14 DAY TRIAL // There are quite a few companies that one does not expect to hear as having revenue difficulties. And if you were to ask me, HP would have been one of them. However, things might not go as well as some would think.
Dubbed as a “fix and rebuild year,” 2013 has up until now seen HP as a company trying to balance performance and growth. In short, it focused more on cost than on revenue.
According to Techcrunch, HP admitted that consumer PC revenue fell by 22 percent, with commercial PC sales dropping by only 3 percent.
Not much, but add it up and it doesn't look extremely good. However, HP CEO Meg Whitman assures us that everything is going according to plan. Whether it is or not, it remains to be seen.
However, to my knowledge, waiting for your competition to die out could prove to be quite the risky endeavor.
