PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 16, 2006 - HP today announced financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2006, with net revenue of
$21.9 billion, representing growth of 5% year-over-year, or 6% when adjusted for the effects of currency. GAAP operating profit was $1.5 billion and GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.48 per share, up from $0.03 in the prior year period. GAAP financial information for the third quarter 2005 reflects a tax adjustment resulting from HP's decision to repatriate $14.5 billion in cash from foreign earnings.

Non-GAAP operating profit was $1.7 billion, with non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.52, up from $0.36 in the prior year period. Non-GAAP financial information excludes $108 million of adjustments on an after-tax basis, or $0.04 per diluted share, related primarily to amortization of purchased intangibles. GAAP and non-GAAP financial information include stock-based compensation expense in the current financial period only.

"HP delivered another solid quarter with strong revenue growth, improved margins and healthy cash flow," said Mark Hurd, HP chief executive officer and president. "We gained share without sacrificing margins and continue to execute well against our long-term plan. This is visible in our third quarter results and improved fourth quarter outlook."
