About HP

HP is a technology solutions provider to consumers, businesses and institutions globally. The company's offerings span IT infrastructure, global services, business and home computing, and imaging and printing. For the four fiscal quarters ended Jan. 31, 2006, HP revenue totaled $87.9 billion. More information about HP is available at www.hp.com.

(1) Non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are defined to exclude the effects of restructuring charges, charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets, in-process research and development charges and gains or losses on investments. A reconciliation of adjustments to GAAP results for this quarter and prior periods is included in the tables below. A description of HP's use of non-GAAP information is provided under "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information."

(2) Gross cash is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as GAAP cash and cash equivalents plus GAAP short-term investments and certain long-term investments that may be liquidated within 90 days pursuant to the terms of existing put options or similar rights. As of Jan. 31, 2006 cash and cash equivalents amounted to $11.9 billion and short- and long-term investments included in gross cash amounted to $12 million and $18 million, respectively.

Use of non-GAAP financial information

To supplement HP's consolidated condensed financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, HP provides non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and gross cash. HP also provides forecasts of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share.

HP's management uses non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to evaluate and forecast HP's baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside of HP's core business segment operating results. Gross cash is considered to be a liquidity measure and provides useful information to management about the amount of cash available for investment in HP's businesses, funding strategic acquisitions, repurchasing stock and other purposes. Each of these non-GAAP measures is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide both management and investors with a more complete understanding of the underlying operating results and trends and an enhanced overall understanding of HP's financial performance, liquidity and prospects for the future.

This additional non-GAAP information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating margin, net income, diluted earnings per share or cash and cash equivalents prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the attached tables. In addition, there may be limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. For example, items such as restructuring charges that are excluded from non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share can have a material impact on cash flows. In addition, there may be restrictions on our ability to liquidate the long-term investments included in gross cash, which may limit the usefulness of gross cash as a liquidity measure. These effects are reflected in our GAAP financial statements, including our consolidated statements of cash flows. The non-GAAP financial information that we provide also may differ from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

Forward-looking statements

This news release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If the risks or uncertainties ever materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, the results of HP may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and assumptions. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including but not limited to any projections of revenue, margins, expenses, charges, earnings or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies, and objectives of management for future operations, including execution of any restructuring plans; any statements concerning the expected development, performance or market share relating to products or services; any statements of expectation or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Risks, uncertainties and assumptions include macroeconomic and geopolitical trends and events; execution and performance of contracts by suppliers, customers and partners; employee management issues; the challenge of managing asset levels, including inventory; the difficulty of aligning expense levels with revenue changes; assumptions related to pension and other post-retirement costs; expectations and assumptions relating to the execution and timing of workforce restructuring programs; and other risks that are described from time to time in HP's Securities and Exchange Commission reports, including but not limited to the risks described in HP's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Oct. 31, 2005 and other reports filed after that report. As in prior quarters, the financial information set forth in this release, including tax-related items, are estimates based on information available at this time. While HP believes these estimates to be meaningful, these amounts could differ materially from actual reported amounts in HP's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended Jan. 31, 2006. In particular, determining HP's actual tax balances and provisions as of Jan. 31, 2006 and for the fiscal quarter then ended requires extensive internal and external review of tax data (including consolidating and reviewing the tax provisions of numerous domestic and foreign entities), which is being completed in the ordinary course of preparing HP's Form 10-Q. HP assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

(a) Reflects certain fiscal 2006 organizational realignments
    retroactively to provide improved visibility and comparability.
    For each of the quarters in fiscal year 2005, the realignments
    resulted primarily in revenue and operating profit movement of $5
    million or less between ESS and SW segments within TSG. There was
    no impact to the remaining segments.

(a) Reflects certain fiscal 2006 organizational realignments
    retroactively to provide improved visibility and comparability.
    For each of the quarters in fiscal year 2005, the realignments
    resulted primarily in revenue movement of $5 million or less
    between ESS and SW segments within TSG. In addition, IPG and PSG
    revenue was impacted at the business unit level but the overall
    segment revenue remained as previously reported. There was no
    impact to the remaining segments.
