Seagate raises share buyback to USD $5 billion, sets 2028 goals
Seagate has outlined its long-term strategy for value growth, new financial targets through fiscal year 2028, and an expansion of its share repurchase programme. At its 2025 Investor and Analyst Event, Seagate set out its approach to capitalising on data storage demand and driving both profitability and shareholder value. Dave Mosley, Seagate's Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Technology innovation and AI are fueling exponential data growth and driving demand for the hard drive storage industry." "Seagate today is uniquely positioned to capture this opportunity with our Mozaic portfolio powered by market-leading HAMR technology. Our differentiated portfolio addresses critical data centre challenges, including cost, scale and sustainability, enabling us to deliver storage solutions for customers from cloud to edge." He continued, "Since our last Investor and Analyst Event in 2021, we have made structural improvements to extend demand visibility, maintain supply discipline, optimise product mix, and streamline cost structure. We are a stronger company today thanks to the dedicated efforts of our global team." "This is an incredibly exciting time at Seagate, and we are confident we have the right technology and strategy to lead the next era of storage in today's data-driven world, while delivering enhanced value to shareholders." The company presented new financial targets set through the fiscal year 2028, which, according to Seagate, are underpinned by the adoption of its HAMR (Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording) technology. This approach, the company asserts, provides a pathway from its current Mozaic 3+TB/disk product towards future 10+TB/disk capacities, responding to increasing requirements for mass-capacity storage. Mozaic is highlighted as Seagate's portfolio leveraging HAMR technology, targeted to address growing needs for both scale and efficiency in data centre environments. The roadmap outlined at the event details Seagate's intention to incrementally increase areal density and drive advancements in storage capacities, aiming to outpace industry requirements for enterprises and cloud providers alike. In addition to its product and strategy updates, Seagate announced that its Board of Directors has authorised an increase in share repurchase capacity, lifting the authorisation to USD $5 billion. This expanded authorisation, which does not carry a time limit, demonstrates what the company says is an ongoing commitment to returning capital to shareholders and reflects its confidence in its strategic direction and financial health. The company noted that any share repurchases would be subject to Seagate's financial position, performance, cash availability, capital demands, distributable reserves, and other considerations evaluated by the board. The increased focus on long-term profitability is positioned around both continued execution and operational discipline, as well as targeted investment in storage technologies. Seagate referenced structural changes since 2021 as key drivers enhancing its capacity to address market cycles and project financial visibility. Seagate reinforced its view that exponential data growth, fuelled by technology and artificial intelligence, is creating new demands within the hard drive storage industry. The company asserts its Mozaic HAMR-based portfolio offers competitive advantages on cost, scalability, and environmental considerations, intended to support deployment across cloud and edge environments. The company's materials presented during the event confirm plans for a sequence of product launches that continue the expansion of its Mozaic line, with a strategic focus on capacity increases critical to both hyperscale and enterprise markets. Seagate reports it has shipped more than four billion terabytes of data capacity since its founding, and maintains a product portfolio that covers data storage requirements from edge compute locations to core cloud data centres.
