About HP

HP is a behemoth in the PC and printing markets. It has focused on these markets since it exited IT infrastructure in 2015 with the split from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. HP focuses on the commercial market, but maintains sales of consumer devices and printers. The firm has a broad and global customer base, with only one-third of sales coming from the US. HP completely outsources manufacturing and relies heavily on channel partners for its sales and marketing.

Bulls say / Bears say

HP’s third-quarter revenue rose 12.5%, extending its run of growth, and it raised its full-year EPS and free cash flow forecasts. This points to solid near-term execution despite a difficult cost backdrop. (HP)
Personal Systems revenue grew 18% in the third quarter, with commercial sales up 22%, while HP said it gained share in premium products. Rising adoption of AI PCs and higher-value devices could support growth even if unit volumes remain subdued. (HP)
HP generated $1.6 billion of free cash flow in the third quarter and raised its full-year forecast to $3.0–$3.2 billion. It also returned $0.6 billion to shareholders through dividends and buybacks, supporting the income and capital-return case. (HP)
PC unit shipments fell 16% in the third quarter, while rising memory costs outpaced price increases and squeezed Personal Systems margins. HP expects further margin pressure in the fourth quarter, with recovery only in fiscal 2027. (Reuters)
Printing remains a drag: third-quarter revenue fell 2%, supplies revenue declined 3% and total printer hardware units dropped 7%. Persistent weakness in this segment could weigh on results even if PCs continue to grow. (HP)
HP has not provided fiscal 2027 financial guidance and said its preliminary planning assumption is for industry PC unit volumes to fall by roughly mid-single digits in calendar 2027. That leaves investors with limited visibility on growth and margins after the current year. (SEC)
