On September 22, HP Inc. fell 5.07% in regular trading, trading at $32.655/share, with turnover of $392 million. The decline was triggered by HP's latest SEC filing in which the company explicitly stated it will not provide financial guidance for fiscal year 2027, while projecting a mid-single-digit percentage decline in global PC industry shipments in calendar year 2027 compared to 2026.

According to the filing, HP noted its planning assumptions are contingent on second-half market performance and acknowledged that current market conditions remain uncertain, leaving room for potential revisions. This disclosure compounds existing investor concerns following HP's Q3 earnings report in late August, where despite revenue growing approximately 13% year-over-year to $15.7 billion and full-year adjusted EPS guidance being raised to $3.19–$3.29, the PC division saw shipments decline 16% and personal systems operating margin compress to 4.6%. Management previously cited rising memory and storage costs as key margin headwinds, with the CFO projecting that input cost pressures would persist in the near term, particularly impacting the personal systems segment.

HP's refusal to issue forward guidance, paired with a weakening PC demand outlook, has amplified market skepticism about the company's ability to sustain revenue momentum beyond the current pricing-driven growth cycle.
