(unaudited)

OF STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
NOTE 1 — EMC MERGER TRANSACTION, DIVESTITURES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION(in millions; unaudited; continued on next page)

EMC Merger Transaction — On October 12, 2015, Dell Technologies Inc. (formerly Denali Holding Inc., referred to as Parent or Dell Technologies) entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “EMC merger agreement”) with EMC Corporation (“EMC”), Dell Inc. (“Dell”) and Universal Acquisition Co., a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“EMC Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the EMC merger agreement, EMC Merger Sub will merge with and into EMC (“the EMC merger”), with EMC continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

Upon the closing of the EMC merger, each share of EMC common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“EMC common stock”) owned immediately prior to the effective time of the EMC merger (other than shares owned by Parent, EMC Merger Sub, EMC or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and other than shares with respect to which EMC’s shareholders are entitled to and properly exercise appraisal rights) automatically will be converted into the right to receive the merger consideration, consisting of (1) $24.05 in cash, without interest, and (2) a number of shares of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Class V common stock of Parent (the “Class V Common Stock”) equal to the quotient (rounded to the nearest five decimal points) obtained by dividing (A) 222,966,450 by (B) the aggregate number of shares of EMC common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the EMC merger, plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares. No fractional shares of Class V Common Stock will be issued in the EMC merger. The approximately 223 million shares of Class V Common Stock issuable in the EMC merger (assuming EMC shareholders are not entitled to or do not properly exercise appraisal rights) are intended to track and reflect the economic performance of approximately 65% of EMC’s current economic interest in the business of VMware, Inc. (“VMware”), which currently consists of approximately 343 million shares of VMware common stock. Based on the number of shares of EMC common stock Parent currently expects will be issued and outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the EMC merger, it is estimated that EMC shareholders will receive in the EMC merger approximately 0.111 shares of Class V Common Stock for each share of EMC common stock.

Basis of Presentation — The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2017 ("Fiscal 2017"). These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to fairly state the financial position of Dell Technologies Inc. (individually and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, "the Company"the "Company" or "Dell Technologies") as of July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016,February 3, 2017, the results of its operations and corresponding comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended July 29, 2016 and July 31, 2015, and, as well as its cash flows, for the sixthree months ended JulyMay 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016 and July 31, 2015. The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2016 ("Fiscal 2016") included in the proxy statement/prospectus dated June 6, 2016 forming part of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333 208524).2016.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the three and six months ended JulyMay 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016 and July 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or for any other fiscal period.

The Company's fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the Friday nearest January 31. The fiscal year ended February 3, 2017 ("Fiscal 2017") was a 53-week period while the fiscal year ending February 2, 2018 ("Fiscal 2018") will be a 52-week period.

10As a result of the EMC merger transaction completed on September 7, 2016, the Company's results for the fiscal periods reflected in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not directly comparable. The results of the businesses acquired in the EMC merger transaction are included in the consolidated results of Dell Technologies for the three months ended May 5, 2017. The Dell Technologies balance sheet reflects the full consolidation of EMC's assets and liabilities as a result of the closing of the EMC merger transaction on September 7, 2016.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, references in these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to "VMware" mean the VMware reportable segment, which reflects the operations of VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) within Dell Technologies.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"(the "FASB") issued amended guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The objective of the new standard is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede mostsubstantially all of the existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The new standard requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers 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. The new standard also provides guidance on the accounting for costs to fulfill or obtain a customer contract. Further, the new standard requires additional disclosures to help enable users of the financial statements to better understand the nature, amount, timing, risks, and judgments related to revenue recognition and related cash flows from contracts with customers.

In August 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of this standard. Public entities are required to adopt the new standard for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with the option of applying the standard as early as the original effective date for public entities.2017. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented (full retrospective method) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized as ofat the date of adoption.initial application in retained earnings (modified retrospective method). The Company currently expects to adopt this standard retrospectively to each prior period presented for the fiscal year beginning February 3, 2018.

While the Company is currently evaluating the financial and system impacts that the new standard will have on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company expects that unearned license revenue related to the sale of software licenses and related deliverables will decline upon adoption. Currently, the Company defers revenue for certain software arrangements due to the absence of vendor specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of fair value for all or a portion of the deliverables. Under the new standard, the Company will no longer be required to establish VSOE of fair value in order to account for elements in an arrangement as separate units of accounting, and will be able to record revenue upon satisfaction of each performance obligation. Additionally, the Company expects the new standard to have an impact in the way the transaction price is allocated for certain non-standard warranties. The new standard is expected to result in more of the aggregate transaction price related to the non-standard warranty being recorded as revenue upon delivery of the underlying product, because the Company will no longer defer revenue based on the separately stated price of the non-standard warranty provided under the contract. The Company continues to make progress in assessing the impacts of the standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and will continue to evaluate the impact of the new guidance, the effective date, and the method of adoption.

Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs — In April 2015, the FASB issued amended guidance whichany changes the classification of debt issuance costs in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The new guidance requires debt issuance costs to be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability consistent with the presentation of debt discounts, rather than as an asset as currently presented. The guidance related to recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs remains unchanged. The Company implemented the new presentation in the six months ended July 29, 2016 on a retrospective basis, and except for the reclassification of debt issuance costs of $128 million as of January 29, 2016 in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, there was no other impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements.standard or interpretations should they become available.

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities In January 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance on Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The standard addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Public entities must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impactdoes not expect that the standard will have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance on the accounting for leasing transactions. The primary objective of this update is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.  Public entities must adopt the new guidance for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Companies are required to use a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting — In March 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance on the accounting for employee share-based payments. The topics that were amended in the update involve several aspects ofpayments, including the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences,taxes and forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Public entities must adoptThe Company adopted this guidance during the three months ended May 5, 2017. In accordance with the new guidance, excess tax benefits or deficiencies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 2016.stock-based compensation are now reflected as a component of the provision for income taxes on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss), whereas they were previously recorded as additional paid-in capital. The Company is currently evaluatinghas elected to continue to estimate expected forfeitures. Additionally, the Company now presents excess tax benefits as an operating activity rather than a financing activity on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, while the cash flows related to employee taxes

paid for withheld shares are presented as a financing activity with prior periods adjusted accordingly. The adoption of the amended guidance did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The prospective impact of the new standard will depend on the Company's stock price at the vesting or exercise dates of the awards and the number of awards that vest or are exercised in each period, but we do not expect the impact that the standard will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements.to be material in future periods.

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments In June 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. Public entities must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. All entities may adopt the amendments in the new standard as of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. However, earlierEarlier adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments — In August 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance on the presentation and classification of eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing existing diversity in practice. Public entities must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Companies should reflect any adjustments on a retrospective basis, if practicable; otherwise, adoption is required to be applied as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of adoption as well as the impact that the standard will have on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

11Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory — In October 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance on the accounting for income taxes. The new guidance requires companies to recognize the income tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers, other than transfers of inventory, when the transfer occurs instead of when the asset is sold to a third party. The new guidance should be applied on a modified-retrospective basis with the cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company early adopted this guidance during the three months ended May 5, 2017.  At adoption, approximately $84 million was reclassified from other non-current liabilities to retained earnings, resulting in a net credit to retained earnings.

Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment — In January 2017, the FASB issued amended guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Instead, under the amendments in the new guidance, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. Public entities must adopt the new guidance in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance and timing of adoption, but does not expect that the standard will have an impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

____________________
(a) The Company did not transfer any securities between levels during the sixthree months ended July 29, 2016.May 5, 2017.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure financial instruments at fair value:

Money Market Funds— The Company's investment in money market funds that are classified as cash equivalents have original maturitieshold underlying investments with a weighted average maturity of 90 days or less and are recognized at fair value. The valuations of these securities are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, when available, or pricing models whereby all significant inputs are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The Company reviews security pricing and assesses liquidity on a quarterly basis. As of May 5, 2017, the Company's U.S. portfolio had no material exposure to money market funds with a fluctuating net asset value.

DuringCash Equivalent Municipal Obligations — The Company's municipal obligations that are classified as cash equivalents have original maturities of 90 days or less and are recognized at fair value. The valuation methodology for these securities is the three months ended July 29, 2016,same as the Company issued $23.25 billionmethodology for non-cash equivalent municipal obligations as described in the Debt Securities section below.

Debt Securities — The majority of the Company's debt securities consist of various fixed income securities such as U.S. government and agencies, U.S. corporate, and foreign. Valuation is based on pricing models whereby all significant inputs, including benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issue spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and other market related data, are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset. Inputs are documented in connectionaccordance with the pending EMC merger transaction.fair value measurements hierarchy. The net proceeds were deposited directly into escrowCompany reviews security pricing and invested in money market funds. Asassesses liquidity on a quarterly basis. See Note 5 of July 29, 2016, these money market funds had a carrying value of approximately $23.3 billion, which was included in restricted cash and classified as non-current onthe Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Financial Position as the funds will be used to consummate the EMC merger transaction.for additional information about investments.

Equity and Other Securities — The majority of the Company's investments in equity and other securities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of strategic investments in publicly traded companies. The valuation of these securities is based on quoted prices in active markets.
Derivative Instruments — The Company's derivative financial instruments consist primarily of foreign currency forward and purchased option contracts and interest rate swaps. The fair value of the portfolio is determined using valuation models based on market observable inputs, including interest rate curves, forward and spot prices for currencies, and implied volatilities. Credit risk is also factored into the fair value calculation of the Company's derivative instrument portfolio. See Note 68 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the Company's derivative financial instrument activities.

Debt - Other — As of January 29, 2016, the Company recognized a portion of its short-term debt at fair value. This debt was represented by promissory notes issued on August 3, 2015 and September 14, 2015, which were extinguished during the six months ended July 29, 2016. The Company determined fair value using a discounted cash flow model which included significant unobservable inputs and assumptions.  The unobservable inputs used include projected cash outflows over varying possible maturity dates, weighted by the probability of those possible outcomes, along with assumed discount rates.

Common Stock Purchase Agreements — The equity financing agreements obtained by Parent in connection with the EMC merger transaction described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements permit Michael S. Dell, the MSD Partners Funds, Silver Lake Partners, and Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited ("Temasek") to purchase Parent common stock at a fixed price per share contingent on the closing of the EMC merger transaction. Each agreement also provides for a price protection in the event additional equity investors purchase Parent common stock at a lower price. The agreements with Michael S. Dell, the MSD Partners Funds, and Silver Lake Partners are not required to be remeasured to fair value and are effectively capital commitments, because of the degree of control and influence such persons can exercise over Parent, including control over when and at what price Parent will issue new shares, as well as the fact that the equity agreements were entered into solely for the purpose of financing the EMC merger transaction. The provision relating to price protection is considered substantive to Temasek as an unrelated party. Consequently, the Company has recognized the contract as an asset or liability, initially recorded at fair value of zero, with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings. As of July 29, 2016, the Company recorded a liability of $1 million related to the Temasek equity contract.

The Company determined the fair value of this forward contract using a Black-Scholes valuation model, which included significant unobservable inputs and assumptions. The unobservable inputs used include the current value of the Parent common stock, which was estimated based on a combination of a discounted cash flow methodology and a market approach, the probability of the EMC merger occurring, the time period to contract expiration, and the probability that Parent will issue its shares below the foregoing fixed price per share. Varying these inputs could materially alter the fair value recognized for this instrument.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis — Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and therefore are not included in the recurring fair value table above. These assets consist primarily of non-financial assets such as goodwill and intangible assets and investments accounted for under the cost method.assets. See Note 79 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about goodwill and intangible assets.

As of May 5, 2017 and February 3, 2017, the Company held strategic investments of $489 million and $455 million, respectively. These investments are accounted for under the cost method and are not included in the recurring fair value table above. Investments accounted for under the cost method are measuredrecorded at cost initially, which approximates fair value initially.value. Subsequently, whenif there is an indicator of impairment, the impairment is recognized. In evaluating these investments for impairment, the Company uses inputs including pre- and post-money valuations of recent financing events and the impact of those on its fully diluted ownership percentages, as well as other available information regarding the issuer's historical and forecasted performance. As these investments are early-stage companies which are not publicly traded, it is not practicable for the Company to reliably estimate the fair value of these investments.

Carrying Value and Estimated Fair Value of Outstanding Debt— The following table summarizes the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company's outstanding debt as described in Note 57 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the current portion, as of the dates indicated:

Credit Quality

The following table summarizes customer receivables, gross, including accrued interest, by credit quality indicator segregated by class, as of July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016.February 3, 2017. The categories shown in the table below segregate customer receivables based on the relative degrees of credit risk. The credit quality indicators for DPA revolving accounts are measured primarily as of each quarter-end date, while all other indicators are generally updated on a periodic basis.

For DPA revolving receivables shown in the table below, the Company makes credit decisions based on proprietary scorecards, which include the customer's credit history, payment history, credit usage, and other credit agency-related elements. The higher quality category includes prime accounts generally of a higher credit quality that are comparable to U.S. customer FICO scores of 720 or above. The mid-category represents the mid-tier accounts that are comparable to U.S. customer FICO scores from 660 to 719. The lower category is generally sub-prime and represents lower credit quality accounts that are comparable to U.SU.S. customer FICO scores below 660. For the DBC revolving receivables and fixed-term commercial receivables shown in the table below, an internal grading system is utilized that assigns a credit level score based on a number of considerations, including liquidity, operating performance, and industry outlook. The grading criteria and classifications for the fixed-term products differ from those for the revolving products as loss experience varies between these product and customer groups. The credit quality categories cannot be compared between the different classes as loss experience varies substantially between the classes.

____________________
(a)During the three months ended May 5, 2017, the Company modified its credit scoring methodology for fixed-term financing receivables in response to changes in its go-to-market strategy. This methodology has been modified to a single, consistent, and comparable model across all fixed-term product customers. In connection with this change, the Company has re-categorized existing fixed-term customers and has recast prior period credit quality categories to align with the current period presentation.

Securitizations and Structured Financing Debt

The Company transfers certain U.S. customer financing receivables to Special Purpose Entities ("SPEs") that meet the definition of a Variable Interest Entity ("VIE") and are consolidated, along with the associated debt, into the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, as the Company is the primary beneficiary of those VIEs. These SPEs are bankruptcy remote legal entities with separate assets and liabilities. The purpose of these SPEs is tomaintains programs which facilitate the funding of customerfinancing receivables in the capital markets.

The following table shows financing receivables held by the consolidated VIEs as of the respective dates:

EMC Merger Financing— On June 1, 2016, two subsidiaries of the Company completed a private offering of the First Lien Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $20.0 billion, and on June 22, 2016, two subsidiaries of the Company completed a private offering of the Senior Unsecured Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $3.25 billion.

Under the terms of the agreements relating to the issuance of the First Lien Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes, the proceeds of the offerings were deposited into escrow, with such proceeds to be released to finance the consummation of the EMC merger subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions. Upon the completion of the EMC merger, Dell International L.L.C. (a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Dell Technologies) and EMC will assume all of the co-issuers' obligations under the First Lien Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes, and the First Lien Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes will be guaranteed on a joint and several basis by Dell Technologies, Denali Intermediate Inc. (a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Dell Technologies), Dell Inc. and each of Denali Intermediate Inc.'s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (including EMC's wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries following the completion of the EMC merger) that guarantees obligations under the new senior secured credit facilities that will be entered into in connection with the EMC merger.

The net proceeds held in escrow from the private offerings of multiple series of the First Lien Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes were included in restricted cash in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of July 29, 2016, and such proceeds will be held as restricted cash until the completion of the EMC merger. The receipt of the net proceeds is not reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, given that the proceeds were required to be deposited directly into escrow rather than into the Company's unrestricted cash accounts. During the three months ended July 29, 2016, as required under the escrow agreement,May 5, 2017, the Company prepaidrefinanced the Term Loan B Facility to reduce the interest into escrowrate margin by 0.75% and to increase the outstanding principal amount by $500 million. The Company applied the proceeds from the Term Loan B Facility refinancing to repay $500 million principal amount of the Margin Bridge Facility, without premium or penalty, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Additionally, during the three months ended May 5, 2017, the Company issued the Margin Loan Facility in the principal amount of $40 million, which is reflected as a cash outflow from investing activities in$2.0 billion, and used the Condensed Consolidated Statementsproceeds of Cash Flows. This amount will be returnedthe new facility to extinguish the Company uponMargin Bridge Facility, without premium or penalty.

Senior Secured Credit FacilitiesAt the closing of the EMC merger transaction on September 7, 2016, the Company entered into a credit agreement that provides for senior secured credit facilities (the "Senior Secured Credit Facilities") in the aggregate principal amount of $17.6 billion comprising (a) term loan facilities and paid(b) a senior secured Revolving Credit Facility, which includes capacity for up to $0.5 billion of letters of credit and for borrowings of up to $0.4 billion under swing-line loans. As of May 5, 2017, available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility totaled $2.7 billion.

NOTE 68 — DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivative Instruments

As part of its risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments, primarily foreign currency forward and option contracts purchased options, and interest rate swaps, to hedge certain foreign currency and interest rate exposures. exposures, respectively.

The Company's objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures with gains and losses on the derivative contracts used to hedge the exposures, thereby reducing volatility of earnings and protecting the fair values of assets and liabilities. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the Company assesses hedge effectiveness both at the onset of the hedge and at regular intervals throughout the life of the derivative and recognizes any ineffective portion of the hedge in earnings as a component of interest and other, net. Hedge ineffectiveness recognized in earnings was not material during the three and six months ended JulyMay 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016 and July 31, 2015.2016.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and purchased optionsoption contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in its forecasted transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Hedge accounting is applied based upon the criteria established by accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The risk of loss associated with purchased options is limited to premium amounts paid for the option contracts. The risk of loss associated with forward contracts is equal to the exchange rate differential from the time the contract is entered into until the time it is settled. The majority of these contracts typically expire in twelve months or less.

During the three and six months ended JulyMay 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016, and July 31, 2015, the Company did not discontinue any cash flow hedges related to foreign exchange contracts that had a material impact on the Company's results of operations due to the probability that the forecasted cash flows would not occur.

The Company uses forward contracts to hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency. These contracts generally expire in three months or less, are considered economic hedges, and are not designated for hedge accounting. The change in the fair value of these instruments represents a natural hedge as their gains and losses offset the changes in the underlying fair value of the monetary assets and liabilities due to movements in currency exchange rates.

In connection with the expanded offerings of DFS in Europe, forward contracts are used to hedge financing receivables denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts are not designated for hedge accounting and most expire within three years or less.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest rate swaps to hedge the variability in cash flows related to the interest rate payments on structured financing debt. The interest rate swaps economically convert the variable rate on the structured financing debt to a fixed interest rate to match the underlying fixed rate being received on fixed-term customer leases and loans. These contracts are not designated for hedge accounting and most expire within three years or less.

Interest rate swaps are utilized to manage the interest rate risk, at a portfolio level, associated with DFS operations in Europe. The interest rate swaps economically convert the fixed rate on financing receivables to a three-month Euribor floating rate basis in order to match the floating rate nature of the banks' funding pool. These contracts are not designated for hedge accounting and most expire within three years or less.

The Company utilizes cross currency amortizing swaps to hedge the currency and interest rate risk exposure associated with the securitization program that was established in Europe in January 2017.  The cross currency swaps combine a Euro-based interest rate swap with a British Pound or U.S. Dollar foreign exchange forward contract in which the Company pays a fixed British Pound or U.S. Dollar amount and receives a floating amount in Euro linked to the one-month Euribor.  The notional value of the swaps amortizes in line with the expected cash flows and run-off of the securitized assets.  The swaps mature within five years or less and are not designated for hedge accounting.

NOTE 79 — GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In connection with the going-private transaction on October 29, 2013, all of the Company’s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities were accounted for and recognized at fair value on the transaction date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was accounted for and recognized as goodwill. Accordingly, on the date of the going-private transaction, there was no excess fair value for any of the Company's goodwill reporting units.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually during the third fiscal quarter and whenever events or circumstances may indicate that an impairment has occurred. Based on the results of the annual impairment test, which was a qualitative and quantitative test, no impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets existed for any reporting unit as of October 30, 2015. As28, 2016. No events or circumstances transpired subsequent to the annual impairment test that would indicate a resultpotential impairment of this analysis, it was determined that the excess of fair value over carrying amount was greater than 15% for all of the Company's existing goodwill reporting units as of October 30, 2015. The announcements of the divestitures of Dell Services and DSG during the six months ended July 29, 2016 created triggering events that required assessments of goodwill. As a result of these assessments, the Company determined no impairment existed as of July 29, 2016.May 5, 2017. Further, the Company did not have any accumulated goodwill impairment charges as of July 29, 2016.May 5, 2017.

Management exercised significant judgment related to the above assessment, including the identification of goodwill reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to goodwill reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each goodwill reporting unit. The fair value of each goodwill reporting unit is generally estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology. This analysis requires significant judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, the estimation of the long-term growth rate of the Company's business, and the determination of the Company's weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the fair value of the goodwill reporting unit, potentially resulting in a non-cash impairment charge.

NOTE 12 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters —

The Company is involved in various claims, suits, assessments, investigations, and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, including those identified below, consisting of matters involving consumer, antitrust, tax, intellectual property, and other issues on a global basis. The Company accrues a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and that it can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss. The Company reviews these accruals at least quarterly and adjusts them to reflect ongoing negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other relevant information. To the extent new information is obtained and the Company's views on the probable outcomes of claims, suits, assessments, investigations, or legal proceedings change, changes in the Company's accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period in which such a determination is made. For some matters, the amount of liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and therefore accruals have not been made. The following is a discussion of the Company's significant legal matters and other proceedings:

Certain defendants filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint in the Ford actionon June 21, 2016. A hearing on those motions was held on February 26, 2016 and February 29, 2016.3, 2017. On March 7, 2016,May 2, 2017, the defendants movedCourt dismissed the amended complaint for failure to stay or dismiss the Jacobs action in favor of the Ford action. On April 19, 2016, EMC, the Company, Dell, Universal, and certain of the individual defendants filed briefs in support of the previously filed motions to dismiss. The parties are still in the process of briefing the motion to dismiss.

No trial dates have been set in any of these actions. The outcome of these lawsuits is uncertain, and additional lawsuits may be brought or additional claims advanced concerning the EMC merger. An adverse judgment for monetary damages could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations. A preliminary injunction could delay or jeopardize the completion of the EMC merger, and an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctivestate a claim upon which relief could indefinitely enjoin the completion of thebe granted and no appeal was taken. All fifteen EMC merger.merger-related lawsuits are now fully and finally resolved.

Appraisal Proceedings — Holders of shares of Dell common stock who did not vote on September 12, 2013 in favor of the proposal to adopt the amended going-private transaction agreement and who properly demanded appraisal of their shares and who otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporate Law ("DGCL") are entitled to seek appraisal for, and obtain payment in cash for the judicially determined "fair value" (as defined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL) of, their shares in lieu of receiving the going-private transaction consideration. This appraised value could be more than, the same as, or less than the $13.75 per share going-private transaction consideration. Dell initially recorded a liability of $13.75 for each share with respect to which appraisal has been demanded and as to which the demand has not been withdrawn, together with interest at the statutory rate discussed below. As of July 29, 2016,May 5, 2017 and February 3, 2017, this liability was approximately $129 million, compared to approximately $593 million as of January 29, 2016, as the Company settled a substantial portion of the liability during the three months ended July 29, 2016. Also during the three months ended July 29, 2016, as discussed further below, themillion. The Court of Chancery ruled that that the fair value of the appraisal shares as of October 29, 2013, the date on which the going-private transaction became effective, was $17.62 per share. The Company expects to appeal this ruling. The Company believes it was adequately reserved for the appraisal proceedings as of July 29, 2016.

Between October 29, 2013 and February 25, 2014, former Dell stockholders filed petitions in thirteen separate matters commencing appraisal proceedings in the Delaware Court of Chancery in which they seek a determination of the fair value of a total of approximately 38 million shares of Dell common stock plus interest, costs, and attorneys' fees. These matters have been consolidated as In Re Appraisal of Dell (C.A. No. 9322-VCL). The trial took place during the week of October 5, 2015.

The appraisal proceedings were conducted in accordance with the rules of the Delaware Court of Chancery. In these proceedings, the Court of Chancery determined the fair value of the shares as to which appraisal has been properly demanded, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the going-private transaction. Interest on such fair value from the effective time of the going-private transaction through the date of payment of the judgment will be compounded quarterly and will accrue at a per annum rate of 5% over the Federal Reserve discount rate (including any surcharge) as established from time to time. Any payment in respect of the shares subject to appraisal rights will be required to be paid in cash.

The petitioners sought $28.61 per share, plus interest. Dell, by contrast, believes that the fair value of Dell on the day the going-private transaction was completed was $12.68 per share. The number of shares subject to appraisal demands, including shares held by those parties who have sought appraisal but not filed petitions, originally was 38,766,982. By orders dated June 27 and September 10, 2014, and May 13, May 14, July 13 and July 28, 2015, the Court of Chancery dismissed claims of holders of approximately 2,530,322 shares for failure to comply with the statutory requirements for seeking appraisal. On July 30, 2015, Dell moved for summary judgment seeking to dismiss claims of holders of an additional 30,730,930 shares (as well as a number of shares previously disqualified on other grounds) because those shares were voted in favor of the going-private transaction, and thus failed to comply with the statutory requirements for seeking appraisal. On May 11, 2016, the Court of Chancery granted Dell's motion and dismissed the appraisal claims of the holders of the 30,730,930 shares, determining that they were entitled to the merger consideration without interest. On May 18, 2016, the petitioners filed a motion for an equitable award of interest, which was denied by the Court on May 31, 2016.

The Court of Chancery ruled on May 31, 2016, that the fair value of shares as of October 29, 2013, the date on which the going-private transaction became effective, was $17.62 per share. This ruling would entitle the holders of the remaining 5,505,730 shares subject to the appraisal proceedings to $17.62 per share, plus interest at a statutory rate, compounded quarterly. On June 6, 2016, the petitioners filed a motion to amend the Court’s memorandum opinion, which was denied by the Court on June 16, 2016. The Court of Chancery’s decisions are subject to review on appeal when final judgment is entered.

On June 29, 2016, the Company, Dell and certain funds affiliated with T. Rowe entered into a settlement agreement to resolve a dispute regarding the fair value and interest due on approximately 31,653,905 shares held by the funds, representing the 30,730,930 shares subject to claims that were dismissed on May 11, 2016 plus an additional 922,975 shares that had been previously disqualified on other grounds. The terms of the T. Rowe settlement, among other matters, provide that, in exchange for a release and dismissal of all asserted claims, the Company pay $13.75 per share for a total sum of approximately $463 million, including interest. On June 29,November 21, 2016, the Court of Chancery entered an order approvingfinal judgment in the settlement, which was subsequently consummated. The remaining 5,505,730 shares not subjectappraisal action. On November 22, 2016,

Dell filed a notice of appeal to the settlement agreement remain subject toDelaware Supreme Court. That appeal is pending. The Company believes it was adequately reserved for the appraisal proceedings.proceedings as of May 5, 2017.

Securities Litigation — On May 22, 2014, a securities class action seeking compensatory damages was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned the City of Pontiac Employee Retirement System vs. Dell Inc. et. al. (Case No. 1:14-cv-03644).  The action names as defendants Dell Inc. and certain current and former executive officers, and alleges that Dell made false and misleading statements about Dell’sDell's business operations and products between February 22, 2012 and May 22, 2012, which resulted in artificially inflated stock prices. The case was transferred to the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, where the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. TheOn September 16, 2016, the Court denied the motion to dismiss and the case is fully briefed and a ruling is expected in 2016.proceeding with discovery. The defendants believe the claims asserted are without merit and the risk of material loss is remote.

Copyright Levies — The Company's obligation to collect and remit copyright levies in certain European Union ("EU") countries may be affected by the resolution of legal proceedings pending in Germany against various companies, including Dell's German subsidiary, and elsewhere in the EU against other companies in Dell's industry. The plaintiffs in those proceedings, some of which are described below, generally seek to impose or modify the levies with respect to sales of such equipment as multifunction devices, phones, personal computers, and printers, alleging that such products enable the copying of copyrighted materials. Some of the proceedings also challenge whether the levy schemes in those countries comply with EU law. Certain EU member countries that do not yet impose levies on digital devices are expected to implement legislation to enable them to extend existing levy schemes, while some other EU member countries are expected to limit the scope of levy schemes and their applicability in the digital hardware environment. Dell, 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. The Company continues to collect levies in certain EU countries where it has determined that based on local laws it is probable that it has a payment obligation. The amount of levies is generally based on the number of products sold and the per-product amounts of the levies, which vary. The Company accrues a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and when it can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss.

On December 29, 2005, Zentralstelle für private Überspielungsrechte ("ZPÜ"), a joint association of various German collecting societies, instituted arbitration proceedings against Dell's German subsidiary before the Board of Arbitration at the German Patent and Trademark Office in Munich, and subsequently filed a lawsuit in the German Regional Court in Munich on February 21, 2008, seeking levies to be paid on each personal computer sold by Dell in Germany through the end of calendar year 2007. On December 23, 2009, ZPÜ and the German industry association, BCH, reached a settlement regarding audio-video copyright levy litigation (with levies ranging from €3.15 to €13.65 per unit). Dell joined this settlement on February 23, 2010, and has paid the amounts due under the settlement. On March 25, 2014, ZPÜ and Dell reached a settlement for levies to be paid on each personal computer sold for the period of January 2, 2011 through December 31, 2016. The amount of the settlement is not material to the Company. The amount of any levies payable after calendar year 2016, as well as the Company's ability to recover such amounts through increased prices, remains uncertain.

German courts are also considering a lawsuit originally filed in July 2004 by VG Wort, a German collecting society representing certain copyright holders, against Hewlett-Packard Company in the Stuttgart Civil Court seeking levies on printers, and a lawsuit originally filed in September 2003 by the same plaintiff against Fujitsu Siemens Computer GmbH in Munich Civil Court in Munich, Germany seeking levies on personal computers. In each case, the civil and appellate courts held that the subject classes of equipment were subject to levies. In July 2011, the German Federal Supreme Court, to which the lower court holdings have been appealed, referred each case to the Court of Justice of the European Union, submitting a number of legal questions on the interpretation of the European Copyright Directive which the German Federal Supreme Court deems necessary for its decision. In August 2014, the German Supreme Court delivered an opinion ruling that printers and personal computers are subject to levies, and referred the case back to the Court of Appeals. Dell joined the industry settlement in the Fujitsu Siemens case, and Dell believes it has no remaining material obligations in either case.

Proceedings seeking to impose or modify copyright levies for sales of digital devices also have been instituted in courts in other EU member states. Even in countries where Dell is not a party to such proceedings, decisions in those cases could impact Dell's business and the amount of copyright levies Dell may be required to collect.

The ultimate resolution of these proceedings and the associated financial impact to the Company, if any, including the number of units potentially affected, the amount of levies imposed, and the ability of the Company to recover such amounts, remain uncertain at this time. Should the courts determine there is liability for previous units shipped beyond the amount of levies the Company has collected or accrued, the Company would be liable for such incremental amounts. Recovery of any such amounts from others by the Company would be possible only on future collections related to future shipments.

Other Litigation - The various legal proceedings in which Dell is involved include commercial litigation and a variety of patent suits. In some of these cases, Dell is the sole defendant. More often, particularly in the patent suits, Dell is one of a number of defendants in the electronics and technology industries. Dell is actively defending a number of patent infringement suits, and several pending claims are in various stages of evaluation. While the number of patent cases has grownvaries over time, Dell does not currently anticipate that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

As of July 29, 2016,May 5, 2017, the Company does not believe there is a reasonable possibility that a material loss exceeding the amounts already accrued for these or other proceedings or matters has been incurred. However, since the ultimate resolution of any such proceedings and matters is inherently unpredictable, the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows could be materially affected in any particular period by unfavorable outcomes in one or more of these proceedings or matters. Whether the outcome of any claim, suit, assessment, investigation, or legal proceeding, individually or collectively, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows will

depend on a number of variables, including the nature, timing, and amount of any associated expenses, amounts paid in settlement, damages, or other remedies or consequences.

Indemnifications —

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contractual arrangements under which it may agree to indemnify the third party to such arrangements from any losses incurred relating to the services it performs on behalf of the Company or for losses arising from certain events as defined in the particular contract, such as litigation or claims relating to past performance. Such indemnification obligations may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, payments related to these indemnifications have not been material to the Company.

In connection with the divestitures discussed in Note 3 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has indemnified the purchasers of businesses for the occurrence of specified events. The Company does not currently believe that contingent obligations to provide indemnification in connection with these divestitures will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Purchase Obligations

The Company has contractual obligations to purchase goods or services, which specify significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. As of May 5, 2017, the Company had $2,674 million, $260 million, and $432 million in purchase obligations for Fiscal 2018, Fiscal 2019, and Fiscal 2020 and thereafter, respectively.

NOTE 1013 — INCOME AND OTHER TAXES

For the three and six months ended JulyMay 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016, the Company's effective income tax raterates for continuing operations was 7.7%were 33.3% and -6.5%(18.4)% on pre-tax losses from continuing operations of $286$2,073 million and $648 million, respectively. In comparison, for the three and six months ended July 31, 2015, the Company's effective income tax rates were 10.2% and 9.0% on pre-tax losses from continuing operations of $325 million and $811$358 million, respectively. The change in the Company's provision foreffective income taxestax rate was primarily attributable to prior year tax charges on previously untaxed earningsrecognized during the three months ended April 29, 2016 relating to the divestiture of foreign subsidiaries that will no longer be permanently reinvested as a result of the Dell Services, and DSG divestitures. These tax charges were $66 million and $201 million for the three and six months ended July 29, 2016, respectively. Off-setting these tax charges were increasedas well as tax benefits from interest expense in the United States for debt related tocharges associated with the EMC merger. Seemerger transaction incurred during the three months ended May 5, 2017, including purchase accounting adjustments, interest charges, and stock-based compensation expense. For more information regarding the EMC merger transaction, see Note 2 and Note 5 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the divestitures and the EMC merger financing.Statements. The income tax rate for future quarters of Fiscal 20172018 will be impacted by the actual mix of jurisdictions in which income is generated.

The differences between the estimated effective income tax rates and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% principally result from the Company's geographical distribution of income change in valuation allowance for deductible temporary differences or carryforwards, and differences between the book and tax treatment of certain items. A portion of the Company's operations is subject to a reduced tax rate or is free of tax under various tax holidays. A significant portion of these income tax benefits is relatedrelate to a tax holiday that will expire on December 31, 2016. The Company has negotiated new terms for the affected subsidiary, which provides for a reduced income tax rate and will be effective for a two-year bridge period expiringexpires in January 2019. The Company's other tax holidays will expire in whole or in part during Fiscalfiscal years 2019 through Fiscal 2023. Many of these tax holidays and reduced tax rates may be extended when certain conditions are met or may be terminated early if certain conditions are not met.

During Fiscal 2014, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") issued a revised Revenue Agent's Report ("RAR") for fiscal years 2004 through 2006, proposing certain assessments primarily related to transfer pricing matters.  The Company disagrees with certain of the proposed assessments and has contested them through the IRS administrative appeals procedures.  The Company’sCompany's U.S. federal income tax returns for fiscal years 2007 through 2009 are currently under examinationconsideration by the IRS andOffice of Appeals of the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). The IRS issued a RARRevenue Agent's Report ("RAR") related to those years during the six monthsfiscal year ended July 29, 2016.  Similar to the action taken in connection with the audit of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for fiscal years 2004 through 2006, theFebruary 3, 2017.  The IRS has proposed adjustments primarily relating to certain tax positions taken on the tax returnstransfer pricing matters with which the Company disagrees and will contest through the IRS administrative appeals procedures. Prior to the EMC merger transaction, EMC received a RAR for its tax years 2009 and 2010, and during the three months ended May 5, 2017, EMC received an RAR for its tax year 2011.  The Company believes it has valid positions supporting its tax returnsalso disagrees with certain proposed adjustments in these RARs and that it is adequately reserved.currently contesting the proposed adjustments through the IRS administrative appeals process.

The Company is also currently under income tax audits in various state and foreign jurisdictions.  The Company is undergoing negotiations, and in some cases contested proceedings, relating to tax matters with the taxing authorities in these jurisdictions.  The Company believes that it has provided adequate reserves related to all matters contained in tax periods open to examination.  Although the Company believes it has made adequate provisions for the uncertainties surrounding these audits, should the Company experience unfavorable outcomes, such outcomes could have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.  Although timing of resolution or closure of audits is not certain, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that tax audit resolutions could reduce its unrecognized tax benefits by an amount between $300 million to $750 million in the next twelve months.  Such a reduction could have a material effect on the Company’s effective tax rate.  Net unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company's effective tax rate.  With respect to major U.S. state and foreign taxing jurisdictions, the Company is generally not subject to tax examinations for years prior to fiscal year 2000.2007.

Judgment is required in evaluating the Company's uncertain tax positions and determining the Company's provision for income taxes. The Company's net unrecognized tax benefits were $3.1 billion as of both May 5, 2017 and February 3, 2017 and are included in accrued and other, and other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position was $3.2 billion and $3.1 billion asPosition. The Company does not anticipate a significant change to the total amount of July 29, 2016 and January 29, 2016, respectively.unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

The Company takes certain non-income tax positions in the jurisdictions in which it operates and has received certain non-income tax assessments from various jurisdictions. The Company believes that a material loss in these matters is not probable and that it is not reasonably possible that a material loss exceeding amounts already accrued has been incurred.  The Company believes its positions in these non-income tax litigation matters are supportable and that it ultimately will prevail.prevail in the matters. In the normal

course of business, the Company's positions and conclusions related to its non-income taxes could be challenged and assessments may be made. To the extent new information is obtained and the Company's views on its positions, probable outcomes of assessments, or litigation change, changes in estimates to the Company's accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period in which such a determination is made. In the resolution process for income tax and non-income tax audits, the Company may be required to provide collateral guarantees or indemnification to regulators and tax authorities until the matter is resolved.

Products and Services After the EMC Merger

We describe below what we currently expect will be the product and services business units, and reportable segments, of our company after the EMC merger is completed.

Client Solutions—The Client Solutions business will consist of our existing Client Solutions business unit. Client Solutions offerings include branded hardware, such as desktop PCs, notebooks and tablets, and branded peripherals, such as monitors, printers and projectors, as well as third-party software and peripherals. Our computing devices are designed with our commercial and consumer customers’ needs in mind, and we seek to optimize performance, reliability, manageability, design and security. In addition to the traditional PC business, we also have a portfolio of end-to-end thin client offerings that is well-positioned to benefit from the growth trends in cloud computing. Client Solutions hardware and services also provide the architecture to enable the IoT and connected ecosystems to securely and efficiently capture massive amounts of data for analytics and actionable insights for commercial customers. We will also offer attached software, peripherals and services, including support and deployment, configuration and extended warranty services as well as financing options and services offered by Dell Financial Services.

Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) — EMC’s Information Storage segment and our existing Enterprise Solutions Group will be merged to create the Infrastructure Solutions Group.

Business Trends and Challenges

We are seeing an unprecedented rate of change in the IT industry, butindustry. Organizations of all kinds are embracing digital technology to achieve their business objectives. Our vision is to be the essential infrastructure company and leader in end-user computing, data center infrastructure solutions, virtualization, and cloud software that our strategy remains focusedcustomers continue to trust and rely on being a leading provider of scalable end-to-end technology solutions.for their IT solutions and transformations. We accelerate results for our customers by enabling them to be more efficient, mobile, informed, and secure.  We continue to invest in R&D,research and development, sales, and other key areas of our business to deliver superior products and solutionsolutions capabilities and to drive execution of long-term profitable growth. We believe that our results will improve over time in connection withbenefit from an integrated go-to-market strategy, including enhanced coordination among the productivity initiatives directed at our salesforcefamily of Dell Technologies companies, and as a result offrom our differentiated products and solutions capabilities. We intend to continue to execute on our business model and seek to balance liquidity, profitability, and growth to position our company for long-term success.

We are able to leverage our traditional strength in the PC market to offer solutions and services that provide higher value recurring revenue streams. We anticipateGiven the macroeconomic environment and computing trends, we expect that the demand environment will continue to be uneven and expect intensifyingcyclical and that market competition in our Client Solutions Group business given the macroeconomic environment and computing trends.will intensify. However, we are committed to a long-term growth strategy that we believe will benefit from the consolidation trends that are occurring in the market.our markets. Our Client Solutions Group offerings remain an important element of our strategy, generating strong cash flow and opportunities for cross-selling of complementary solutions.

We expect that our ESG business, which will be referred to as ISG after the EMC merger,Infrastructure Solutions Group will continue to be adversely affected by declines in the traditional storage market. Throughand server markets. Cloud-native applications are expected to continue as a primary growth driver in the infrastructure market as IT organizations increasingly become multi-cloud environments. We believe the complementary cloud solutions across our business, created through our combination with EMC, strongly position us to meet these demands for our customers who are increasingly looking to leverage cloud-based computing. Further, we will be able to provide new and more robust storage and data center solutions to meet the evolving needs of our customers. We also anticipate significant growth in demand for cloud offerings. We believe the complementary cloud solutions of Dell and EMC strongly position us to meet these demands for our customers who are increasingly looking to leverage the cloud. In addition, we also continue to be impacted by the emerging trends of enterprises deploying software-defined storage, hyper-converged, and modular solutions based on server-centric architectures.

We manage our business on a U.S. dollar basis. However, we have a large global presence, generating approximately 50%half of our revenue by sales to customers outside of the United States during the first sixthree months of Fiscal 20172018 and the first sixthree months of Fiscal 2016.2017. Our revenues, therefore, can be impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We utilize a comprehensive hedging strategy intended to mitigate the impact of foreign currency volatility over time, and we adjust pricing when possible to further minimize foreign currency impacts. The percentage of our revenues generated in regions outside of the United States did not change substantially as a result of the EMC merger transaction.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In this management's discussion and analysis we use supplemental measures of our performance which are derived from our consolidated financial information but which are not presented in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP product net revenue; non-GAAP services net revenue; non-GAAP net revenue; non-GAAP product gross margin; non-GAAP services gross margin; non-GAAP gross margin; non-GAAP operating expenses; non-GAAP operating income; non-GAAP net income from continuing operations; non-GAAP earnings from continuing operations attributable to Dell Technologies Inc. per share - diluted; earnings before interest and other, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization, referred to as EBITDA; and adjusted EBITDA.
 
We use non-GAAP financial measures to supplement financial information presented on a GAAP basis. We believe that excluding certain items from our GAAP results allows management to better understand our consolidated financial performance from period to period and better project our future consolidated financial performance as forecasts are developed at a level of detail different from that used to prepare GAAP-based financial measures. Moreover, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures will provide our stakeholders with useful information to help them evaluate our operating results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and enabling them to make more meaningful period to period comparisons.

In particular, we have excluded the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to the going-private transaction. The going-private transaction was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations. This guidance prescribes that the purchase price be allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value of such assets and liabilities on the date of the transaction. All of our assets and liabilities were accounted for and recognized at fair value as of the transaction date, and the fair value adjustments are being amortized over the estimated useful lives in the periods following the transaction, while the ongoing business and operations did not change. As a result, we believe that excluding these adjustments provides results that are useful in understanding our operating performance, and aligns with how we manage our business. Excluding these adjustments also provides for more comparable operating results over the periods presented.

There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this report. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Non-GAAP product net revenue, non-GAAP services net revenue, non-GAAP net revenue, non-GAAP product gross margin, non-GAAP services gross margin, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, and non-GAAP net income from continuing operations, and non-GAAP earnings from continuing operations attributable to Dell Technologies Inc. per share, as defined by us, exclude the following items: the impact of purchase accounting, amortization of intangible assets, transaction-related expenses, other corporate expenses and, for non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP earnings from continuing operations attributable to Dell Technologies Inc. per share, an aggregate adjustment for income taxes. As the excluded items have a material impact on our financial results, our management compensates for this limitation by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures supplementally or for projections when comparable GAAP financial measures are not available. The non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of performance in isolation from or as a substitute for net revenue, gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, or net income prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis.

Reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure are presented below. We encourage you to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures for each of the periods presented. See the discussion below for more information on each of the excluded items as well as our reasons for excluding them from our non-GAAP results. In future fiscal periods, we may exclude such items and may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items. Accordingly, the exclusion of these items and other similar items in our non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent, or unusual.

The following is a summary of the items excluded from the most comparable GAAP financial measures to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures:

Impact of Purchase Accounting The impact of purchase accounting includes purchase accounting adjustments, related to the EMC merger transaction and the acquisition of Dell Inc. by Dell Technologies Inc. on October 29, 2013, referred to as the going-private transaction, recorded under the acquisition method of accounting relatedin accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations. This guidance prescribes that the purchase price be allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value of such assets and liabilities on the date of the transaction. Accordingly, all of the assets and liabilities acquired in the EMC merger transaction and the going-private transaction. Purchase accounting adjustments primarily includetransaction were accounted for and recognized at fair value as of the respective transaction dates, and the fair value adjustments madeare being amortized over the estimated useful lives in the periods following the transactions. The fair value adjustments primarily relate to deferred revenue, inventory, and property, plant, and equipment whichequipment. The purchase accounting adjustments and related amortization of those adjustments are recorded over time.reflected in our GAAP results; however, we evaluate the operating results of the underlying businesses on a non-GAAP basis, after removing such adjustments. We exclude these charges for purposesbelieve that excluding the impact of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented below to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation ofpurchase accounting provides results that are useful in understanding our current operating performance and provides more meaningful comparisons to our past operating performance.

Amortization of Intangible Assets Amortization of intangible assets primarily consists of amortization of customer relationships, developed technology, and trade names. In connection with the EMC merger transaction and the going-private transaction, all of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of EMC and Dell, Technologiesrespectively, were accounted for and recognized at fair value on the transaction date.dates. Accordingly, for the periods presented, amortization of intangible assets represents amortization associated with intangible assets recognized in connection with the EMC merger transaction and the going-private transaction. Amortization charges for purchased intangible assets are significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of our acquisitions, and these charges may vary in amount from period to period. We exclude these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented below to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance.

Transaction-related ExpensesTransaction-related expenses consist of acquisition, integration, and divestiture related costs, and are expensed as incurred. These expenses primarily represent costs for legal, banking, consulting, and advisory services, as well as certain compensatory retention awards directly related to the EMC merger transaction and related integration.

Other Corporate Expenses — Other corporate expenses consists of severance, facility action costs, and stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards. Severance costs are primarily related to severance and benefits for employees terminated pursuant to cost savings initiatives. Facility action costs included in the following items:

Severance and facility action costs primarily related to severance and benefits for employees terminated pursuant to cost savings initiatives.
Acquisition, integration, and divestiture related charges which are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of consulting and advisory services and retention payments. During the second quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2017, these charges include $72 million and $128 million, respectively, of operating expenses related to the pending EMC merger.
Stock-based compensation expense associated with equity awards.

first three months of Fiscal 2018 were $79 million, and we expect to incur these costs over the next nine months as we continue to integrate owned and leased facilities and as we seek opportunities for operational efficiencies and cost savings. Other corporate expenses vary from period to period and are significantly impacted by the timing and nature of these events. Therefore, although we may incur these types of expenses in the future, we believe that eliminating these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures presented below facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance.

Aggregate Adjustment for Income Taxes — The aggregate adjustment for income taxes is the estimated combined income tax effect for the adjustments mentioneddescribed above. During the secondfirst quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2017, this amountcategory also includes tax charges of approximately $66$135 million and $201 million, respectively, on previously untaxed earnings of a foreign subsidiary that will no longer be permanently reinvested as a result of the Dell Services and DSG divestitures.divestiture. The tax effects are determined based on the tax jurisdictions where the above items were incurred.

Non-GAAP Adjustments Per Share — This financial measure shows the cumulative impact of the above adjustments on earnings per share - diluted.

In addition to the above measures, we also use EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to provide additional information for evaluation of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes purchase accounting adjustments related to the EMC merger transaction and the going-private transaction, acquisition, integration, and divestiture-related costs, severance and facility actions, acquisition, integration, and divestiture related costs, and stock-based compensation expense. We believe that, due to the non-operational nature of the purchase accounting entries, it is appropriate to exclude these adjustments. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide more comparability between our historical results prior to the completion of the going-private transaction and historical results that reflect our capital structure upon the completion of the going-private transaction.

As is the case with the non-GAAP measures presented above, users should consider the limitations of using EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, including the fact that those measures do not provide a complete measure of our operating performance. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not purport to be alternatives to net income (loss) as measures of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In particular, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for management’smanagement's discretionary use, as these measures do not consider certain cash requirements, such as working capital needs, capital expenditures, contractual commitments, interest payments, tax payments, and other debt service requirements.

Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful in highlighting trends because they exclude the results

reasons for including these measures, material limitations with respect to the usefulness of the measures, and a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

As a result of the EMC merger transaction completed on September 7, 2016 and its impact on the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, our results for the fiscal periods discussed below are not directly comparable.

Overview

During the secondfirst quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2017,2018, our net revenue and non-GAAP net revenue were relatively unchanged. Client Solutionsincreased 46% and 48%, respectively. The increase in net revenue and non-GAAP net revenue was primarily attributable to revenue from the EMC acquired businesses and, to a lesser extent, an increase in revenue from CSG. The EMC merger transaction had an impact on the mix of revenue contributed by our business units.

Vendor Programs and Settlements

Our gross margin is affected by our ability to achieve competitive pricing with our vendors and contract manufacturers, including through our negotiation of a variety of vendor rebate programs to achieve lower net costs for the various components we include in our products. Under these programs, vendors provide us with rebates or other discounts from the list prices for the components, which are generally elements of their pricing strategy. We account for vendor rebates and other discounts as a

reduction in cost of net revenue. We manage our costs on a total net cost basis, which includes supplier list prices reduced by vendor rebates and other discounts.

The terms and conditions of our vendor rebate programs are largely based on product volumes and are generally negotiated either at the beginning of the annual or quarterly period, depending on the program. The timing and amount of vendor rebates and other discounts we receive under the programs may vary from period to period, reflecting changes in the competitive environment. We monitor our component costs and seek to address the effects of any changes to terms that might arise under our vendor rebate programs. Our gross margins for the second quarter and first six monthsquarters of Fiscal 20172018 and Fiscal 20162017 were not materially affected by any changes to the terms of our vendor rebate programs, as the amounts we received under these programs were generally stable relative to our total net cost. We are not aware of any significant programmatic changes to vendor pricing or rebate programs that may impact our results in the near term.

During the secondfirst quarter of Fiscal 2017,2018, changes in interest and other, net were unfavorable by $127 million,$0.4 billion, primarily due to an increase in interest expense from higher average debt balances from debt issued in connection with the pending EMC merger transaction. The increase in interest expense was partially offset by a decrease in foreign exchange losses attributable to a decrease in trading costs and certain revaluations of un-hedged foreign currencies. Other expenses included the recognition of a benefit of approximately $5 million representing the fair value adjustment on the common stock purchase agreement with Temasek entered into in connection with the pending EMC merger transaction. See Note 37 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for further information regarding the common stock purchase agreement.

During the first six months of Fiscal 2017, changes in interest and other, net were unfavorable by $171 million when compared to the same period in Fiscal 2016.

The income tax rate for future quarters of Fiscal 20172018 will be impacted by the actual mix of jurisdictions in which income is generated.

Our effective tax rate can fluctuate depending on the geographic distribution of our world-wide earnings, as our foreign earnings are generally taxed at lower rates than in the United States. In certain jurisdictions, our tax rate is significantly less than the applicable statutory rate as a result of tax holidays. The majority of our foreign income that is subject to these tax holidays and lower tax rates is attributable to Singapore, China, and Malaysia. A significant portion of these income tax benefits is relatedrelate to a tax holiday that will expire on December 31, 2016. We have negotiated new terms for the affected subsidiary, which provides for a reduced income tax rate and will be effective for a two-year bridge period expiringexpires in January 2019. Our other tax holidays will expire in whole or in part during Fiscal 2019 through Fiscal 2023. Many of these tax holidays and reduced tax rates may be extended when certain conditions are met or may be terminated early if certain conditions are not met. The differences between our effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% principally resulted from the geographical distribution of taxable income discussed above and permanent differences between the book and tax treatment of certain items.  We continue to assess our business model and its impact in various taxing jurisdictions.

Net RevenueDuring the second quarter of Fiscal 2017, Client Solutions net revenue was relatively unchanged as the decrease in commercial net revenue was offset by the increase in consumer net revenue. The decrease in commercial net revenue was primarily attributable to a decline in demand for desktops and an overall decrease in average selling prices. The increase in consumer net revenue was driven by an increase in notebook units sold, partially offset by an overall decrease in average selling prices. Both commercial and consumer experienced an overall decline in average selling prices as we strategically managed our pricing position given the favorable cost environment.

From a geographical perspective, net revenue attributable to Client Solutions decreased in EMEA and APJ during the second quarter of Fiscal 2017, mostly offset by an increase in net revenue in the Americas.

During the first six months of Fiscal 2017, Client Solutions net revenue decreased 2%. The decrease in commercial net revenue was partially offset by the increase in consumer. The decrease in commercial net revenue was attributable to an overall decrease in average selling prices, while demand was relatively unchanged. The increase in consumer net revenue was primarily driven by an increase in notebook units sold, partially offset by an overall decrease in average selling prices. Both commercial and consumer experienced an overall decline in average selling prices as we strategically managed our pricing position given the favorable cost environment.

Net Revenue During the secondfirst quarter of Fiscal 2017, ESG2018, CSG net revenue increased 6% driven by an increase in both commercial and consumer net revenue. The increase in CSG net revenue was relatively unchanged as theprimarily driven by an increase in units sold as we benefited from a general improvement in customer demand, which favored premium notebooks and workstations over desktops. Despite an increase in sales of our premium offerings, overall average selling prices were relatively flat over the period as we strategically managed our pricing position.

From a geographical perspective, net revenue attributable to CSG increased in APJ and the Americas during the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, while net revenue in EMEA was relatively unchanged.

Operating Income During the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, CSG operating income as a percentage of net revenue decreased 40 basis points to 4.1%. This decrease was driven by an overall decline in our gross margin percentage due to increases in certain component costs that we were not able to fully offset through pricing. This decline in gross margin was partially offset by a reduction in operating expenses as we managed our cost position. We expect that component cost increases will continue to be challenging over the next few quarters.

Net RevenueDuring the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, ISG net revenue increased approximately $3.3 billion, or 91%, primarily due to incremental net revenue associated with the EMC acquired storage business, which caused storage revenue to increase approximately $3.1 billion, or 585%. Revenue from servers and networking was mostly offset by a decrease in net revenuealso increased 5% over the period, primarily resulting from storage. The increase in revenue from servers and networking was attributable to an increase in revenue from the sale of cloud servers and other cloud products, which was mostly offset by a decline in net revenue from PowerEdge servers due to lower volume. The impact of lower volume of PowerEdge sales was partially mitigated by an increase inunits, while average selling prices due to a shift to products with richer configurations.

Accounts Receivable

We sell products and services directly to customers and through a variety of sales channels, including retail distribution. Our accounts receivable, net, was $5.3$8.8 billion and $4.8$9.4 billion as of July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016,February 3, 2017, respectively. The decrease in accounts receivable, net was primarily driven by a sequential decline in net revenue in line with normal seasonality. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to cover receivables that may be deemed uncollectible. The allowance for losses is based on a provision for accounts that are collectively evaluated based on historical bad debt experience as well as specific identifiable customer accounts that are deemed at risk. As of July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016,February 3, 2017, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $39$64 million and $36$57 million, respectively. Based on our assessment, we believe that we are adequately reserved for expected credit losses. We monitor the aging of our accounts receivable and continue to take actions to reduce our exposure to credit losses.

Dell Financial Services and Financing Receivables

Dell Financial Services, referred to as DFS, offers a wide range of financial services, including originating, collecting, and servicing customer receivables primarily related to the purchase of Dell products. Following the closing of the EMC merger transaction, DFS began offering similar financial services related to the purchase of Dell EMC and VMware products. In some cases, we originate financing activities for our commercial customers related to the purchase of third-party technology products that complement our portfolio of products and services. New financing originations, which represent the amounts of financing provided by DFS to customers for equipment and related software and services, including third-party originations, were $1.0$1.1 billion and $0.8 billion for both the secondfirst quarter of Fiscal 2018 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2017, and Fiscal 2016, and $1.9 billion for both the first six monthsrespectively. As of FiscalMay 5, 2017 and Fiscal 2016. As of both July 29, 2016 and January 29, 2016,February 3, 2017, our financing receivables, net were $5.1 billion.$6.0 billion and $5.9 billion, respectively.

We have securitization programs to fund revolving loans and fixed-term leases and loans through consolidated special purpose entities, referred to as SPEs, which we account for as secured borrowings. We transfer certain U.S. and European customer financing receivables to these SPEs, whose purpose is to facilitate the funding of customer receivables through financing arrangements with multi-seller conduits that issue asset-backed debt securities in the capital markets and to private investors. During both the secondfirst quarters of Fiscal 20172018 and Fiscal 2016,2017, we transferred $0.8$0.9 billion and $0.6 billion to these SPEs, and during the first six months of Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2016, we transferred $1.4 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively. The structured financing debt related to all of our securitization programs included as secured borrowing was $2.9$3.5 billion and $2.8$3.1 billion as of July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016,February 3, 2017, respectively. In addition, the carrying amount of the corresponding financing receivables was $3.3$4.0 billion and $3.6 billion as of both July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016.February 3, 2017, respectively. As a result of the EMC merger transaction, we plan to expand our existing securitization programs to allow for additional funding of customer receivables in the capital markets.
We maintain an allowance to cover expected financing receivable credit losses and evaluate credit loss expectations based on our total portfolio. For the secondfirst quarter of Fiscal 20172018 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2016,2017, the principal charge-off rate for our total portfolio was 2.0%1.8% and 2.7%, respectively. For the first six months of Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2016, the principal charge-off rate for our total portfolio was 2.1% and 2.7%2.2%, respectively. The credit quality of our financing receivables has improved in recent years due to an overall improvement in the credit environment and as the mix of high-quality commercial accounts in our portfolio has increased. We expect that trend to continue with increased commercial customer volume resulting from the EMC merger transaction. The allowance for losses is determined based on various factors, including historical and anticipated experience, past due receivables, receivable type, and customer risk profile. At July 29, 2016May 5, 2017 and January 29, 2016,February 3, 2017, the allowance for financing receivable losses was $156$136 million and $176$143 million, respectively. In general, the loss rates on our financing receivables have improved over the periods presented.  We expect relatively stable loss rates in future periods, with movements in these rates being primarily driven by seasonality and a continued shift in portfolio composition to lower risk commercial assets. We continue to monitor broader economic indicators and their potential impact on future loss performance. We have an extensive process to manage our exposure to customer credit risk, including active management of credit lines and our collection activities. We also sell selected fixed-term financing receivables to unrelated third parties on a periodic basis, primarily to manage certain concentrations of customer credit exposure.  Based on our assessment of the customer financing receivables, we believe that we are adequately reserved.
See Note 46 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for additional information about our financing receivables and the associated allowance.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue is recorded when billings have been generated or payments have been received for undelivered products or services, or in situations where revenue recognition criteria have not been met. Deferred revenue represents amounts received in advance for extended warranty services, software maintenance, unearned license fees, and deferred profit on third-party software offerings. Deferred revenue is recognized on these items when the revenue recognition criteria are met, generally resulting in ratable recognition over the contract term. We also have deferred revenue related to undelivered hardware and professional services, consisting of installations and consulting engagements, which are recognized as our obligations under the contract are completed.

Our total deferred revenue was $18.7 billion as of both May 5, 2017 and February 3, 2017. A majority of our deferred revenue as of May 5, 2017 is expected to be recognized over the next two years.

MARKET CONDITIONS, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

Market Conditions

We regularly monitor economic conditions and associated impacts on the financial markets and our business. We consistently evaluate the financial health of our supplier base, carefully manage customer credit, diversify counterparty risk, and monitor the concentration risk of our cash and cash equivalents balances globally. We routinely monitor our financial exposure to borrowers and counterparties.

We monitor credit risk associated with our financial counterparties using various market credit risk indicators such as credit ratings issued by nationally recognized rating agencies and changes in market credit default swap levels. We perform periodic evaluations of our positions with these counterparties and may limit exposure to any one counterparty in accordance with our policies. We monitor and manage these activities depending on current and expected market developments.

We use derivative instruments to hedge certain foreign currency exposures. We use forward contracts and purchased options designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in our forecasted transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.  In addition, we primarily use forward contracts and may use purchased options to hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency.  See Note 68 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for more information about our use of derivative instruments.

We are exposed to interest rate risk related to our variable-rate debt and investment portfolio. In the normal course of business, we follow established policies and procedures to manage this risk, including monitoring of our asset and liability mix. As a result, we do not anticipate any material losses from interest rate risk.

The impact on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report of any credit adjustments related to our use of counterparties has been immaterial.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To support our ongoing business operations, we rely on operating cash flows as our primary source of liquidity. We monitor the efficiency of our balance sheet to ensure that we have adequate liquidity to support our strategic initiatives. In addition to internally generated cash, we have access to other capital sources to finance our strategic initiatives and fund growth in our financing operations, as evidenced by our actions to raise capital for the EMC merger transaction. We have undertaken strategic divestitures and intend to use the net proceeds from those divestitures to pay down the EMC merger financing.operations. As of July 29, 2016,May 5, 2017, we had $7.2$9.6 billion of total cash and cash equivalents, athe majority of which was held outside of the United States. Our strategy is to deploy capital from any potential source, whether internally generated cash or debt, depending on the adequacy and availability of that source of capital and whether it can be accessed in a cost-effective manner. We expect to make available at least $2.95 billion of cash on hand to be utilized to consummate the EMC merger, which may result in a need to repatriate cash from foreign jurisdictions. We do not expect to incur material tax or other costs as a result of any such repatriation.

A significant portion of our income is earned in non-U.S. jurisdictions. Under current law, earnings available to be repatriated to the United States would be subject to U.S. federal income tax, less applicable foreign tax credits. We have provided for the U.S. federal tax liability on these amounts for financial statement purposes, except for foreign earnings that are considered permanently reinvested outside of the United States. We utilize a variety of tax planning and financing strategies with the objective of having our worldwide cash available in the locations where it is needed.

To finance the going-privateEMC merger transaction, we issued $13.9an aggregate principal amount of $45.9 billion in new debt, which included borrowings under our Term Loan Facilities and the ABL Credit Facility, proceeds from the sale of Senior First Lien Notes and other notes, and borrowings under structured financing debt programs. See Note 1 and Note 5 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for more information on the going-private transaction and our outstanding borrowings.

During the first six months of Fiscal 2017, we repaid $0.6 billion of debt, which primarily consisted of $0.4 billion of maturing Unsecured Notes and Debentures and $0.2 billion of Term Loan facilities. Further, during June 2016, we issued $23.25 billion of debt in connection with the pending EMC merger transaction, which included proceeds from the sale of the First Lien Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes.

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, we refinanced the Term Loan B Facility to reduce the interest rate margin by 0.75% and Senior Unsecured Notes,to increase the outstanding principal amount by $0.5 billion. We applied the proceeds from the Term Loan B Facility refinancing to repay $0.5 billion principal amount of the Margin Bridge Facility. Additionally, during the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, we issued the Margin Loan Facility in the principal amount of $2.0 billion, and used the proceeds of the offerings were deposited into escrow, with such proceedsnew facility to be releasedextinguish the Margin Bridge Facility.

The net proceeds held in escrow from the private offerings of the First Lien Notesour financing receivables portfolio, and Senior Unsecured Notes were included in restricted cash in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of July 29, 2016, and such proceeds will be held as restricted cash until the completion of the EMC merger. The receipt of the net proceeds is not reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, given that the proceeds were required to be deposited directly into escrow rather than through the Company's unrestricted cash accounts.

Upon the close of the EMC merger, we intend to repayrepaid approximately $7.7$0.1 billion principal amount of existing Dell Technologies debt. Further, we intend to incur approximately $22.6 billion of incremental borrowings through new term loan facilities, a revolving credit facility, bridge facilities, and margin financing. Additionally, we will incur approximately $5.5 billion of incremental borrowings through existing EMC debt. We will maintain our securitization programs to fund revolving loans and fixed-term leases and loans through SPEs.

The improvement in operating2017. Operating cash flows during the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 were driven by profitability, primarily in VMware. The favorable impact of this profitability was primarily due to profitabilitypartially offset by increased compensation and favorable changes in working capital, particularly with respect to an increase in accounts payablebenefit expenses as a result of extending payment terms with certain suppliers. The terms of our supplier arrangements will continue to evolve as we close the EMC merger transaction and integrate the businesses.higher seasonal incentive bonus payments.

Net revenue, operating income, adjusted EBITDA, and cash flows from operations are discussed elsewhere in this report. Our cash conversion cycle for the periodsis presented using balances and results of operations which include Dell Services and Dell Software Group. We will continue to evaluate and present our cash conversion cycle inclusive of Dell Services and Dell Software Group until we complete the divestitures.below.

__________________
(a)Days of sales outstanding, referred to as DSO, calculates the average collection period of our receivables. DSO is based on the ending net trade receivables adjusted to include accounts receivable, net classified as held for sale, and the most recent quarterly non-GAAP net revenue adjusted to include discontinued operations, for each period. DSO also includes the effect of product costs related to customer shipments not yet recognized as revenue that are classified in other current assets.assets, as we believe this provides a more relevant metric that aligns with actual sales activity in the quarter, regardless of revenue recognition under GAAP. DSO is calculated by adding accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, and customer shipments in transit and dividing that sum by average non-GAAP net revenue per day for the current quarter (90 days for all fiscal quarters presented herein)the three months ended May 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016). At JulyAs of May 5, 2017, DSO and days of customer shipments not yet recognized were 44 and 4 days, respectively. As of April 29, 2016, DSO and days of customer shipments not yet recognized were 3836 and 4 days, respectively. At July 31, 2015, DSO and days of customer shipments not yet recognized were 39 and 45 days, respectively.
(b)Days of supply in inventory, referred to as DSI, measures the average number of days from procurement to sale of our products. DSI is based on ending inventory and most recent quarterly non-GAAP cost of goods sold adjusted to include discontinued operations, for each period. DSI is calculated by dividing ending inventory by average non-GAAP cost of goods sold per day for the current quarter (90 days for all fiscal quarters presented herein)the three months ended May 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016).
(c)Days in accounts payable, referred to as DPO, calculates the average number of days our payables remain outstanding before payment. DPO is based on ending accounts payable adjusted to include accounts payable classified as held for sale, and most recent quarterly non-GAAP cost of goods sold adjusted to include discontinued operations, for each period. DPO is calculated by dividing accounts payable by average non-GAAP cost of goods sold per day for the current quarter (90 days for all fiscal quarters presented herein)the three months ended May 5, 2017 and April 29, 2016).
(d)We calculate our cash conversion cycle using non-GAAP net revenue adjusted to include discontinued operations, and non-GAAP cost of goods sold adjusted to include discontinued operations, because we believe that excluding certain items from the GAAP results facilitates management's understanding of this key performance metric.

Capital Commitments

Capital Expenditures— During the first six monthsquarters of Fiscal 20172018 and Fiscal 2016,2017, we spent $235$245 million and $230$92 million, respectively, on property, plant, and equipment, which included $62 million and $56 million, respectively, attributable to discontinued operations.equipment. These expenditures were primarily incurred in connection with our global expansion efforts and infrastructure investments made to support future growth. Product demand, product mix, and the increased use of contract manufacturers, as well as ongoing investments in operating and information technology infrastructure, influence the level and prioritization of our capital expenditures. Aggregate capital expenditures for Fiscal 2017,2018, which will be primarily related to infrastructure investments and strategic initiatives, are currently expected to total approximately $0.5$1.3 billion.

Repurchases of Common Stock

Class V Common Stock Repurchases — On December 13, 2016, the board of directors approved a stock repurchase program under which we are authorized to use assets of the Class V Group to repurchase up to $500 million of shares of Class V Common Stock over a period of six months. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, we repurchased 1.3 million shares of Class V Common Stock for $82 million, and on February 13, 2017, the stock repurchase program was completed.

On March 27, 2017, the board of directors approved an amendment of the stock repurchase program which authorizes us to use assets of the Class V Group to repurchase up to an additional $300 million of shares of Class V Common Stock over a period of an additional six months. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, we repurchased 4.2 million shares of Class V Common Stock for $277 million under the extended stock repurchase program.

For more information regarding share repurchase programs, see Note 17 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report, and "Part II — Item 2 — Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds."

Purchase Obligations  Purchase obligations are defined as contractual obligations to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on us. These obligations specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Purchase obligations do not include contracts that may be canceled without penalty.

We utilize several suppliers to manufacture sub-assemblies for our products. Our efficient supply chain management allows us to enter into flexible and mutually beneficial purchase arrangements with our suppliers in order to minimize inventory risk. Consistent with industry practice, we acquire raw materials or other goods and services, including product components, by issuing to suppliers authorizations to purchase based on our projected demand and manufacturing needs. These purchase orders are typically fulfilled within 30 days and are entered into during the ordinary course of business in order to establish best pricing and continuity of supply for our production. Purchase orders are not included in the table above as they typically represent our authorization to purchase rather than binding purchase obligations.

As of May 5, 2017, we had $2.7 billion, $0.3 billion, and $0.4 billion in purchase obligations for Fiscal 2018, Fiscal 2019, and Fiscal 2020 and thereafter, respectively.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Dell Technologies is exposedFor quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting us, see "Part II — Item 7A — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2017. Our exposure to a variety ofmarket risks including foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and changeshas not changed materially from that set forth in the market value of investments. In the normal course of business, Dell Technologies employs established policies and procedures to manage these risks.
Foreign Currency Risk

During the second quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2017, the principal foreign currencies in which Dell Technologies transacted business were the Euro, Chinese Renminbi, Japanese Yen, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, and Australian Dollar. The objective of Dell Technologies in managing its exposures to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations is to reduce the impact of adverse fluctuations associated with foreign currency exchange rate changes on earnings and cash flows. Accordingly, Dell Technologies utilizes foreign currency option contracts and forward contracts to hedge its exposure on forecasted transactions and firm commitments for certain currencies. Dell Technologies monitors its foreign currency exchange exposures to ensure the overall effectiveness of its foreign currency hedge positions. However, there can be no assurance that the foreign currency hedging activities will continue to substantially offset the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates on the results of operations and financial position in the future.
As of July 29, 2016, based on the outstanding foreign currency hedge instruments of Dell Technologies, which include designated and non-designated instruments, there was a maximum potential one-day loss at a 95% confidence level in fair value of approximately $19 million using a Value-at-Risk, referred to as VAR, model. By using market implied rates and incorporating volatility and correlation among the currencies of a portfolio, the VAR model simulates 10,000 randomly generated market prices and calculates the difference between the fifth percentile and the average as the Value-at-Risk. The VAR model is a risk estimation tool and is not intended to represent actual losses in fair value that will be incurred. Additionally, as Dell Technologies utilizes foreign currency instruments for hedging forecasted and firmly committed transactions, a loss in fair value for those instruments is generally offset by increases in the value of the underlying exposure.
Interest Rate Risk

Dell Technologies is exposed to interest rate risk related to its debt and investment portfolios and financing receivables. Dell Technologies mitigates the risk related to its structured financing debt through the use of interest rate swaps to hedge the variability in cash flows related to the interest rate payments on such debt. Based on the variable rate debt portfolio outstanding as of July 29, 2016, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have resulted in an increase of approximately $58 million in annual interest expense.
Dell Technologies mitigates the risks related to its investment portfolio by investing primarily in high-quality credit securities, limiting the amount that can be invested in any single issuer and investing in short-to-intermediate-term investments. Due to the nature of our investment portfolio as of July 29, 2016, a 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would not have had a material impact on the fair value of this portfolio.Annual Report.
