Movement Alert|HP Inc. Falls 5.01% in Regular Trading, Goldman Sachs Bearish Call Combined with Lowered Profit Guidance Triggers Selloff

Market Focus06-03

On June 3, HP Inc. fell 5.01% in regular trading, trading at $27.825/share, with trading volume of $450 million.

On the news front, Goldman Sachs recently issued a report maintaining a bearish stance on HP, citing approximately 35% downside risk despite the stock's recent rally driven by AI PC momentum. The selloff was further compounded by HP's decision to lower its full-year adjusted EPS upper limit from $3.20 to $3.10, warning that rising memory costs will continue to pressure profit margins.

HP's fiscal Q2 results, reported on May 27, showed revenue of $14.4 billion (up 9.2% YoY) and adjusted EPS of $0.86, both exceeding expectations. However, the company narrowed its full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $2.90-$3.10, with management cautioning that the memory and storage environment remains tight. Analysts noted that while double-digit PC pricing growth boosted segment performance, some demand may have been pulled forward, potentially weakening Q4 earnings. Additionally, HP previously announced a global workforce reduction of 4,000 to 6,000 employees as part of its restructuring efforts.
