40 paragraphs in Risk Factors of the 10-K filed Dec 18, 2025 with nothing like them in the 10-K filed Dec 19, 2024. Quoted exactly. Paragraphs that were only edited are under 10-K change.

Compared with the Risk Factors in the latest 10-K of the other 74 Technology companies: a paragraph with at least half its words the same at another company is called similar, and the companies are listed under it. A paragraph most of them have is marked boilerplate. No line means no other company has one like it. This counts text; it does not say how serious a risk is.

To successfully execute our strategy in a rapidly evolving market, we must maintain effective planning, forecasting, and management processes to enable us to continue to improve cost structures, align sales coverage with strategic goals, improve channel execution, and strengthen our capabilities in our areas of strategic focus, while continuing to pursue new product innovation in areas such as edge computing, hybrid cloud, AI, high performance computing, and networking. We must also make sufficient long-term investments in strategic growth areas to develop, obtain, and protect our intellectual property, and commit to transition significant research and development (“R&D”) and other resources before knowing whether our projections will align with customer demand for our solutions.

•Supply Chain Disruption. Any disruptions to our supply chain, significant increase in component costs or logistics costs, or shortages of critical components, could decrease our sales, earnings, and liquidity or otherwise adversely affect our business and result in increased costs. Disruptions could occur as a result of any number of events, including, but not limited to: an extended closure of, or any slowdown at our suppliers' plants or shipping delays; market shortages due to the surge in demand from other purchasers for critical components; increases in prices (including fuel prices and increases in prices due to inflation); the imposition of regulations, quotas, embargoes, or tariffs on components; labor stoppages; transportation delays, including due to labor strikes; third-party interference in the integrity of the products sourced through the supply chain; cyberattacks; the unavailability of raw materials; severe weather conditions and adverse effects of climate change, or natural disasters; geopolitical developments, war or terrorism; and disruptions in utilities and other services, some of which we have experienced. In addition, the development, licensing, or acquisition of new products in the future may increase the complexity of supply chain management. Failure to effectively manage the supply of components and products would adversely affect our business. Our ongoing efforts to geographically diversify and optimize the efficiency of our supply chain could cause supply disruptions and be more expensive, time-consuming, and resource-intensive than expected, and such impacts may be more pronounced as a result of increased tariffs between the U.S. and its trading partners. In this environment of heightened trade restrictions, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, cost increases from certain of our suppliers that result in price increases for some of our offerings and could subsequently limit demand for such offerings. If we are unable to pass on all or some of such cost increases to our customers, such increased prices may reduce our current margins and future margins. Furthermore, certain of our suppliers have discontinued conducting business with us or failed to perform under their contracts with us.

•Alternative Sources of Supply. The development of alternate sources for components is time-consuming, complex, and costly. For some components, such as customized components, alternative sources may not exist, we may not be able to locate alternative sources in a timely manner, or we may be unable to secure quantities of those components necessary to satisfy our production requirements. As a result, if an existing source of supply is unable to provide components in quantities sufficient to meet our requirements on a timely basis, we may not be able to deliver, or be delayed in delivering, products and services to our customers, which may affect present and future sales. If we are unable to buy components in quantities sufficient to meet our requirements on a timely basis, we will not be able to deliver products and services to our customers, which would seriously affect present and future sales, and would, in turn, adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In the ordinary course of business, we store sensitive data, including intellectual property, personal data, our proprietary business information and that of our employees, contractors, customers, vendors, partners, suppliers, and other third parties with whom we do business. In addition, we store sensitive data through cloud-based services that may be hosted by third parties and in data center infrastructure maintained by third parties. We have been, and expect to be, subject to cyberattacks and other attempted intrusions into our networks and systems by a wide range of actors, including, but not limited to, nation state actors, criminal enterprises, terrorist organizations, and other organizations or individuals, as well as errors, wrongful conduct or malfeasance by employees and third-party service providers, (collectively, “malicious parties”) who have at times been able to circumvent or bypass our cyber security measures. Geopolitical tensions or conflicts may also heighten the risk of such cyberattacks or exacerbate system vulnerabilities, considering our continued hybrid work environment and our globally dispersed operations, employees, contractors, suppliers, developers, partners, and other third parties.

Read in the 10-K ↗

Additional impacts from cybersecurity incidents have included and could include reimbursement of remediation costs to our customers, suppliers, or distributors; lost revenue resulting from the unauthorized use of proprietary information or the failure to retain or attract business partners following an incident; increased insurance premiums; and damage to our competitiveness, reputation, stock price, and long-term shareholder value. To the extent we carry insurance coverage for such possibilities, we cannot be certain that any such coverage will be adequate or otherwise protect us with respect to claims, expenses, fines, penalties, business loss, data loss, litigation, regulatory actions, or other impacts arising from security breaches or incidents, or that such coverage will continue to be available on acceptable terms or at all.

Similar paragraph at 1 of 74 other Technology companies: MU

The cybersecurity threat landscape is rapidly evolving and becoming increasingly sophisticated, and there can be no assurance that our controls and procedures will be sufficient to address future threats or remediate future incidents. Further, there has been an increase in the frequency and sophistication of attacks, and we expect these activities to continue to increase, including malicious actors potentially leveraging AI to develop malicious code or sophisticated phishing attempts. It is possible that such incidents may embolden other malicious actors to perpetrate future attacks that may result in material misappropriation, system disruptions or shutdowns, malicious alteration, or destruction of our confidential or personal information or that of third parties. Additionally, the proliferation of generative AI models within the internal systems, processes, and tools of HPE, our suppliers, our customers, or other third parties with whom we do business may create new attack methods for threat actors. The emergence of deepfakes and advanced social engineering tactics presents new challenges in preventing deception and unauthorized access, underscoring the importance of advanced verification and detection mechanisms. Zero-day vulnerabilities may include newly discovered security flaws in software that are exploited before patches are released, requiring proactive monitoring and immediate remediation efforts. Quantum computing may in the future present a risk to our business by potentially breaking traditional cryptographic methods on which we rely, thereby necessitating the shift to quantum-resistant encryption techniques.

Malicious parties may also be able to otherwise develop and deploy viruses, worms, ransomware, and other malicious software programs that attack our products or otherwise exploit any security vulnerabilities of our products, including within our cloud-based environments and offerings, such that we may be unable to anticipate such malicious parties’ techniques, implement adequate preventative measures, or remediate any intrusion on a timely or effective basis even if our security measures are appropriate, reasonable, and comply with applicable legal requirements. Advanced persistent threats can include

highly sophisticated intrusions by threat actors aiming to establish prolonged access within our network. Such intrusions have in the past gone, and could in the future go, undetected in our environments for a period of time, and we may discover additional impacts of earlier incidents that we believe were remediated. Given resource limitations, operational constraints, and our broad and diverse network environment, when vulnerabilities are discovered, we evaluate the risk, prioritize our responses, apply patches or take other remediation actions and notify customers, business partners, and suppliers, as appropriate. Exploitation of vulnerabilities and critical security defects have occurred and may occur in the future if we fail to patch certain security vulnerabilities in time to prevent successful disruptions of our infrastructure or exposure of information, or the failure of third-party providers to remedy vulnerabilities or security defects, or customers not deploying security releases or deciding not to upgrade products, services or solutions, could, in each case, result in claims of liability against us, damage our reputation or otherwise harm our business.

Read in the 10-K ↗

Our suppliers, vendors, partners, and other third parties with whom we do business also face similar cybersecurity threats, risks, and concerns as those set forth above, which introduces vulnerabilities to our business and operations, including our manufacturing supply chain. Although HPE requires strict cybersecurity and data controls through its contractual agreements with third parties, if these third parties do not have adequate safeguards or their safeguards fail, it may result in breaches of their systems, networks, or applications, potentially leading to breaches of our networks and systems or unauthorized access to or disclosure of our and/or our customers' confidential data, thereby compromising us and our customers. While HPE relies on independent audit reports, in addition to our own security assessments and diligence of third parties with whom we do business as part of our third-party risk management practices, these efforts may not detect or identify all cybersecurity risks or vulnerabilities.

Uncertainty and fluctuations in geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions may adversely impact our business, financial condition, and operating results.

Similar paragraph at 7 of 74 other Technology companies: ADSK, AMD, GDDY, KEYS, MCHP, SNPS, WDAY

Our business, financial condition, and operating results depend significantly on general macroeconomic conditions and the demand for our solutions and offerings. Economic weakness or uncertainty has contributed, and may contribute, to customer financial difficulties, thereby constraining customer spending on IT projects or upgrades, including through reduced, postponed, or cancelled orders. Such dynamics have resulted in, and may result in, decreased revenue and earnings. These factors could

Read in the 10-K ↗

require substantial expenditures and recovery time in order to fully resume operations. To the extent such disruptions adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and stock price, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this Item 1A of Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Similar paragraph at 2 of 74 other Technology companies: GEN, WDAY

Long sales and implementation cycles for our offerings and dynamics related to large orders may cause our revenues and operating results to vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter.

We have experienced, and may continue experiencing, lengthy sales cycles because our customers' decisions to purchase certain of our products, particularly new products, involve a significant commitment of their resources and a lengthy evaluation and product qualification process. Customers design and implement large IT deployments following lengthy procurement processes, which may impact expected future orders. Following a purchase, customers may also deploy our products and offerings slowly and deliberately. Furthermore, larger orders, including some orders for our AI systems, have typically required, and may continue to require, greater commitments of working capital, such as for purchases of key components, which could introduce variability in our quarterly cash flow and results of operations more generally. While we have seen the customer base for our AI systems offerings expand and expect it to continue expanding, our AI solutions have historically been purchased primarily by a small number of larger customers and cloud service providers. Sales of AI systems to such customers have caused, and may continue to cause, fluctuations in our results of operations, as such large orders may occur in some periods and not others and are generally subject to intense competition and pricing pressure, which can have an impact on our margins and results of operations. If we are not successful in continuing to expand sales to a broader base of customers, our financial results may be adversely affected. These sales and similar implementation cycle-related factors, including our expectation that customers may place large orders with the potential for widely varying implementation timelines, may cause our revenues and operating results to vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter.

We may not achieve some or all of the expected benefits of our cost reduction actions, some or all of which may be disruptive to our business.

Similar paragraph at 3 of 74 other Technology companies: ADSK, HPQ, Q

We have announced a cost reduction program and a series of other cost-saving initiatives as part of our ongoing efforts to reduce structural operating costs, streamline how we operate and do business, and continue advancing the Company's ongoing commitment to profitable growth (which we are calling Catalyst). We may not be able to obtain the cost savings and benefits that are initially anticipated in connection with such actions. Additionally, as a result of these initiatives and the actions contemplated thereby, we may experience a loss of continuity, loss of accumulated knowledge and/or inefficiency during transitional periods. Implementing and overseeing such actions can require a significant amount of management and other employees' time and focus, which may divert attention from operating and growing our business. If we fail to achieve some or all of the expected benefits of these measures, it could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We rely on the performance of our business systems and processes, as well as those of third-parties with whom we do business.

Read in the 10-K ↗

Additionally, some of our business processes depend upon the IT systems and processes of third parties, and the interfaces between those and our IT systems, as well as hosted SaaS applications from third parties. For example, we receive a broad range of information technology services, such as applications, including support, development and maintenance; infrastructure management and support, including for server storage and network devices; and end user support. Some of these services are provided to us through cloud providers, third party providers, and off-site facilities that may be vulnerable to damage or interruption, including performance problems from earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunications failures, equipment failures, adverse events caused by operator error, cybersecurity attacks, pandemics, and similar events. In addition, because we lease certain off-site data center facilities, we cannot be assured that we will be able to

expand our data center infrastructure to meet user demand in a timely manner, or on favorable financial terms. If we have issues receiving and processing data, this may delay our ability to provide products and services to our customers and business partners and damage our business. We also rely upon the performance of the systems and processes of our contract manufacturers to build and ship our products. If those systems and processes experience interruption or delay, the manufacture and shipment of our products in a timely manner may be impaired. Since IT is critical to our operations, in addition to the risks outlined above, problems with any of the third parties we rely on for our IT systems and services could result in liabilities to our customers and business partners, lower revenue and unexecuted efficiencies, and impact our results of operations and our stock price. We could also face significant additional costs or business disruption if our arrangements with these third parties are terminated or impaired and we cannot find alternative services or support on commercially reasonable terms or on a timely basis or if we are unable to hire new employees in order to provide these services in-house.

Evolving stakeholder expectations and our efforts and ability to manage these issues present numerous operational, regulatory, reputational, financial, legal, and other risks, any of which may be outside of our control or could have adverse impacts on our business, including on our stock price. Regulators and stakeholders have evolving, varied, and sometimes conflicting expectations regarding sustainability and corporate responsibility matters, leading to heightened scrutiny of such corporate programs a. Additionally, there is an increasing number of federal, state, and local initiatives that may conflict with other regulatory requirements or priorities, such as those of the U.S. federal government, resulting in regulatory uncertainty. We may also increasingly see similar conflict between U.S. policy and the regulatory positions taken in other non-U.S. jurisdictions. Not only is there uncertainty due to the patchwork of environmental, social, and governance-related laws and regulations (especially as they may sometimes conflict), but also there remains uncertainty around the accounting standards and

required disclosures associated with such laws and regulations (including the scope of reporting requirements and the related costs to comply with the emerging regulations).

We periodically evaluate goodwill and intangible assets to determine whether all or a portion of their carrying values may be impaired, in which case an impairment charge may be necessary. The value of goodwill may be materially and adversely affected if businesses that we acquire perform in a manner that is inconsistent with our assumptions at the time of acquisition. In addition, from time to time, we divest businesses, and any such divestiture could result in significant asset impairment and disposition charges, including those related to goodwill and intangible assets. During fiscal 2025, we recognized an impairment charge of $1.6 billion (which includes the $1.4 billion impairment charge disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the fiscal period ended April 30, 2025) for goodwill related to the Hybrid Cloud reporting unit, which was predominantly driven by an increase in the discount rate used in the analysis, as well as a strategic shift away from Non-IP storage business. Any future evaluations resulting in an impairment of goodwill or intangible assets could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition in the period in which the impairment is recognized.

Unfavorable results of legal proceedings, investigations, and other disputes could harm our business and result in substantial costs.

Similar paragraph at 2 of 74 other Technology companies: CIEN, DELL

We are involved in various claims, suits, investigations, and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business or otherwise. Additional legal claims or regulatory matters affecting us and our subsidiaries may arise in the future and could involve stockholder, consumer, regulatory, compliance, intellectual property, antitrust, tax, trade, privacy, employment, warranty or product claims, and other issues on a global basis. In addition, we have received inquiries, and may be subject to demands, claims, lawsuits, regulatory investigations, and additional inquiries (including those from U.S. or foreign governmental authorities). Litigation is inherently unpredictable. Regardless of the merits of a claim, the expense of initiating and defending, and in some cases entering into settlements of claims, such litigation and investigations may be costly, and may cause us to suffer reputational harm, divert management’s attention from day-to-day operations of our business, and may require us to implement certain remedial measures that could disrupt our business, operations, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. In addition, if we fail to comply with the terms of any settlement agreement, we could face more substantial penalties. An unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. Even if we are not named a party to a particular suit, we may be subject to indemnification obligations to the named parties, including our directors and executive officers as well as other third parties, that could subject us to liability for damages or other amounts payable as a result of such judgments or settlements.

The current U.S. administration has issued executive orders and taken actions to curtail certain policies and programs that violate federal anti-discrimination laws, including requiring U.S. federal contractors and subcontractors to certify that they do not operate any such programs. A violation of these orders or similar federal or state orders, laws or regulations or becoming subject to adverse actions could expose us to penalties and sanctions or jeopardize our ability to continue to do work for the U.S. federal government, which may adversely affect our future results of operations. An allegation of a violation could result in reputational harm and subject us to increased litigation risk. Additionally, conflicting laws and regulations between federal, state and local governments may make it increasingly difficult for us to do business in every government jurisdiction.

Further, some government customers have implemented and could continue to implement procurement policies that impact our profitability. Procurement policies favoring more non-commercial purchases, different pricing, or evaluation criteria or government contract negotiation offers based upon the customer’s view of what our pricing should be, could affect the margins on such contracts or make it more difficult to compete on certain types of programs. Government customers are continually evaluating their contract pricing and financing practices, and we have no assurance regarding what changes will be proposed, if any, and their impact on our financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.
