•	The consolidated income tax rate was 1% and 12% for the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

•	The second quarter 2017 consolidated tax rate reflects a 104% tax rate on $0.2 billion of pre-tax loss at GE Capital and a 13% tax rate on $1.7 billion of pre-tax income at GE.

•	The second quarter 2016 consolidated tax rate reflects a 27% tax rate on $0.6 billion of pre-tax loss at GE Capital and a 14% tax rate on $4.4 billion of pre-tax income at GE.

•	The consolidated tax provision includes $0.2 billion and $0.6 billion for GE (excluding GE Capital) for the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

•

Consolidated income tax expense was insignificant in the second quarter of 2017 and $0.5 billion for the second quarter of 2016. The decrease in tax expense is primarily due to the decrease in pre-tax income taxed at above the average tax rate primarily from the non-repeat of the Appliances disposition and a larger benefit from global activities, partially offset by a smaller adjustment in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016 to bring the tax rate in-line with the lower projected full-year rate and the non-repeat of deductible stock loss.

---

•	The consolidated tax rate was 1% in the first six months of 2017 compared to 7% in the first six months of 2016.

•	The consolidated tax provision includes $0.4 billion and $0.8 billion for GE (excluding GE Capital) for the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

•

Consolidated income tax expense was insignificant for the first six months of 2017 compared to $0.3 billion for the first six months of 2016. The decrease in tax expense is primarily due to the decrease in pre-tax income taxed at above the average tax rate primarily from the non-repeat of the Appliances disposition and a larger benefit from global activities. This decrease was partially offset by the adjustment to increase the 2017 year-to-date rate to be in-line with the higher projected full-year rate compared to the decrease in the 2016 year-to-date rate to be in-line with the lower projected full-year rate and the non-repeat of deductible stock loss.

•	Assets of businesses held for sale increased $2.4 billion, primarily due to the classification of our Industrial Solutions business, within our Energy Connections & Lighting segment, as held for sale in the first quarter of 2017. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

•	Assets of discontinued operations decreased $7.0 billion, primarily due to the disposition of businesses at GE Capital. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
