HP gets positive reviews after revenue beat, shares jump

mercredi 27 novembre 2013

Meg Whitman, chief executive officer and president of Hewlett-Packard, speaks during the grand opening of the company's Executive Briefing Center in Palo Alto HP shares rose 9 percent to $27.33 in early trading, after at least one brokerage raised its rating on the PC maker's shares and another nine raised their price targets. Expectations were low for HP's fourth quarter following a disappointing third quarter and after rivals IBM and Cisco Systems Inc reported poor results. But HP surprised on Tuesday by reporting stronger-than-expected revenue due to growth in its enterprise group, which supplies servers, storage and networking products to business. Overall revenue for the fourth quarter was $29.1 billion, beating the average analyst forecast of $27.9 billion, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
