Effective at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2024, in order to align its segment financial reporting more closely with its current business structure, Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company ("HPE") implemented an organizational change with the (i) creation of a new Hybrid Cloud business segment (which consists of the previous Storage business segment, HPE GreenLake for Compute that provides flexible compute as-a-Service IT infrastructure on a consumption basis, private cloud product and service solutions, and the HPE Software business), (ii) transfer of certain products and services, previously reported in the High Performance Computing & Artificial Intelligence segment, to the Compute and Hybrid Cloud segments, and (iii) transfer of the recently acquired Athonet business and certain components of our Communications and Media Solutions business, previously reported in Corporate Investments and Other, to the Intelligent Edge segment.

HPE reflected these changes to its segment information retrospectively to the fiscal 2023 and 2022 financial results, which primarily resulted in the realignment of net revenue and operating profit for each of the segments as described above. These changes had no impact on Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s previously reported consolidated net revenue, net earnings, net earnings per share or total assets.

HPE has released revised quarterly and full year segment results for fiscal 2023 and 2022, which are attached hereto Exhibit 99.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.
