The company says it will shoulder $650 million in restructuring costs, with about $250 million of the expense taking place in fiscal year 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Shares of HP fell nearly 6% in extended trading on Tuesday following the news.

Annual revenue was up 3.2% year-over-year, hitting $55.3 billion. Fourth quarter net revenue was $14.6 billion, up 4.2% and marking HP\u2019s sixth consecutive quarter of revenue growth.<\/p>\n<p>HP laid off 1,000 to 2,000 workers in February as part of a separate restructuring plan.<\/p>\n<p>According to an earnings presentation viewed by Fox Business, HP\u2019s strategy is to drive \u201cartificial intelligence adoption and enablement\u201d while reducing costs, partly through \u201cworkforce reductions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Related: <\/b><b>AI and Cost-Cutting Lead to the Worst October Layoffs in 22 Years<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Reuters reported that during a media briefing call this week, Lores said HP started rolling out AI pilots two years ago to drive productivity and customer service.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we have learned is that we need to start from redesigning the process, and once we know how the process could be redone using AI, using agentic AI, it can really have a very significant impact,\u201d Lores said on the call.<\/p>\n<p>Agentic AI is AI that can act with little to no human intervention to make decisions, carry out plans and take action. Companies are already using it to get work done faster. Services firm Capita announced earlier this year that it has used agentic AI on more than 200 recruitment tasks to accelerate hiring.<\/p>\n<p>A McKinsey report released on Tuesday found that AI can already automate 57% of all U.S. work hours, but this represents the automation of tasks, not the elimination of jobs. AI can take over repetitive tasks, but human skills like judgment and emotional intelligence will remain crucial to the future of work, according to the researchers.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h2 class=\"tw:mt-0 tw:mb-1 tw:font-sans tw:text-2xl\">Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"tw:font-semibold tw:font-sans tw:text-base tw:marker:text-blue-600\">\n<li>HP is planning to lay off between 4,000 and 6,000 employees by the end of its fiscal year 2028. <\/li>\n<li>The move is part of a broader push to incorporate AI into the company\u2019s operations. <\/li>\n<li>According to an HP earnings presentation, the company\u2019s strategy is to drive \u201cartificial intelligence adoption and enablement\u201d while reducing costs through \u201cworkforce reductions.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>HP plans to cut between 4,000 and 6,000 jobs by the end of its fiscal year 2028 as part of a broader push to implement AI in its operations.
