Note 1: ~~Overview and~~ Basis of Presentation

~~Overview~~Separation Transaction

On November 1, 2015, ~~(the "Distribution Date"),~~ Hewlett-Packard Company completed the separation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company ("(“Hewlett Packard ~~Enterprise"~~Enterprise”), Hewlett-Packard ~~Company's~~Company’s former enterprise technology infrastructure, software, services and financing businesses (the ~~"Separation"~~“Separation”). In connection with the Separation, Hewlett-Packard Company changed its name to HP Inc. ~~("HP").~~

~~On the Distribution Date, each of HP's stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 21, 2015 (the "Record Date"~~(“HP”) received one share of Hewlett Packard Enterprise common stock for every one share of HP common stock held as of the Record Date. Hewlett Packard Enterprise is now an independent public company trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "HPE". HP distributed a total of approximately 1.8 billion shares of Hewlett Packard Enterprise common stock to HP's stockholders. After the Separation, HP does not beneficially own any shares of Hewlett Packard Enterprise common stock.

~~In connection with the Separation, HP~~ and ~~Hewlett Packard Enterprise~~ entered into a separation and distribution agreement as well as various other agreements with Hewlett Packard Enterprise that provide a framework for the relationships between the parties, including among others a tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, a transition service agreement, a real estate matters agreement, a master commercial agreement and an information technology service agreement. For more information on the impacts of these agreements, see Note ~~5, "Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plans"~~6, “Taxes on Earnings”, Note ~~6, "Stock-Based Compensation", Note 7, "Taxes on Earnings",~~13, “Litigation and Contingencies” and Note 14, ~~"Litigation and Contingencies" and Note 15, "Guarantees,~~“Guarantees, Indemnifications and ~~Warranties"~~Warranties”.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of HP and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are prepared in conformity with United States ("(“U.S."”) generally accepted accounting principles ~~("GAAP"~~(“GAAP”). The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all normal adjustments that are necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This interim information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, ~~2015~~2016 in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December ~~16, 2015 and in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 27,~~15, 2016. The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet for October 31, ~~2015~~2016 was derived from audited financial statements.

After the Separation, HP no longer consolidates the financial results of Hewlett Packard Enterprise within its financial results of continuing operations. For all the periods prior to the Separation, the financial results of Hewlett Packard Enterprise are presented as net earnings from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings and assets and liabilities from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Fiscal 2015 information in the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements have been revised to reflect the effect of the Separation, except for balances related to stockholders' (deficit) equity. The historical statements of comprehensive income and cash flows have not been revised to reflect the effect of the Separation. For further information on discontinued operations, see Note 2, "Discontinued Operations".

Principles of Consolidation

The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts of HP and its subsidiaries and affiliates in which HP has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. ~~HP presents non-controlling interests as a separate component within Total stockholders' (deficit) equity in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.~~ All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Reclassifications

HP has made changes to the alignment of its business units in order to align its business unit financial reporting more closely with its current business structure. HP made these changes to its business unit information in prior reporting periods on an as-is basis. The reporting changes had no impact to previously reported segment net revenue, consolidated net revenue, earnings from continuing operations, net earnings or net earnings per share (“EPS”). See Note 2, “Segment Information”, for a further discussion of HP’s business unit realignments.

HP has reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current-year presentation as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” and ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in ~~HP's~~HP’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued guidance, which amends the existing accounting standards for share-based payments, including the accounting for income taxes and forfeitures, as well as the classifications on the statements of cash flows. HP early adopted the amendments in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Beginning November 1, 2016, stock-based compensation excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies are reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings as a component of the provision for taxes, whereas they previously were recognized as additional paid in capital in the stockholders’ deficit in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. HP has elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur to determine the stock-based compensation expense. Additionally, the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows now present excess tax benefits as an operating activity rather than as a financing activity, while the payment of withholding taxes on the settlement of stock-based compensation awards is presented as a financing activity rather than as an operating activity, with prior periods adjusted accordingly. The implementation of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended July 31, 2016. See Note 6, “Taxes on Earnings”, for additional impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued guidance, which amends the existing disclosures for investments measured at net asset value (“NAV”) per share (or its equivalent), as a practical expedient for fair value. This amendment removes the requirement to categorize these investments within the fair value hierarchy. The amendment also removes the requirement to make certain

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Continued)

Note 1: ~~Overview and~~ Basis of Presentation (Continued)

disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the NAV as a practical expedient. HP adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Other than the change in presentation of certain pension-related assets that use NAV as a practical expedient, which requires retrospective application, the adoption of this new guidance did not have an impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In April 2015, the FASB amended the existing accounting standards for intangible assets. The amendments provide explicit guidance to customers in determining the accounting for fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement. HP adopted the guidance prospectively in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The implementation of this guidance did not have an impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In April 2015, the FASB amended the existing accounting standards for the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by these amendments. HP adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The adoption resulted in the reclassification of unamortized debt issuance costs related to HP’s U.S. Dollar Global Notes from “Other non-current assets” to “Long-term debt” within the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets of $23 million as of October 31, 2016.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment. The updated guidance eliminates Step 2 of the impairment test, which requires entities to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, determined in Step 1. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 using a prospective approach. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP currently expects to early adopt this guidance in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017. HP expects that the implementation of this guidance will not have an effect on its Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB amended the existing accounting standards for business combinations. The amendments clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance, which addresses the presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The guidance requires entities to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. HP is required to adopt the guidance retrospectively in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued guidance, which amends the existing accounting for Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. The guidance requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. It also requires modified retrospective transition with a cumulative catch-up adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance, which amends the existing accounting standards for the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments on the statement of cash flows. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In June 2016, the ~~Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")~~FASB issued guidance, which requires credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, not based on incurred losses. Further, credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. ~~Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.~~

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance which amends the existing accounting standards for share-based payments. The amendment changes the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statements of cash flows. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on ~~its~~the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance, which amends the existing accounting standards for leases. Consistent with current guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities

for all leases with lease terms of more than twelve months. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. Earlier adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on ~~its~~the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance, which amends the existing accounting standards for the recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities. The updated guidance primarily addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The amendments should be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption, with other amendments related specifically to equity securities without readily determinable fair values applied prospectively. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on ~~its Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.~~

~~In April 2015,~~ the FASB amended the existing accounting standards for intangible assets. The amendment provides explicit guidance to customers in determining the accounting for fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement, wherein the arrangements that do not convey a software license to the customer are accounted for as service contracts. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2017; however early adoption is permitted. The amendment may be adopted either prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or retrospectively. HP is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In April 2015, the FASB amended the existing accounting standards for imputation of interest. The amendment requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this amendment. HP is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment should be applied retrospectively with the adjusted balance sheet of each individual period presented, in order to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. HP is currently evaluating the timing and the impact of this guidance on its Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In May 2014, the FASB amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The ~~amendment is~~amendments (Topic 606) are based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standard update for a one-year deferral of the effective date, with an option of applying the standard on the original effective date, which for HP is the first quarter of fiscal 2018. In accordance with this deferral, HP is required to adopt these amendments in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented (“full retrospective method”) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial ~~application.~~application (“modified retrospective method”).

HP will adopt the new revenue standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and intends to apply the modified retrospective method. HP is continuing to evaluate the impact of this guidance ~~and~~on the ~~transition alternatives on its~~ Consolidated Condensed Financial ~~Statements.~~Statements and disclosures.

Fiscal 2017 Plan

On October 10, 2016, HP’s Board of Directors approved a ~~leading global provider~~restructuring plan (the “Fiscal 2017 Plan”), which it expects will be implemented through fiscal year 2019. HP estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax charges between $350 million and $500 million relating to labor and non-labor actions. HP estimates that approximately half of ~~personal computing~~the expected cumulative pre-tax costs will relate to severance and the remaining will relate to infrastructure, non-labor actions and other ~~access devices, imaging~~charges, as described below.

~~Commercial PCs~~ are optimized for enterprise and SMB customers, with a focus on robust designs, security, serviceability, connectivity, reliability and manageability in networked environments. Additionally, HP offers a range of services and solutions to enterprise and SMB customers to help them manage the lifecycle of their PC and mobility installed base.

~~Consumer PCs~~ ~~are notebooks, desktops, and hybrids that are optimized for consumer usage, focusing on multi-media consumption, online browsing, and light productivity.~~

~~Printing~~ ~~provides consumer and commercial printer hardware, supplies, media, solutions and services,~~reflected as well as scanning devices. Printing is also focused on imaging solutions in the commercial markets. HP groups LaserJet, graphics and PageWide printers into Commercial Hardware and Inkjet printers into Consumer Hardware when describing performance in these markets. Described below are HP's global business capabilities within Printing.

~~LaserJet and Enterprise Solutions~~ delivers HP's LaserJet printers, supplies and solutions to SMBs and large enterprises. HP goes to market through its extensive channel network and directly with HP sales. Ongoing key initiatives include design and deployment of A3 products and solutions for the copier and multifunction printer market, printer security solutions, PageWide Enterprise solutions, and award-winning JetIntelligence products.

~~Inkjet and Printing Solutions~~ delivers HP's consumer, SMB, and PageWide Inkjet solutions (hardware, supplies, media, and web-connected hardware and services). Ongoing initiatives and programs such as Instant Ink and newer initiatives such as Continuous Ink Supply System provide innovative printing solutions to consumers and SMBs.

~~Graphics Solutions~~ delivers large format printers (DesignJet, Large Format Production, and Scitex Industrial), specialty printing, digital press solutions (Indigo and PageWide Presses), supplies and services to print service providers and design and rendering customers.

~~Print Solutions~~ provides end-to-end services, as well as core platforms to develop and deploy services across printing systems. HP's focus includes driving customer value through managed print services and providing support solutions for new and existing customers.

~~Corporate Investments~~ ~~include HP Labs and certain business incubation projects, among others.~~

The accounting policies used to derive segment results are substantially the same as those used by the Company in preparing the financial statements. HP derives the results of the business segments directly from its internal management reporting system. Segment net revenue includes revenues from sales to external customers and intersegment revenues that reflect transactions between the segments on an arm's-length basis. HP's consolidated net revenue is derived and reported after the elimination of intersegment revenues from such arrangements.

HP does not allocate certain operating expenses, which it manages at the corporate level, to its segments. These unallocated costs include certain corporate costs, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, amortization of intangible assets, defined benefit plan settlement credits, non-operating retirement-related credits and intersegment eliminations.

~~Segment Reporting Changes~~

Effective at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal 2016, HP implemented a reporting change to provide better transparency to its segment operating results. This reporting change resulted in the exclusion of certain market-related factors such as interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortized actuarialunrecognized gains or losses, and ~~impacts from other market-related factors related~~such gains or losses are amortized to ~~its defined benefit~~earnings in future periods. A deterioration in the funded status of a plan could result in a need for additional company contributions or an increase in net pension and post-retirement benefit costs in future periods. Actuarial gains or losses are determined at the measurement date and amortized over the remaining service life for active plans ~~from its segment operating results ("Non-operating retirement-related credits/(charges)"). This change also resulted in~~or the ~~exclusion~~life expectancy of ~~certain~~ plan curtailments, settlements and special termination benefits related to its defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans from HP's segment operating results. Segment operating results will continue to include service costs and amortization of prior service costs associated with HP's defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefitparticipants for frozen plans. The reporting change had an immaterial impact to previously reported segment net revenue and earnings from operations and had no impact on HP's previously reported consolidated net revenue, earnings from operations, net earnings or net earnings per share ("EPS").

~~Fiscal 2015 Plan~~

In connection with the Separation, on September 14, 2015, HP's Board of Directors approved a cost savings plan which includes labor and non-labor actions which will be implemented through fiscal 2016. HP estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax charges up to $300 million which relate to workforce reductions, real estate consolidation and other non-labor charges. HP expects approximately 3,000 employees will exit by the end of fiscal 2016.

During the nine months ended July 31, 2016, HP announced a voluntary phased retirement program ("PRP") for certain qualified employees. Qualified employees will retire gradually over a defined period of time and at the end of which they will receive severance and certain benefits. HP recognized charges aggregating $29 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2016 related to the PRP.

~~The following table summarizes the cost saving plan activities in the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016.~~

⁽¹⁾	~~Plan credit allocation relates to the employees of HP covered under Hewlett Packard Enterprise plans or employees of Hewlett Packard Enterprise covered under HP plans.~~

~~Employer Contributions and Funding Policy~~

~~HP's policy is to fund its pension plans so that it makes at least the minimum contribution required by local government, funding and taxing authorities.~~

During the nine months ended July 31, 2016, HP contributed $15 million to its non-U.S. pension plans, paid $24 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified plan participants, and paid $24 million to cover benefit claims under HP's post-retirement benefit plans. During the remainder of fiscal 2016, HP anticipates making additional contributions of approximately $3 million to its non-U.S. pension plans and approximately $9 million to its U.S. non-qualified plan participants and expects to pay approximately $11 million to cover benefit claims under HP's post-retirement benefit plans.

HP's pension and other post-retirement benefit costs and obligations depend on various assumptions. Differences between expected and actual returns on investments and changes in discount rates and other actuarial assumptions are reflected as unrecognized gains or losses, and such gains or losses are amortized to earnings in future periods. A deterioration in the funded status of a plan could result in a need for additional company contributions or an increase in net pension and post-retirement benefit costs in future periods. Actuarial gains or losses are determined at the measurement date and amortized over the remaining service life for active plans or the life expectancy of plan participants for frozen plans.

~~Lump Sum Program~~

During the third quarter of fiscal 2016, HP offered a program whereby certain terminated vested participants of the HP Inc. Pension Plan ("Pension Plan") could elect to take a one-time voluntary lump sum payment equal to the present value of future benefits. This program closed on July 29, 2016. Approximately 17,000 plan participants elected to receive lump sum

~~HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

~~Note 5: Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plans (Continued)~~

~~payments which they will receive from plan assets in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. Settlement expense will be recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.~~

In January 2015, HP offered certain terminated vested participants of the Pension Plan the option of receiving their pension benefit in a one-time voluntary lump sum during a specified window. As a result of the lump sum program, HP recognized a settlement credit of approximately $72 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result of the settlement, additional net periodic benefit cost of $8 million was recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2015, which offset the actuarial gain from the settlement and was recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings as Defined benefit plan settlement credits.

~~Note 6:~~ Stock-Based Compensation

~~HP's~~HP’s stock-based compensation plans permit the issuance of restricted stock awards, stock options and performance-based awards.

In connection with the Separation and in accordance with the employee matters agreement, HP has made certain adjustments to the exercise price and number of stock-based compensation awards with the intention of preserving the intrinsic value of the awards prior to the Separation. The pre-tax stock-based compensation expense due to the adjustments was $2 million and was recorded during the three months ended January 31, 2016. All outstanding restricted stock awards and stock options for employees transferred to Hewlett Packard Enterprise were cancelled (the "Cancelled Awards") in connection with the Separation.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards are non-vested stock awards that may include grants of restricted stock or restricted stock units. For the three and nine months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015,~~2016, HP granted only restricted stock units. HP uses the closing stock price on the grant date to estimate the fair value of service-based restricted stock units. HP estimates the fair value of restricted stock units subject to performance-adjusted vesting conditions using a combination of the closing stock price on the grant date and the Monte Carlo simulation model. For the three months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015,~~2016, HP did not grant any restricted stock units subject to performance-adjusted vesting conditions. The weighted-average fair value and the assumptions used to measure the fair value of restricted stock units subject to performance-adjusted vesting conditions in the Monte Carlo simulation model were as follows:

AtAs at July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, there was ~~$201~~$227 million of unrecognized pre-tax stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock awards, which HP expects to recognize over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of 1.4 years.

Stock Options

HP utilizes the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula to estimate the fair value of stock options subject to service-based vesting conditions. HP estimates the fair value of stock options subject to performance-contingent vesting conditions using a combination of athe Monte Carlo simulation model and a lattice model, as these awards contain market conditions. The weighted-average fair value and the assumptions used to measure fair value for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016 were as follows:

Note 6: Taxes on Earnings

Tax Matters Agreement and Other Income Tax Matters

In connection with the Separation, HP entered into the tax matters agreement (“TMA”) with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, effective on November 1, 2015, that governs the rights and obligations of HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise for certain pre-Separation tax liabilities. The TMA provides that HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise will share certain pre-Separation income tax liabilities. In certain jurisdictions, HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise have joint and several liability for past income tax liabilities and accordingly, HP could be legally liable under applicable tax law for such liabilities and required to make additional tax payments.

In addition, if the distribution of Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s common shares to the HP stockholders is determined to be taxable, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and HP would share the tax liability equally, unless the taxability of the distribution is the direct result of action taken by either Hewlett Packard Enterprise or HP subsequent to the distribution, in which case the party causing the distribution to be taxable would be responsible for any taxes imposed on the distribution.

Upon completion of the Separation on November 1, 2015, HP recorded income tax indemnification receivables from Hewlett Packard Enterprise for certain income tax liabilities that HP is jointly and severally liable for, but for which it is indemnified by Hewlett Packard Enterprise under the TMA. The actual amount that Hewlett Packard Enterprise may be obligated to pay HP could vary depending on the outcome of certain unresolved tax matters, which may not be resolved for several years. The net receivable as of July 31, 2017 was $1.6 billion. In connection with the TMA, Interest and other, net for the nine months ended July 31, 2017 includes income of $24 million for changes in the tax indemnifications amounts.

Provision for Taxes

HP’s effective tax rate for continuing operations was 22.5% and 22.0% for the three months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively and 23.1% and 21.7% for the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. HP’s effective tax rate generally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from HP’s operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world. HP has not provided U.S. taxes for all foreign earnings because HP plans to reinvest some of those earnings indefinitely outside the United States.

During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, HP recorded $27 million and $31 million, respectively, of net tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for income taxes for continuing operations. These amounts included a tax benefit of $14 million and $45 million related to restructuring and other charges, and a tax benefit of $15 million and $28 million related to acquisition-related charges, offset by uncertain tax position charges of $19 million and $25 million, for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017 , respectively. The three months and nine months ended July 31, 2017 included a net tax benefit of $12 million related to provision to return adjustments due to the filing of the U.S. Federal tax return. The nine months ended July 31, 2017 also included a tax charge of $26 million related to state provision to return adjustments.

During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, HP recorded discrete items resulting in net tax expense of $14 million and net tax benefit of $72 million, respectively, for continuing operations. These amounts included a tax benefit of $8 million and $46 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, respectively, related to restructuring and other charges. The nine months ended July 31, 2016 also included a tax benefit of $41 million arising from the retroactive research and development credit provided by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 signed into law in December 2015.

During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, HP recorded excess tax benefits of $2 million and $14 million, respectively, on stock options, restricted stock and performance share units, which are reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings as a component of the provision for income taxes as a result of the early adoption of ASU 2016-09 -“Improvements to Employee Share- Based Payment Accounting”. See Note 1, “Basis of Presentation”, for more details regarding the guidance.

Uncertain Tax Positions

As of July 31, 2017, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $10.9 billion, of which up to $3.9 billion would affect HP’s effective tax rate if realized. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits did not significantly change for the nine months ended July 31, 2017. HP continues to record its tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions and certain liabilities for which it has joint and several liability with Hewlett Packard Enterprise. HP recognizes interest income from favorable settlements and interest expense and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for taxes in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. As of July 31, 2017, HP had accrued $239 million for interest and penalties.

HP engages in continuous discussions and negotiations with taxing authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. HP expects to complete resolution of certain tax years with various tax authorities within the next 12 months. It is also possible that other federal, foreign and state tax issues may be concluded within the next 12 months.

HP has third-party arrangements, consisting of revolving short-term financing, which provide liquidity to certain partners in order to facilitate their working capital requirements. These financing arrangements, which in certain circumstances may contain partial recourse, result in a transfer of HP’s receivables and risk to the third party. As these transfers qualify as true sales under the applicable accounting guidance, the receivables are derecognized from the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets upon transfer, and HP receives a payment for the receivables from the third party within a mutually agreed upon time period. For arrangements involving an element of recourse, the recourse obligation is measured using market data from the similar transactions and reported as a current liability in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The recourse obligations as of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016 were not material. As of July 31, 2017 and October 31, 2016, HP had $130 millionand $149 million, respectively, outstanding from the third parties, which is reported in accounts receivable in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The costs associated with the sales of trade receivables for the three months and nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016 were not material.

Note 8: Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Fair Value Hierarchy

HP uses valuation techniques that are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are developed using market data such as publicly available information and reflect the assumptions market participants would use, while unobservable inputs are developed using the best information available about the assumptions market participants would use. Assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and market-corroborated inputs.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to observable inputs and lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

The following table presents HP’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

__________________

(1)Government debt includes instruments such as U.S. treasury notes, U.S agency securities and non-U.S. government bonds.

There were no transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended July 31, 2017.

Valuation Techniques

Cash Equivalents and Investments: HP holds time deposits, money market funds, mutual funds, other debt securities primarily consisting of corporate and government notes and bonds, and common stock and equivalents. HP values cash equivalents and equity investments using quoted market prices, alternative pricing sources, including net asset value, or models utilizing market observable inputs. The fair value of debt investments was based on quoted market prices or model-driven valuations using inputs primarily derived from or corroborated by observable market data, and, in certain instances, valuation models that utilize assumptions which cannot be corroborated with observable market data.

Derivative Instruments: From time to time, HP uses forward contracts, interest rate and total return swaps and option contracts to hedge certain foreign currency and interest rate exposures. HP uses industry standard valuation models to measure fair value. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves, HP and counterparty credit risk, foreign currency rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies and interest rates. See Note 9, “Financial Instruments” for a further discussion of HP’s use of derivative instruments.

Note 8: Fair Value (Continued)

in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as an amount equal to the debt’s carrying amount and a fair value adjustment representing changes in the fair value of the hedged debt obligations arising from movements in benchmark interest rates. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $8.1 billion as of July 31, 2017, compared to its carrying amount of $7.8 billion at that date. The fair value of HP’s short- and long-term debt was $7.1 billion as of October 31, 2016, compared to its carrying value of $6.8 billion at that date. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, short- and long-term debt would be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other Financial Instruments: For the balance of HP’s financial instruments, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable and financial liabilities included in Other accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, other financial instruments would be classified in Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Non-Marketable Equity Investments and Non-Financial Assets: HP’s non-marketable equity investments and non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are recorded at fair value in the period of acquisition and a subsequent impairment charge is recognized. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, non-marketable equity investments and non-financial assets would generally be classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

~~Note 7: Taxes on Earnings~~

~~Tax Matters Agreement and Other Income Tax Matters~~

In connection with the Separation, HP entered into the TMA with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, effective on November 1, 2015, that governs the rights and obligations of HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise for certain pre-Separation tax liabilities. The TMA provides that HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise will share certain pre-Separation income tax liabilities. In certain jurisdictions, HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise have joint and several liability for past income tax liabilities and accordingly, HP could be legally liable under applicable tax law for such liabilities and required to make additional tax payments.

In addition, if the distribution of Hewlett Packard Enterprise's common shares to the HP stockholders is determined to be taxable, Hewlett Packard Enterprise and HP would share the tax liability equally, unless the taxability of the distribution is the direct result of action taken by either Hewlett Packard Enterprise or HP subsequent to the distribution, in which case the party causing the distribution to be taxable would be responsible for any taxes imposed on the distribution.

Upon completion of the Separation on November 1, 2015, HP recorded income tax indemnification receivables from Hewlett Packard Enterprise for certain income tax liabilities that HP is jointly and severally liable for, but for which it is indemnified by Hewlett Packard Enterprise under the TMA. The actual amount that Hewlett Packard Enterprise may be obligated to pay HP could vary depending upon the outcome of certain unresolved tax matters, which may not be resolved for several years. The net receivable as of July 31, 2016 was $1.1 billion.

~~Note 7: Taxes on Earnings (Continued)~~

~~Provision for Taxes~~

HP's effective tax rate for continuing operations was 22.0% and 23.7% for the three months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and 21.7% and 22.2% for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. HP's effective tax rate generally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from HP's operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world. HP has not provided U.S. taxes for all foreign earnings because HP plans to reinvest some of those earnings indefinitely outside the U.S.

In the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, HP recorded discrete items resulting in net tax expense of $14 million and net tax benefit of $72 million, respectively, for continuing operations. These amounts included a tax benefit of $8 million and $46 million, for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, respectively, on restructuring and other charges. The nine months ended July 31, 2016 also included a tax benefit of $41 million arising from the retroactive research and development credit provided by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 signed into law in December 2015.

In the three and nine months ended July 31, 2015, HP recorded discrete items resulting in net tax expense of $28 million and $12 million, respectively. These amounts included a tax benefit of $1 million and $8 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2015, respectively, on restructuring and other charges, and tax expense of $7 million and $36 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2015, respectively, related to provision to return adjustments and other tax expense of $22 million and $12 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2015, respectively. The nine months ended July 31, 2015 also included a tax benefit of $28 million arising from the retroactive research and development credit provided by the Tax Increase Prevention Act of 2014 signed into law in December 2014.

~~Uncertain Tax Positions~~

As of July 31, 2016, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $9.6 billion, of which up to $3.4 billion would affect HP's effective tax rate if realized. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased by $385 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2016, primarily related to advanced royalty payments, the majority of which are indemnified by Hewlett Packard Enterprise. HP continues to record its tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions and certain liabilities for which it has joint and several liability with Hewlett Packard Enterprise. During the nine months ended July 31, 2016, as part of the Separation, HP distributed liabilities related solely to uncertain tax positions associated with Hewlett Packard Enterprise aggregating $732 million. HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise have contractually agreed to share the responsibility of certain tax exposures, and as such have recorded indemnification assets and liabilities pursuant to the TMA. HP recognizes interest income from favorable settlements and interest expense and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for taxes in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. As of July 31, 2016, HP had accrued $153 million for interest and penalties.

HP engages in continuous discussion and negotiation with taxing authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. HP does not expect complete resolution of any IRS audit cycle within the next 12 months. However, it is reasonably possible that certain federal, foreign and state tax issues may be concluded in the next 12 months, including issues involving transfer pricing and other matters. Accordingly, HP believes it is reasonably possible that its existing unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by an amount up to $5 million within the next 12 months.

~~Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities~~

In 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-17, "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes", which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes. This guidance requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as non-current in a classified statement of financial position. HP early adopted the FASB's new accounting guidance prospectively for the interim period beginning November 1, 2015; thus, the prior reporting period was not retrospectively adjusted.

HP periodically engages in intercompany advanced royalty payment arrangements that may result in advance payments between subsidiaries in different tax jurisdictions. When the local tax treatment of the intercompany licensing arrangements differs from U.S. GAAP treatment, deferred taxes are recognized. During the nine months ended July 31, 2016, HP executed intercompany advanced royalty payment arrangements resulting in advanced payments of $1.1 billion. During fiscal 2015, HP executed an intercompany advanced royalty payment arrangement which resulted in advanced payments of $3.8 billion, with a deferral of intercompany revenues over the term of the arrangements, which is approximately 5 years. There was no recognition of any net U.S. deferred tax assets as a result of this transaction. In these transactions, the payments were received in the U.S.

HP has third-party arrangements, consisting of revolving short-term financing, which provide liquidity to certain partners in order to facilitate their working capital requirements. These financing arrangements, which in certain circumstances may contain partial recourse, result in a transfer of HP's receivables and risk to the third party. As these transfers qualify as true sales under the applicable accounting guidance, the receivables are derecognized from the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets upon transfer, and HP receives a payment for the receivables from the third party within a mutually agreed upon time period. For arrangements involving an element of recourse, the recourse obligation is measured using market data from the similar transactions and reported as a current liability in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The recourse obligations as of July 31, 2016 and October 31, 2015 were not material. As of July 31, 2016 and October 31, 2015, HP had $114 million and $93 million, respectively, outstanding from the third parties, which is reported in Accounts receivable in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The costs associated with the sales of trade receivables for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016 and July 31, 2015 were not material.

~~There were no transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended July 31, 2016.~~

~~Valuation Techniques~~

Cash Equivalents and Investments: HP holds time deposits, money market funds, mutual funds, other debt securities primarily consisting of corporate and foreign government notes and bonds, and common stock and equivalents. HP values cash equivalents and equity investments using quoted market prices, alternative pricing sources, including net asset value, or models utilizing market observable inputs. The fair value of debt investments was based on quoted market prices or model-driven valuations using inputs primarily derived from or corroborated by observable market data, and, in certain instances, valuation models that utilize assumptions which cannot be corroborated with observable market data.

Derivative Instruments: From time to time HP uses forward contracts, interest rate and total return swaps and option contracts to hedge certain foreign currency and interest rate exposures. HP uses industry standard valuation models to measure fair value. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to present value using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves, HP and counterparty credit risk, foreign currency rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies and interest rates. See Note 10, "Financial Instruments" for a further discussion of HP's use of derivative instruments.

~~Other Fair Value Disclosures~~

Short- and Long-Term Debt: HP estimates the fair value of its debt primarily using an expected present value technique, which is based on observable market inputs using interest rates currently available to companies of similar credit standing for similar terms and remaining maturities, and considering its own credit risk. The portion of HP's debt that is hedged is reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as an amount equal to the debt's carrying amount and a fair value adjustment representing changes in the fair value of the hedged debt obligations arising from movements in benchmark interest rates. The estimated fair value of HP's short- and long-term debt was $7.1 billion as of July 31, 2016, compared to its carrying amount of

~~HP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements~~

~~(Unaudited)~~

~~Note 9: Fair Value (Continued)~~

$6.8 billion at that date. The estimated fair value of HP's short- and long-term debt approximated its carrying value of $8.9 billion as of October 31, 2015. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, short- and long-term debt would be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other Financial Instruments: For the balance of HP's financial instruments, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable and financial liabilities included in Other accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, other financial instruments would be classified in Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Non-Marketable Equity Investments and Non-Financial Assets: HP's non-marketable equity investments and non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are recorded at fair value in the period an impairment charge is recognized. If measured at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, non-marketable equity investments and non-financial assets would generally be classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments

HP uses derivatives to offset business exposure to foreign currency and interest rate risk on expected future cash flows and on certain existing assets and liabilities. As part of its risk management strategy, HP uses derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, interest rate swaps, total return swaps and, at times, option contracts to hedge certain foreign currency, interest rate and, to a lesser extent, equity exposures. HP may designate its derivative contracts as fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. ~~Additionally, for~~HP classifies cash flows from its designated derivative contracts with the activities that correspond to the underlying hedged items on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows. For derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, HP categorizes those economic hedges as other derivatives. HP recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. ~~HP classifies cash flows from its derivative programs with the activities that correspond to the underlying hedged items on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.~~

As a result of its use of derivative instruments, HP is exposed to the risk that its counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. Master netting agreements mitigate credit exposure to counterparties by permitting HP to net amounts due from HP to counterparty against amounts due to HP from the same counterparty under certain conditions. To further limit credit risk, HP has collateral security agreements that allow HP to hold collateral from, or require HP to post collateral to, counterparties when aggregate derivative fair values exceed contractually established thresholds which are generally based on the credit ratings of HP and its counterparties. If ~~HP's~~HP’s or the ~~counterparty's~~counterparty’s credit rating falls below a specified credit rating, either party has the right to request full collateralization of the ~~derivatives'~~derivatives’ net liability position. The fair value of derivatives with credit contingent features in a net liability position was $7$583 million and ~~$138~~$2 million as of July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and October 31, ~~2015,~~2016, respectively, all of which were fully collateralized within two business days of the related request.

Under ~~HP's~~HP’s derivative contracts, the counterparty can terminate all outstanding trades following a covered change of control event affecting HP that results in the surviving entity being rated below a specified credit rating. This credit contingent provision did not affect ~~HP's~~HP’s financial position or cash flows as of July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and October 31, ~~2015.~~2016.

Fair Value Hedges

HP enters into fair value hedges, such as interest rate swaps, to reduce the exposure of its debt portfolio to changes in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates by achieving a primarily U.S. dollar London Interbank Offered Rate ~~("LIBOR"~~(“LIBOR”)-based floating interest expense.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, HP recognizes the change in fair value of the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item, in Interest and other, net on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings in the period of change.

Cash Flow Hedges

HP uses forward contracts and at times, option contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in its forecasted net revenue and, to a lesser extent, cost of revenue, operating expenses, and intercompany loans denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. ~~HP's~~HP’s foreign currency cash flow hedges mature generally within twelve ~~months; however,~~months. However, hedges related to longer term procurement arrangements extend several years and forward contracts associated with intercompany loans extend for the duration of the loan term, which typically range from two to five years.

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Continued)

(Unaudited)

Note ~~10:~~9: Financial Instruments (Continued)

~~forward contracts associated with intercompany loans extend for the duration of the lease or loan term, which typically range from two to five years.~~

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, HP initially records changes in fair value for the effective portion of the derivative instrument in ~~Accumulated~~accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of ~~stockholders' (deficit) equity~~stockholders’ deficit on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets and subsequently reclassifies these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. HP reports the effective portion of its cash flow hedges in the same financial statement line item as changes in the fair value of the hedged item.

~~Net Investment Hedges~~

HP used forward contracts designated as net investment hedges to hedge net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency was the local currency. As part of the Separation, HP disposed of all these foreign subsidiaries and no longer utilizes net investment hedges. HP recorded the effective portion of such derivative instruments together with changes in the fair value of the hedged items in Cumulative translation adjustment as a separate component of stockholders' (deficit) equity in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Other Derivatives

Other derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consist primarily of forward contracts used to hedge foreign currency-denominated balance sheet exposures. HP uses total return swaps to hedge its executive deferred compensation plan liability. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, HP recognizes changes in fair value of the derivative instrument, as well as the offsetting change in the fair value of the hedged item, in Interest and other, net in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings in the period of change.

Hedge Effectiveness

For interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges, HP measures hedge effectiveness by offsetting the change in fair value of the hedged item with the change in fair value of the derivative. For foreign currency options and forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges, HP measures hedge effectiveness by comparing the cumulative change in fair value of the hedge contract with the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item, both of which are based on forward rates. HP recognizes any ineffective portion of the hedge in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings in the same period in which ineffectiveness occurs. Amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings in the period they arise.

As of July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, HP expects to reclassify an estimated accumulated other comprehensive ~~income ("AOCI"~~loss (“AOCI”) of ~~$49~~$442 million, net of taxes, to earnings within the next twelve months associated with cash flow hedges along with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions. The amounts ultimately reclassified into earnings could be different from the amounts previously included in AOCI based on the change of market rate, and therefore could have a different impact on earnings.

In December 2016, HP filed a shelf registration statement (the “2016 Shelf Registration Statement”) with the SEC to enable the company to offer for sale, from time to time, in one or more offerings, an unspecified amount of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares and warrants.

As disclosed in Note ~~10, "Financial Instruments"~~9, “Financial Instruments”, HP uses interest rate swaps to mitigate some of the exposure of its debt portfolio to changes in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates by achieving a primarily U.S. dollar LIBOR-based floating interest expense. Interest rates shown in the table of long-term debt have not been adjusted to reflect the impact of any interest rate swaps.

Interest expense on borrowings recognized as ~~"Interest~~“Interest and other, ~~net"~~net” in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings during the three months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016 ~~and 2015~~ was ~~$71~~$79 million and ~~$53~~$71 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016 was $225 million and ~~2015 was~~ $203 million, ~~and $109 million,~~ respectively.

Note 12: Net Earnings Per Share

HP calculates basic net EPS using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net EPS includes any dilutive effect of restricted stock awards, stock options, performance-based awards and shares purchased under the employee stock purchase plan.

A reconciliation of the number of shares used for basic and diluted net EPS calculations was as follows:

Litigation, Proceedings and Investigations

Copyright Levies. Proceedings are ongoing or have been concluded involving HP in certain European countries, including litigation in Belgium and other countries, seeking to impose or modify levies upon equipment (such as multifunction devices ~~("MFDs"~~(“MFDs”) and PCs), alleging that these devices enable the production of private copies of copyrighted materials. The levies are generally based upon the number of products sold and the per-product amounts of the levies, which vary. Some European countries that do not yet have levies on digital devices are expected to implement similar legislation to enable them to extend existing levy schemes, while other European countries have phased out levies or are expected to limit the scope of levy schemes and applicability in the digital hardware environment, particularly with respect to sales to business users. HP, other companies and various industry associations have opposed the extension of levies to the digital environment and have advocated alternative models of compensation to rights holders.

Reprobel, a cooperative society with the authority to collect and distribute the remuneration for reprography to Belgian copyright holders, requested by extrajudicial means that HP amend certain copyright levy declarations submitted for inkjet MFDs sold in Belgium from January 2005 to December 2009 to enable it to collect copyright levies calculated based on the generally higher copying speed when the MFDs are operated in draft print mode rather than when operated in normal print mode. In March 2010, HP filed a lawsuit against Reprobel in the French-speaking chambers of the Court of First Instance of Brussels seeking a declaratory judgment that no copyright levies are payable on sales of MFDs in Belgium or, alternatively, that copyright levies payable on such MFDs must be assessed based on the copying speed when operated in the normal print mode set by default in the device. On November 16, 2012, the court issued a decision holding that Belgium law is not in conformity with EUEuropean Union (“EU”) law in a number of respects and ordered that, by November 2013, Reprobel substantiate that the amounts claimed by Reprobel are commensurate with the harm resulting from legitimate copying under the reprographic exception. HP subsequently appealed that court decision to the Courts of Appeal in Brussels seeking to confirm that the Belgian law is not in conformity with EU law and that, if Belgian law is interpreted in a manner consistent with EU law, no payments by HP are required or, alternatively, the payments already made by HP are sufficient to comply with its obligations under Belgian law. On October 23, 2013, the Court of Appeal in Brussels stayed the proceedings and referred several questions to the ~~CJEU~~Court of Justice of the European Union (the “CJEU”) relating to whether the Belgian reprographic copyright levies system is in conformity with EU law. The case was heard by the CJEU on January 29, 2015 and on November 12, 2015, the CJEU published its judgment providing that a national legislation such as the Belgian one at issue in the main proceedings is incompatible with EU law on multiple legal points, as argued by HP. The Court of Appeal issued an appealable decision on May 12, 2017 providing that Belgian reprographic copyright levies are due notwithstanding the lack of conformity of the system with EU law in ~~Brussels now has~~certain aspects. Applicable levies are to ~~rule~~be calculated based on the ~~litigation between HP and Reprobel following the answers provided~~objective speed of each MFD as established by an expert appointed by the ~~CJEU.~~Court of Appeal.

Based on industry opposition to the extension of levies to digital products, ~~HP's~~HP’s assessments of the merits of various proceedings and ~~HP's~~HP’s estimates of the number of units impacted and the amounts of the levies, HP has accrued amounts that it believes are adequate to address the ongoing disputes.

Hewlett-Packard Company v. Oracle Corporation. On June 15, 2011, HP filed suit against Oracle Corporation (“Oracle”) in ~~Santa Clara~~California Superior Court in Santa Clara ~~California~~County in connection with Oracle’s March 2011 announcement that it was discontinuing software support for HP’s Itanium-based line of mission critical servers. HP asserted, among other things, that Oracle’s actions breached the contract that was signed by the parties as part of the settlement of the litigation relating to Oracle’s hiring of Mark Hurd. The matter eventually progressed to trial, which was bifurcated into two phases. HP prevailed in the first phase of the trial, in which the court ruled that the contract at issue required Oracle to continue to offer its software products on HP’s Itanium-based servers for as long as HP decided to sell such servers. The second phase of the trial was then postponed by Oracle’s appeal of the trial court’s denial of Oracle’s “anti-SLAPP” motion, in which Oracle argued that HP’s damages claim infringed on Oracle’s First Amendment rights. On August 27, 2015, the California Court of Appeals rejected Oracle’s appeal. The matter was remanded to the trial court for the second phase of the trial, which began on May 23, 2016 and was submitted to the jury on June 29, 2016. On June 30, 2016, the jury returned a verdict in favor of HP, awarding HP approximately $3.0 billion in damages, which included approximately $1.7 billion for past lost profits and $1.3 billion for future lost profits. On October 20, 2016, the court entered judgment for HP for this amount with interest accruing until the judgment is paid. Oracle’s motion for a new trial was denied on December 19, 2016, and Oracle filed its notice of appeal from the trial court’s judgment on January 17, 2017. On February 2, 2017, HP filed a notice of cross-appeal challenging the trial court’s denial of prejudgment interest. The schedule for appellate briefing and argument has not yet been established. HP expects that the appeals process could take several years to complete. Litigation is unpredictable, and there can be no assurance that HP will recover damages, or that any award of damages will be for the amount awarded by the jury’s verdict. The amount ultimately awarded, if any, would be recorded in the period received. No adjustment has been recorded in the financial statements in relation to this potential award. Pursuant to the terms of the separation and distribution agreement, HP and

future lost profits. The court has not yet entered a judgment. Oracle has publicly stated that it will appeal the jury's verdict once a final judgment is entered. Pursuant to the terms of separation and distribution agreement, HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise will share equally in any recovery from Oracle once Hewlett Packard Enterprise has been reimbursed for all costs incurred in the prosecution of the action prior to the Separation.

Forsyth, et al. vs. HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. This is a purported class and collective action filed on August 18, 2016 in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, against HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise alleging the defendants violated the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act ~~("ADEA"~~(“ADEA”), the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California public policy and the California Business and Professions Code by terminating older workers and replacing them with younger workers. Plaintiffs seek to certify a nationwide collective class action under the ADEA comprised of all U.S. residents employed by defendants who had their employment terminated pursuant to a workforce reduction ~~("WFR"~~(“WFR”) plan on or after May 23, 2012 and who were 40 years of age or older. Plaintiffs also seek to represent a Rule 23 class under California law comprised of all persons 40 years or older employed by defendants in the state of California and terminated pursuant to a WFR plan on or after May 23, 2012.

~~Memjet Technology Ltd. v. HP~~. Following a partial motion to dismiss, a motion to strike and a motion to compel arbitration that the defendants filed in November 2016, the plaintiffs amended their complaint. New plaintiffs were added, but the plaintiffs agreed that the class period for the nationwide collective action should be shortened and now starts on December 9, 2014. On ~~August 11, 2015, Memjet Technology Ltd. ("Memjet")~~January 30, 2017, the defendants filed ~~a lawsuit against HP in U.S. District Court in~~another partial motion to dismiss and motions to compel arbitration as to several of the ~~Southern District of California. The complaint alleged that HP infringed eight Memjet patents. The products accused of infringement were those that use~~plaintiffs. On March 20, 2017, the ~~HP PageWide Technology, including the OfficeJet Pro X series, OfficeJet Enterprise X series, HP PageWide XL, wide scan printers, and printers using 4.25-inch thermal inkjet printheads, such~~defendants filed additional motions to compel arbitration as HP Web Presses and Photo Kiosks. HP answered Memjet's complaint and asserted counter-claims against Memjet for infringement of seven HP patents. The products accused of infringement included various Memjet OEM printers that incorporate Memjet's printheads and print engines. The patents asserted by both parties generally relate to inkjet printhead and print system technology. Both Memjet's and HP's respective complaints sought injunctive relief and monetary damages from the other party for alleged patent infringement. HP also filed a number of ~~petitions at~~ the ~~U.S. Patent and Trademark Office seeking review of the validity of Memjet's asserted patents. On November 16, 2015, Memjet was granted an~~ ~~ex parte~~ preliminary injunction in Germany (Regional Court Munich), against HP Deutschland GmbH's sale and offers for sale of HP PageWide XL printers and printheads. Memjet's injunction request alleged that HP infringed one European patent. On January 29, 2016, the Regional Court Munich lifted the preliminary injunction. In its written judgment dated February 2, 2016, the court ruled that Memjet had not satisfied the requirements for an injunction, as the HP PageWide XL printers do not appear to infringe the Memjet patent at issue and there was a lack of urgency for a preliminary injunction. Memjet appealed to the Appeal Court Munich. On January 28, 2016, HP filed a claim in Ireland for declaratory relief that HP does not infringe the Irish, German and French counterparts of the same patent and for revocation of the patent's Irish counterpart, and HP also filed a claim in the UK for declaratory relief and revocation of the patent's UK counterpart. On February 5, 2016, Memjet filed main proceedings in Düsseldorf, Germany and in Mannheim, Germany claiming infringement of the same European patent. On May 27, 2016, HP filed a complaint at the International Trade Commission ("ITC"), which instituted an investigation on June 28, 2016 for infringement of six HP patents by Memjet and certain of its OEMs and distributors. The complaint seeks a general exclusion order banning certain Memjet ink supplies and printers that use Memjet print engines from importation into the United States. HP also filed a parallel complaint in federal district court in Oregon that sought damages and other relief. The parties have since resolved their disputes by agreement. All proceedings have been dismissed or terminated. opt-in plaintiffs.

India Directorate of Revenue Intelligence Proceedings. On April 30 and May 10, 2010, the India Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (the ~~"DRI"~~“DRI”) issued show cause notices to Hewlett-Packard India Sales Private Limited ("(“HP ~~India"~~India”), a subsidiary of HP, seven HP India employees and one former HP India employee alleging that HP India underpaid customs duties while importing products and spare parts into India and seeking to recover an aggregate of approximately $370 million, plus penalties. Prior to the issuance of the show cause notices, HP India deposited approximately $16 million with the DRI and agreed to post a provisional bond in exchange for the ~~DRI's~~DRI’s agreement to not seize HP India products and spare parts and to not interrupt the transaction of business by HP India.

On April 11, 2012, the Bangalore Commissioner of Customs issued an order on the products-related show cause notice affirming certain duties and penalties against HP India and the named individuals of approximately $386 million, of which HP India had already deposited $9 million. On December 11, 2012, HP India voluntarily deposited an additional $10 million in connection with the products-related show cause notice. The differential duty demand is subject to interest. On April 20, 2012, the Commissioner issued an order on the parts-related show cause notice affirming certain duties and penalties against HP India and certain of the named individuals of approximately $17 million, of which HP India had already deposited $7 million. After

the order, HP India deposited an additional $3 million in connection with the parts-related show cause notice so as to avoid certain penalties.

HP India filed appeals of the ~~Commissioner's~~Commissioner’s orders before the Customs Tribunal along with applications for waiver of the pre-deposit of remaining demand amounts as a condition for hearing the appeals. The Customs Department has also filed cross-appeals before the Customs Tribunal. On January 24, 2013, the Customs Tribunal ordered HP India to deposit an additional $24 million against the products order, which HP India deposited in March 2013. The Customs Tribunal did not order any additional deposit to be made under the parts order. In December 2013, HP India filed applications before the Customs Tribunal seeking early hearing of the appeals as well as an extension of the stay of deposit as to HP India and the individuals already granted until final disposition of the appeals. On February 7, 2014, the application for extension of the stay of deposit was granted by the Customs Tribunal until disposal of the appeals. On October 27, 2014, the Customs Tribunal commenced hearings on the cross-appeals of the ~~Commissioner's~~Commissioner’s orders. The Customs Tribunal rejected HP ~~India's~~India’s request to remand the matter to the Commissioner on procedural grounds. The hearings scheduled to reconvene on April 6, 2015 and again on November 3, 2015 and April 11, 2016 were ~~cancelled~~canceled at the request of the Customs Tribunal. Pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement, Hewlett Packard Enterprise has agreed to indemnify HP in part, based on the extent to which any liability arises from the products and spare parts of Hewlett Packard ~~Enterprise's~~Enterprise’s businesses.

Russia GPO ~~and Other~~ Anti-Corruption ~~Investigations~~Investigation. The German Public ~~Prosecutor's~~Prosecutor’s Office ("(“German ~~PPO"~~PPO”) has been conducting an investigation into allegations that current and former employees of HP engaged in bribery, embezzlement and tax evasion relating to a transaction between Hewlett-Packard ISE GmbH in Germany, a former subsidiary of HP, and the General ~~Prosecutor's~~Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation. The approximately $35 million transaction, which was referred to as the Russia GPO deal, spanned the years 2001 to 2006 and was for the delivery and installation of an IT network. The German PPO issued an indictment of four individuals, including one current and two former HP employees, on charges including bribery, breach of trust and tax evasion. The German PPO also requested that HP be made an associated party to the case, and, if that request is granted, HP would participate in any portion of the court proceedings that could ultimately bear on the question of

Autonomy-Related Legal Matters

Investigations. As a result of the findings of an ongoing investigation, HP has provided information to the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) Serious Fraud Office, the U.S. Department of Justice ~~("DOJ"~~(“DOJ”) and the SEC related to the accounting improprieties, disclosure failures and misrepresentations at Autonomy that occurred prior to and in connection with ~~HP's~~HP’s acquisition of Autonomy. On November 21, 2012, DOJ representatives advised HP that they had opened an investigation relating to Autonomy. On February 6, 2013, representatives of the U.K. Serious Fraud Office advised HP that they had also opened an investigation relating to Autonomy. On January 19, 2015, the U.K. Serious Fraud Office notified HP that it

was closing its investigation and had decided to cede jurisdiction of the investigation to the U.S. authorities. On November 14, 2016, the DOJ announced that a federal grand jury indicted Sushovan Hussain, the former CFO of Autonomy, on charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and multiple counts of wire fraud. The indictment alleges that Hussain engaged in a scheme to defraud purchasers and sellers of securities of Autonomy and HP about the true performance of Autonomy’s business, its financial condition, and its prospects for growth. Trial in this matter is scheduled to begin on February 26, 2018. On November 15, 2016, the SEC announced that Stouffer Egan, the former CEO of Autonomy’s U.S.-based operations, settled charges relating to his participation in an accounting scheme to meet internal sales targets and analyst revenue expectations. HP is ~~cooperating~~continuing to cooperate with the ~~DOJ and the SEC, whose investigations are ongoing.~~ongoing enforcement actions.

In re Hewlett-Packard Shareholder Derivative Litigation (the ~~"Federal~~“Federal Court Derivative ~~Action"~~Action”) consists of seven consolidated lawsuits filed beginning on November 26, 2012 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleging, among other things, that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act by concealing material information and making false statements related to ~~HP's~~HP’s acquisition of Autonomy and the financial performance of ~~HP's~~HP’s enterprise services business. The lawsuits also allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties, wasted corporate assets and were unjustly enriched in connection with ~~HP's~~HP’s acquisition of Autonomy and by causing HP to repurchase its own stock at allegedly inflated prices between August 2011 and October 2012. One lawsuit further alleges that certain individual defendants engaged in or assisted insider trading and thereby breached their fiduciary duties, were unjustly enriched and violated Sections 25402 and 25403 of the California Corporations Code. On May 3, 2013, the lead plaintiff filed a consolidated complaint alleging, among other things, that the defendants concealed material information and made false statements related to ~~HP's~~HP’s acquisition of Autonomy and ~~Autonomy's~~Autonomy’s Intelligent Data Operating Layer technology and thereby violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breached their fiduciary duties, engaged in ~~"abuse~~“abuse of ~~control"~~control” over HP, corporate waste and were unjustly enriched. The litigation was stayed until June 2014. The lead plaintiff filed a stipulation of proposed settlement on June 30, 2014. The court declined to grant preliminary approval to this settlement, and, on December 19, 2014, also declined to grant preliminary approval to a revised version of the settlement. On January 22, 2015, the lead plaintiff moved for preliminary approval of a further revised version of the settlement. On March 13, 2015, the court issued an order granting preliminary approval to the settlement. On July 24, 2015, the court held a hearing to entertain any remaining objections to the settlement and decide whether to grant final approval of the settlement. On July 30, 2015, the court granted final approval to the settlement and denied all remaining objections to the settlement. Three objectors to the settlement appealed the ~~court's~~court’s final approval order to United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

1974, as amended, by concealing negative information regarding the financial performance of Autonomy and ~~HP's~~HP’s enterprise services business and by failing to restrict participants from investing in HP stock. On August 16, 2013, HP filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. On March 31, 2014, the court granted ~~HP's~~HP’s motion to dismiss this action with leave to amend. On July 16, 2014, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint containing substantially similar allegations and seeking substantially similar relief as the first amended complaint. On June 15, 2015, the court granted ~~HP's~~HP’s motion to dismiss the second amended complaint in its entirety and denied plaintiffs leave to file another amended complaint. On July 2, 2015, plaintiffs appealed the ~~court's~~court’s order to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Oral argument occurred on May 15, 2017.

Environmental

~~HP's~~HP’s operations and products are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations concerning environmental protection, including laws addressing the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes, the cleanup of contaminated sites, the content of ~~HP's~~HP’s products and the recycling, treatment and disposal of those products. In particular, HP faces increasing complexity in its product design and procurement operations as it adjusts to new and future requirements relating to the chemical and materials composition of its products, their safe use, and the energy consumption associated with those products, including requirements relating to climate change. HP is also subject to legislation in an increasing number of jurisdictions that makes producers of electrical goods, including

computers and printers, financially responsible for specified collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of past and future covered products (sometimes referred to as ~~"product~~“product take-back ~~legislation"~~legislation”). HP could incur substantial costs, its products could be restricted from entering certain jurisdictions, and it could face other sanctions, if it were to violate or become liable under environmental laws or if its products become noncompliant with environmental laws. ~~HP's~~HP’s potential exposure includes fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third-party property damage or personal injury claims and clean-up costs. The amount and timing of costs to comply with environmental laws are difficult to predict.

HP is party to, or otherwise involved in, proceedings brought by U.S. or state environmental agencies under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ~~("CERCLA"~~(“CERCLA”), known as ~~"Superfund,"~~“Superfund,” or state laws similar to CERCLA, and may become a party to, or otherwise involved in, proceedings brought by private parties for contribution towards clean-up costs. HP is also conducting environmental investigations or remediations at several current or former operating sites pursuant to administrative orders or consent agreements with state environmental agencies.

The separation and distribution agreement includes provisions that provide for the allocation of environmental liabilities between HP and Hewlett Packard Enterprise including certain remediation obligations; responsibilities arising from the chemical and materials composition of their respective products, their safe use and their energy consumption; obligations under product take back legislation that addresses the collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of products; and other environmental matters. HP will generally be responsible for environmental liabilities related to the properties and other assets, including products, allocated to HP under the separation and distribution agreement and other ancillary agreements. Under these agreements, HP will indemnify Hewlett Packard Enterprise for liabilities for specified ongoing remediation projects, subject to certain limitations, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise has a payment obligation for a specified portion of the cost of those remediation projects. In addition, HP will share with Hewlett Packard Enterprise other environmental liabilities as set forth in the separation and distribution agreement. HP is indemnified in whole or in part by Hewlett Packard Enterprise for liabilities arising from the assets assigned to Hewlett Packard Enterprise and for certain environmental matters as detailed in the separation and distribution agreement.

Note 14: Guarantees, Indemnifications and Warranties

Guarantees

In the ordinary course of business, HP may issue performance guarantees to certain of its clients, customers and other parties pursuant to which HP has guaranteed the performance obligations of third parties. Some of those guarantees may be backed by standby letters of credit or surety bonds. In general, HP would be obligated to perform over the term of the guarantee in the event a specified triggering event occurs as defined by the guarantee. HP believes the likelihood of having to perform under a material guarantee is remote.

Indemnifications

In the ordinary course of business, HP enters into contractual arrangements under which HP may agree to indemnify a third party to such arrangement from any losses incurred relating to the services they perform on behalf of HP or for losses arising from certain events as defined within the particular contract, which may include, for example, litigation or claims relating to past performance. HP also provides indemnifications to certain vendors and customers against claims of IP infringement made by third parties arising from the vendors’ and customers’ use of HP’s software products and services and certain other matters. Some indemnifications may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, payments made related to these indemnifications have been immaterial.

Cross-Indemnifications with Hewlett Packard Enterprise

Under the separation and distribution agreement, HP agreed to indemnify Hewlett Packard Enterprise, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from, among other matters, the liabilities allocated to HP as part of the Separation. Hewlett Packard Enterprise similarly agreed to indemnify HP, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective directors, officers and employees from and against all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from, among other matters, the liabilities allocated to Hewlett Packard Enterprise as part of the Separation. HP expects Hewlett Packard Enterprise to fully perform under the terms of the separation and distribution agreement.

HP ~~Inc. Separation Transaction~~INC. SEPARATION TRANSACTION

On November 1, 2015, ~~(the "Distribution Date"),~~ we completed the separation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company ("(“Hewlett Packard ~~Enterprise"~~Enterprise”), HP Inc.'s’s former enterprise technology infrastructure, software, services and financing businesses (the ~~"Separation"~~“Separation”). In connection with the Separation, Hewlett-Packard Company changed its name to HP Inc. ~~("HP"~~(“HP”).

On the Distribution Date, each of our stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 21, 2015 (the "Record Date") received one share of Hewlett Packard Enterprise common stock for every one share of our common stock held as of the Record Date. We distributed a total of approximately 1.8 billion shares of Hewlett Packard Enterprise common stock to our stockholders. Hewlett Packard Enterprise is now an independent public company, trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "HPE". After the Separation, we do not beneficially own any shares of Hewlett Packard Enterprise common stock.

The historical results of operations and financial positions of Hewlett Packard Enterprise are reported as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. For further information on discontinued operations, see Note ~~2, "Discontinued Operations"~~15, “Discontinued Operations”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The shift to contractual solutions includes an increased focus on Managed Print Services and Instant Ink, which presents strong ~~aftermarket~~after-market supplies opportunities. In the graphics space, we are focused on innovations such as our Indigo and Latex product offerings.

We continue to experience challenges that are representative of trends and uncertainties that may affect our business and results of operations. One set of challenges relates to dynamic ~~and accelerating~~ market trends, such as ~~the decline~~from flat to slight declines in the PC device ~~market~~ and ~~Home printing.~~home printing markets. A second set of challenges relates to changes in the competitive landscape. Our primary competitors are exerting ~~increased~~ competitive pressure in targeted areas and are entering new markets, our emerging competitors are introducing new technologies and business models, and our alliance partners in some businesses are increasingly becoming our competitors in others. A third set of challenges relates to business model changes and our go-to-market execution.

In Personal Systems, ~~we are witnessing soft~~ demand ~~in the PC market as customers hold onto their PCs longer, thereby extending PC refresh cycles. Demand~~ for PCs is being impacted by ~~weaker macroeconomic conditions and~~ currency depreciation in Latin America ~~Canada~~ and certain ~~Asian~~European and ~~European~~Asian markets. As such, we anticipate continued market headwinds.

In addition, we face challenges with increasing commodity costs, especially in memory, and the uncertainty of the PC market’s ability to absorb price increases driven by higher commodity costs.

agreement could adversely affect our net revenue from LaserJet products; however, we have a long-standing business relationship with Canon and anticipate renewal of this agreement.

We ~~may~~are also ~~face~~facing challenges as a result of the June 23, 2016 referendum by British voters to exit the European Union (commonly known as ~~"Brexit"~~“Brexit”). The outcome of Brexit and its impact on our business cannot be known until the terms and timing of the United Kingdom’s exit are clearer. Until that time, ~~we may face various~~the Brexit-related challenges that we may face include uncertainty in the markets, volatility in exchange rates and weaker macroeconomic conditions.

To address these challenges, we continue to pursue innovation with a view towards developing new products and services aligned with generating market demand and meeting the needs of our customers and partners. In addition, we need to continue to improve our operations, with a particular focus on enhancing our end-to-end processes and efficiencies. We also need to continue to optimize our sales coverage models, align our sales incentives with our strategic goals, improve channel execution, strengthen our capabilities in our areas of strategic focus, and develop and capitalize on market opportunities.

We typically experience higher net revenues in our first and fourth quarters compared to other quarters in our fiscal year due in part to seasonal holiday demand. Historical seasonal patterns should not be considered reliable indicators of our future net revenues or financial performance.

For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our continuing operating results, see the section entitled ~~"Risk Factors"~~“Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, ~~2015.~~2016.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

~~Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations~~MD&A is based on our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States ("(“U.S."”) generally accepted accounting principles ~~("GAAP"~~(“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent liabilities. Our management believes that there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in ~~Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations~~MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, ~~2015 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 16, 2015 and in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 27,~~ 2016.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue from our international operations has historically represented, and we expect will continue to represent, a majority of our overall net revenue. As a result, our net revenue growth has been impacted, and we expect will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In order to provide a framework for assessing performance excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, we present the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a constant currency basis, which assumes no change in foreign currency exchange rates from the prior-year period and does not adjust for any repricing or demand impacts from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This information is provided so that net revenue can be viewed with and without the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which is consistent with how management evaluates our net revenue results and trends. This constant currency disclosure is provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a GAAP basis. Other companies may calculate and define similarly labeled items differently, which may limit the usefulness of this measure for comparative purposes.

A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment gross margins is included under ~~"Segment Information"~~“Segment Information” below.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development (“R&D”) expense decreased 3.0% for the three months ended July 31, 2017, as compared to the prior-year periods, primarily due to expense management and savings from the divestiture of marketing optimization assets, partially offset by continuing investment in Printing. R&D expense ~~decreased 0.7%~~increased 0.9% for the nine months ended July 31, 2017, as compared to the prior-year periods, primarily due to continuing investment in Printing.

Selling, General and ~~2.0%~~Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 52.4% and 16.0% for the three and nine months ended July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, respectively, as compared to the prior-year periods, primarily due to ~~favorable currency impacts.~~

~~Selling, General and Administrative~~

SG&A expense decreased 32.0% and 21.4% for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to the prior-year periods, primarily due to the gains from the divestiture of certain software assets to Open Text Corporation, lower corporate governance and other overhead costs related to the pre-Separation combined entity, our cost saving initiatives and favorable currency impacts. These effects were partially offset by thea gain from the divestiture of ~~Snapfish~~marketing optimization assets in the prior-year ~~period.~~period and an increase in field selling costs.

Restructuring and Other Charges

Restructuring and other charges for the three and nine months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 relate primarily to the restructuring plan announced in ~~September 2015~~October 2016 (the ~~"Fiscal 2015 Plan"~~“Fiscal 2017 Plan”) ~~in connection with~~and certain non-recurring costs, including those as a result of the Separation.

Interest and Other, Net

Interest and other, net expense ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$54~~$20 million for the three months ended July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, as compared to the prior-year period, partially due to lower tax indemnification amounts. For the nine months ended July 31, 2017, Interest and other, net expense increased by $66 million, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to lower foreign currency forward points incurred and tax indemnification credits. For the nine months ended July 31, 2016, Interest and other, net expense decreased by $154 million, as compared to the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower foreign currency losses and lower net interest expense primarily driven by the reversal of interest previously accrued for a legal contingency ~~partially offset by tax indemnification credits.~~in the prior-year period.

Provision for Taxes

Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was ~~22.0%~~22.5% and ~~23.7%~~22.0% for the three months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015,~~2016, respectively, and ~~21.7%~~23.1% and ~~22.2%~~21.7% for the nine months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015,~~2016, respectively. Our effective tax rate generally differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from our operations in ~~lower tax~~lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world. We have not provided U.S. taxes for all foreign earnings because we plan to reinvest some of those earnings indefinitely outside the ~~U.S.~~United States.

InDuring the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, we recorded $27 million and $31 million, respectively, of net tax benefits related to discrete items in the provision for taxes for continuing operations. These amounts included a tax benefit of $14 million and $45 million related to restructuring and other charges, and a tax benefit of $15 million and $28 million related to acquisition-related charges, offset by uncertain tax position charges of $19 million and $25 million, for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, respectively. The three and nine months ended July 31, 2017 also included a tax benefit of $12 million related to provision to return adjustments due to filing of the U.S. Federal tax return. The nine months ended July 31, 2017 also included a tax charge of $26 million related to state provision to return adjustments.

During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, we recorded discrete items resulting in net tax expense of $14 million and net tax benefit of $72 million, respectively, for continuing operations. These amounts included a tax benefit of $8 million and $46 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, respectively, onrelated to restructuring and other charges. The nine months ended July 31, 2016 also included a tax benefit of $41 million arising from the retroactive research and development credit provided by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 signed into law in December 2015.

~~Segment Reporting Changes~~Business Unit Realignment

Effective at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal ~~2016,~~year 2017, HP implemented ~~a reporting~~an organizational change to ~~provide better transparency to~~align its ~~segment operating results. This~~business unit financial reporting more closely with its current business structure. The organizational change resulted in the ~~exclusion~~transfer of ~~certain market-related factors such as interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortized actuarial gains or losses, and impacts~~a portion of LaserJet printers from ~~other market-related factors related~~Commercial to Consumer within the Printing segment. HP reflected this change to its ~~defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans from its segment operating results ("Non-operating retirement-related credits/(charges)"). This change also~~business unit information in prior reporting periods on an as-is basis which resulted in the ~~exclusion~~reclassification of ~~certain plan curtailments, settlements~~revenues between the Commercial and special termination benefits related to its defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans from HP's segment operating results. Segment operating results will continue to include service costs and amortizationConsumer business units of ~~prior service costs associated with HP's defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans.~~Printing. The reporting change had ~~an immaterial~~no impact to previously reported segment net revenue, ~~and earnings from operations and had no impact on HP's previously reported~~ consolidated net revenue, earnings from continuing operations, net earnings or net earnings per share.

Net revenue for Consumer Hardware increased 2.8% as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to a 1.4% increase in printer unit volume and a 1.8% increase in ASPs. The unit volume increase was driven by Home business. The increase in ASPs was primarily driven by better discount management.

Printing earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 3.1 percentage points for the three months ended July 31, 2017 as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by improved gross margin. The gross margin increase was driven by productivity improvements and higher Supplies mix. Operating expenses increased primarily due to a gain from the divestiture of marketing optimization assets in the prior-year period and an increase in marketing spend and investments in key growth initiatives.

Nine months ended July 31, 2017 compared with nine months ended July 31, 2016

Printing net revenue increased 1.6% (increased 2.3% on a constant currency basis) for the nine months ended July 31, 2017 as compared to the prior-year period. The increase in net revenue was primarily driven by the increase in Supplies revenue. Net revenue for Supplies increased 2.7% as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to the change in the Supplies sales model in the prior-year period, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency impacts. Printer unit volume increased 3.6% while ASPs decreased 0.7% as compared to the prior-year period. The increase in Printer unit volume was primarily driven by unit increases in Consumer Hardware and larger opportunity to place incremental units with positive net present value. Printer ASPs decreased primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency impacts, partially offset by a mix shift to higher-end printers.

Printing net revenue decreased 15.8% (decreased 10.5% on a constant currency basis) for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 as compared to the prior-year period. The decline in net revenue was primarily driven by unfavorable currency impacts, weakness in demand, competitive pricing pressures and impact from the change in the Supplies sales model. These factors resulted in a net revenue decline across Supplies and Consumer and Commercial printers. Net revenue for Supplies decreased 16% as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to unfavorable currency impacts, reduction in channel inventory, demand weakness combined with a competitive pricing environment and impact of the change in the Supplies sales model. Printer unit volume decreased 16% and ARU increased by 1% as compared to the prior-year period. Printer unit volume decreased due to weakness in demand, our pricing discipline and focus on placing positive NPV units. Printer ARU increased primarily due to a favorable mix shift to high-value printers, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts and competitive pricing.

Net revenue for Commercial Hardware decreased 9% for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 as compared to the prior-year period primarily driven by a 10% decline in unit volume while the ARU remained flat. The unit volume in Commercial Hardware declined primarily due to a unit volume decline in LaserJet printers. The ARU in Commercial Hardware remained flat primarily due to ARU improvements in Personal Laser printers offset by unfavorable currency impacts. Printer unit volume in Consumer Hardware declined 18%, combined with a decline in other printing solutions largely driven by the divestiture of Snapfish in the prior-year period and a 10% decline in ARU, which resulted in a 35% decline in Consumer Hardware net revenue for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 as compared to the prior-year period. The unit volume decline in Consumer Hardware was primarily due to weakness in demand, our pricing discipline and our continued efforts to place positive NPV units. The ARU in Consumer Hardware decreased primarily due to unfavorable currency impacts.

Printing earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue increased by 0.2 percentage points for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 as compared to the prior-year period due to the gains from the divestiture of certain software assets, partially offset by decline in gross margin. The gross margin decline was primarily due to net unfavorable currency impacts, partially offset by operational improvements, favorable mix of Inkjet printers and a higher proportion of graphics and ink supplies. Operating expenses decreased primarily due to the gains from the divestiture of certain software assets to Open Text Corporation and cost-savingkey growth initiatives.

Corporate Investments

The loss from operations in Corporate Investments for the three and nine months ended July 31, ~~2016~~2017 was primarily due to expenses associated with our incubation projects.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We use cash generated by operations as our primary source of liquidity. We believe that internally generated cash flows are generally sufficient to support our operating businesses, capital expenditures, restructuring activities, ~~separation activities, principal and interest payments on~~maturing debt, income tax payments and the payment of stockholder dividends, in addition to investments and share repurchases. We are able to supplement this short-term liquidity, if necessary, with broad access to capital markets and credit facilities made available by various domestic and foreign financial institutions. While our access to capital markets may be constrained and our cost of borrowing may increase under certain business, market and economic conditions, our access to a variety of funding sources to meet our liquidity needs is designed to facilitate continued access to capital resources under all such conditions. Our liquidity is subject to various risks including the risks identified in the section entitled ~~"Risk Factors"~~“Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part III in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, ~~2015~~2016 and the market risks identified in the section entitled ~~"Quantitative~~“Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market ~~Risk"~~Risk” in Item 3 of Part I of this report, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Our cash balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world, with the majority of those amounts held outside of the ~~U.S.~~United States. We utilize a variety of planning and financing strategies in an effort to ensure that our worldwide cash is available when and where it is needed. Our cash position remains strong, and we expect that our cash balances, anticipated cash flow generated from operations and access to capital markets will be sufficient to cover our expected near-term cash outlays.

In September 2016, HP entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.’s printer business for $1.05 billion. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of calendar year 2017, pending regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Amounts held outside of the ~~U.S.~~United States are generally utilized to support ~~non U.S.~~non-U.S. liquidity needs, although a portion of those amounts may from time to time be subject to short-term intercompany loans into the ~~U.S.~~United States. Most of the amounts held outside of the ~~U.S.~~United States could be repatriated to the ~~U.S.,~~United States, but under current law, some would be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, less applicable foreign tax credits. Repatriation of some foreign earnings is restricted by local law. Except for foreign earnings that are considered indefinitely reinvested outside of the ~~U.S.,~~United States, we have provided for the U.S. federal tax liability on these earnings for financial statement purposes. Repatriation could result in additional income tax payments in future years. Where local restrictions prevent an efficient intercompany transfer of funds, our intent is that cash balances would remain outside of the ~~U.S.~~United States and we would meet liquidity needs through ongoing cash flows, external borrowings or both. We do not expect restrictions or potential taxes incurred on amounts repatriated to the ~~U.S.~~United States to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

The cash conversion cycle is the sum of DSO and DOS less DPO. Items which may cause the cash conversion cycle in a particular period to differ from a long-term sustainable rate include, but are not limited to, changes in business mix, changes in payment terms, extent of receivables factoring, seasonal trends and the timing of revenue recognition and inventory purchases within the period.

DSO measures the average number of days our receivables are outstanding. DSO is calculated by dividing ending accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, by a 90-day average net revenue. The decrease in DSO was primarily due to favorable customer mix and revenue ~~linearity and reduction of aged accounts receivable, partially offset by unfavorable currency impacts.~~linearity.

DOS measures the average number of days from procurement to sale of our product. DOS is calculated by dividing ending inventory by a 90-day average cost of revenue. The ~~decrease~~increase in DOS was primarily due to ~~strong inventory management.~~

Capital Resources

Debt Levels

We maintain debt levels that we establish through consideration of a number of factors, including cash flow expectations, cash requirements for operations, investment plans (including acquisitions), share repurchase activities, our cost of capital and targeted capital structure. Outstanding borrowings ~~decreased~~increased to $7.8 billion as of July 31, 2017 as compared to $6.8 billion as of ~~July~~October 31, 2016, ~~as compared to $8.9 billion as of October 31, 2015,~~ bearing weighted-average interest rates of 3.9% and 4.2% for July 31, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~3.7% for~~ October 31, ~~2015. During the first nine months of fiscal~~ 2016, ~~we repaid $2.1 billion of U.S. Dollar Global Notes.~~respectively.

Our weighted-average interest rate reflects the average effective rate on our borrowings prevailing during the period and reflects the impact of interest rate swaps. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note ~~10, "Financial Instruments"~~9, “Financial Instruments”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

As of July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, we maintain a senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility with aggregate lending commitments of $4.0 billion, which will be available until April 2, 2019 and is primarily to support the issuance of commercial ~~paper with aggregate lending commitments of $4.0 billion.~~paper. Funds ~~to be~~ borrowed under this revolving credit facility may also be used for general corporate purposes. As of July 31, 2017 we had $0.9 billion of commercial paper outstanding.

For more information on our borrowings, see Note ~~11, "Borrowings"~~10, “Borrowings”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Credit Ratings

Our credit risk is evaluated by major independent rating agencies based upon publicly available information as well as information obtained in our ongoing discussions with them. While we do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of a material amount of our debt, previous downgrades have increased the cost of borrowing under our credit facilities, have reduced market capacity for our commercial paper and have required the posting of additional collateral under some of our derivative contracts. In addition, any further downgrade to our credit ratings by any rating agencies may further impact us in a similar manner, and, depending on the extent of any such downgrade, could have a negative impact on our liquidity and capital position. We can access alternative sources of funding, including drawdowns under our credit facilities, if necessary, to offset potential reductions in the market capacity for our commercial paper.

considered enforceable and legally binding, the terms generally allow us the option to cancel, reschedule, and adjust terms based on our business needs prior to the delivery of goods or performance of services. In May 2017, we executed an agreement resulting in purchase obligations of $770 million, and the payments are due within two years.

Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plan Contributions

As of July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, we anticipate making contributions for the remainder of fiscal ~~2016~~year 2017 of approximately $3$5 million to our non-U.S. pension plans, $9$6 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified pension plan participants and ~~$11~~$2 million to cover benefit claims for our post-retirement benefit plans. Our policy is to fund our pension plans so that we meet at least the minimum contribution requirements, as established by local government, funding and taxing authorities. For more information on our retirement and post-retirement benefit plans, see Note ~~5, "Retirement~~4, “Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit ~~Plans"~~Plans”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Cost Savings Plan

We expect to make future cash payments of ~~approximately $200~~between $235 million and $385 million in connection with our ~~existing Fiscal 2015 Plan.~~cost savings plans through fiscal year 2021.

Uncertain Tax Positions

As of July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, we had approximately ~~$2.1~~$1.7 billion of recorded liabilities and related interest and penalties pertaining to uncertain tax positions. We are unable to make a reasonable estimate as to when cash settlement with the tax authorities might occur due to the uncertainties related to these tax matters. Payments of these obligations would result from settlements with taxing authorities. For more information on our uncertain tax positions, see Note ~~7, "Taxes~~6, “Taxes on ~~Earnings"~~Earnings”, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

~~Separation Costs~~

~~As of July 31, 2016, we expect to make future cash payments of approximately $120 million in connection with Separation costs, which are expected to be paid in the remainder of fiscal 2016.~~

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As part of our ongoing business, we have not participated in transactions that generate material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

We have third-party short-term financing arrangements intended to facilitate the working capital requirements of certain customers.

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to HP, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to ~~HP's~~HP’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during that quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On July 21, 2011, ~~HP's~~HP’s Board of Directors authorized a $10.0 billion share repurchase program. ~~HP may choose to repurchase shares when sufficient liquidity exists and the shares are trading at a discount relative to estimated intrinsic value.~~ This program, which does not have a specific expiration date, authorizes repurchases in the open market or in private transactions. On October 10, 2016, HP’s Board of Directors authorized an additional $3.0 billion for future repurchases of its outstanding shares of common stock. HP intends to use repurchases to offset the dilution created by shares issued under employee stock plans and to repurchase shares opportunistically. HP expects to repurchase shares from time to time during fiscal year 2017 as part of returning 50% to 75% of annual free cash flow to stockholders. Free cash flow equals cash flow from operations less net capital expenditures, which equals investments in property, plant and equipment, less proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment. All share repurchases settled in the third quarter of fiscal ~~2016~~year 2017 were open market transactions. As of July 31, ~~2016,~~2017, HP had approximately $3.0 billion remaining ~~authorization of $874 million for future~~under the share ~~repurchases.~~repurchase authorizations.
