Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 2 of Part I, contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations and assumptions that involve risks and uncertainties. If the risks or uncertainties ever materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, they could affect the business and results of operations of HP which may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and assumptions. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, projections of net revenue, margins, expenses, effective tax rates, net earnings, net earnings per share, cash flows, benefit plan funding, deferred taxes, share repurchases, foreign currency exchange rates or other financial items; any projections of the amount, timing or impact of cost savings or restructuring and other charges, planned structural cost reductions and productivity initiatives; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations, including, but not limited to, our business model and transformation, our sustainability goals, our go-to-market strategy, the execution of restructuring plans and any resulting cost savings (including the Fiscal 2026 Plan (as defined herein)), net revenue or profitability improvements or other financial impacts; any statements concerning the expected development, demand, performance, market share or competitive performance relating to products or services; any statements concerning potential supply constraints, component shortages, manufacturing disruptions or logistics challenges; any statements regarding current or future macroeconomic trends or events, including global trade policies, and the impact of those trends and events on HP and its financial performance; any statements regarding pending investigations, claims, disputes or other litigation matters; any statements of expectation or belief as to the timing and expected benefits of acquisitions and other business combination and investment transactions; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements can also generally be identified by words such as “future,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “can,” “may,” and similar terms. Risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could affect our business and results of operations include factors relating to HP’s ability to execute on its strategic plans, including the previously announced initiatives, business model changes and transformation; the development and transition of new products and services and the enhancement of existing products and services to meet evolving customer needs and respond to emerging technological trends, including artificial intelligence; the use of artificial intelligence; the impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical trends, changes and events, including global trade policies, the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine, continued instability in the Middle East or tensions in the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea and the regional and global ramifications of these events; volatility in global capital markets and foreign currency, changes in benchmark interest rates, the effects of inflation and instability of financial institutions; risks associated with HP’s international operations and the effects of business disruption events, including those resulting from climate change; the need to manage (and reliance on) third-party suppliers, including with respect to increasing memory and storage costs, supply constraints and component shortages, and the need to manage HP’s global, multi-tier distribution network and potential misuse of pricing programs by HP’s channel partners, adapt to new or changing marketplaces and effectively deliver HP’s services; the execution and performance of contracts by HP and its suppliers, customers, clients and partners, including logistical challenges with respect to such execution and performance; the competitive pressures faced by HP’s businesses; the impact of third-party claims of IP infringement; successfully innovating, developing and executing HP’s go-to-market strategy, including online, omnichannel and contractual sales, in an evolving distribution, reseller and customer landscape; successfully competing and maintaining the value proposition of HP’s products, including supplies and services; challenges to HP’s ability to accurately forecast inventories, demand and pricing, which may be due to HP’s multi-tiered channel, sales of HP’s products to unauthorized resellers or unauthorized resale of HP’s products or our uneven sales cycle; the hiring and retention of key employees, changes in our management team and execution of succession plans; the results of our restructuring plans (including the Fiscal 2026 Plan), including estimates and assumptions related to the cost (including any possible disruption of HP’s business) and the anticipated benefits of our restructuring plans; the protection of HP’s intellectual property assets, including intellectual property licensed from third parties; disruptions in operations from system security risks, data protection breaches, or cyberattacks; HP’s ability to maintain its credit rating, satisfy its debt obligations and complete any contemplated share repurchases, other capital return programs or other strategic transactions; changes in estimates and assumptions HP makes in connection with the preparation of its financial statements; the impact of changes to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, including environmental regulations and tax laws; integration and other risks associated with business combination and investment transactions; our aspirations related to environmental and societal matters; potential impacts, liabilities and costs from pending or potential investigations, claims and disputes; the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; and other risks that are described herein, as well as the risks discussed in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 and that are otherwise described or updated from time to time in HP’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). HP’s Fiscal 2026 Plan includes HP’s efforts to drive customer satisfaction, product innovation and productivity primarily through artificial intelligence adoption and enablement and the resulting efficiencies, including those that enable a reduction in workforce. Anticipated cost savings associated with the Fiscal 2026 Plan represent expected gross reductions in costs from these measures. These cost savings are net of any new recurring costs resulting from these initiatives and exclude one-time investments to generate such savings. HP’s expectations on the longer-term sustainability of such cost savings are based on its current business operations and market dynamics and could be significantly impacted by various factors, including but not limited to HP’s evolving business models, future investment decisions, market environment and technology landscape. The forward-looking statements in this report are made as of the date of this filing and HP assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of HP and its wholly owned subsidiaries are prepared in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The interim financial information is unaudited but reflects all normal adjustments that are necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This interim information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 in HP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on December 13, 2025. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for October 31, 2025 was derived from audited financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of HP and its subsidiaries and affiliates in which HP has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications
HP has reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current-year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in HP’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements on an annual and interim basis. HP is required to adopt this guidance for its annual period ending October 31, 2028 and all interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance that enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures by expanding annual disclosure requirements related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. HP is required to adopt this guidance for its annual period ending October 31, 2026. The Company will adopt the guidance prospectively. Adoption of this new guidance will result in additional disclosures in the “Taxes on Earnings” note in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements but will not impact the consolidated financial results.

Realignment
Effective at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2026, HP realigned its business unit financial reporting to reflect the transition of the Print-as-a-Service business from Corporate Investments to Printing. HP reflected this change to its business unit information in prior reporting periods on an as-if basis which resulted in the reclassification of segment net revenue, cost of net revenue and operating expenses from the Corporate Investments segment to Supplies and Consumer Printing. The reporting change had no impact to previously reported consolidated net revenue, earnings from operations, net earnings or net earnings per share (“EPS”). In connection with this business unit realignment, the Company reallocated $197

Note 3: Restructuring and Other Charges
Summary of Restructuring Plans
Fiscal 2026 Plan
On November 25, 2025, HP’s Board of Directors approved the Fiscal 2026 Plan intended to drive customer satisfaction, product innovation, and productivity primarily through artificial intelligence adoption and enablement that HP expects will be implemented through fiscal 2028. HP expects to reduce global headcount by approximately 4,000 to 6,000 employees. HP estimates that it will incur pre-tax charges of approximately $650 million relating to labor and non-labor actions, and other charges. During the course of the Fiscal 2026 Plan, HP expects to incur approximately $500 million in labor costs related to workforce reductions and expects the remaining costs to relate to non-labor actions and other charges.
Fiscal 2023 Plan
On November 18, 2022, HP’s Board of Directors approved the Fiscal 2023 Plan intended to enable digital transformation, portfolio optimization and operational efficiency that HP implemented through fiscal 2025. The Fiscal 2023 Plan is substantially complete. HP does not expect any further significant costs associated with the plan. Approximately 9,500 employees departed as part of the plan through a combination of employee exits and voluntary Enhanced Early Retirement (“EER”). HP incurred $865 million in severance costs and $347 million in infrastructure costs related to non-labor and other charges.
HP’s restructuring and other charges under the Fiscal 2026 Plan and Fiscal 2023 Plan were as follows:

As of July 31, 2026, HP has incurred $0.5 billion and $1.2 billion of total costs for the Fiscal 2026 Plan and the Fiscal 2023 Plan, respectively.
Retirement Incentive Program
As part of the Fiscal 2026 Plan, HP announced a voluntary EER program for its U.S. employees in March 2026. Voluntary participation in the EER program was limited to employees at least 55 years old with 10 or more years of service at HP. Employees accepted into the EER program are leaving HP on dates ranging from May 29, 2026 to April 30, 2027. The U.S. defined benefit pension plan was amended to provide that the EER benefit will be paid from the plan for eligible electing EER participants.
The retirement incentive benefit is calculated as a lump sum based on years of service at HP at the time of retirement, ranging from 20 to 52 weeks of pay. As a result of this retirement incentive, HP recognized a Special Termination Benefit (“STB”) expense of $220 million as restructuring and other charges for the nine months ended July 31, 2026. The expense has been recorded as a reduction from the Prepaid pension and post-retirement benefit assets reflected under Other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
All employees participating in the EER program were offered the opportunity to continue health care coverage at the active employee contribution rates for up to 36 months following retirement, but not beyond age 65 when Medicare is available. HP recognized an additional STB expense of $60 million as restructuring and other charges for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 for the health care incentives. The expense has been recorded in the Pension, post-retirement and post-employment liabilities reflected under Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
STB expense is a non-cash expense and represents the present value of all EER benefits that will be paid from the pension plan assets.

Note 4: Taxes on Earnings
Provision for Taxes
HP’s effective tax rate was 17.2 % and (22.3 )% for the three months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 15.6 % and 5.5 % for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and HP’s effective tax rate for the three months ended July 31, 2026 was primarily due to decreases in unrecognized tax benefits. For the nine months ended July 31, 2026, the difference was primarily due to decreases in unrecognized tax benefits and audit settlements in various jurisdictions.
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of July 31, 2026, the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $752 million, of which up to $615 million would affect HP’s effective tax rate if realized. Total gross unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $113 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2026. HP recognizes interest income from favorable settlements and interest expense and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for taxes in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. As of July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025, HP had accrued $71 million and $122 million, respectively, for interest and penalties.
HP is subject to income tax in the United States and approximately 60 other countries and is subject to routine corporate income tax audits in many of these jurisdictions. In addition, HP is subject to numerous ongoing audits by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is conducting an audit of HP’s 2018 and 2019 income tax returns.

HP utilizes certain third-party arrangements in the normal course of business as part of HP’s cash and liquidity management and also to provide liquidity to certain partners to facilitate their working capital requirements. These financing arrangements, which in certain circumstances may contain partial recourse, result in a transfer of HP’s receivables and risk to the third-party. As these transfers qualify as true sales under the applicable accounting guidance, the receivables are de-recognized from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets upon transfer, and HP receives a payment for the receivables from the third-party within a mutually agreed upon time period. For arrangements involving an element of recourse, the recourse obligation is measured using market data from similar transactions and reported as a current liability in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The recourse obligations as of July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025 were not material.

Value of Remaining Performance Obligations
As of July 31, 2026, the estimated value of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $4.2 billion. HP expects to recognize approximately $2.0 billion of the unearned amount in next 12 months and $2.2 billion thereafter.
HP has elected the practical expedients and accordingly does not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if:
•the contract has an original expected duration of one year or less; or
•the revenue from the performance obligation is recognized over time on an as-invoiced basis when the amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer; or
•the portion of the transaction price that is variable in nature is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation.
The remaining performance obligations are subject to change and may be affected by various factors, such as termination of contracts, contract modifications and adjustment for currency.
Contract Liabilities
As of July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025, HP’s contract liabilities balances were $3.4 billion and $3.2 billion, respectively, included in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The increase in the contract liabilities balance for the nine months ended July 31, 2026, was primarily driven by sales of fixed-price support and maintenance services, partially offset by $1.2 billion of revenue recognized that was included in the contract liabilities balance as of October 31, 2025.
Supplier Finance Programs
HP facilitates voluntary supplier finance programs to provide certain suppliers the opportunity to sell their right to HP’s payment obligations to participating financial institutions. Under these programs, HP agrees to pay the participating financial institutions the stated amount of confirmed invoices from its designated suppliers on the original maturity dates of the invoices. Participation by suppliers in these programs has no impact on the payment terms and amounts due from HP. HP does not have an economic interest in a supplier's participation in the program and is not a party to the agreement between the supplier and the financial institutions. In connection with these programs, HP does not pledge assets or other forms of guarantees as security for the committed payment to the participating financial institutions. For certain programs, HP pays a monthly service fee to a third-party administrator that provides the supplier finance platform and related support. HP and the participating financial institutions may terminate the agreement upon at least 30 days notice. As of July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025, HP had $10.9 billion and $8.9 billion respectively, in obligations outstanding (i.e., unpaid invoices) that were confirmed as valid under the supplier finance programs. These obligations are included within the Accounts payable line item of HP’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of both July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025, the Company’s outstanding payment obligations that suppliers elected to sell to participating financial institutions were immaterial and $0.1 billion, respectively.

Note 6: Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Fair Value Hierarchy
HP uses valuation techniques that are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed using market data such as publicly available information and reflect the assumptions market participants would use, while unobservable inputs are developed using the best information available about the assumptions market participants would use. Assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and market-corroborated inputs.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to observable inputs and lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

Valuation Techniques
Cash Equivalents and Investments: HP holds money market funds, mutual funds, other debt securities primarily consisting of corporate and foreign government notes and bonds, and common stock and equivalents. HP values cash equivalents and equity investments using quoted market prices, alternative pricing sources, including net asset value, or models utilizing market observable inputs. The fair value of debt investments is based on quoted market prices or model-driven valuations using inputs primarily derived from or corroborated by observable market data and, in certain instances, valuation models that utilize assumptions which cannot be corroborated with observable market data.
Derivative Instruments: HP uses industry standard valuation models to measure fair value. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves, HP and counterparty credit risk, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies and interest rates. See Note 7, “Financial Instruments” for a further discussion of HP’s use of derivative instruments.
Other Fair Value Disclosures
Short- and Long-Term Debt: HP estimates the fair value of its debt primarily using an expected present value technique, which is based on observable market inputs using interest rates currently available to companies of similar credit standing for similar terms and remaining maturities and considering its own credit risk. The portion of HP’s debt that is hedged is reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an amount equal to the debt’s carrying amount and a fair value adjustment representing changes in the fair value of the hedged debt obligations arising from movements in benchmark interest rates. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $8.9 billion as compared to its carrying amount of $9.2 billion as of July 31, 2026. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $9.6 billion as compared to its carrying value of $9.7 billion as of October 31, 2025. If measured at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, short- and long-term debt would be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Other Financial Instruments: For the balance of HP’s financial instruments, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable and financial liabilities included in Other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short term maturities. If measured at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, these other financial instruments would be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Non-Marketable Equity Investments and Non-Financial Assets: HP’s non-marketable equity investments are measured at cost less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes. HP’s non-financial assets, such as intangible assets, goodwill and property, plant and equipment, are recorded at fair value in the period an impairment charge is recognized. If measured at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets these would generally be classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

HP determines credit losses on cash equivalents and available-for-sale debt securities at the individual security level. All instruments are considered investment grade. No credit-related or noncredit-related impairment losses were recorded for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026.
Derivative Instruments
HP uses derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, treasury rate locks, forward starting swaps and option contracts to offset business exposure to foreign currency and interest rate risk on expected future cash flows and on certain existing assets and liabilities. HP may designate its derivative contracts as fair value hedges or cash flow hedges and classifies the cash flows with the activities that correspond to the underlying hedged items. Additionally, for derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, HP categorizes those economic hedges as other derivatives. HP recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
24
As a result of its use of derivative instruments, HP is exposed to the risk that its counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. Master netting agreements mitigate credit exposure to counterparties by permitting HP to net amounts due from HP to counterparty against amounts due to HP from the same counterparty under certain conditions. To further limit credit risk, HP has collateral security agreements that allow HP’s custodian to hold collateral from, or require HP to post collateral to, counterparties when the net fair value of financial instruments fluctuates. The Company includes gross collateral posted and received in other current assets and other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. The fair value of derivatives with credit contingent features in a net liability position was $29 million and $98 million as of July 31, 2026 and as of October 31, 2025, respectively, all of which were fully collateralized within business days.
Under HP’s derivative contracts, the counterparty can terminate all outstanding trades following a covered change of control event affecting HP that results in the surviving entity being rated below a specified credit rating. This credit contingent provision did not affect HP’s financial position or cash flows as of July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025.
Fair Value Hedges
HP enters into fair value hedges, such as interest rate swaps, to reduce the exposure of its debt portfolio to changes in fair value resulting from changes in benchmark interest rates on HP’s future interest payments.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, HP recognizes the change in fair value of the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item, in Interest and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings in the period of change.
Cash Flow Hedges
HP uses forward contracts, option contracts, treasury rate locks and forward starting swaps designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange and interest rate risks inherent in its forecasted products net revenue, cost of products net revenue, operating expenses and debt issuance. HP’s foreign currency cash flow hedges mature predominantly within twelve months ; however, hedges related to long-term procurement arrangements, contractual pricing and/or business unit specific exposures may extend several years.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, HP initially records changes in fair value of the derivative instrument in Accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of Stockholders’ deficit in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently reclassifies these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. HP reports the changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument in the same financial statement line item as changes in the fair value of the hedged item.
Other Derivatives
Other derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consist primarily of forward contracts used to hedge foreign currency-denominated balance sheet exposures. HP also uses total return swaps to hedge its executive deferred compensation plan liability.
For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, HP recognizes changes in fair value of the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item, in Interest and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings in the period of change.
Hedge Effectiveness
During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025, no portion of the hedging instruments’ gain or loss was excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for fair value and cash flow hedges.

As of July 31, 2026, HP expects to reclassify an estimated accumulated other comprehensive gain of $21 million, net of taxes, to earnings within the next twelve months associated with cash flow hedges along with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions. The amounts ultimately reclassified into earnings could be different from the amounts previously included in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income based on the change of market rate, and therefore could have a different impact on earnings.

(1)HP may redeem some or all of the fixed-rate U.S. Dollar Global Notes at any time in accordance with the terms thereof. The U.S. Dollar Global Notes are senior unsecured debt.
As disclosed in Note 7, “Financial Instruments,” HP uses interest rate swaps to mitigate some of the exposure of its debt portfolio to changes in fair value resulting from changes in benchmark interest rates. Interest rates shown in the table of long-term debt have not been adjusted to reflect the impact of any interest rate swaps.
Commercial Paper
As of July 31, 2026, HP maintained a U.S. commercial paper program for the issuance of U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper. The principal amount outstanding under this program and certain short-term borrowings at any time cannot exceed a $6.0 billion authorization by HP’s Board of Directors. As of July 31, 2026 and October 31, 2025, no commercial paper was outstanding under the program.

Credit Facility
As of July 31, 2026, HP maintained a $5.0 billion 5-year sustainability-linked senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility, which HP entered into on August 1, 2024. Commitments under the revolving credit facility will be available until August 1, 2029. Commitment fees, interest rates and other terms of borrowing under the revolving credit facility vary based on HP’s external credit ratings and certain sustainability metrics. Funds borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes.
As of July 31, 2026, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility also acts as a backstop to provide liquidity support for our commercial paper program. As of July 31, 2026, HP was in compliance with the covenants in the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility.
Available Borrowing Resources
As of July 31, 2026, HP had available borrowing resources of $0.9 billion from uncommitted lines of credit in addition to funds available under the revolving credit facility.

Note 10: Earnings Per Share
HP calculates basic net EPS using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net EPS includes any dilutive effect of restricted stock units, stock options, performance-based awards and shares purchased under the 2021 employee stock purchase plan.
A reconciliation of the number of shares used for basic and diluted net EPS calculations is as follows:

(1)HP excludes from the calculation of diluted net EPS stock options and restricted stock units where the assumed proceeds exceed the average market price, because their effect would be anti-dilutive. The assumed proceeds of a stock option include the sum of its exercise price, and average unrecognized compensation cost. The assumed proceeds of a restricted stock unit represent average unrecognized compensation cost.
Note 11: Litigation and Contingencies
HP is involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including those identified below, consisting of IP, commercial, securities, employment, employee benefits and environmental matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. HP accrues a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. HP believes it has recorded adequate provisions for any such matters and, as of July 31, 2026, it was not reasonably possible that a material loss had been incurred in excess of the amounts recognized in HP’s financial statements. HP reviews these matters at least quarterly and adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement entered into with Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (“Hewlett Packard Enterprise”), HP shares responsibility with Hewlett Packard Enterprise for certain matters, as indicated below, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise has agreed to indemnify HP in whole or in part with respect to certain matters. Based on its experience, HP believes that any damage amounts claimed in the specific matters discussed below are not a meaningful indicator of HP’s potential liability. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. However, HP believes it has valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending against it. Nevertheless, cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected in any particular period by the resolution of one or more of these contingencies.
Litigation, Proceedings and Investigations
Copyright Levies. Proceedings are ongoing or have been concluded involving HP in certain European countries, challenging the imposition or the modification of levies regimes upon IT equipment (such as PCs or printers) or the restrictions to exonerate the application of private copying levies on devices purchased by business users. The levies are generally based upon the number of products sold and the per-product amounts of the levies, which vary. Some European countries are expected to implement legislation to introduce or extend existing levy schemes to digital devices. HP, other companies and various industry associations have opposed the extension of levies to the digital product and certain requirements for business sales exemptions and have advocated alternative models of compensation to rights holders.

Based on the exemption of levies on business sales and industry opposition to increasing levies to digital products, HP’s assessments of the merits of various proceedings and HP’s estimates of the number of units impacted and the amounts of the levies, HP has accrued amounts that it believes are adequate to address the ongoing disputes.
India Directorate of Revenue Intelligence Proceedings. On April 30 and May 10, 2010, the India Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (the “DRI”) issued notices to Hewlett-Packard India Sales Private Limited (“HP India”), a subsidiary of HP, seven HP India employees and one former HP India employee alleging that HP India underpaid customs duties while importing products and spare parts into India and seeking to recover an aggregate of approximately $370 million, plus penalties and interest. On April 11, 2012, the Bangalore Commissioner of Customs issued an order on the products-related notice affirming certain duties and penalties against HP India and the named individuals of approximately $386 million (plus interest). On April 20, 2012, the Commissioner issued an order on the parts-related notice affirming duties and penalties against HP India and certain of the named individuals of approximately $17 million. HP India filed appeals of the Commissioner’s orders before the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (the “Customs Tribunal”). The Customs Department also filed cross-appeals before the Customs Tribunal. On October 27, 2014, the Customs Tribunal commenced hearings on the cross-appeals of the Commissioner’s orders and rejected HP India’s request to remand the matter to the Commissioner on procedural grounds. The Customs Tribunal began hearing the parties’ cross appeals on April 10, 2025, and completed the hearing in December 2025. On May 6, 2026, the Customs Tribunal announced that a decision has been adopted, but the content of the decision was not made available to the parties at that time. On June 29, 2026, the Customs Tribunal issued its decision. The Tribunal overturned several duty, interest, penalty and confiscation findings, and eliminated all individual penalties. The revised duty, interest and penalty amounts will be determined through a damage ruling by the Customs Authority. That ruling is expected no earlier than September 2026 and could be issued significantly later. HP intends to appeal the 2026 orders before the Supreme Court of India by August 28, 2026. DRI also is entitled to appeal. Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement, Hewlett Packard Enterprise has agreed to indemnify HP in part, based on the extent to which any liability arises from the products and spare parts of Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s businesses.
Media Content Protection LLC Patent Litigation (formerly Philips Patent Litigation). In September 2020, Koninklijke Philips N.V. and Philips North America LLC (collectively, “Philips”) filed a complaint against HP for patent infringement in federal court for the District of Delaware and filed a companion complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”) pursuant to Section 337 of the Tariff Act against HP and 8 other sets of respondents. Both complaints allege that certain digital video-capable devices and components thereof infringe four of Philips’ patents. In October 2020, the ITC instituted an investigation, and Philips later withdrew two of the four patents. On March 23, 2022, the ITC rendered a final determination that no violation of Section 337 has occurred. Philips did not appeal and elected to resume litigation with its case in federal court. Philips seeks unspecified damages and an injunction against HP, and the prior stay has been lifted. On August 10, 2023, HP filed a motion for summary judgment of indefiniteness for all asserted claims. On July 1, 2024, the district court denied the motion without prejudice to renew. Philips conveyed the patents asserted in the district court action to Media Content Protection LLC (“MCP”), and MCP was substituted as plaintiff in place of Philips. As of November 25, 2025, the district court has ruled that all patents asserted against HP are invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 101, subject to appeal.
In re HP Inc. Derivative Litigation. On May 17, 2021, stockholder Scott Franklin filed a derivative complaint against certain then-current and former officers and directors in federal court in the District of Delaware. Plaintiff purports to bring the action on behalf of HP, which he has named as a nominal defendant, bringing claims for breach of fiduciary duty and violations of securities laws. The derivative plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, governance reforms, and other relief. By court order following stipulations by the parties, the case was transferred to the Northern District of California, and the case was stayed pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss in York County on behalf of the County of York Retirement Fund v. HP Inc., et al. (“York County”), and exhaustion of all related appeals. On January 13, 2022, stockholder Gerald Lovoi filed a derivative complaint in federal court in the Northern District of California against the same current and former officers and directors named in the Franklin action. The complaint alleges the same basic claims based on the same alleged conduct as the Franklin action and seeks similar relief. By stipulation of the parties, the Lovoi action was stayed pending a ruling on the motion to dismiss in York County and exhaustion of all related appeals. On May 31, 2024, the court adopted a stipulation in which the derivative plaintiffs and defendants agreed to consolidate the derivative proceedings, close the Lovoi action, and extend the current stay through summary judgment in the York County action. On April 24, 2026, the derivative plaintiffs filed an unopposed motion for preliminary approval of the settlement set forth in the stipulation and agreement of settlement dated April 22, 2026, which resolves all derivative claims in the consolidated derivative action. The district court preliminarily approved the settlement on May 29, 2026, and the final settlement hearing is scheduled for September 2026.

Legal Proceedings re Authentication of Supplies. Since 2016, HP has from time to time been named in civil litigation, or been the subject of government investigations, involving supplies authentication protocols used in certain HP printers in multiple geographies, including but not limited to the United States, Italy, Israel, the Netherlands, Australia and New Zealand. The supplies authentication protocols are often referred to as Dynamic Security. The core allegations in these proceedings claim misleading or inadequate consumer notifications and permissions pertaining to the use of Dynamic Security, the installation of firmware updates, or the potential inability of cartridges with clone chips or circuitry to work in HP printers with Dynamic Security. Plaintiffs base or have based their claims on various legal theories, including but not limited to unfair competition, computer trespass, and similar statutory claims. Among other relief, Plaintiffs have sought or seek money damages and in certain cases have or may seek injunctive relief against the use or operation of Dynamic Security or relief requiring interoperability. If HP is not successful in its defense of these cases or investigations, it could be subject to damages, penalties, significant settlement demands, or injunctive relief that may be costly or may disrupt operations. Certain of these proceedings in the United States, Italy, the Netherlands, Israel, Australia and New Zealand have been resolved, have concluded, or have concluded subject only to HP’s pending appeal. Digital Revolution B.V. (trading as 123Inkt) filed civil litigation, including competition claims, against HP Nederlands B.V., et al. (Netherlands) in March 2020. HP substantially prevailed before the trial court, and both parties appealed. On November 19, 2024, the court of appeal issued a decision rejecting competition claims against HP and providing that use of Dynamic Security by HP is not unlawful. On February 18, 2025, Digital Revolution filed a cassation appeal against the decision before the Dutch Supreme Court. On December 12, 2025 the Attorney General issued his non-binding opinion advising the Supreme Court to reject the appeal. The Dutch Supreme Court issued its decision on June 5, 2026, rejecting competition claims against HP and providing that use of Dynamic Security by HP is not unlawful. In addition, a putative class action was filed against HP in federal court in Illinois in January 2024, arising out of the use of Dynamic Security firmware updates in HP printers. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, restitution, injunctive relief against alleged unfair and anticompetitive business practices, and other relief. On September 30, 2025, the court dismissed the complaint in its entirety but gave plaintiffs leave to file an amended complaint. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. The court has set a hearing in August 2026 to address HP’s motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The case is in its early stages.
Autonomy-Related Legal Proceedings. In 2015, four former Hewlett Packard Company subsidiaries that became subsidiaries of Hewlett Packard Enterprise at the time of the Separation (Autonomy Corporation Limited, Hewlett Packard Vision BV, Autonomy Systems Limited, and Autonomy, Inc., hereinafter the “Claimants”) initiated civil proceedings in the U.K. High Court of Justice against two members of Autonomy’s former management, Michael Lynch and Sushovan Hussain, for breach of their fiduciary duties in causing Autonomy group companies to engage in improper transactions and accounting practices before and in connection with the 2011 acquisition of Autonomy. Trial concluded in January 2020. In May 2022, the court issued its liability judgment, finding that the Claimants had succeeded on substantially all claims and that Messrs. Lynch and Hussain engaged in fraud, and dismissing a counterclaim filed by Mr. Lynch. The court deferred the issue of damages to further proceedings, but indicated that damages awarded may be substantially less than was claimed. In February 2024, the court held a two-week trial on damages, the Claimants sought recovery for $4 billion in losses, and the court took the issue under advisement. In May 2025, Claimants reached an agreement with Mr. Hussain to resolve claims against him. On July 22, 2025, the court issued its ruling on the quantum of damages, finding that the Lynch estate owed approximately 740 million pounds. The court held a hearing for the week of November 17, 2025, to address additional matters, including attorneys’ fees, pre-judgment interest, and the relevant date to use for the exchange rate to convert the recovery from pounds to dollars. On March 24, 2026, the court entered its judgment, awarding damages plus interest totaling $1.24 billion, and denying the Lynch estate’s request for permission to appeal. The damages award includes a set-off for prior settlements. The Lynch estate filed a request for permission to appeal with the appellate level court. The Claimants have opposed that request. On August 25, 2026, the Court of Appeal denied the Lynch Estate's request for permission to appeal most issues raised by the Estate. The appeal may proceed on a limited number of issues relating primarily to damages. Litigation is unpredictable, and there can be no assurance of a recovery. Any amount ultimately recovered would be recorded in the period received. No adjustment has been recorded in the financial statements in relation to this potential recovery. Pursuant to the terms of the separation and distribution agreement, HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise will share equally in any recovery.

Standard Essential Patent matters. HP is engaged in a number of patent-related matters involving patents asserted to be essential to industry standards (such as Wi Fi). This includes discussions with third parties regarding patent license arrangements and, in some instances, litigation. Based on HP’s assessment of various matters, HP has accrued amounts for those matters for which a loss is probable and reasonably estimable.
Environmental
HP is, and may become a party to, proceedings brought by U.S., state, or other governmental entities or private third parties under federal, state, local, or foreign environmental laws, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), known as “Superfund,” or state laws similar to CERCLA. HP is also conducting environmental investigations or remediation at several current or former operating sites and former disposal sites pursuant to administrative orders or consent agreements with environmental agencies.
Tariffs
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court held that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were not authorized by statute which removed the obligation for and collection of related tariffs. As of July 31, 2026, the Company has applied for the recovery of approximately $0.3 billion of previously paid IEEPA tariffs. The Company received $127 91 million subsequent to the reporting period. Refunds are recognized as a reduction of Products cost of net revenue when received.
Note 12: Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranties
Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, HP may issue performance guarantees to certain of its clients, customers and other parties pursuant to which HP has guaranteed the performance obligations of third parties. Some of those guarantees may be backed by standby letters of credit or surety bonds. In general, HP would be obligated to perform over the term of the guarantee in the event a specified triggering event occurs as defined by the guarantee. HP believes the likelihood of having to perform under a material guarantee is remote.
Cross-Indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise
On November 1, 2015, Hewlett-Packard Company completed the separation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Hewlett-Packard Company’s former enterprise technology infrastructure, software, services and financing businesses. The separation and distribution agreement provides for cross-indemnities between HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise for liabilities allocated to the respective party pursuant to the terms of such agreement. For information on cross-indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise for litigation matters, see Note 11, “Litigation and Contingencies”.
Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, HP enters into contractual arrangements under which HP may agree to indemnify a third-party to such arrangement from any losses incurred relating to the services they perform on behalf of HP or for losses arising from certain events as defined within the particular contract, which may include, for example, litigation or claims relating to past performance. HP also provides indemnifications to certain vendors and customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the vendors’ and customers’ use of HP’s software products and services and certain other matters. Some indemnifications may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, payments made related to these indemnifications have been immaterial.
HP records tax indemnification receivables from various third parties for certain tax liabilities that HP is jointly and severally liable for, but for which it is indemnified by those same third parties under existing legal agreements. HP records a tax indemnification payable to various third parties under these agreements when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The actual amount that the third parties pay or may be obligated to pay HP could vary depending on the outcome of certain unresolved tax matters, which may not be resolved for several years.

Warranties
HP accrues the estimated cost of product warranties at the time it recognizes revenue. HP engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of its component suppliers; however, contractual warranty terms, repair costs, product call rates, average cost per call, current period product shipments and ongoing product failure rates, as well as specific product class failures outside of HP’s baseline experience, affect the estimated warranty obligation.

Unconditional Purchase Obligations
HP’s unconditional purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on HP and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, fixed, minimum or variable price and volume provisions and the approximate timing of the transaction. Unconditional purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancellable without penalty. The Company's purchase obligations under variable price provisions approximate market prices at the time of purchase and are estimated using current period pricing. Actual future variable price purchase commitments may significantly vary depending on market prices and product mix at the time of purchase. The Company's unconditional purchase obligations are primarily related to inventory and service support.
As of July 31, 2026, unconditional purchase obligations were as follows:

We have consolidated all our software resources under the Technology and Innovation Organization to evolve from a transactional hardware company to a more experience-led organization, further strengthening our ability to capture these opportunities.
We continue to experience challenges that are representative of the trends and uncertainties that may affect our industry, generally, and our business and financial results, specifically, and we expect these challenges to continue in the short-term. One set of challenges relates to the current macroeconomic environment and the adverse impact on demand for certain of our products. A second set of challenges relates to changes in the competitive landscape. Our primary competitors are exerting competitive pressure in targeted areas and are entering new markets, our emerging competitors are introducing new
39
technologies and business models, and our alliance partners in some businesses are increasingly becoming our competitors in others. A third set of challenges relates to business model changes and our go-to-market execution in an evolving distribution and reseller landscape, with increasing online and omnichannel presence. Specific challenges we face at the segment level are set forth below.
•In Personal Systems, we face challenges with a competitive pricing environment, increasing commodity costs, particularly in memory and storage costs, and the uncertainty of the market’s ability to absorb price increases.
•In Printing, we face challenges from changing customer behaviors as well as competitors with a favorable foreign currency environment and non-original supplies (which includes imitation, refill, or remanufactured alternatives). We also obtain many Printing components from single source suppliers due to technology, availability, price, quality, or other considerations.
To address these challenges, we continue to pursue innovation with a view towards developing new products and services aligned with generating market demand and meeting the needs of our customers and partners. In addition, we continue to work on improving our operations and adapting our business models, with a particular focus on enhancing our end-to-end processes, analytics, efficiencies and simplification of our product portfolio. We also continue to work on optimizing our sales coverage models, aligning our sales incentives with our strategic goals, improving channel execution and inventory, production and backlog management, strengthening our capabilities in our areas of strategic focus, effective cost management, strengthening our pricing strategy, and developing and capitalizing on market opportunities.
Macroeconomic Environment
Our business and financial performance depend significantly on worldwide economic conditions. We face global macroeconomic challenges such as ongoing geopolitical conflicts, uncertainty in the markets, volatility in exchange rates, inflationary trends and evolving dynamics in the global trade environment. We also experience seasonality in the sale of our products and services which may be affected by general economic conditions.
Since April 2025, new, substantial tariffs have been imposed on imports to the United States. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court held that tariffs imposed under the IEEPA were not authorized by statute which removed the obligation for and collection of related tariffs. As of July 31, 2026, we have applied for the recovery of approximately $0.3 billion of previously paid IEEPA tariffs. We have received $127 million of refunds during the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, and $91 million subsequent to the reporting period. Refunds are recognized as a reduction of Products cost of net revenue when received. We are continuing to assess the recoverability of additional IEEPA tariffs previously paid, as well as the effects of any additional tariffs or trade actions that may be imposed.
During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, we experienced higher inflationary pressure in memory and storage costs and supply constraints in our Personal Systems business, which we anticipate will continue. We continue to evaluate and implement mitigating actions, including potential supply chain resiliency movements and cost and pricing measures, as the trade and supply environments evolve.
New or sustained changes to tariffs and commodity costs could result in increased supply chain challenges, cost volatility, and consumer and economic uncertainty which may have a significant adverse impact to our results of operations and cash flows to the extent our efforts do not fully mitigate these effects.
We are also exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have a large global presence, with more than 65% of our net revenue from outside the United States. As a result, our financial results can be impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our operating results, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025.
Transformation Update
On November 25, 2025, we announced our Fiscal 2026 Plan intended to drive customer satisfaction, product innovation, and productivity primarily through artificial intelligence adoption and enablement that HP expects will be implemented through fiscal 2028. During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, we took actions to integrate AI into our channel partner experience and scale additional AI agents in our supply chain operations and expect to continue to accelerate and scale these initiatives. We additionally took actions to reduce headcount through the EER program of which a significant portion will get executed during fiscal year 2026.
See “Risk Factors—Strategic and Operational Risks—We may not achieve some or all of the expected benefits of our restructuring and other plans and such plans may adversely affect our business” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on
40
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025. For more information on our Fiscal 2026 Plan, see Note 3, “Restructuring and Other Charges,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
For a summary of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements see Note 1, “Basis of Presentation”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
MD&A is based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended July 31, 2026 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting estimates in MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue from our international operations has historically represented, and we expect will continue to represent, a majority of our overall net revenue. As a result, our net revenue growth has been impacted, and we expect it will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In order to provide a framework for assessing performance excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, we supplement the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue with the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations calculated by translating current period revenues using monthly exchange rates from the comparative period and excluding any hedging impact recognized in the current period, and without adjusting for any repricing or demand impacts from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This information is provided so that net revenue can be viewed with and without the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which is consistent with how management evaluates our net revenue results and trends, as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of ongoing operating results. The constant currency measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a GAAP basis. Other companies may calculate and define similarly labeled items differently, which may limit the usefulness of this measure for comparative purposes.

Net Revenue
Products net revenue includes revenue from the sale of hardware, supplies, subscriptions and software licenses. Services net revenue includes revenue from our service offerings and support on hardware devices.
For the three months ended July 31, 2026, net revenue increased 12.5% (increased 10.9% on a constant currency basis) as compared to the prior-year period. Net revenue from international operations increased 16.8% to $10.4 billion, while U.S. net revenue increased 5.1% to $5.3 billion. The increase in net revenue was primarily driven by products net revenue due to pricing actions to mitigate higher commodity costs in Personal Systems and favorable currency impacts, partially offset by demand softness in Printing. Services net revenue increased due to support services on hardware devices.
For the nine months ended July 31, 2026, total net revenue increased 9.5% (increased 7.5% on a constant currency basis) as compared to the prior-year period. Net revenue from international operations increased 13.7% to $30.1 billion, while U.S. net revenue increased 1.6% to $14.4 billion. The increase in net revenue was primarily driven by products net revenue due to pricing actions to mitigate higher commodity costs in Personal Systems, partially offset by demand softness and competitive pressures in Printing. Services net revenue increased due to support services on hardware devices.
A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment net revenue is included in “Segment Information” below.
Gross Margin
For the three months ended July 31, 2026, gross margin decreased 1.7 percentage points primarily driven by higher commodity costs and unfavorable mix shifts towards Personal Systems, partially offset by pricing actions including favorable currency impacts, and IEEPA tariff refunds. Services gross margin increased due to favorable mix shifts.
For the nine months ended July 31, 2026, gross margin decreased 0.9 percentage points primarily driven by products gross margin due to higher commodity costs and unfavorable mix shifts towards Personal Systems, partially offset by pricing actions including favorable currency impacts, and IEEPA tariff refunds. Services gross margin increased due to favorable mix shifts.
A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment gross margins is included under “Segment Information” below.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development (“R&D”)
R&D expense decreased 4.2% for the three months ended July 31, 2026, primarily driven by favorable net R&D partner funding, partially offset by higher variable compensation.
R&D expense increased 0.7% for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 primarily driven by higher variable compensation.
Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”)
SG&A expense increased 5.9% and 3.7% for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 primarily driven by higher variable compensation, partially offset by disciplined cost management.
Restructuring and Other Charges
Restructuring and other charges decreased $62 million for the three months ended July 31, 2026 driven by severance activity under the Fiscal 2023 Plan in the prior period.
Restructuring and other charges increased $237 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 primarily driven by the EER program under the Fiscal 2026 Plan.
For more information, see Note 3, “Restructuring and other charges”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Acquisition and Divestiture Charges
Acquisition and divestiture charges for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 decreased by $4 million and $25 million, respectively, primarily due to lower acquisition and integration activities.
43
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets decreased $84 million and $67 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, respectively, primarily driven by higher impairment charges of $69 million and $37 million, respectively, in the prior periods.
Interest and Other, Net
Interest and other, net expense remained flat for the three months ended July 31, 2026 primarily due to a gain from a single litigation matter that does not relate to HP’s ongoing business operations recorded in the prior period, offset by lower interest expense on debt and factoring costs in the current period.
Interest and other, net expense decreased $80 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 primarily due to lower interest expense on debt and factoring costs in the current period, partially offset by a gain from a single litigation matter that does not relate to HP’s ongoing business operations recorded in the prior period.
Provision for Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 17.2% for the three months ended July 31, 2026 and 15.6% for the nine months ended July 31, 2026. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and our effective tax rate for the three months ended July 31, 2026 was primarily due to decreases in unrecognized tax benefits. For the nine months ended July 31, 2026, the difference was primarily due to decreases in unrecognized tax benefits and audit settlements in various jurisdictions.

Three months ended July 31, 2026 compared with three months ended July 31, 2025
Personal Systems net revenue increased 18.5% (increased 16.7% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended July 31, 2026. The net revenue increase was primarily due to a 40.8% increase in ASPs, partially offset by a 15.8% decrease in PCs unit volume driven by a focus on higher value units in an increasing commodity cost environment. The increase in ASPs is primarily due to pricing actions to mitigate higher commodity costs, favorable currency impacts and mix shifts.
Commercial PS net revenue increased 21.9% primarily due to a 41.1% increase in ASPs, partially offset by a 13.6% decrease in units. The increase in ASPs is primarily due to pricing actions, favorable currency impacts and mix shifts towards premium.
Consumer PS net revenue increased 10.1% primarily due to a 37.1% increase in ASPs, partially offset by a 19.4% decrease in units. The increase in ASPs was primarily due to pricing actions and favorable currency impacts partially offset by unfavorable mix shifts.
Personal Systems earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 0.8 percentage points driven by a decrease in gross margin, partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue. Gross margin decreased primarily due to higher commodity costs, partially offset by pricing actions, IEEPA tariff refunds and favorable currency impacts. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased primarily driven by disciplined cost management and favorable net R&D partner funding, partially offset by higher variable compensation.

Nine months ended July 31, 2026 compared with nine months ended July 31, 2025
Personal Systems net revenue increased 14.4% (increased 12.1% on a constant currency basis) for the nine months ended July 31, 2026. The net revenue increase was primarily due to a 19.8% increase in ASPs, partially offset by a 4.2% decrease in PC unit volume. The decrease in PC unit volume was driven by an increasing commodity cost environment, partially offset by the Windows-based PC operating system refresh. The increase in ASPs is primarily due to pricing actions to mitigate higher commodity costs, as well as favorable currency impacts. Consequently, the cost environment drove an increase in ASPs and decrease in PC unit volume in both Commercial and Consumer PS.
Commercial PS net revenue increased 15.2% primarily due to a 20.2% increase in ASPs, partially offset by a 3.7% decrease in PC unit volume.
Consumer PS net revenue increased 12.2% primarily due to a 18.4% increase in ASPs, partially offset by a 5.0% decrease in PC unit volume.
Personal Systems earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 0.3 percentage points driven by a decrease in gross margin, partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue. Gross margin decreased primarily due to higher commodity costs, partially offset by pricing actions including favorable currency impacts. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased due to disciplined cost management, partially offset by higher variable compensation.

48
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We use cash generated by operations as our primary source of liquidity. We believe that current cash, cash flow from operating activities, new borrowings, available commercial paper authorization and the credit facility will be sufficient to meet HP’s operating cash requirements, planned capital expenditures, interest and principal payments on all borrowings, pension and post-retirement funding requirements, authorized share repurchases and annual dividend payments for the foreseeable future. Additionally, if suitable acquisition opportunities arise, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the required financing through additional borrowings. While our access to capital markets may be constrained and our cost of borrowing may increase under certain business, market and economic conditions, our access to a variety of funding sources to meet our liquidity needs is designed to facilitate continued access to capital resources under all such conditions. Our liquidity is subject to various risks including the risks identified in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 and the market risks identified in the section entitled “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Item 3 of Part I of this report.
Amounts held outside of the U.S. are generally utilized to support non-U.S. liquidity needs and may from time to time be distributed to the U.S. Repatriations of amounts held outside the U.S. generally will not be taxable from a U.S. federal tax perspective but may be subject to state income or foreign withholding tax upon repatriation. As we evaluate the future cash needs of our operations, we may revise the amount of foreign earnings considered to be permanently reinvested in our foreign subsidiaries and how to utilize such funds, including reducing our gross debt level, or other uses.

Operating Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2025, net cash provided by operating activities increased $1.0 billion for the nine months ended July 31, 2026, primarily due to favorable changes in working capital, partially offset by changes in receivables from contract manufacturers.

Key Working Capital Metrics
Management utilizes current cash conversion cycle information to manage our working capital level. Our working capital metrics and cash conversion cycle impacts were as follows:
| As of | |||||||||||||||||
| July 31, 2026 | July 31, 2025 | Y/Y Change | |||||||||||||||
| Days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable (“DSO”) | 41 | 33 | 8 | ||||||||||||||
Days of inventory outstanding (“DIO”) | 73 | 68 | 5 | ||||||||||||||
| Days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable (“DPO”) | (151) | (138) | (13) | ||||||||||||||
| Cash conversion cycle | (37) | (37) | — | ||||||||||||||
July 31, 2026 as compared to July 31, 2025
The cash conversion cycle is the sum of DSO and DIO less DPO. Items which may cause the cash conversion cycle in a particular period to differ from historical trends include, but are not limited to, changes in business mix, changes in payment terms and timing, timing and extent of receivables factoring, seasonal trends and the timing of revenue recognition and inventory purchases within the period.
DSO measures the average number of days our receivables are outstanding. DSO is calculated by dividing ending accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses, by a 90-day average net revenue. The increase in DSO was primarily due to lower factoring, partially offset by favorable revenue linearity.
DIO measures the average number of days from procurement to sale of our product. DIO is calculated by dividing ending inventory by a 90-day average cost of goods sold. The increase in DIO was primarily due to higher commodity costs, partially offset by inventory optimization.
DPO measures the average number of days our accounts payable balances are outstanding. DPO is calculated by dividing ending accounts payable by a 90-day average cost of goods sold. The increase in DPO was primarily due to higher commodity costs, partially offset by working capital management activities.
Investing Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2025, net cash used in investing activities decreased by $0.6 billion for the nine months ended July 31, 2026, primarily due to a $0.4 billion favorable net decrease in collateral posted for derivative instruments, lower payments in connection with business acquisitions of $0.1 billion, and lower investment in property, plant, equipment and purchased intangible of $0.1 billion.
Financing Activities
Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2025, net cash used in financing activities increased by $0.8 billion for the nine months ended July 31, 2026, primarily due to a $0.4 billion increase in net debt repayments and $0.4 billion increase in share repurchases.
Share Repurchases and Dividends
During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, HP returned $1.5 billion to shareholders in the form of cash dividends of $0.8 billion and share repurchases of $0.7 billion. As of July 31, 2026, HP had approximately $7.7 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorization approved by HP’s Board of Directors.
For more information on our share repurchases, see Note 9, “Stockholders’ Deficit”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Capital Resources
Debt Levels
| As of | |||||||||||
| July 31, 2026 | October 31, 2025 | ||||||||||
| Dollars in millions | |||||||||||
| Short-term debt | $ | 1,292 | $ | 845 | |||||||
| Long-term debt | $ | 7,868 | $ | 8,821 | |||||||
| Weighted-average interest rate | 4.8 | % | 4.6 | % | |||||||
We maintain debt levels that we establish through consideration of a number of factors, including cash flow expectations, cash requirements for operations, investment plans (including acquisitions), share repurchase activities, our cost of capital and targeted capital structure.
Our weighted-average interest rate reflects the effective rate on our borrowings prevailing during the period and reflects the effect of interest rate swaps. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 7, “Financial Instruments”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
As of July 31, 2026, we maintained a $5.0 billion sustainability-linked senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility which will be available until August 1, 2029. Funds borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes.
Available Borrowing Resources
As of July 31, 2026, we had available borrowing resources of $0.9 billion from uncommitted lines of credit in addition to funds available under the revolving credit facility.
In February 2024, we filed an automatically effective shelf registration statement with the SEC, which enables us to offer for sale, at any time and from time to time, in one or more offerings, an unspecified amount of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depository shares and warrants.
For more information on our borrowings, see Note 8, “Borrowings”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Credit Ratings
Our credit risk is evaluated by major independent rating agencies based upon publicly available information as well as information they obtain during our ongoing discussions. While we currently do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of a material amount of our debt, a downgrade from our current credit rating may increase the cost of borrowing under our credit facility, reduce market capacity for our commercial paper, require the posting of additional collateral under some of our derivative contracts and may have a negative impact on our liquidity and capital position and our contractual business going forward, depending on the extent of such downgrade. We can access alternative sources of funding, including drawdowns under our credit facility, if necessary, to offset potential reductions in the market capacity for our commercial paper.
51
CONTRACTUAL AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS
Unconditional Purchase Obligation
Purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on HP and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Unconditional purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancellable without penalty. The Company's purchase obligations under variable price provisions approximate market prices at the time of purchase and are estimated using current period pricing. Actual future variable price purchase commitments may significantly vary depending on market prices and product mix at the time of purchase. The Company's unconditional purchase obligations are primarily related to inventory and service support. As of July 31, 2026, the Company had outstanding purchase commitments of $2.1 billion. The majority of these commitments are due within five years. For more information, see Note 13, “Commitments,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plan Contributions
As of July 31, 2026, we anticipate making contributions for the remainder of fiscal year 2026 of approximately $9 million to our non-U.S. pension plans and $7 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified pension plan participants, and $1 million to cover benefit claims for our post-retirement benefit plans. Our policy is to fund our pension plans so that we meet the minimum contribution required by local government, funding and taxing authorities. During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, HP contributed $60 million to its non-U.S. pension plans, paid $20 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified plan participants and paid $5 million to cover benefit claims under HP’s post-retirement benefit plans. For more information on our retirement and post-retirement benefit plans, see Note 4, “Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plans”, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025.
Cost Savings Plan
As a result of our approved restructuring plans, we expect to make future cash payments of approximately $0.2 billion. For more information on our restructuring activities that are part of our cost improvements, see Note 3, “Restructuring and Other Charges”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Uncertain Tax Positions
As of July 31, 2026, we had approximately $640 million of recorded liabilities and related interest and penalties pertaining to uncertain tax positions. We are unable to make a reasonable estimate as to when cash settlement with the tax authorities might occur due to the uncertainties related to these tax matters. Payments of these liabilities would result from settlements with taxing authorities. For more information on our uncertain tax positions, see Note 4, “Taxes on Earnings”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As part of our ongoing business, we have not participated in transactions that generate material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.
HP utilizes certain third-party arrangements in the normal course of business as part of HP’s cash and liquidity management and also to provide liquidity to certain partners to facilitate their working capital requirements. For more information on our third-party short-term financing arrangements, see Note 5, “Supplementary Financial Information”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting HP, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since October 31, 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to HP’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended July 31, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
