WHY IS HP (HPQ) DOWN 3.7% SINCE LAST EARNINGS REPORT?


With a consistent performance showcasing the progress highly in the past, the company(HP) has fallen by 3.7% in the last earnings report. The metric has been improving with a decent percentage every year based on the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Since the expected revenue or sales has not been met in recent times on personal system, the printing business turns out to be the primary cause for the downfall.

The management considered the rising macro uncertainties and the price sensitivity as the factors that undermined the company’s high margin business on printing and has put share and supplies pricing in pressure.s

Since the online portals are developing explicitly in terms of sales of products, there is a behavioral change of the customers to buy them from online, which imposed a significant impact on the supplies share. The company expects a rise in the recent year if the high inventory and pricing issues don’t persist. The adverse fluctuations in currency is another cause for negative progress.

Though there is a positive impact on the hardware revenues, progress in unit share, and increase in the contractual offering, there was a fall in total supplies revenue that lead to an adverse negative impact on the printing business.

The market share becomes lower in the space where customers purchase online when compared to its share of conventional commercial re-sellers and in-store retailers.

Though there was a fall of 3%, the company’s overall stock has a decent VGM score. The company looks forward to correcting this issue in the next quarter of the fiscal year.
