HP Inc.’s fiscal year 2023 decline in net revenue was driven by **multiple factors**. These include **demand softness** in both the Personal Systems and Printing segments—where reduced unit volumes and competitive pricing led to lower revenues—as well as **foreign currency fluctuations** (impacting about **65%** of revenue) that adversely affected overall results. Additionally, **lower average selling prices (ASPs)**, unfavorable mix shifts, and **macroeconomic challenges** such as inflation, geopolitical conflicts, and market uncertainty collectively contributed to the decline.  **[0000047217-23-000100_hpq-20231031.htm:67]** **[0000047217-23-000100_hpq-20231031.htm:64]** **[0000047217-23-000100_hpq-20231031.htm:58]** **[0000047217-23-000100_hpq-20231031.htm:22]** 

What factors contributed to the sharp decline in FY 2023 Net Revenue?

The low **Net Earnings** in Q1 2023 were primarily due to a mix of significant revenue declines and increased expenses. **Net revenue** fell by **18.8%** year-over-year—from **$17.0 billion** in Q1 2022 to **$13.8 billion** in Q1 2023—due to soft demand, macroeconomic challenges, and tighter corporate budgets.  **[HPQ_3230478_3]** **[0000047217-23-000015_hp13123exhibit991q123.htm:0]**  At the same time, HP Inc. saw substantial increases in costs such as **restructuring and other charges** (rising from **$68 million** to **$141 million**), **acquisition and divestiture charges** (from **$20 million** to **$84 million**), and **amortization of intangible assets** (from **$52 million** to **$85 million**). In addition, **net interest and other expenses** surged from **$32 million** to **$181 million**, which further contributed to the lower net earnings despite a lower tax provision.  **[0000047217-23-000015_hp13123exhibit991q123.htm:5]** 

Why were Net Earnings so low in Q1 2023?

HP Inc.'s dramatic turnaround in Q4 2023 was driven by a combination of **improved revenue and cost management**, enhanced **gross margins**, higher **operating profit**, and rigorous **cost savings initiatives**. Despite net revenue declining by 6% to **$13.8 billion**, the company improved its gross margin by **3.4 percentage points** thanks to lower component and logistics costs, which helped flip the GAAP net earnings to approximately **$1.0 billion** compared to a loss in the previous period. Additionally, non‐GAAP operating profit grew by **11.5%** to **$1.2 billion**, and the significant EPS improvement—from a loss of **$(0.02)** to **$0.97**—reflected operational efficiencies and robust cost reduction measures, as well as the exceeding of targeted cost savings by reducing structural expenses and investing in key growth areas.  **[HPQ_3367866_4]** **[0000047217-23-000091_hp103123exhibit991q423.htm:1]** **[0000047217-23-000091_hp103123exhibit991q423.htm:0]** 

What drove the dramatic turnaround in Q4 2023 Net Earnings?

The tax benefit in Q2 2023 was unusually high **primarily due to the tax effects of HP’s internal reorganization**. In that quarter, HP recorded significant net income tax benefits, including **$691 million** related to internal reorganization, along with additional benefits from restructuring charges and acquisition and divestiture charges, which together far outweighed the tax charges during that period.  **[0000047217-23-000038_hpq-20230430.htm:17]** **[0000047217-23-000038_hpq-20230430.htm:6]** **[0000047217-23-000038_hpq-20230430.htm:50]** 

Why was the tax benefit unusually high in Q2 2023?

The significant increase in **Interest and Other, Net expenses** in Q1 2023 was driven by multiple factors. **Higher interest expense on borrowings** was the primary contributor, with expenses rising to **$143 million** compared to **$61 million** in Q1 2022, due to both an increase in the amount of debt outstanding and higher interest rates. Additionally, there was a **$8 million loss on the extinguishment of debt** in Q1 2023, whereas no such loss occurred in the prior year. The increase was further impacted by a reduction in **non-operating retirement-related credits** (down to **$11 million** from **$36 million**) and an increase in **other net losses** (rising to **$41 million** from **$7 million**), all of which together contributed to the overall rise in expenses.  **[0000047217-23-000019_hpq-20230131.htm:17]** **[0000047217-23-000019_hpq-20230131.htm:24]** **[0000047217-23-000019_hpq-20230131.htm:45]**

The surge in **cash and cash equivalents** in Q3 2022 was driven by several factors. **HP Inc.** generated strong operating cash flows with **$394 million** from operations due to improved working capital dynamics, such as lower inventory levels and better collections of receivables.  **[0000047217-22-000047_hp073122exhibit991q322.htm:7]** **[0000047217-22-000054_hpq-20220731.htm:57]**  Additionally, the company raised **$2,026 million** through debt issuance, which substantially boosted cash inflows, even though this was partially offset by **$1,029 million** spent on share repurchases and **$255 million** in dividends.  **[0000047217-22-000047_hp073122exhibit991q322.htm:7]**  Furthermore, modest cash outflows of **$211 million** occurred in investing activities, and some positive timing impacts from delayed collections also contributed to the increase.  **[HPQ_748048_19]** 

What drove the surge in cash in Q3 2022?

HP Inc.'s short-term borrowings dropped significantly in Q4 2022 as the **Notes payable and short-term borrowings** fell sharply from **$1,106 million** to **$218 million**. The documents do not offer specific reasons for this reduction; however, such changes are commonly linked to factors like **debt repayment**, **changes in financing strategy**, or **shifts in working capital management**.  **[0000047217-22-000068_hpq-20221031.htm:93]** 

Why did short-term borrowings drop significantly in Q4 2022?

The marked increase in long-term debt by Q4 2022 was primarily driven by the issuance of **$4.0 billion** in unsecured senior debt and an additional **$2.0 billion** offering of senior unsecured notes in June 2022. This buildup was partially offset by the redemption of maturing notes and **$0.9 billion** in commercial paper payments, but the overall net effect was a significant increase in the long-term debt balance.  **[0000047217-22-000068_hpq-20221031.htm:76]** **[0000047217-22-000068_hpq-20221031.htm:140]** 

What contributed to the marked increase in long-term debt by Q4 2022?

The decline in **total current assets** in Q4 2022 was primarily driven by several factors. **Cash and Cash Equivalents** decreased significantly from **$4,299 million** to **$3,145 million**, largely due to cash outflows for business acquisitions (e.g., the Poly acquisition) and share repurchases.  **[0000047217-22-000068_hpq-20221031.htm:93]** **[0000047217-22-000061_hp103122exhibit991q422.htm:9]** **[HPQ_1505821_6]**  In addition, **Accounts Receivable** dropped from **$5,511 million** to **$4,546 million**, reflecting lower revenue and adjustments in operating assets.  **[0000047217-22-000068_hpq-20221031.htm:93]** **[0000047217-22-000061_hp103122exhibit991q422.htm:9]**  A decrease in **Inventory** from **$7,930 million** to **$7,595 million**, attributed to improved supply chain management and backlog clearance, also contributed to the overall decline, despite a marginal increase in **Other Current Assets** from **$4,430 million** to **$4,515 million** which provided only a minimal offset.  **[0000047217-22-000068_hpq-20221031.htm:93]** **[0000047217-22-000061_hp103122exhibit991q422.htm:9]** **[HPQ_1505821_5]**

The relatively low Operating Cash Flow of **$121 million** in Q1 2024 was primarily driven by several factors. Despite an improvement over Q1 2023, the modest amount was due to a combination of **favorable net earnings improvements** and **working capital adjustments** that still had negative effects. In particular, even though there was a significant increase in net earnings and positive contributions from accounts receivable, the cash flow was constrained by a **negative impact of $(476) million** from other working capital adjustments, along with timing differences in variable compensation payments that did not entirely offset these outflows.  **[0000047217-24-000024_hpq-20240131.htm:8]** **[0000047217-24-000024_hpq-20240131.htm:50]** 

Why was Operating Cash Flow so low in Q1 2024?

The jump in **Operating Cash Flow** in Q3 2024 was driven by several factors. **Accounts payable increased by $1,082 million** (compared to $801 million in Q3 2023), providing a substantial boost, and **inventory was reduced by $275 million** (versus only a $10 million reduction in Q3 2023), which further improved cash flow. Additionally, the negative impact from **accounts receivable was less severe** in Q3 2024, and **restructuring and other charges** had a smaller adverse effect at **$60 million** compared to **$77 million** in Q3 2023. Finally, improved operational efficiency driven by cost-saving initiatives under HP’s transformation plan also contributed to the overall increase in cash flow.  **[0000047217-24-000068_hp73124exhibit991q324.htm:0]** **[0000047217-24-000068_hp73124exhibit991q324.htm:8]** **[HPQ_3400062_5]** **[HPQ_3400062_4]** 

What factors drove the jump in Operating Cash Flow in Q3 2024?

The decline in **Operating Cash Flow** in **Q4 2024** compared to **Q4 2023** was mainly driven by several working capital changes. Specifically, there was a substantial increase in **accounts receivable** of **$482 million** in Q4 2024 versus a decrease of **$98 million** in Q4 2023, indicating more outstanding payments from customers. Additionally, **accounts payable** rose by **$1,398 million** in Q4 2024 compared to a decrease of **$107 million** in Q4 2023, which, despite positive implications on manufacturing activity, impacted overall cash flow negatively. Moreover, the decline in **inventory** was less pronounced in Q4 2024 (a decrease of **$101 million**) versus a decrease of **$304 million** in Q4 2023, and there was a detrimental effect from **other assets and liabilities** with a negative impact of **$472 million** in Q4 2024 compared to a positive impact of **$646 million** in Q4 2023.  **[0000047217-24-000075_hp103124exhibit991q424.htm:9]**
