General Electric is expected to report first-quarter earnings before the market opens on Tuesday.

Analysts and shareholders will be looking closely at GE's industrial free cash flow a metric that many use to judge the health of the once-great conglomerate. Free cash flow is a financial term defined as money left over after a company pays for operating expenses and capital spending and is often used as a gauge of efficiency

While GE industrial free cash flow was $4.5 billion last year, CEO Larry Culp warned investors in March that the company would see between flat to negative $2 billion in free cash flow in 2019.

Here's what Wall Street expects:

• EPS: 9 cents a share, according to Refinitiv.
• Revenue: $27 billion, according to Refinitiv.

GE's quarterly reports are typically released at about 6:30 a.m. ET.
