On September 2, Hewlett Packard Enterprise rose 3.64% overnight, trading at $52.72 per share. The move came as the company released its fiscal third-quarter results after the regular session, with AI-driven revenue growth validating bullish market expectations.
Ahead of the report, BofA Securities had forecast fiscal Q3 revenue of $12.3 billion and earnings per share of $0.95, both above consensus estimates of $12 billion and $0.93, respectively. The standout metric was AI systems revenue, projected to surge to $2 billion from $900 million in the prior quarter. The overnight rally suggests that reported figures confirmed this accelerating AI demand trajectory.
The rebound followed a session in which Hewlett Packard Enterprise had declined over 3% alongside broader hardware sector weakness, with peers Dell and Seagate also posting losses. Separately, multiple Wall Street firms had recently turned constructive on the stock, with JPMorgan raising its price target to $70, Morgan Stanley upgrading to Overweight, and Goldman Sachs maintaining a Buy rating with a $75 target. The average analyst rating stands at Overweight with a mean price target of approximately $68.47.
