The CEO of Dell Company, Mr. Michael Dell wants his share holders to know how he has saved the company alone, which he found after struggling to maintain a market against the arrival of low cost mobile devices. During the June 21st presentation to the investors, the company has put forth what it believes to attain the long term success. This includes a shift from consumers to enterprise, if the company remains public.
One can look out for more evidence in the most recent quarterly results. In Q1 2013, Dell has its earnings dropped mere to 2 % though the revenues fell 79% vs. the prior year. Dell claimed at that time, that they are on a way to help the enterprise solution division which is more needed. According to him, “Full implementation of the steps needed to position the Company for the long term is likely to have an even greater negative impact on earnings in the near term than what we have already seen.”
Dell has understood that its shareholders are not ready to tolerate the disappointing earnings, and this would ruin the company’s long term prospects. Dell is hoping that it will receive a extra support before their 18th investor meeting. If this doesn’t happen, he might still stand behind as the CEO of the PC maker.
Michael Dell said, “I founded the company and will continue, as I have for the last 29 years, to try to make Dell the best company I can, I will also oppose the kind of imprudent leveraged recapitalization that has been suggested by certain other parties.”
