Risk Factors

  • Rising commodity costs and currency headwinds could pressure margins in H2 despite raised guidance.
  • Restructuring charges $365M in Q2 vs $122M year ago; elevated restructuring costs could weigh on GAAP earnings.
  • Consumer PS units down 8% and Printing hardware units down 7% signal soft demand in some end markets.
