CEO Meg Whitman: HP looking for a breakthrough in mobile

 

Whitman stressed concerns about “macroeconomic head winds” in the earnings calls and stated that she plans to increase R&D spending further. Still, Whitman is pleased with the computer company’s progress so far and noted that consistent execution and a competitive advantage is the key.

The HP restructuring involves a big move into enterprise, software, storage and other high margin businesses. Analysts feel that the turnaround phase has just started. It appears that low investor estimates was the primary reason for HPQ easily beating views.

 

Enterprise sales increase, PC upgrades

 

The enterprise unit saw its sales going up 2% to $7.6 billion. This was after a 9% decline in the prior quarter that sent the shares tumbling 12.5%.

 

The traditional PC business will be the go to source for revenues in the near to mid-term. The fact remains that tablets cannot completely replace PCs. Additionally, companies need to upgrade their PCs along with consumers. 1.5 billion PCs are out there and when their users go in for an upgrade, HP stands to benefit greatly.

 

The management has been highly touted by analysts who feel a turnaround back to long-term profitability is very likely. At the same time, this could be at least a year away. For now, the analyst forecast for Q1 2014 revenue is $26.8 billion (down 5.4%).

 

In after-hours trading HP stock jumped 6.5%. I have a bullish view after HPQ reported earnings. I am looking to trade calls on HPQ with daily/monthly calls.
