General Electric is looking to raise up to $3 billion in sale of majority-owned Baker Hughes shares, resulting in a reduction of the U.S industrial conglomerate’s stake in the oilfield services provider to less than 50%, Baker Hughes said on Tuesday.
Shares of Baker Hughes, in which GE owned an about 50.4% stake as of June 30, fell 3.7% to $23.20 in after hours trading, while GE’s were marginally up at $9.15.
