Fiscal 2025 Third Quarter Outlook
HPE estimates revenue to be in the range of $8.2 billion and $8.5 billion. HPE estimates GAAP diluted net EPS to be in the range of $0.24 to $0.29 and non-GAAP diluted net EPS(1) to be in the range of $0.40 to $0.45. Fiscal 2025 third quarter non-GAAP diluted net EPS estimate excludes net after-tax adjustments of approximately $0.16 per diluted share primarily related to stock-based compensation expense, acquisition, disposition and other charges, the cost reduction program, and amortization of intangible assets.
Fiscal 2025 Outlook
HPE estimates fiscal 2025 revenue growth of 7% to 9%, in constant currency(1)(5), and fiscal 2025 GAAP operating profit growth to be in the range of negative 81% to negative 72%(6) and non-GAAP operating profit(1)(4) growth to be negative 7% to 0%. HPE estimates GAAP diluted net EPS to be in the range of $0.30 and $0.42(6) and non-GAAP diluted net EPS(1) to be in the range of $1.78 to $1.90. Fiscal 2025 non-GAAP diluted net EPS estimate excludes net after-tax adjustments of approximately $1.48 per diluted share, primarily related to impairment of goodwill, stock-based compensation expense, the cost reduction program, acquisition, disposition and other charges, amortization of intangible assets, and H3C divestiture related severance costs. HPE estimates free cash flow(1)(3)(5) of approximately $1 billion.
1 A description of HPE's use of non-GAAP financial information is provided below under "Use of non-GAAP financial information and key performance metrics."
2 Annualized Revenue Run-Rate ("ARR") is a financial metric used to assess the growth of the Consumption Services offerings. ARR represents the annualized revenue of all net HPE GreenLake cloud services revenue, related financial services revenue (which includes rental income from operating leases and interest income from finance leases), and software-as-a-Service, software consumption revenue, and other as-a-Service offerings, recognized during a quarter and multiplied by four. We use ARR as a performance metric. ARR should be viewed independently of net revenue and is not intended to be combined with it.
3 Free cash flow represents cash flow from operations, less net capital expenditures (investments in property, plant & equipment ("PP&E") and software assets less proceeds from the sale of PP&E), and adjusted for the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash.​
4 FY25 non-GAAP operating profit excludes costs of approximately $2.5 billion primarily related to impairment of goodwill, stock-based compensation expense, the cost reduction program, acquisition, disposition and other charges, amortization of intangible assets, and H3C divestiture related severance costs.
5 Hewlett Packard Enterprise provides certain guidance on a non-GAAP basis. In reliance on the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, Hewlett Packard Enterprise is unable to provide a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts, as the Company cannot predict some elements that are included in such directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These elements could have a material impact on the Company's reported GAAP results for the guidance period. Refer to the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures below for more information.
6 Includes the impact of $1.4 billion impairment of goodwill recorded in Q2 of fiscal 2025.

Use of non-GAAP financial information and key performance metrics
To supplement Hewlett Packard Enterprise's condensed consolidated financial statement information presented on a generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") basis, Hewlett Packard Enterprise provides financial measures, including revenue on a constant currency basis (including at the business segment level), non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating profit (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit margin (non-GAAP earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue), non-GAAP income tax rate, non-GAAP net earnings attributable to HPE and non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common stockholders, non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributable to common stockholders, and free cash flow ("FCF"). Hewlett Packard Enterprise also provides forecasts of revenue growth on a constant currency basis, non-GAAP operating profit growth, non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share, and FCF. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures for this quarter and prior periods are included in the tables below or elsewhere in the materials accompanying this news release. In addition an explanation of the ways in which Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate its business, the substance behind Hewlett Packard Enterprise's decision to use these non-GAAP measures, the material limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP measures, the manner in which Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management compensates for those limitations, and the substantive reasons why Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide supplemental useful information to investors is included further below. This additional non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue, gross profit, gross profit margin, operating profit (earnings from operations), operating profit margin (earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue), net earnings, diluted net earnings per share, and cash flow from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP.
In addition to the supplemental non-GAAP financial information, Hewlett Packard Enterprise also presents annualized revenue run-rate ("ARR") as performance metric. ARR is a financial metric used to assess the growth of the Consumption Services offerings. ARR represents the annualized revenue of all net HPE GreenLake cloud services revenue, related financial services revenue (which includes rental income from operating leases and interest income from finance leases), and software-as-a-service ("SaaS"), software consumption revenue, and other as-a-service offerings recognized during a quarter and multiplied by four. ARR should be viewed independently of net revenue and is not intended to be combined with it.

(2)
Other adjustments includes non-service net periodic benefit credit and tax indemnification and other adjustments.
(3)
For purposes of calculating diluted net EPS, the preferred stock dividends are added back to the net earnings attributable to common stockholders and the diluted weighted average share calculation assumes the preferred stock was converted at issuance or as of the beginning of the reporting period.
(4)
Effective at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2025, in order to align its segment financial reporting more closely with its current business structure, HPE implemented an organizational change with the transfer of certain managed services, previously reported within the Server reportable segment, to the Hybrid Cloud reportable segment.
(5)
The impact of dilutive effect of employee stock plans is calculated under the treasury stock method, and the impact of dilutive effect of the preferred stock is calculated under the if-converted method. The effect of employee stock plans and preferred stock is excluded when calculating diluted net loss per share as it would be anti-dilutive.
Use of non-GAAP financial measures
To supplement Hewlett Packard Enterprise's condensed consolidated financial statement information presented on a GAAP basis, Hewlett Packard Enterprise provides non-GAAP financial measures including revenue on a constant currency basis (including at the business segment level), non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating profit (non-GAAP earnings from operations), non-GAAP operating profit margin (non-GAAP earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue), non-GAAP income tax rate, non-GAAP net earnings attributable to HPE, non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common stockholders, non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributable to common stockholders, and FCF. Hewlett Packard Enterprise also provides forecasts of revenue growth on a constant currency basis, non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share, non-GAAP operating profit growth, and FCF.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not computed in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP in the United States. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to net revenue on a constant currency basis is net revenue. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross profit is gross profit. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP gross profit margin is gross profit margin. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating profit (non-GAAP earnings from operations) is earnings from operations. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating profit margin (non-GAAP earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue) is operating profit margin (earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue). The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP income tax rate is income tax rate. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP net earnings attributable to HPE and non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common stockholders is net earnings. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is diluted net earnings per share attributable to common stockholders. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to FCF is cash flow from operations. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures for this quarter and prior periods are included in the tables above or elsewhere in the materials accompanying this news release.
Usefulness of non-GAAP financial measures to investors
Hewlett Packard Enterprise believes that providing the non-GAAP financial measures stated above, in addition to the related GAAP measures provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management in its financial and operational decision making and allows investors to see Hewlett Packard Enterprise's results "through the eyes" of management. Hewlett Packard Enterprise further believes that providing this information provides Hewlett Packard Enterprise's investors with a supplemental view to understand the Company's historical and prospective operating performance and to evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management to evaluate and measure such performance. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates the comparisons of Hewlett Packard Enterprise's operating performance with the performance of other companies in the same industry that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures that may be calculated in a similar manner.
Economic substance of and material limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures used by Hewlett Packard Enterprise
Net revenue on a constant currency basis assumes no change to the foreign exchange rate utilized in the comparable prior-year period. This measure assists investors with evaluating the Company's past and future performance, without the impact of foreign exchange rates, as more than half of our revenue is generated outside of the U.S. Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross profit margin are defined to exclude charges related to the stock-based compensation expense, acquisition, disposition and other charges, severance costs associated with the cost reduction program, and H3C divestiture related severance costs. Non-GAAP operating profit (non-GAAP earnings from operations) and non-GAAP operating profit margin (non-GAAP earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue) consist of earnings from operations or earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue excluding the items mentioned above and charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, and transformation (credit) costs. Non-GAAP net earnings net earnings attributable to HPE and non-GAAP net earnings attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributable to common stockholders consist of net earnings or diluted net earnings per share excluding the charges previously stated, as well as gain on sale of a business, adjustments for equity interests, gain or loss on equity investments, other adjustments, and adjustments for taxes. Non-GAAP net earnings attributable to HPE and non-GAAP diluted net earnings per share attributable to common stockholders includes preferred stock dividends added back to non-GAAP net earnings attributable to HPE. The Adjustments for taxes line item includes certain income tax valuation allowances and separation taxes, the impact of tax reform, structural rate adjustment, excess tax benefit from stock-based compensation, and adjustments for additional taxes or tax benefits associated with each non-GAAP item.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise believes that excluding the items mentioned above from the non-GAAP financial measures provides a supplemental view to management and investors of its consolidated financial performance and presents the financial results of the business without costs that Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management does not believe to be reflective of ongoing operating results. Exclusion of these items can have a material impact on the equivalent GAAP measure and cash flows thus limiting their use as analytical tools. These limitations are discussed below or elsewhere in the materials accompanying this news release. More specifically, Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management excludes each of those items mentioned above for the following reasons:
Stock-based compensation expense consists of equity awards granted based on the estimated fair value of those awards at grant date. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to employees, HPE excludes these charges for the purpose of calculating these non-GAAP measures, primarily because they are non-cash expenses, and the Company's internal benchmarking analyses evidence that many industry participants and peers present non-GAAP financial measures excluding stock-based compensation expense.
HPE incurred costs related to its acquisition, disposition and other charges. Charges include expenses associated with acquisitions, disposal activities, and disaster (recovery) charges. HPE excludes these costs because the Company's management considers these charges to be discrete events and does not believe they are reflective of normal continuing business operations. For the three and six months ended April 30, 2025, acquisition charges were driven by costs associated with the proposed acquisition of Juniper Networks and miscellaneous disposition related charges. For the three months ended January 31, 2025, these charges were driven by costs associated with the proposed acquisition of Juniper Networks and the acquisition of Morpheus Data, in addition to prior acquisitions of Axis, Athonet and OpsRamp. For the three and six months ended April 30, 2024, acquisition charges were driven by the proposed acquisition of Juniper Networks, in addition to prior acquisitions of Axis and Athonet.
We incurred severance and other charges pursuant to cost management initiatives. We exclude these charges because we do not believe they are reflective of normal continuing business operations. We believe eliminating these adjustments for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures facilitates the evaluation of our current operating performance.
HPE incurred H3C divestiture related severance costs in connection with the disposition of total issued share capital of H3C. On September 4, 2024, HPE divested 30% of the total issued share capital of H3C and received proceeds of $2.1 billion of pre-tax consideration ($2.0 billion post-tax). The divestiture resulted in decreased future investment earnings and cash dividend inflows resulting in a decision to implement offsetting cost savings measures. These measures include severance for certain of the Company's employees. The non-GAAP adjustment represents our costs to execute these related exit actions to offset the loss in equity earnings and related cash flows. HPE expects future annualized cost savings of approximately $120 million following the completion of these actions.
HPE incurs charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets and excludes these charges for purposes of calculating these non-GAAP measures. Such charges are significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of the Company's acquisitions. HPE excludes these charges for the purpose of calculating these non-GAAP measures, primarily because they are non-cash expenses and the Company's internal benchmarking analyses evidence that many industry participants and peers present non-GAAP financial measures excluding intangible asset amortization. Although this does not directly affect HPE's cash position, the loss in value of intangible assets over time can have a material impact on the equivalent GAAP earnings measure.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, HPE recorded a non-cash impairment charge for the goodwill associated with its Hybrid Cloud reporting unit. HPE believes that this non-cash charge does not reflect the Company's operating results and is not indicative of the underlying performance of the business. HPE excludes these charges for purposes of calculating these non-GAAP measures to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of HPE's current operating performance and comparisons to HPE's operating performance in other periods. Although this does not directly affect the Company's cash position, the loss in value of goodwill over time can have a material impact on the equivalent GAAP earnings measure.
Transformation (credit) costs represent net costs related to the (i) HPE Next Plan and (ii) Cost Optimization and Prioritization Plan. HPE excludes these costs as they are discrete costs related to two specific transformation programs that were announced in 2017 and 2020, respectively, as multi-year programs necessary to transform the business and IT infrastructure. The primary elements of the HPE Next and the Cost Optimization and Prioritization Plan have been substantially completed by October 31, 2024. The exclusion of the transformation program cost from the non-GAAP financial measures as stated above, is to provide a supplemental measure of the Company's operating results that do not include material HPE Next Plan and Cost Optimization and Prioritization Plan costs as the Company's management does not believe such costs to be reflective of its ongoing operating cost structure.
Gain on sale of a business represents the gain associated with certain disposal activities. On December 1, 2024, HPE completed the disposition of the Company's Communication Technology Group which resulted in a gain of $244 million. The Company's management considers this divestiture to be a discrete event and believes eliminating this adjustment for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures facilitates the evaluation of its current operating performance.
During the six months ended April 30, 2024, HPE stopped reporting H3C earnings in the Company's non-GAAP results due to the planned divestiture of the H3C investment. Per the terms of the original Put Share Purchase Agreement described in Note 19 "Equity Interests" to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of Part II of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, the Company was not anticipating receiving dividends from this investment prospectively. However, on May 24, 2024, HPE entered into an Amended and Restated Put Share Purchase Agreement and an Agreement on Subsequent Arrangements, both with UNIS, revised the arrangements governing the aforementioned sale as previously set forth in the original Put Share Purchase Agreement. On September 4, 2024, HPE divested 30% of the total issued share capital of H3C. HPE continues to possess the option to sell the remaining 19% of the total issued share capital of H3C at a later date. The Company's management believes that eliminating these amounts for purposes of calculating non-GAAP financial measures facilitates the evaluation of the Company's current operating performance.
HPE excludes gains and losses (including impairments) on its non-marketable equity investments because the Company does not believe they are reflective of normal continuing business operations. These adjustments are reflected in Interest and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The Company believes eliminating these adjustments for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures facilitates the evaluation of its current operating performance.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise utilizes a structural long-term projected non-GAAP income tax rate in order to provide consistency across the interim reporting periods and to eliminate the effects of items not directly related to the Company's operating structure that can vary in size and frequency. When projecting this long-term rate, HPE evaluated a three-year financial projection. The projected rate assumes no incremental acquisitions in the three-year projection period and considers other factors including the Company's expected tax structure, its tax positions in various jurisdictions and current impacts from key legislation implemented in major jurisdictions where HPE operates. For fiscal 2025, the Company will use a projected non-GAAP income tax rate of 15%, which reflects currently available information as well as other factors and assumptions. The non-GAAP income tax rate could be subject to change for a variety of reasons, including the rapidly evolving global tax environment, significant changes in the Company's geographic earnings mix including due to acquisition activity, or other changes to the Company's strategy or business operations. HPE will re-evaluate its long-term rate as appropriate. For fiscal 2024, HPE had a non-GAAP tax rate of 15%. HPE believes that making these adjustments for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures, facilitates a supplemental evaluation of the Company's current operating performance and comparisons to past operating results.
FCF is defined as cash flow from operations, less net capital expenditures (investments in property, plant & equipment ("PP&E") and software assets less proceeds from the sale of PP&E), and adjusted for the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. FCF does not represent the total increase or decrease in cash for the period. Hewlett Packard Enterprise's management and investors can use FCF for the purpose of determining the amount of cash available for investment in the Company's businesses, repurchasing stock and other purposes as well as evaluating its historical and prospective liquidity.
Compensation for material limitations with use of non-GAAP financial measures
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Hewlett Packard Enterprise's results as reported under GAAP. Some of the limitations in relying on these non-GAAP financial measures are that they can have a material impact on the equivalent GAAP earnings measures and cash flows, they may be calculated differently by other companies (limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes) and may not reflect the full economic effect of the loss in value of certain assets. Hewlett Packard Enterprise compensates for these limitations on the use of non-GAAP financial measures by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures only as a supplement. Hewlett Packard Enterprise also provides a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for this quarter and prior periods within this news release and in other written materials that include these non-GAAP financial measures, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise encourages investors to review those reconciliations carefully.

'AI-First' Hype Gives Way to Reality: New Speechmatics Report Reveals What's Actually Working in AI

CAMBRIDGE, UK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--After a wave of bold 'AI-first' announcements from major tech players, many are now scaling back. Rather than betting on speculative demos, successful enterprises are treating Voice AI as critical infrastructure. Share As the AI gold rush slows, a new report from Speechmatics explores what's actually working — and where the real value lies. Titled The Voice AI Reality Check: Frontline Perspectives for Enterprise in 2025, the report zeroes in on one of the fastest-evolving areas of AI: Voice AI. Built on interviews with leaders across healthcare, compliance, media, public services, and research, it reveals a clear shift from flashy demos to embedded, operational AI — where tools assist humans, deliver measurable ROI, and quietly power core infrastructure. Report highlights include: Assistive over autonomous: The most effective deployments augment people rather than replace them. Assistive agents are driving real ROI. Multilingual as standard: Real-time code-switching is now a baseline requirement, not a bonus. Accuracy is make-or-break: With growing global concerns over AI hallucinations, precision is essential — especially in compliance-heavy environments. Voice as infrastructure: Quietly embedded tools are outperforming headline-grabbing features. Rather than betting on speculative demos, successful enterprises are treating Voice AI as critical infrastructure. It's being embedded into workflows that demand speed, accuracy, and trust — from noisy control rooms to multilingual contact centres. The report closes with future-looking predictions, outlining the rise of emotionally intelligent, adaptive, and natively multilingual voice systems — and offers guidance on what enterprises must prioritise next.
