HPE stock holds near USD 60.74 after AI guidance lift

Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. (US42824C1099) closed at USD 60.74 on September 18, 2026, down 0.5 percent from the prior session, while a recent market note put the shares at USD 60.89 and the market value at USD 80.66 billion.

Guidance now does more work

According to Zacks on September 21, 2026, HPE raised its fiscal 2026 revenue growth outlook to 34 percent to 37 percent and lifted non-GAAP EPS guidance to USD 3.75 to USD 3.85. The same report said HPE expects free cash flow of at least USD 5 billion and a non-GAAP operating margin of 14 percent to 15 percent.

That gives investors a tighter frame for the current re-rating. In the same update, HPE also pointed to Networking revenue growth of 14 percent to 17 percent and Cloud and AI growth of 14 percent to 18 percent for fiscal 2026.

Q2 still sets the base

According to TradingView on September 21, 2026, Hewlett Packard Enterprise reported Q2 revenue of USD 12.2 billion and EPS of USD 1.11. The same recap said fiscal 2027 revenue growth was raised to 13 percent to 17 percent and long-term free cash flow was set above USD 5 billion.

For the stock, the comparison matters more than the label. The jump from Q2 revenue of USD 12.2 billion to fourth-quarter guidance of USD 13.9 billion to USD 14.8 billion signals a stronger back half than the last reported quarter.
