ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Hewlett-Packard Company was incorporated in 1947 under the laws of the State of California as the successor to a partnership founded in 1939 by William R. Hewlett and David Packard.
Hewlett-Packard Company, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company"), is engaged worldwide in the design, manufacture and service of electronic equipment and systems for measurement, computation and communications. The Company offers a wide variety of systems and standalone products, including electronic test equipment, computer systems and peripheral products, medical electronic equipment, calculators and other personal information products, solid state components and instrumentation for chemical analysis. These products are used in industry, business, engineering, science, education and medicine. A summary of the Company's net revenue as contributed by its major classes of products and services is found on page 44 of the Company's 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders, which page (excluding order data) is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company's computers, computer systems, personal information products, personal peripheral products and other peripherals are used in a variety of applications, including scientific and engineering computation and analysis, instrument control and business information management. The Company's core computing products and technologies include its PA-RISC architecture for systems and workstations and software infrastructure for open systems. The Company's general-purpose computers and computer systems include scalable families of systems and servers for use in small workgroups, larger departments and entire data centers. Key products include the HP 9000 series, which runs HP-UX, HP's implementation of the UNIX(R)(/1/) operating system, and comprises both workstations with powerful computational and graphics capabilities and multiuser computers for both technical and commercial applications; and the HP Vectra series of IBM-compatible personal computers for use in business, engineering, manufacturing and chemical analysis. The Company offers software programming services, network services, distributed system services and data management services. Customers of the Company's computers, computer systems and software infrastructure products include original equipment manufacturers, dealers and value-added resellers, as well as end users for a variety of applications.
In the field of computing during fiscal 1993, the Company expanded its Corporate Business Systems product line, a family of multiuser systems and servers that spans products in both the HP 9000 and the HP 3000 series. Other introductions included models 715, 725 and 735 of the Series 700 family of workstations, which incorporates the Company's PA-RISC architecture; the HP ENVIZEX family of X stations; HP Vectra personal computers based on the Intel486(/2/) DX and DX2 microprocessors; and a series of HP Vectra PC servers.
Software introductions included a portfolio of new applications that expand the capabilities of HP OpenView, the Company's network- and systems-management platform; Release 2.0 of Dashboard for Windows, an upgrade of the Company's push-button utility panel for Windows; and Earth Data System, developed jointly by the Company and Ellery Systems Inc., which facilitates global environmental research.
The Company's peripheral products include a variety of system and desktop printers, such as the HP LaserJet family; the HP DeskJet family, which is based on the Company's thermal inkjet technology; a family of graphic plotters and page scanners; video display terminals; disk (magnetic and optical) and tape drives and related autochangers. In fiscal 1993 the Company introduced the HP LaserJet 4Si and 4Si/MX printers, which are 600-dots-per-inch laser printers that can work concurrently with PCs, Macintosh computers, UNIX system-based workstations and multiple networks; the HP 4L and 4ML printers, the Company's - -------- (/1/)UNIX is a registered trademark of UNIX System Laboratories Inc. in the U.S.A. and other countries. (/2/)Intel486 is a U.S. trademark of Intel Corp.
lowest-priced HP LaserJet printers for individual users; the HP DeskJet 1200C and 1200C/PS color printers, which offer laser-printer speed and functionality; and the HP DeskJet 310 and 310M portable printers. Other fiscal 1993 introductions included the HP Kittyhawk Personal Storage Module II, a 1.3-inch disk drive that stores 42.8 megabytes of text, and the HP FAX-900 and 950, both plain-paper fax machines based on the Company's thermal inkjet technology.
The Company also produces measurement systems for use in electronics, medicine and analytical chemistry. Test and measurement instruments include voltmeters and multimeters that measure voltage, current and resistance; counters that measure the frequency of an electrical signal; oscilloscopes and logic analyzers that measure electrical changes in relation to time; signal generators that provide the electrical stimulus for the testing of systems and components; specialized communications test equipment; and atomic frequency standards, which are used in accurate time-interval and timekeeping applications. Instruments for medical applications include continuous monitoring systems for critical-care patients, medical data-management systems, fetal monitors, electrocardiographs, cardiac catheterization laboratory systems, blood gas measuring instruments, diagnostic ultrasonic imaging systems and cardiac defibrillators. Instruments for analytical applications include gas and liquid chromatographs, mass spectrometers, laboratory data systems and spectrophotometers. Key product introductions for measurement systems in fiscal 1993 included a network-monitoring system that gives telecom providers enhanced analytical and problem-solving capabilities; and the HP 3D Capillary Electrophoresis system, which offers bioscientists leading-edge separation capabilities.
The Company continues to demonstrate its ability to combine measurement and computation. The Company's Unified Laboratory strategy is designed to improve a user's productivity by allowing computers in the analytical laboratory to serve as adjuncts to analytical instrumentation while broadening the user's ability to communicate with other parts of the organization. The Office of the Chemist is a subset of the Unified Laboratory in which an office-based workstation or PC, with business software such as spreadsheets, is combined with analytical equipment and data to allow a chemist to work more efficiently. The Company's Clinical Information System combines patient data from monitoring instruments with other information to assist nurses in providing health care.
The Company also manufactures electronic component products consisting principally of microwave semiconductor, fiber-optic and optoelectronic devices (including light-emitting diodes). The products primarily are sold to other manufacturers for incorporation into their electronic products but also are used in many of the Company's products. In fiscal 1993 the Company introduced fiber-optic transceivers that reduce the costs of high-speed, multimedia networks; and a greenish-yellow, high-brightness light-emitting diode designed for use in highway signs, traffic signals and illuminated displays. During 1993 the Company's acquisition of BT&D Technologies, Ltd., a joint venture between British Telecommunications plc and DuPont, helped round out the Company's offering of components for the communications market. BT&D's products include fiber optic couplers, transmitters and receivers that go directly into the communications network for very high-speed, long-wavelength, laser-driven voice and data applications.
The Company provides service for its equipment, systems and peripherals, including support and maintenance services, parts and supplies for design and manufacturing systems, office and information systems, general-purpose instruments, computers and computer systems, peripherals and network products. During fiscal 1993, the Company derived 24 percent of its net revenue from such services.
The Company strives, in all its businesses, to promote industry standards that recognize customer preferences for open systems in which different vendors' products can work together. The Company often bases its product innovations on such standards and seeks to make its technology innovations into industry standards through licensing to other companies and standards-setting groups. For example, during fiscal 1993 the Company worked to make its serial infrared technology and its standard instrument control library into industry standards.
MARKETING
Customers. The Company has approximately 600 sales and support offices and distributorships in 110 countries. Sales are made to industrial and commercial customers, educational and scientific institutions, healthcare providers (including individual doctors, hospitals, clinics and research laboratories) and, in the case of its calculators and other personal information products, computer peripherals and PCs, to individuals for personal use.
Sales Organization. More than half of the Company's orders are derived through value-added resale channels, including dealers and original equipment manufacturers. The remaining product revenue results from the efforts of its own sales organization selling to end users. In fiscal 1993 a higher proportion of the Company's net revenue than in fiscal 1992 was generated from products such as personal peripherals, which are primarily sold through dealers and other value-added resellers. Sales operations are supported by approximately 35,000 individuals, including field service engineers, sales representatives, service personnel and administrative support staff.
International. The Company's total orders originating outside of the United States as a percentage of total Company orders were approximately 54 percent in fiscal 1993, 55 percent in fiscal 1992 and 56 percent in fiscal 1991. The majority of these international orders were from customers other than foreign governments. Approximately two-thirds of the Company's international orders in each of the last three fiscal years were derived from Europe, with most of the balance coming from Japan, other countries in Asia Pacific, Latin America and Canada.
Most of the Company's sales in international markets are made by foreign sales subsidiaries. In countries with low sales volume, sales are made through various representative and distributorship arrangements. Certain sales in international markets, however, are made directly by the parent Company from the United States.
The Company believes that its overall net profit margins on international sales are comparable to those obtained on sales made in the United States. The Company's international business is subject to risks customarily encountered in foreign operations, including fluctuations in monetary exchange rates, import and export controls and the economic, political and regulatory policies of foreign governments. The Company believes that its international diversification provides stability to its worldwide operations and reduces the impact on the Company of adverse economic changes in any single country. A summary of the Company's net revenue, earnings from operations and identifiable assets by geographic area is found on page 42 of the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders, which page is incorporated herein by reference.
COMPETITION
The Company encounters aggressive competition in all areas of its business activity. Its competitors are numerous, ranging from some of the world's largest corporations to many relatively small and highly specialized firms. The Company competes primarily on the basis of technology, performance, price, quality, reliability, distribution and customer service and support. The Company's reputation, the ease of use of its products and the ready availability of customer training are also important competitive factors.
The computer market is characterized by vigorous competition among major corporations with long-established positions and a large number of new and rapidly growing firms. While the absence of reliable statistics makes it difficult to state the Company's relative position, the Company believes that it is the second-largest U.S.-based manufacturer of general-purpose computers, personal peripherals such as desktop printers, and calculators and other personal information products, all for industrial, scientific and business applications. The markets for test and measurement instruments are influenced by specialized manufacturers which often have great strength in narrow market segments. In general, however, the Company believes that it is one of the principal suppliers in these markets.
BACKLOG
The Company believes that backlog is not a meaningful indicator of future business prospects due to the volume of products delivered from shelf inventories, the shortening of product delivery schedules, and the portion of revenue that relates to its service business. Therefore, the Company believes that backlog information is not material to an understanding of its business.
PATENTS
The Company's general policy has been to seek patent protection for those inventions and improvements likely to be incorporated into its products or to give the Company a competitive advantage. While the Company believes that its patents and applications have value, in general no single patent is in itself essential. The Company believes that its technological position depends primarily on the technical competence and creative ability of its research and development personnel.
MATERIALS
The Company's manufacturing operations employ a wide variety of semiconductors, electro-mechanical components and assemblies, and raw materials such as plastic resins and sheet metal. The Company believes that the materials and supplies necessary for its manufacturing operations are presently available in the quantities required. The Company purchases materials, supplies and product sub-assemblies from a substantial number of vendors. For many of its products, the Company has existing alternate sources of supply, or such sources are readily available. A portion of the Company's manufacturing operations is dependent on the ability of significant suppliers to deliver integral sub- assemblies and components in time to meet critical manufacturing schedules. The failure of suppliers to deliver these subassemblies and components in a timely manner may adversely affect the Company's operating results until alternate sourcing could be developed. The Company believes that alternate suppliers or design solutions could be arranged within a reasonable time so that material long-term adverse impacts would be unlikely.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The process of developing new high technology products is complex and uncertain and requires innovative designs that anticipate customer needs and technological trends. After the products are developed, the Company must quickly manufacture products in sufficient volumes at acceptable costs to meet demand.
Expenditures for research and development amounted to $1.8 billion in fiscal 1993, $1.6 billion in fiscal 1992 and $1.5 billion in fiscal 1991. In fiscal 1993, research and development expenditures were 8.7 percent of net revenue. This work is Company-sponsored, except for minor research and development done in the Company's laboratories pursuant to government-sponsored projects.
ENVIRONMENT
The operations of the Company involve the use of substances regulated under various federal, state and international laws governing the environment. It is the Company's policy to apply strict standards for environmental protection to sites inside and outside the U.S., even if not subject to regulations imposed by local governments. Liability for environmental remediation is accrued when it is considered probable and costs can be estimated. Environmental expenditures are presently not material to HP's operations or financial position.
EMPLOYEES
The Company had approximately 96,200 employees worldwide at October 31, 1993.
ITEM 2.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 3000 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, California 94304. As of October 31, 1993, the Company owned or leased a total of approximately 40.9 million square feet of space worldwide. The Company believes that its existing properties are in good condition and suitable for the conduct of its business.
The Company's plants are equipped with machinery, most of which is owned by the Company and is in part developed by it to meet the special requirements for manufacturing precision electronic instruments and systems. At the end of fiscal year 1993 the Company was productively utilizing the vast majority of the space in its facilities, while actively disposing of space determined to be excess.
The Company anticipates that most of the capital necessary for expansion will continue to be obtained from internally generated funds. Investment in new property, plant and equipment amounted to $1.4 billion in fiscal 1993, $1.0 billion in fiscal 1992 and $862 million in fiscal 1991.
The locations of the Company's major sales, marketing, product development and manufacturing facilities are listed on page 48 of the Company's 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders, which page is incorporated herein by reference.
As of October 31, 1993, the Company's marketing operations occupied approximately 11 million square feet, of which 3.9 million square feet are located within the United States. The Company owns 56% of the space used for marketing activities and leases the remaining 44%.
The Company's manufacturing plants, research and development facilities and warehouse and administrative facilities occupied 29.9 million square feet, of which 22.8 million square feet are located within the United States. The Company owns 79% of its manufacturing, research and development, warehouse and administrative space and leases the remaining 21%. None of the property owned by the Company is held subject to any major encumbrances.
ITEM 3.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
There are presently pending no legal proceedings, other than routine litigation incidental to the Company's business, to which the Company is a party or to which any of its property is subject.
The Company is a party to, or otherwise involved in, proceedings brought by federal or state environmental agencies under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), known as "Superfund," or state laws similar to CERCLA. The Company is also conducting environmental investigation or remediation at several of its current or former operating sites pursuant to administrative orders or consent agreements with state environmental agencies.
Liability for environmental remediation is accrued when it is considered probable and costs can be estimated. Environmental expenditures are presently not material to HP's operations or financial position.
