HP Inc. Reports Fiscal 2025 First Quarter Results

First quarter net revenue was $13.5 billion, up 2.4% from the prior-year period.

HP Inc. and its subsidiaries announced fiscal 2025 first quarter net revenue of $13.5 billion, up 2.4% (up 3.3% in constant currency) from the prior-year period.

“We are pleased with our Q1 performance, achieving revenue growth for the third straight quarter and advancing our strategy to lead the future of work,” said Enrique Lores, HP president and CEO. “Our progress was fueled by a strong commercial business in Personal Systems and momentum in our key growth areas, including AI PCs. We are focused on taking decisive action to address evolving market conditions in the near-term, while investing in our long-term growth.”

“In Q1 we drove solid progress against our financial commitments for the year and are raising our Future Ready savings target from $1.6 to $1.9 billion dollars by the end of fiscal year 2025,” said Karen Parkhill, HP CFO. “We are holding our outlook for the year and remain focused on disciplined execution as we continue to invest for the future.”

HP’s net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was $0.4 billion. HP generated $70 million of free cash flow in the first quarter.

Fiscal 2025 first quarter segment results:
• Personal Systems net revenue was $9.2 billion, up 5% year over year (up 5% in constant currency) with a 5.5% operating margin. Consumer PS net revenue was down 7% and Commercial PS net revenue was up 10%. Total units were down 1% with Consumer PS units down 11% and Commercial PS units up 6%.
• Printing net revenue was $4.3 billion, down 2% year over year (down 1% in constant currency) with a 19.0% operating margin. Consumer Printing net revenue was up 5% and Commercial Printing net revenue was down 7%. Supplies net revenue was down 1% (flat in constant currency). Total hardware units were up 5%, with Consumer Printing units up 7% and Commercial Printing units flat.

For fiscal 2025, HP anticipates generating free cash flow in the range of $3.2 to $3.6 billion.

HP’s outlook reflects the added cost driven by the current U.S. tariff increases on China, and associated mitigations. The company has made significant progress building a globally diverse supply chain, and by the end of fiscal year 2025, expects more than 90% of HP products sold in North America will be built outside of China. China will continue to be an important manufacturing hub for the rest of the world.
