HP without printing: What are they thinking?

September 1, 2011

Analysis of:HP could sell printing division within two years, reports claim | www.printweek.com

Spurred by recent surprising developments and announcements at HP, an M&A intelligence firm predicts that HP could consider divesting the entire printing division.

What is Xerox Becoming?

June 22, 2011

Analysis of:Xerox Chief Looks Beyond Photocopiers Toward Services | online.wsj.com

Historically, Xerox was a (the) copier company: copiers were the products, the business model and the overall corporate identity. As the world went digital, so did Xerox, rebranding themselves as "the document company." Now, Xerox is moving beyond the document into the broader business of technology-led services. This re-rebranding will certainly influence their offerings and approach to market and present certain challenges for understanding the Xerox business model and future prospects.

April 26, 2011

Analysis of:Lexmark: Is It Finally Game Over? | akbaspost.blogspot.com

Lexmark has missed the boat on many fronts; The office products industry has been consolidating rapidly due to oversupply of commodity products offered at incredibly low prices particularly in the low to medium segment. Lexmark does’t have deep financial pockets, secured customer access in new markets particularly in non-US and emerging economies, a credible footprint of managed print services capabilities and captive channels of distribution.
