HP Inc. (HPQ)

Over the past six months, HPQ's stock price has declined. Key events include the Q4 2025 earnings report where HP surpassed estimates, CES 2026 announcements which led to a modest stock increase, and a dividend declaration that was met with a negative stock reaction. The resignation of CEO Enrique Lores and a subsequent downgrade from Bank of America led to a significant stock drop. HP is expected to release its Q1 fiscal 2026 earnings on February 24, 2026.

Demand for HP Inc.'s products and services exhibits seasonality. The PC market experiences seasonal growth, with "back to school seasonality" being a contributing factor. The print business also experiences market volatility.

HP Inc. is a multinational IT company providing sustainable devices, services, and subscriptions for personal computing, printing, 3D printing, hybrid work, and gaming. It is the world's second-largest PC vendor by unit sales as of 2024. HP's products include personal computers, printers (DeskJet, OfficeJet, LaserJet, Envy, ScanJet), 3D printers, monitors, and computer accessories.

HP Inc. has a broad global customer base, with only about one-third of its sales originating from the United States. Its geographic segments include the United States, Other countries, and Asia-Pacific and Japan.

HP's brand reputation has been impacted by product innovation and corporate news. While product innovation drew modestly positive responses, the unexpected resignation of CEO Enrique Lores and a subsequent downgrade by Bank of America negatively affected the company's stock and reputation.

As of December 2025, HP Inc. has 453 active institutional owners and shareholders. Major institutional holders include Vanguard Group Inc., BlackRock, Inc., State Street Corp., and Dodge & Cox.
