HP sinks 15% as company misses on earnings, guidance due to ‘added cost’ from tariffs
- HP Inc. Reported second-quarter 2025 results on May 7, showing revenue growth but missing earnings expectations in its fiscal quarter ending April 30.
- The company has retracted its financial forecast for 2025, citing uncertain macroeconomic conditions primarily driven by U.S. Import tariffs on Chinese goods and evolving trade policies.
- HP's net income fell to $406 million with adjusted EPS at 71 cents, below analyst estimates, while revenue increased 3.3% to $13.22 billion, driven by Personal Systems growth and offset by printing declines.
- HP CEO Enrique Lores noted that the company has ramped up manufacturing across several countries, including Southeast Asia, India, Mexico, and the United States, aiming for almost all products sold in North America to be manufactured outside China by the end of June to lessen the impact of tariffs.
- HP’s shares dropped 15% after the report, reflecting investor disappointment over earnings misses and cautious guidance, though the company expects to fully offset trade-related costs by Q4 2025.
