Cisco • April 12: Cisco kills the Flip line of portable video recorders • Cutting 550 jobs (<1% of total) • Refocusing on switching business • Flip previously posted <1% of total sales • Originally purchased for $590M in 2009
Cisco • Key Goal: shore up main business operations (routers and switches) • “Cisco needs to choose between protecting share or preserving margins” • Typically took 70 to 80% margins, compared to competitors (IBM, ORCL, HPQ) which take 40% margins • Beginning to lose market share to smaller competitors, margin has decreased to 64% in FY 2010
Cisco • Consensus: • Refocusing on core business is a positive • Company can leverage its dominance to counteract decreasing trend in market share • Axing the Flip business is a “drop in the bucket” • More changes are required, but more changes are expected • Uptick in IT spending in 2011 will still represent a positive factor despite losses in market share
