Im not excited about their earnings or forward thinking either. Lets face it, they're not on the cutting edge of anything..that we know of! Also they don't appear to be crumbling or planning to lay down and die in the near future, which is generally where it's valued, debt dragging them down like a stone, to fund a plump dividend. The market will take its eyes off it and move on to bright shiny things. And cheap options will rise in the distance like a shimmering oasis, waiting for the street to return to THE copy machine.

XRX: Xerox’s PARC Spins Out Novity, a Breakthrough Predictive Maintenance Venture
NORWALK, Conn., November 02, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Xerox has spun out Novity™, a start-up founded by Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Center that has developed and commercialized industrial predictive maintenance technology.
"PARC’s goal has always been to incubate, launch and commercialize disruptive technologies, and Novity is an excellent example of this model in action," said Naresh Shanker, chief technology officer at Xerox and President at PARC. "We are proud of Novity’s success to-date and look forward to following the journey as it grows beyond PARC and brings manufacturers closer to the ultimate goal of zero unplanned downtime."
"Our commitment to existing and future industrial customers is to fundamentally transform the performance of a key part of their operations and ensure that it performs consistently and predictably," said Markus Larsson, founder and CEO, Novity. "With the combination of our team and PARC’s IP embedded in the Novity TruPrognostics™ engine, we’re well on the way to deliver on our mission to make manufacturers operate cleaner, faster and better."
The Novity solution was launched by PARC earlier this year and is an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology that uses equipment sensors and proprietary algorithms to enable industrial manufacturers to see the future health of their production assets without large amounts of historical data. The Novity TruPrognostics engine relies on a combination of machine learning and physics-based models of equipment, predicting failures with 90 percent or better accuracy and lead times of months, not weeks or days.
With the spin out, Xerox will maintain a minority stake in Novity.

Xerox Announces Multiyear Cloud Deal With Oracle
https://ashline.net/xerox-announces-multiyear-cloud-deal-with-oracle/
Dec. 18, 2021
The multiyear deal provides Xerox with a range of services for its business. The firm believes it will save the company up to $300 million over the next five years.
Xerox and Oracle have announced a multiyear cloud deal that will allow both companies to work together in the cloud. The deal will give Xerox access to Oracle’s cloud services, while also allowing Oracle to tap into Xerox’s hardware expertise.
On Thursday, Xerox Holdings Corp. announced a multiyear agreement with Oracle Corp., which would offer cloud computing infrastructure and software to Xerox’s business incubator.
The deal’s terms were not revealed.
The move is part of Xerox’s aim to accelerate the creation of new businesses that go beyond its trademark printers and copiers, whether as new business units, startups, subsidiaries, or joint partnerships.
Xerox’s net income for the quarter ended Sept. 30 fell to $90 million from $219 million a year earlier, when corporations migrated to remote work and left vacant buildings behind during the height of the Covid-19 epidemic in 2020. The business announced in October that net income for the same time this year was nearly steady at $89 million.
According to Naresh Shanker, Xerox senior vice president and chief technology officer, “creating new in-house companies” was a strategy that predates the pandemic but was expedited by workplace closures and remote work.
The objective, according to Mr. Shanker, is to build firms focusing on 3-D printing, industrial Internet-of-Things, and sustainable technology, among other new technologies, which the company has recognized as having high development potential.
Mr. Shanker said, “The aim is to develop an atmosphere and agility to compete with all of the entrepreneurs in these various areas throughout the globe.”
Xerox, based in Norwalk, Conn., is using Oracle’s cloud services to provide the digital backbone for these new businesses, which includes enterprise apps for e-commerce platforms, finance and accounting, budgeting and financial planning, analytics, and a data warehouse, among other tools, according to him.
Depending on the industry and market, each new company is projected to need its own unique information-technology infrastructure, according to Mr. Shanker. Importantly, he noted, these systems must be implemented quickly and flexible enough to react to changing market needs.
“It’s all about getting things done quickly.” “That’s how we got here,” Mr. Shanker said.

CRN: Xerox Acquires IT Consultant Competitive Computing To Reach More SMBs
By C.J. Fairfield
October 08, 2021
https://www.crn.com/news/channel-programs/xerox-acquires-it-consultant-competitive-computing-to-reach-more-smbs
Xerox has acquired Colchester, Vt.-based computer consulting firm Competitive Computing (C2) in a move to expand its IT security and cost optimization solutions in the SMB space.
“If you think about our clients today, and SMB clients particularly, there is an increased reliance on technology as a key element of their business success,” Joanne Collins Smee, executive vice president, chief commercial, SMB and channel officer at Xerox, told CRN. “The second thing is technology is burgeoning with complexity because of all the different solutions. Then the pandemic, of course, meant that clients had fewer staff, so things were more complex.
“We have found an incredible interest from our clients that traditionally had bought print from us saying, ‘Can you come in and help us manage the rest of our IT environment?’” she added.
[Related: Xerox Launches CareAR Subsidiary, Receives $10M Investment From ServiceNow]
About 65 employees are coming over to Xerox in the acquisition. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The Competitive Computing acquisition expands on two other Xerox acquisitions intended to help Xerox expand its IT services lineup. Xerox acquired both ITEC Connect, a leader in IT services in the U.K., and Digitex, an IT services provider in Canada, in March 2020.
“This is part of what we‘re doing to address the need that’s out there for technology support,” Collins Smee told CRN. “We are going to be very focused on security and protecting them. We think we have a really winning solution here with our new IT services offering.”
The Competitive Computing acquisition brings more technical support expertise to Xerox as well as grow its capacity to serve more clients, she said.
“The reality is SMBs are hit much more frequently by the bad guys than the big firms,” she said, noting the security challenges faced by small businesses. “With cost optimization, they‘re looking [to] use technology to actually have a lower cost profile and drive business success.”
Competitive Computing will initially operate under that name and then move to Xerox Business Solutions, Collins Smee said.
“We are thrilled to join the Xerox IT Services team. After serving Vermont, New England, and national clients for over 28 years, our company and team members are ideally positioned to contribute to the growth of Xerox IT Services,” said Marty Thieret, co-founder and CEO, Competitive Computing, in a statement. “Together with Xerox, we will broaden the portfolio of high-value IT and business services for our expanding client base, offer tremendous employee growth opportunities, and continue investing in the Vermont community.”
Collins Smee said Norwalk, Conn.-based Xerox recently did a survey on the SMB market and found that security is the biggest concern, followed by the burgeoning complexity of operating IT with a limited staff and, thirdly, cost optimization. To help those clients, Xerox now offers IT solutions that include laptop, server, network and router support.
The company is also offering robotic process automation (RPA) services by using the Xerox technology team to evaluate client‘s current business processes, however big or small they are. Xerox then works with the client to document the workflow and build the bots to automate key processes.
“When people think about Xerox, traditionally they think about print and we have evolved to be so much more than that,” Collins Smee said.

Xerox secures $24 billion financing for proposed HP takeover
Xerox secures $24 billion financing for proposed HP takeover
(Reuters) - Xerox Holdings Corp said on Monday it has secured $24 billion in financing for its $33.5 billion takeover offer for HP Inc, a deal that the personal computer maker is opposing.
HP rejected the $22 per share offer in November saying it "significantly" undervalued the company, following which the printer maker took the offer directly to HP's shareholders.
Xerox has engaged in "constructive dialogue" with many of HP's largest shareholders, the company's chief executive officer, John Visentin, said in a letter addressed to HP's board on Monday.
"My offer stands to meet with you in person, with or without your advisors, to begin negotiating this transaction," Visentin said.
Activist investor Carl Icahn, who has a 4.2% stake in HP and a 10.9% stake in Xerox, in December urged HP shareholders who agreed with a merger with Xerox to reach out to the PC maker's directors for immediate action.
HP has said it will agree to a deal that involves the computer maker becoming the acquirer of Xerox, stating that it recognizes the potential benefits of consolidation.
Shares of HP were up nearly 2% in trading before the bell. The company did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Xerox Woos HP Holders With $1.5 Billion Sales Growth Target
Scott Deveau,Bloomberg•December 9, 2019
(Bloomberg) -- Xerox Holdings Corp. believes its proposed HP Inc. takeover would create as much as $1.5 billion in potential revenue growth, according a presentation to HP’s shareholders made public Monday.
The printer maker outlined its case for a tie-up between the companies, arguing the combined firm will be worth about $31 a share to HP investors on a pro-forma basis. The merged entity will generate more than $4 billion in free cash flow in the first year before taking any synergies into account, according to the presentation, confirming a report in Bloomberg News.
“The value of the transaction goes beyond economics. In consolidating industries, first movers not only win but also have an opportunity to reshape the competitive landscape in an enduring way,” John Visentin, Xerox’s chief executive officer, said in the presentation.

(Bloomberg) -- Xerox Corp. is the newest addition to the set of companies downgraded to junk from investment grade.
After being downgraded by Fitch Ratings in August, Moody’s Investors Service followed suit Friday, citing an uncertain revenue base amid a decline in demand for copy and printing services as well as intense global competition.
The company is also on review for a downgrade by S&P Global Ratings, with their watch period ending within the next 10 days.
The company’s notes due in 2021 widened 56 basis points to 300 above Treasuries in Friday’s session, according to Trace price data, and were the most active in the investment-grade market. The cost to protect against losses on Xerox debt also jumped, reaching the highest level since 2009. Credit-default swaps on the company widened 33 basis points to 349, data from CMA show.
Investors are worried about a flood of “fallen angels,” or investment-grade credits that fall into junk. There are concerns that a number of BBB rated companies, the lowest-rated rung of the high-grade space, may become subject to downgrades when the cycle turns as several have spent much of the last decade issuing debt to take advantage of low borrowing costs.
In October, Bloomberg Intelligence analysts Robert Schiffman and Mike Campellone cited concerns over secular declines and execution challenges at Xerox that were unlikely to dissipate in the near-term. “Ratings pressure is likely to persist, with additional non-investment grade risk growing each quarter,” they said.
