Operating earnings, which excludes pension costs, remained flat at 36 cents a share. Stripping out items such as restructuring expenses and other charges, the adjusted earnings stood at 40 cents a share.<\/p>\n<p>Revenue for the quarter slipped 1.5% to $35.73 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Margin improved by 120 basis points. Mr. Immelt said that the Company slashed $1 billion in costs thus far this year.<\/p>\n<p>Revenue from the industrial segment, which focuses on wide ranging industries such as energy infrastructure, aviation, increased 2.5% to $25.81 billion. Profit rose 11% in the industrial business segment from the year-ago quarter with six of its seven business areas showing growth. Meanwhile, revenue from GE Capital dipped 5.4% to $10.67 billion, but profit climbed 13%.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"nr_popular_placeholder\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/ge-q3-revenue-slips-1-5\/47993\" data-title=\"GE Q3 Revenue slips 1.5%\"><\/div>\n<p><script id=\"mNCC\" language=\"javascript\">  medianet_width='600';  medianet_height= '250';  medianet_crid='814932888';  <\/script>  <script id=\"mNSC\" src=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20131022051653js_\/http:\/\/contextual.media.net\/nmedianet.js?cid=8CUT71M67\" language=\"javascript\"><\/script> <\/p>\n<p><!-- AddThis Button BEGIN --><\/p>\n<div class=\"addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style addthis_32x32_style\">\n<a class=\"addthis_button_preferred_1\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"addthis_button_preferred_2\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"addthis_button_preferred_3\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"addthis_button_preferred_4\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"addthis_button_compact\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"addthis_counter addthis_bubble_style\"><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var addthis_config = {\"data_track_addressbar\":true};<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/s7.addthis.com\/js\/250\/addthis_widget.js#pubid=pennystocksfinder\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- AddThis Button END --><\/p>\n<p>More Posts by this author<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/stocks-end-mixed-as-investors-remain-cautious-ahead-of-nonfarm-payrolls-data\/48040\"><br \/>\nStocks End Mixed as Investors Remain Cautious Ahead of Nonfarm Payrolls Data<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/gold-prices-steady-silver-prices-rise-sharply\/48034\"><br \/>\nGold Prices Steady; Silver Prices Rise Sharply<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/stocks-mixed-in-mid-day-trading-27\/48029\"><br \/>\nStocks Mixed in Mid-Day Trading<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/forex-market-update-dollar-index-rises-as-market-anticipates-strong-non-farm-payrolls-report\/48027\"><br \/>\nForex Market Update: Dollar Index Rises as Market Anticipates Strong Non-Farm Payrolls Report<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/stocks-trading-mixed-2\/48024\"><br \/>\nStocks Trading Mixed<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/gold-prices-steady-silver-prices-gain-2\/48018\"><br \/>\nGold Prices Steady; Silver Prices Gain<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/stock-futures-point-to-flat-start\/48016\"><br \/>\nStock Futures Point to Flat Start<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<table style=\"border:none;margin:0;\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:5px;vertical-align:top;\" valign=\"top\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20131022051653im_\/http:\/\/www2.thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock-market-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/userphoto\/5.jpg\" alt=\"edliston\" width=\"125\" height=\"125\" class=\"photo\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:5px;vertical-align:top;\" valign=\"top\">\n<div style=\"font-size:11pt;\"><b>Post Written By: Ed Liston <\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:10pt;\">\n<p>Ed Liston is a senior contributing editor at TheStockMarketWatch.com.
