HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE COMPANY

DATE: September 22, 2025

/s/ David Antczak

Name:

David Antczak

Title:

Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary

The Company is also providing combined historical financial information of the Company (according to the aforementioned forthcoming organizational structure) and Juniper Networks, Inc. ("Juniper Networks"). Hewlett Packard Enterprise believes this provides a supplemental view to help better understand the Company and its networking business. The Company is releasing such retrospective information for the three completed fiscal quarters of 2025 and the quarterly and full year fiscal 2024 financial results, which are included in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto under the header “Combined Company Financial Information” and are incorporated herein by reference.

The summary combined company financial information includes certain combined company financial information that is based on historical financial information reported by HPE and Juniper Networks. This combined company financial information represents the summation of the standalone financial information reported by HPE and the standalone financial information reported by Juniper Networks. This combined company financial information has not been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and does not give effect to the pro forma adjustments that might be required in connection with the preparation of pro forma financial information in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, and is not indicative of what the combined company’s performance would have been had HPE and Juniper Networks been a combined company for the periods presented. As a result, the combined company financial information could materially differ from financial information determined in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. HPE and Juniper Networks have different fiscal years: HPE’s fiscal year ends on October 31, and Juniper Networks’ fiscal year ended on December 31. This combined company financial information is based on available quarterly financial information of HPE and Juniper Networks according to their respective quarterly periods, and no calculations or adjustments have been performed to reconcile the differences in the differing quarterly reporting periods. In addition, the combined company financial information

does not reflect future changes or future events resulting from the Juniper Networks acquisition that may occur, including restructuring activities or other costs related to the integration of the HPE and Juniper Networks businesses, and does not consider potential impacts of current market conditions on revenues, expense efficiencies or asset dispositions.

As a result, investors should not place any undue reliance on the combined company financial information. The combined company financial information is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually occurred had the Juniper Networks acquisition been completed as of the dates indicated, nor is such combined company financial information indicative of the future operating results or financial position of the combined company.


Item 7.01			Regulation FD Disclosure.

The information contained in this Item 7.01 and in the accompanying Exhibit 99.2 shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Securities Analyst Meeting Press Release

On October 15, 2025, HPE issued a press release entitled “HPE details strategic and execution priorities to drive enhanced shareholder value at HPE Securities Analyst Meeting 2025” regarding its 2025 Securities Analyst Meeting, during which Hewlett Packard Enterprise provided a strategy update and financial outlook, including for its 2026 fiscal year. A copy of this press release regarding HPE's 2025 Securities Analyst Meeting is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Share Repurchase Authorization Increase

On October 15, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved an increase of $3 billion in the amount authorized under the Company’s share repurchase program. The program does not have an expiration date.

Juniper Integration Synergies Update

On October 15, 2025, at its 2025 Securities Analyst Meeting, HPE provided updates on actions planned and underway to integrate Juniper Networks. Such actions include, among other measures, making reductions to the total workforce of the combined company, a majority of which to occur during year 1 post-acquisition close, with additional reductions extending into years 2 and 3 post-acquisition close. The Company estimates such workforce reductions will cost approximately $240 million.
