Last earnings call, Sep 2, 2026 AI summary

What they said
HPE delivered record Q3 FY2026 results with revenue of $12.2 billion, up 34% YoY, driven by AI demand and Juniper integration. Non-GAAP gross margin hit a record 40%, operating profit reached $2 billion (2.5x YoY), and EPS of $1.11 marked the first time exceeding $1.00 in a single quarter. Record orders exceeded revenue, creating a record backlog, though supply constraints limited fulfillment. Free cash flow reached $958 million, a Q3 record.
Guidance
HPE raised its outlook for both FY2026 and FY2027 following record results, record orders, and record backlog. Specific targets were deferred to CFO Marie Myers' remarks. Management expressed confidence in sustained profitable growth momentum.
