Dell’s Differentiated Enterprise Solutions and Services Driving Long-Term Value and Growth

Business Wire
Dell is moving deeper into the core of information technology
with its own intellectual property that delivers efficient,
flexible and differentiated IT solutions to millions of customers
worldwide, Michael Dell, chairman and CEO, said today in advance of
the company’s analysts meeting on Wednesday.
Dell’s mid-market design focus provides open systems that are
highly capable, affordable and flexible enough to scale to meet the
needs of large enterprises, public institutions and mid-size
businesses. That focus is competitively differentiated and creates
value for customers based on a set of solutions
domains: next-generation computing solutions and intelligent
data management; services, security and cloud; and, end-user
computing.
“Over the past year we have made great progress towards our
strategy,” Mr. Dell said. “Dell today has its strongest-ever
portfolio of solutions, intellectual property and differentiated
products, backed by new skills and capabilities in our global team.
We also have fundamentally redefined our operations to optimize our
global value chain and it is showing in our financial results.”
Brian Gladden, Dell CFO, outlined the key priorities underway to
allow the company to deliver on its long-term value creation
framework of 5-7 percent revenue growth, GAAP operating income of
more than 7 percent and cash flow from operations exceeding net
income. Those priorities include accelerated enterprise growth,
disciplined cost management and operational improvements, and
continued profitable growth in laptop and desktop products. Over
the past four quarters, Dell’s revenue has exceeded the long-term
growth goal, GAAP operating income has been 6.7 percent and cash
flow has been $4.2 billion, which was 1.3 times net income.
Mr. Gladden also reported that, fiscal year-to-date, Dell has
repurchased $1.6 billion in stock and expects to repurchase more
than $2 billion in stock during the current fiscal year.
“Dell is committed to a capital allocation strategy that
includes investments in developing and acquiring new intellectual
property, enhancing our sales capabilities and in our ongoing
stock-repurchase program,” Mr. Gladden said.
More than 150 analysts and investment bankers have registered
for the meeting, which will be webcast live and be available on
replay after the event. To view the live webcast of the meeting
