Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. (HPE)

Over the past six months, HPE's stock price has increased. As of October 24, 2025, the share price was $23.50, a 20.76% increase from October 25, 2024. Over the last 12 months, the stock's price has increased by 17.01%, with a year-to-date return of 9.01%. In the past month, the stock decreased by 7.48%. HPE's stock gained 1.5% following the release of its Q2 results on September 3, 2025. HPE completed the acquisition of Juniper Networks in early July 2025, which is expected to expand its networking business. The company also added Robert Calderoni to its board in July, reaching a truce with activist investor Elliott Investment Management.

Demand for HPE's products and services is influenced by several factors. The company has experienced strong demand in its server and networking segments, particularly driven by the surge in demand for AI servers. The HPE GreenLake hybrid cloud platform has also shown strong traction. While enterprise demand generally persists across HPE's portfolio, there have been instances of networking demand softening industry-wide and customers taking longer to digest prior orders. HPE anticipates some improvement in the networking market in late fiscal 2024 as inventory clears and customers, such as U.S. state and local education buyers, enter their IT purchasing season. The acquisition of Juniper Networks is expected to further accelerate HPE's edge-to-cloud product suite and provide a full networking stack, which could impact future demand patterns.
