Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and shall not be
deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) solely as a result of being

quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, GAAP consolidated
condensed balance sheet as of October 31, 2009 and certain segment
financial results for its fiscal quarter and fiscal year

also filed herewith as part of Exhibit 99.2. The information in
Exhibit 99.2 is filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act and

Securities Act.

GAAP basis, HP provides non-GAAP operating profit, non-GAAP operating
margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and
gross cash. HP also provides forecasts of non-GAAP diluted earnings per

in which HP management compensates for those limitations, and the
substantive reasons why HP management believes that these non-GAAP
measures provide useful information to investors is included under “Use of
non-GAAP financial information” in Exhibit 99.1. This additional non-GAAP

Events.

On
November 19, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hewlett-Packard Company
(“HP”) authorized an additional $8.0 billion for future repurchases of its
outstanding shares of common stock. HP intends to use the
additional authorization to repurchase its shares from time to time to
offset the dilution created by shares issued under employee stock plans
and to repurchase shares opportunistically. During its fourth
fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2009, HP repurchased approximately
$2.1 billion worth of its shares in open market repurchase
transactions. As of October 31, 2009, HP had approximately $4.0
billion of repurchase authorization remaining under the $8.0 billion
repurchase authorization approved by the Board of Directors in September
2008.
