangements
| GE HEALTHCARE 2026 PROXY STATEMENT | 47 |
Severance and Change in Control Arrangements
Under the Executive Severance Plan, a qualifying termination occurs when the Compensation Committee determines in its sole discretion that a: •NEO’s position has been eliminated (and not replaced); •NEO’s employment has been terminated without “cause;” or •NEO terminates their employment for “good reason.” A NEO may also have a qualifying termination if within 24 months after a change in control, as defined in the Executive Severance Plan, his or her employment is terminated due to a position elimination, by the employer without “cause,” or by the NEO for “good reason.” In such event, the Executive Severance Plan provides for a lump sum cash severance benefit to the CEO equal to 36 months of base salary, plus 2.99 times the CEO’s target annual bonus. For the other NEOs, the lump sum cash severance benefit is equal to 24 months of base salary, plus two times the NEO’s target annual bonus. In addition, benefits continuation and outplacement services are provided for 36 months for the CEO and for 24 months for the other NEOs. The Executive Severance Plan does not vary the terms of equity awards, and all outstanding equity awards will be treated as provided under the terms of the applicable plans and equity award agreements in the event of a qualifying termination. Under the terms of the LTI Program, in the case of a change in control, as defined in the LTI Program, where the acquirer does not assume or continue outstanding equity award or issue substitute awards, immediately prior to such change in control all such outstanding awards would become exercisable and vested, and for PSUs, grantees would have the right to payment based on target or actual performance through a date determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion. If such change in control changes the number of outstanding shares of the Company, the Compensation Committee has discretion to make appropriate and equitable adjustments to equity awards, accelerate vesting consistent with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, and/or cancel accelerated awards not exercised within a time period prescribed by the Compensation Committee. The Executive Severance Plan does not vary how a pro-rata bonus, if any, will be calculated or paid under the Bonus Plan for the year in which a qualifying termination occurs. Any payment of benefits under the Executive Severance Plan is subject to the execution of a release and waiver of claims acceptable to the Company, including, where legally permissible, non-competition, non-solicitation, and non-disparagement obligations. See “Executive Officer Cash Severance Policy” on page 23 for information on a Board-approved policy governing certain cash severance benefits provided to Executive Officers.

Summary Compensation Table
(1)For Mr. Kass-Hout, the 2025 amount reflects one-time cash awards under the Company’s Inventor Recognition & Awards Policy in recognition of certain patent filings and publications. For Ms. Bankes, the amount reflects a one-time cash sign-on bonus pursuant to her offer letter. (2)Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of RSUs and PSUs pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 718, disregarding the effect of estimated forfeitures. The value is reflective of the amount the Company expects to expense for accounting purposes over the awards’ vesting schedules and does not correspond to the actual values that NEOs will realize from the award. For 2025, RSUs include annual RSUs awarded under the LTI Program and New-Hire RSUs awarded to Ms. Bankes in connection with her hire ($2,199,986). For 2025, PSU awards include annual PSUs awarded under the LTI Program. The aggregate grant date fair value of the PSUs is calculated based on the most probable outcome of the performance conditions as of the grant date. The aggregate grant date fair value of these 2025 awards assuming maximum performance would be as follows: Mr. Arduini ($14,499,876 ), Mr. Saccaro ($3,899,918), Mr. Kass-Hout ($3,999,870), Mr. Jimenez ($3,499,948 ), and Ms. Bankes ($1,999,921). For information on the assumptions used in valuing a particular year’s grant, see Note 16 on Share-Based Compensation in our 2025 Form 10-K. The 2025 PSUs are measured on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model with the following assumptions:

(4)Amounts earned under the Bonus Plan. See the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” on page 52 for additional information on the Bonus Plan. (5)Year-over-year changes in pension value generally are driven by changes in actuarial pension assumptions, increases in age, any additional service, and compensation, as applicable. In 2025, there was a net increase in pension value for Mr. Arduini ($6,131) due to the decrease in the discount rate and a change to the mortality assumption. See “Pension Benefits” beginning on page 56 for additional information on these benefits. (6)We provide executives with other benefits that are market-competitive and contribute to attraction and retention of top talent.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table
(1)Number of Outstanding Shares for awards granted prior to 2023 reflect the post-Spin-Off conversion ratio. The conversion ratio was equal to the closing share price of GE immediately prior to the Spin-Off on January 3, 2023 ($60.18), divided by the volume weighted average share price of GE HealthCare’s stock on the first trading day following the Spin-Off, January 4, 2023, which resulted in an equity conversion ratio of 1.412087. Option exercise prices were also adjusted for the conversion ratio. No conversion was required for awards granted after the Spin-Off. (2)The market value of RSUs is calculated by multiplying the closing price of GE HealthCare stock as of December 31, 2025 ($82.02) (the last trading day for the year) by the number of shares underlying each award. In February 2026, the Compensation Committee certified the 2023 Annual PSU performance as 90% of target. The Committee then determined to adjust performance, modestly increasing the payout from 90% to 95% of target. As a result, the 2023 PSUs awards that vested on February 12, 2026 are equal to: Mr. Arduini (74,908), Mr. Saccaro (22,610), Mr. Kass-Hout (23,340), and Mr. Jimenez (22,078). The performance metrics and methodology for calculating payouts are described under “2023 Annual PSUs” on page 41. (3)The market value of PSUs is calculated by multiplying the closing price of GE HealthCare stock as of December 31, 2025 ($82.02) (the last trading day for the year) by the number of shares underlying each award. With respect to the PSUs granted to NEOs on March 1, 2024, this value assumes satisfaction of the target-level payout based on Company performance through December 31, 2025, which has exceeded the threshold level of performance. With respect to the PSUs granted to NEOs on March 27, 2025 and PSUs granted to Ms. Bankes on May 15, 2025, this value assumes satisfaction of the maximum-level payout based on Company performance through December 31, 2025, which has exceeded the target level of performance. Final payouts will be based on certified performance for the full three-year performance period in the first quarter following the end of the performance period. (4)Annual Options and RSUs granted since the Spin-Off vest over three and one-half years in three substantially equal installments on the 18-month, 30-month, and 42-month anniversary of the grant date. Ms. Bankes’s annual Options and RSUs granted on May 15, 2025 will vest in three substantially equal installments on September 1, 2026, September 1, 2027, and September 1, 2028. One-third of Mr. Saccaro’s annual Options and RSUs granted in 2023 vested on September 1, 2024, one-third vested on September 1, 2025, and the remaining Options and RSUs will vest on September 1, 2026. All time vesting is subject to the NEO’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date (with exceptions for certain termination events). For the Founders Options and RSUs, 50% vested on February 1, 2025 and 50% vested on February 1, 2026. For the New-Hire RSUs granted to Ms. Bankes, 50% will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and 50% will vest on the second anniversary of the grant date, subject to her continued employment through each such vesting date (with exceptions for certain termination events, including prorated vesting for termination without cause or for good reason). See details of the exceptions to vesting in “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” beginning on page 57. PSUs vest after the end of the three-year performance period, contingent upon satisfaction of the performance criteria, and subject to the NEO’s continued employment through such vesting date (with exceptions for certain termination events).
Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table
Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table The following table shows the number of shares the NEOs acquired and the values they realized upon exercising Options and/or the vesting of RSUs and PSUs during 2025. During the year, all NEOs other than Ms. Bankes had RSUs that vested; none of the NEOs exercised Options. Mr. Arduini earned PSUs from his 2022 New-Hire PSUs granted by GE in 2022. Values are shown before payment of any applicable withholding taxes or brokerage commissions.

Pension Benefits
Pension Benefits We provide retirement benefits to certain eligible employees based in the U.S. The GE HealthCare Pension Plan (“U.S. Pension Plan”) is a funded, tax-qualified plan.
Pension Benefits Table
Pension Benefits Table The table below shows the present value of the accumulated benefit as of December 31, 2025 for the NEOs under the U.S. Pension Plan for Mr. Arduini, as calculated based on the assumptions described below. Although the SEC rules require us to show this present value, the NEOs are not entitled to receive these amounts in a lump sum. Mr. Arduini received no payment under the U.S. Pension Plan in 2025.

Pension Benefits Table
(1)The accumulated benefit is based on years of service and earnings (base salary and bonus) considered by the plans for the period through December 31, 2025. It also includes the value of contributions made by the NEOs throughout their careers. For purposes of calculating the present value, it is assumed that Mr. Arduini took his benefit on December 31, 2025 as he has reached age 60, the age at which he could retire without any reduction in benefits under the U.S. Pension Plan. It is also assumed that benefits are payable under the available forms of annuity. The assumptions for U.S. beneficiaries are consistent with the assumptions for the U.S. Pension Plan, including the statutory discount rate assumption of 5.4%, and the postretirement mortality assumption used for present value calculations is the Pri-2012 Healthy Retiree mortality table adjusted by experience and projected by MP-2021 converging into the 2021 SSA long-term proxy rates. (2)For Mr. Arduini, there is no service cost under the GE HealthCare Pension Plan since the accruals have stopped. (3)Mr. Arduini’s pension benefits reflect his accrued benefits from his prior tenure with GE. Mr. Arduini’s credited service is limited to 15 years under the U.S. Pension Plan, from his prior tenure with GE before future accruals stopped effective January 1, 2021.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control As described in “Severance and Change in Control Arrangements” beginning on page 47, the Executive Severance Plan provides for benefits in the event of certain qualifying terminations of employment. Potential Termination Payments. Below we describe and quantify certain compensation that would have been payable under existing compensation plans and arrangements had any of our NEO’s employment terminated on December 31, 2025. For this hypothetical calculation, we have used each NEO’s compensation and service levels as of December 31, 2025, and, where applicable, GE HealthCare’s closing stock price on December 31, 2025. For the equity calculations, we show the intrinsic value of equity awards that would have vested or become exercisable under each termination scenario below as of December 31, 2025. Intrinsic value is based upon the Company’s stock price (minus the exercise price in the case of Options, with negative values for out-of-the-money Options shown as zero). Amounts shown assume the achievement of all applicable performance objectives at the target level. Our NEOs generally are not entitled to benefits if they leave voluntarily or are terminated for cause. Since many factors (e.g., the time of year when the event occurs, GE HealthCare’s stock price, NEO’s age, etc.) could affect the nature and amount of benefits NEOs could potentially receive, amounts paid or distributed upon a future termination may differ from those shown in the tables below. The amounts described below are in addition to benefits generally available to salaried employees, such as distributions available under defined contribution retirement programs.

Pension Benefits. “Pension Benefits” beginning on page 56 describes the general terms of each pension plan in which our NEOs participate, the years of credited service, and the present value of their accumulated pension benefit (assuming payment begins, as noted above). The table below shows the pension benefits that would have become payable if the NEO had died, become disabled, voluntarily terminated their employment, or retired as of December 31, 2025. Mr. Arduini is the only NEO eligible for pension benefits. In the event of death before retirement, because Mr. Arduini has more than 15 years of service accrued during his prior tenure with GE, his surviving spouse may receive either an annuity, as if he had retired and elected the spousal 50% joint and survivor annuity option prior to death, or an immediate lump-sum payment based on five years of pension distributions, in each case based upon the accrued benefit. In the event a disability occurs before retirement, Mr. Arduini could receive an annuity payment of accrued benefits under his plan.

Lump Sum Upon Death. Mr. Arduini is not eligible for a lump sum payment. Annual Benefits Upon Death. The annual amount for Mr. Arduini is payable for the life of the surviving spouse under his plan. Annual Benefits Upon Disability. For Mr. Arduini, the annual amount includes the 50% joint and survivor annuity under his plan. Annual Benefits Upon Voluntary Termination. Mr. Arduini is over age 60 and eligible to commence upon termination with the annual amount shown, which includes the 50% joint and survivor annuity. Annual Benefits Upon Retirement. Mr. Arduini is over age 60 and eligible to retire with the annual amount shown, which includes the 50% joint and survivor annuity. Deferred Compensation. The NEOs are entitled to receive the vested amount in their Restoration Plan account in the event of a termination of employment. Between the termination event and the date that distributions are made, these accounts would continue to be adjusted to reflect hypothetical investment gains and losses. Therefore, amounts received by NEOs would differ from those shown in the “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table” on page 56. Vested amounts under the Restoration Plan are paid in a lump sum, generally in July of the year following the year of the participant’s separation from service after execution of a release.

2025 CEO Pay Ratio
2025 CEO Pay Ratio As required under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (“Dodd-Frank Act”) and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K (“Item 402(u)”), below is information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of the individual identified in accordance with the process outlined below as our median paid employee excluding our CEO (the “Median Employee”) and the annual total compensation of our CEO, Mr. Arduini. Pay Ratio. Our Median Employee earned $76,951 in total compensation for 2025. The total 2025 compensation for Mr. Arduini as reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” beginning on page 50 was $18,562,794. Based upon total compensation for 2025, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of our Median Employee was calculated to be approximately 241 to 1. How we Identified the Median Employee. In accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we began with a decision to use the same median employee included in our last proxy statement because there has been no material change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we believe would significantly impact the pay ratio disclosure. To identify our median employee, we started with our global employment records as of December 1, 2023, and determined we employed 53,401 full-time, part-time, temporary, and seasonal employees (excluding the CEO) (“Global Employees”) as of that date, including 16,771 in the U.S., and 36,630 outside of the U.S. Under the de minimis exemption rule of Item 402(u), we excluded 1,836, or approximately 3.4% of our Global Employees from 34 countries(1), resulting in a total of 51,565 Global Employees used to identify our median employee. All employees in these 34 countries were excluded. We then used the consistently applied compensation measure of annual base salary plus target bonus, to calculate compensation across the remaining Global Employee population to identify the median employee. We believe this compensation measure reasonably reflects the annual compensation of our Global Employees. Base salary and target bonuses were not annualized for any employees, and all currencies were converted to U.S. dollars using applicable conversion rates consistent with our accounting practices. How we Calculated the CEO Pay Ratio. The Median Employee’s 2025 annual total compensation was calculated using the Summary Compensation Table methodology for calculating total compensation under Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K and compared with total compensation of Mr. Arduini, as detailed in the Summary Compensation Table above, to arrive at the CEO pay ratio. (1)The following countries and corresponding number of employees were excluded from our pay ratio calculation: Mozambique (1), Luxembourg (2), Ukraine (3), Estonia (4), Slovakia (4), Pakistan (5), Nepal (6), Iraq (9), Serbia (9), Côte d’Ivoire (14), Bulgaria (17), Jordan (20), Morocco (21), Peru (26), Czechia (28), Kazakhstan (35), New Zealand (39), Bangladesh (40), Tunisia (48), Kenya (58), Nigeria (61), Philippines (69), Chile (70), Malaysia (86), Vietnam (86), Portugal (88), Romania (96), Argentina (109), Thailand (117), Belgium (118), South Africa (118), Switzerland (132), Algeria (141), and Greece (156).

Pay Versus Performance
Pay Versus Performance As required under Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, and in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between compensation actually paid to our company’s principal executive officer (“PEO”) and the other NEOs and Company performance. In this section we refer to compensation actually paid (“CAP”) and other terms used in the applicable SEC rules; the calculations and analysis presented below in accordance with those rules do not necessarily reflect our approach to aligning executive compensation with performance.

Pay Versus Performance
(1)CAP to our PEO and the average CAP to our non-PEO NEOs reflect adjustments from total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”). The assumptions used to calculate the values for RSUs, PSUs, and Options included in the calculation of CAP did not differ materially from those used to calculate the grant date fair value for such awards. A Monte Carlo simulation model was used to calculate the fair value for PSUs as of the applicable year-end measurement date. A Black-Scholes value was used for Options as of the applicable year-end or vesting date(s), determined using the same methodology used to determine grant date fair value, except that (1) the closing stock price on the applicable reevaluation date was used as the current market price and (2) a reduced expected life was used, given applicable time lapse since grant date. The calculation of CAP for the PEO and Non-PEO NEOs for 2025 is shown in the table below:

(2)The dollar amounts reported represent the average of amounts reported for our NEOs as a group (excluding our CEO) in the “Total” column of the SCT in each applicable year. The names of each of the NEOs included for these purposes in each applicable year are as follows: (1) for 2025, Messrs. Saccaro, Kass-Hout, and Jimenez and Ms. Bankes, (2) for 2024, Messrs. Saccaro, Kass-Hout, Jimenez, and Rott, (3) for 2023, Messrs. Saccaro, Kass-Hout, Jimenez, Makela, and Zodl, and (4) for 2022, Messrs. Zodl, Jimenez, and Makela and Ms. Larson.

See “Compensation Peer Group” on page 36 for more information. (5)Reflects Net income as reported in each of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022. (6)For details on Organic revenue* for 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022, see Item 7 in each of our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022. (7)As noted in the Summary Compensation Table, charitable matching contributions made on behalf of NEOs in 2024 and 2023 have been added for completeness. Specifically, a matching gift of $250 made by the GE HealthCare Foundation based on Mr. Saccaro’s charitable contributions has been included for the 2024 amounts, and a matching gift of $3,350 made by the Company based on Mr. Jimenez’s charitable contributions has been included for 2023 amounts. (8)We became an independent, public company effective January 3, 2023, but were required to report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act effective as of December 8, 2022. Because we were a subsidiary of GE during 2022, CAP for our NEOs was largely driven by GE’s stock price and did not bear a close relationship to our Net income or Organic revenue growth* for 2022. The Company did not have a TSR in 2022. * Non-GAAP financial measure. See the Appendix for additional information and definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures.
