HP’s Fiscal 2026 Plan includes HP’s efforts to drive customer satisfaction, product innovation and productivity primarily through artificial intelligence adoption and enablement and the resulting efficiencies, including those that enable a reduction in workforce. Anticipated cost savings associated with the Fiscal 2026 Plan represent expected gross reductions in costs from these measures. These cost savings are net of any new recurring costs resulting from these initiatives and exclude one-time investments to generate such savings. HP’s expectations on the longer-term sustainability of such cost savings are based on its current business operations and market dynamics and could be significantly impacted by various factors, including but not limited to HP’s evolving business models, future investment decisions, market environment and technology landscape. The forward-looking statements in this report are made as of the date of this filing and HP assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The discussion of financial condition and results of our operations that follows provides information that will assist the reader in understanding our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this document.

OVERVIEW

HP delivers innovative and AI-powered devices, software, services, and subscriptions that drive business growth and professional fulfillment. We have three reportable segments: Personal Systems, Printing, and Corporate Investments. The Personal Systems segment offers commercial and consumer desktops, notebooks and workstations (including HP’s portfolio of AI PCs and workstations), thin clients, retail POS systems, displays, hybrid systems, software, solutions including endpoint security, and services. The Printing segment provides consumer and commercial printer hardware, supplies, solutions and services. Corporate Investments include certain business incubation and investment projects.

• In Personal Systems, our long-term strategic focus is on:

◦profitable growth through innovation, market segmentation and simplification of our portfolio;

◦enhanced innovation in multi-operating systems, multi-architecture, customer segments and other key attributes;

◦investing in endpoint services and solutions. We are focused on services, including Device-as-a-Service, as the market shifts to subscription-based solutions, and accelerating in attractive adjacencies such as hybrid systems; and

◦driving innovation to enable productivity and collaboration, with AI PCs and workstations playing a critical role in the transformation of how people live and work.

• In Printing, our long-term strategic focus is on:

◦offering innovative, intelligent printing experiences and subscription-based solutions designed to securely serve consumer and SMB customers through our Instant Ink Services and HP All-In Plan, as well as large enterprises through our Managed Print Services solutions;

◦providing digital printing solutions for industrial graphics segments and applications including commercial publishing, labels, packaging, and textiles; and

◦expanding our footprint in 3D printing across digital manufacturing and strategic applications.

We are focused on driving further growth, recurring revenue and investment in strategic areas and believe we are well positioned to lead the future of work with our competitive product lineup and enhanced portfolio of hybrid systems, remote-computing solutions, and intelligent print solutions. We are driving innovation by accelerating the delivery of AI across our product portfolio and focusing on growth opportunities in commercial, solutions, and premium consumer and gaming markets. We have consolidated all our software resources under the Technology and Innovation Organization to evolve from a transactional hardware company to a more experience-led organization, further strengthening our ability to capture these opportunities.

We continue to experience challenges that are representative of the trends and uncertainties that may affect our industry, generally, and our business and financial results, specifically, and we expect these challenges to continue in the short-term. One set of challenges relates to the current macroeconomic environment and the adverse impact on demand for certain of our products. A second set of challenges relates to changes in the competitive landscape. Our primary competitors are exerting competitive pressure in targeted areas and are entering new markets, our emerging competitors are introducing new

technologies and business models, and our alliance partners in some businesses are increasingly becoming our competitors in others. A third set of challenges relates to business model changes and our go-to-market execution in an evolving distribution and reseller landscape, with increasing online and omnichannel presence. Specific challenges we face at the segment level are set forth below.

• In Personal Systems, we face challenges with a competitive pricing environment, variability in commodity costs, especially increasing memory and storage costs, and the uncertainty of the market’s ability to absorb price increases.

• In Printing, we face challenges from changing customer behaviors as well as competitors with a favorable foreign currency environment and non-original supplies (which includes imitation, refill, or remanufactured alternatives). We also obtain many Printing components from single source suppliers due to technology, availability, price, quality, or other considerations.

To address these challenges, we continue to pursue innovation with a view towards developing new products and services aligned with generating market demand and meeting the needs of our customers and partners. In addition, we continue to work on improving our operations and adapting our business models, with a particular focus on enhancing our end-to-end processes, analytics, efficiencies and simplification of our product portfolio. We also continue to work on optimizing our sales coverage models, aligning our sales incentives with our strategic goals, improving channel execution and inventory, production and backlog management, strengthening our capabilities in our areas of strategic focus, effective cost management, strengthening our pricing strategy, and developing and capitalizing on market opportunities.

Macroeconomic Environment

Our business and financial performance depend significantly on worldwide economic conditions. We face global macroeconomic challenges such as ongoing geopolitical tensions, uncertainty in the markets, volatility in exchange rates, inflationary trends and evolving dynamics in the global trade environment. We also experience seasonality in the sale of our products and services which may be affected by general economic conditions.

Since April 2025, new, substantial tariffs have been imposed on imports to the United States. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court held that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act were not authorized by statute which removed the obligation for and collection of related tariffs. We are continuing to assess the impact of subsequent developments, including the potential recovery of tariffs previously paid, as well as the effects of any additional tariffs or trade actions that may be imposed.

During fiscal year 2025 and through the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, we experienced higher commodity and trade related costs, which were not fully mitigated by pricing and other actions enacted during the period. Additionally, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, we experienced higher inflationary pressure in memory and storage costs and potential supply constraints in our Personal Systems business, which we anticipate will continue. We continue to evaluate and implement further mitigating actions, including potential supply chain resiliency movements and cost and pricing measures, as the trade and supply environments evolve.

New or sustained changes to tariffs and commodity costs could result in increased supply chain challenges, cost volatility, and consumer and economic uncertainty which may have a significant adverse impact to our results of operations and cash flows to the extent our efforts do not fully mitigate these effects.

We are also exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have a large global presence, with more than 65% of our net revenue from outside the United States. As a result, our financial results can be, and particularly in recent periods have been, negatively impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For a further discussion of trends, uncertainties and other factors that could impact our operating results, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025.

Transformation Update

On November 25, 2025, we announced our Fiscal 2026 Plan intended to drive customer satisfaction, product innovation, and productivity primarily through artificial intelligence adoption and enablement that HP expects will be implemented through fiscal 2028. We are on-track to achieve our expected gross reductions in cost by the end of fiscal year 2028. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we took actions to integrate AI into our channel partner experience and scale additional AI agents in our supply chain operations and expect to continue to accelerate and scale these initiatives.

See “Risk Factors—Strategic and Operational Risks—We may not achieve some or all of the expected benefits of our restructuring and other plans and such plans may adversely affect our business” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025. For more information on our Fiscal 2026 Plan, see Note 3,

“Restructuring and Other Charges,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

MD&A is based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended January 31, 2026 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting estimates in MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

For a summary of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements see Note 1, “Basis of Presentation”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue from our international operations has historically represented, and we expect will continue to represent, a majority of our overall net revenue. As a result, our net revenue growth has been impacted, and we expect it will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In order to provide a framework for assessing performance excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, we supplement the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue with the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a constant currency basis, which excludes the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations calculated by translating current period revenues using monthly exchange rates from the comparative period and excluding any hedging impact recognized in the current period, and without adjusting for any repricing or demand impacts from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This information is provided so that net revenue can be viewed with and without the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which is consistent with how management evaluates our net revenue results and trends, as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of ongoing operating results. The constant currency measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the year-over-year percentage change in net revenue on a GAAP basis. Other companies may calculate and define similarly labeled items differently, which may limit the usefulness of this measure for comparative purposes.

Results of operations in dollars and as a percentage of net revenue were as follows:

(1)Products cost of net revenue as a percentage of net revenue is calculated as a percentage of product net revenue.

(2)Services cost of net revenue as a percentage of net revenue is calculated as a percentage of services net revenue.

Net Revenue

Products net revenue includes revenue from the sale of hardware, supplies, subscriptions and software licenses. Services net revenue includes revenue from our service offerings and support on hardware devices.

For the three months ended January 31, 2026, net revenue increased 6.9% (increased 5.2% on a constant currency basis) as compared to the prior-year period. U.S. net revenue increased 0.3% to $4.4 billion, and net revenue from international operations increased 10.2% to $10.0 billion. The increase in net revenue was driven by products net revenue due to increased units in Personal Systems, partially offset by demand softness in Printing. Services net revenue increased due to support services on hardware devices.

A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment net revenue is included in “Segment Information” below.

Gross Margin

For the three months ended January 31, 2026, gross margin decreased by 1.4 percentage points primarily driven by products gross margin due to higher commodity and trade related costs as well as unfavorable mix shifts, partially offset by disciplined pricing actions and cost management. Services gross margin increased due to cost savings and favorable mix shifts.

A detailed discussion of the factors contributing to the changes in segment gross margins is included under “Segment Information” below.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development (“R&D”)

R&D expense remained flat for the three months ended January 31, 2026.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”)

SG&A expense increased 3.1% for the three months ended January 31, 2026 primarily due to higher litigation charges and variable compensation, partially offset by cost savings and the receipt of a government grant in the current period.

Restructuring and Other Charges

Restructuring and other charges for the three months ended January 31, 2026 primarily relate to the Fiscal 2026 Plan. For more information, see Note 3, “Restructuring and other charges”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Acquisition and Divestiture (Credits) Charges

Acquisition and divestiture charges for the three months ended January 31, 2026 decreased by $8 million primarily due to lower acquisition and integration activities.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets decreased 11.1% for the three months ended January 31, 2026 primarily due to full amortization of certain intangible assets and impairments recorded in the second half of fiscal year 2025.

Interest and Other, Net

Interest and other, net expense decreased $53 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026 primarily due to lower factoring costs and foreign currency impacts.

Provision for Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 18.8% for the three months ended January 31, 2026. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2026 was primarily due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from HP’s operations in lower-tax jurisdictions throughout the world.

Segment Information

A description of the products and services for each segment and the business unit realignment in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 can be found in Note 2, “Segment Information” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Personal Systems

The components of net revenue and the weighted net revenue change by business unit were as follows:

(1)Weighted Net Revenue Change Percentage Points measures contribution of each business unit towards overall segment revenue growth. It is calculated by dividing the change in revenue of each business unit from the prior-year period by total segment revenue for the prior-year period.

Three months ended January 31, 2026 compared with three months ended January 31, 2025

Personal Systems net revenue increased 11.1% (increased 9.1% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended January 31, 2026. The net revenue increase was primarily due to a 12.1% increase in PCs unit volume driven by the Windows-based PC operating system refresh as well as accelerated demand resulting from anticipated memory cost increases primarily in Consumer, partially offset by a 0.2% decrease in average selling price (“ASPs”). The decrease in ASPs is primarily due to unfavorable mix shifts, partially offset by disciplined pricing actions and favorable currency impacts.

Commercial PS net revenue increased 9.1% primarily due to an 11.0% increase in units, partially offset by a 0.9% decrease in ASPs. The decrease in ASPs is primarily due to higher Chromebook mix, specifically in the education sector, partially offset by favorable currency impacts.

Consumer PS net revenue increased 16.2% primarily due to a 13.7% increase in units and a 2.3% increase in ASPs. The increase in ASPs was primarily due to favorable currency impacts, favorable mix shifts and disciplined pricing actions.

Personal Systems earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 0.5 percentage points driven by a decrease in gross margin, partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue. Gross margin decreased primarily due to higher commodity costs, partially offset by favorable currency impacts and disciplined pricing actions in Consumer PS. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased primarily due to cost savings initiatives, partially offset by higher variable compensation.

Printing

The components of net revenue and the weighted net revenue change by business unit were as follows:

(1)Weighted Net Revenue Change Percentage Points measures contribution of each business unit towards overall segment revenue growth. It is calculated by dividing the change in revenue of each business unit from the prior-year period by total segment revenue for the prior-year period.

Three months ended January 31, 2026 compared with three months ended January 31, 2025

Printing net revenue decreased 2.2% (decreased 3.2% on a constant currency basis) for the three months ended January 31, 2026. The decrease in net revenue was driven by Supplies, Commercial Printing, and Consumer Printing. Net revenue for Supplies decreased 1.1%, primarily due to decline in the installed base and usage, partially offset by disciplined pricing actions. Printer units decreased by 6.5% primarily due to demand softness and competitive pressures, while ASPs increased by 0.9%.

Net revenue for Commercial Printing decreased 3.4%, primarily due to a 6.5% decrease in printer unit volume, partially offset by a 0.5% increase in ASPs. The increase in ASPs was primarily driven by favorable currency impacts, partially offset by unfavorable mix shifts.

Net revenue for Consumer Printing decreased 7.8%, primarily due to a 6.4% decrease in printer unit volume, partially offset by a 2.0% increase in ASPs. The increase in ASPs was primarily driven by favorable mix shifts and currency impacts, partially offset by competitive pricing.

Printing earnings from operations as a percentage of net revenue decreased by 0.4 percentage points for the period. The decrease was driven by an increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by an increase in gross margin. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased primarily due to higher variable compensation, partially offset by the receipt of a government grant. Gross margin increased primarily due to mix shift towards Supplies, partially offset by higher net trade related costs.

Corporate Investments

The loss from operations in Corporate Investments for the three months ended January 31, 2026 was primarily due to expenses associated with our incubation projects and investments in digital enablement.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We use cash generated by operations as our primary source of liquidity. We believe that current cash, cash flow from operating activities, new borrowings, available commercial paper authorization and the credit facility will be sufficient to meet HP’s operating cash requirements, planned capital expenditures, interest and principal payments on all borrowings, pension and post-retirement funding requirements, authorized share repurchases and annual dividend payments for the foreseeable future. Additionally, if suitable acquisition opportunities arise, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the required financing through additional borrowings. While our access to capital markets may be constrained and our cost of borrowing may increase under certain business, market and economic conditions, our access to a variety of funding sources to meet our liquidity needs is designed to facilitate continued access to capital resources under all such conditions. Our liquidity is subject to various risks including the risks identified in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025 and the market risks identified in the section entitled “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Item 3 of Part I of this report.

Amounts held outside of the U.S. are generally utilized to support non-U.S. liquidity needs and may from time to time be distributed to the U.S. Repatriations of amounts held outside the U.S. generally will not be taxable from a U.S. federal tax perspective but may be subject to state income or foreign withholding tax upon repatriation. As we evaluate the future cash needs of our operations, we may revise the amount of foreign earnings considered to be permanently reinvested in our foreign subsidiaries and how to utilize such funds, including reducing our gross debt level, or other uses.

Liquidity

Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and total debt were as follows:

Our key cash flow metrics were as follows:

Operating Activities

Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2025, net cash provided by operating activities remained flat.

Key Working Capital Metrics

Management utilizes current cash conversion cycle information to manage our working capital level. Our working capital metrics and cash conversion cycle impacts were as follows:

January 31, 2026 as compared to January 31, 2025

The cash conversion cycle is the sum of DSO and DIO less DPO. Items which may cause the cash conversion cycle in a particular period to differ from historical trends include, but are not limited to, changes in business mix, changes in payment terms and timing, timing and extent of receivables factoring, seasonal trends and the timing of revenue recognition and inventory purchases within the period.

DSO measures the average number of days our receivables are outstanding. DSO is calculated by dividing ending accounts receivable, net of allowance for credit losses, by a 90-day average net revenue. The increase in DSO was primarily due to lower factoring.

DIO measures the average number of days from procurement to sale of our product. DIO is calculated by dividing ending inventory by a 90-day average cost of goods sold. The decrease in DIO was primarily due to inventory optimization.

DPO measures the average number of days our accounts payable balances are outstanding. DPO is calculated by dividing ending accounts payable by a 90-day average cost of goods sold. The increase in DPO was primarily due to higher purchases.

Investing Activities

Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2025, net cash used in investing activities decreased by $31 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026, primarily due to lower investment in property, plant, equipment and purchased intangible of $69 million, and net proceeds from business divestiture of $26 million, partially offset by collateral posted for derivative instruments of $76 million.

Financing Activities

Compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2025, net cash used in financing activities increased by $0.2 billion for the three months ended January 31, 2026, primarily due to a $0.2 billion increase in share repurchases.

Share Repurchases and Dividends

During the three months ended January 31, 2026, HP returned $0.6 billion to shareholders in the form of share repurchases of $0.3 billion and cash dividends of $0.3 billion. As of January 31, 2026, HP had approximately $8.1 billion remaining under the share repurchase authorization approved by HP’s Board of Directors.

For more information on our share repurchases, see Note 9, “Stockholders’ Deficit”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Capital Resources

Debt Levels

We maintain debt levels that we establish through consideration of a number of factors, including cash flow expectations, cash requirements for operations, investment plans (including acquisitions), share repurchase activities, our cost of capital and targeted capital structure.

Our weighted-average interest rate reflects the effective rate on our borrowings prevailing during the period and reflects the effect of interest rate swaps. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 7, “Financial Instruments”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

As of January 31, 2026, we maintained a $5.0 billion sustainability-linked senior unsecured committed revolving credit facility which will be available until August 1, 2029. Funds borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be used for general corporate purposes.

Available Borrowing Resources

As of January 31, 2026, we had available borrowing resources of $1.1 billion from uncommitted lines of credit in addition to funds available under the revolving credit facility.

In February 2024, we filed an automatically effective shelf registration statement with the SEC, which enables us to offer for sale, at any time and from time to time, in one or more offerings, an unspecified amount of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depository shares and warrants.

For more information on our borrowings, see Note 8, “Borrowings”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Credit Ratings

Our credit risk is evaluated by major independent rating agencies based upon publicly available information as well as information they obtain during our ongoing discussions. While we currently do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of a material amount of our debt, a downgrade from our current credit rating may increase the cost of borrowing under our credit facility, reduce market capacity for our commercial paper, require the posting of additional collateral under some of our derivative contracts and may have a negative impact on our liquidity and capital position and our contractual business going forward, depending on the extent of such downgrade. We can access alternative sources of funding, including drawdowns under our credit facility, if necessary, to offset potential reductions in the market capacity for our commercial paper.

CONTRACTUAL AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS

Unconditional Purchase Obligation

Purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on HP and that specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Unconditional purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancellable without penalty. The Company's purchase obligations under variable price provisions approximate market prices at the time of purchase and are estimated using current period pricing. Actual future variable price purchase commitments may significantly vary depending on market prices and product mix at the time of purchase. The Company's unconditional purchase obligations are primarily related to inventory and service support. As of January 31, 2026, the Company had outstanding purchase commitments of $2.4 billion. The majority of these commitments are due within five years. For more information, see Note 13, “Commitments,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plan Contributions

As of January 31, 2026, we anticipate making contributions for the remainder of fiscal year 2026 of approximately $31.0 million to our non-U.S. pension plans and $23.0 million to cover benefit payments to U.S. non-qualified pension plan participants. Our policy is to fund our pension plans so that we meet the minimum contribution required by local government, funding and taxing authorities. For more information on our retirement and post-retirement benefit plans, see Note 4, “Retirement and Post-Retirement Benefit Plans”, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025.

Cost Savings Plan

As a result of our approved restructuring plans, we expect to make future cash payments of approximately $0.6 billion. For more information on our restructuring activities that are part of our cost improvements, see Note 3, “Restructuring and Other Charges”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Uncertain Tax Positions

As of January 31, 2026, we had approximately $829 million of recorded liabilities and related interest and penalties pertaining to uncertain tax positions. We are unable to make a reasonable estimate as to when cash settlement with the tax authorities might occur due to the uncertainties related to these tax matters. Payments of these liabilities would result from settlements with taxing authorities. For more information on our uncertain tax positions, see Note 4, “Taxes on Earnings”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As part of our ongoing business, we have not participated in transactions that generate material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

HP utilizes certain third-party arrangements in the normal course of business as part of HP’s cash and liquidity management and also to provide liquidity to certain partners to facilitate their working capital requirements. For more information on our third-party short-term financing arrangements, see Note 5, “Supplementary Financial Information”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting HP, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since October 31, 2025.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to HP’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended January 31, 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
