Key Highlights
HP Inc. issued a softer-than-expected forecast for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 during its latest earnings report. Following the announcement, the company’s stock dropped significantly in after-hours trading, reflecting investor concerns over the weaker outlook and broader market challenges.
HP’s Q1 Guidance
HP projected revenue and earnings per share for Q1 below Wall Street estimates, signaling potential headwinds in its core businesses. The company cited weaker demand in its PC and printer segments as primary reasons for the subdued guidance.
Factors Impacting Performance

Declining PC Demand: As the global PC market struggles to recover from pandemic-era highs, HP continues to face reduced demand, particularly in consumer-focused segments.
Printer Segment Challenges: Revenue from the printing division is expected to remain under pressure due to reduced business spending and elevated competition.
Macroeconomic Uncertainty: Broader economic challenges, including inflationary pressures and cautious enterprise spending, further dampen growth expectations.

Market Reaction
HP shares fell sharply in after-hours trading, underscoring investor disappointment over the company’s cautious outlook. Analysts are likely to revisit their price targets and recommendations in light of the updated guidance.
Related Insights
For a closer analysis of earnings trends, tools like Earnings Calendar can help track upcoming announcements, while the Earnings Transcripts API provides detailed transcripts for deeper insights into company performance.
Conclusion
HP’s softer Q1 guidance highlights ongoing challenges in the tech hardware sector, as the company navigates declining demand and macroeconomic pressures. Investors will be closely monitoring HP’s strategies to address these issues and regain momentum.
