HPE Reports Fourth-Quarter Revenue Miss And Low Server Sales
Hewlett Packard Enterprise reported fourth-quarter revenue of $9.68 billion on Thursday, up 14% year-over-year but below the $9.94 billion LSEG consensus, and posted adjusted earnings of $0.62 per share. Server revenue declined to $4.46 billion, down 5% year-over-year, which the company attributed to timing of AI service shipments and weaker government spending. HPE guided fiscal Q1 2026 revenue of $9.0–9.4 billion, under FactSet expectations.
