DXC closed 14.71 USD 14th April. It's come a long way since Sept 2018. Not much left to go to crash and burn. On current valuations that makes each of us worth around $20K USD (£15k GBP). Bargain price for such talent. We might even be inclined to do some real work if we had a company behind us that rewarded success and came with a DOGE like focus on officialdom.

The stock is just as likely to be worthless. Everything fails in IT. Just a question of when.

The stocks are going to go up and reach 50 plus! Buy when it is low.

Under $3billion Market Cap. The shareholders are getting smashed to $16, surprised that a activist investor hasn't come in and changed things.

When are those useless middle managers being chopped, total waste of space, only know cutting. You can't say your growing the company after 7 years of decline.

And those at the top should be taking big pay cuts, they can no longer justify those massive packages without delivering growth.

I have to sell all my options - but unfortunately all of them are not vested yet. Now I am busy collecting shares in my new co.

Theres too many management layers, if they clear down 2 to 3 layers the company will be much more efficient and run much better.

Its not rocket science, easy fix.

@ax+1jpt7dr3t DXC was 100% in the right to turn down both of those offers. The Atos one would've been a complete disaster given that they're now bankrubt. That deal would've almost certainly fallen apart. On the other $10 Billion offer we don't know the exact details but iirc DXC said that the financing of the deal "lacked certainty". Given that rates where indeed hiked I think that this was probably correct. Interms of your comments about share price falling since 2020 this is true although it's not really a good in dicator of what the stock will do in the future. Domino's Pizza had a few years of abysmal preformance untill it was turned around and that stock could've easily made you a multimillionaire. Not saying that's going to happen here but poor preformance of the stock price shouldn't necessarily be a deterrent.

@aw+1jpt7dr3t Even so Doge spending cuts have no effect on the current buisness because there is none. Yes they are targeting goverment work with the new Fed and CIA COO's but Doge making this strategy more difficult is really negligible to DXC.

@av+1jpt7dr3t I'm no so sure BAE is as lucrative as you say it is. Multiple users here have said that Bae was used to pad revenue and that the margin was actually not very good. Furthermore DXC is retaining the hosting portion of that contract.

with a share price exactly where it was in July 2020 why would you buy now when the share price is likely to not change for the next 4-5 years UNLESS its bought out and broken up so the small pieces that are of value (and referenced in earlier posts) can be spun off. However DXC has turned down at least 2 x $10B offers with a current market cap of $3B so this board don't seem inclined to try and realise any residual value.
For reference Accenture was about $200 in July 2020 and is now $300, Kyndryl don't go back to July 2020, but since March 2022 ($12) they are now $34. Far better large scale IT service providers to invest in.

"DXC doesn't have any Federal Goverment contracts. That buisness was sold and eventually became Perspecta."

But DXC is about to get back into Fed pork barrel...

DXC Technology is currently facing layoffs due to various financial challenges and restructuring efforts. The company is set to lose its lucrative contract with BAe, which has led to job reductions, particularly in its UK subsidiary. While layoffs may help reduce costs in the short term, they raise concerns about the company's long-term growth potential. The future of layoffs at DXC remains uncertain, influenced by market conditions and strategic changes within the company.

YTF stock is down 14+% . 1 year down 16% 3 years down 48% so NO wouldn't purchase!

Yes, I am. The company is trading at book value which is sort of unjustified considering they're profitable and generating free cash flow. There is no risk of bankrubtcy for the foreseeable future. By buisness segment GIS is probably worth about book since it has shrinking sales, but GBS is worth a lot more. Luxoft was bought by DXC for $2 Billion. If it had continued as a public company it'd probably be worth $5 Billion today given how much asset prices went up durring the pandemic and the fact that we know from Loschinin's statements that Luxoft has grown since then. Insurance is also worth a nice chunk of change it's doing about $1.5 Billion in sales and is growing at 5% YoY. Verisk which is a somewhat similar competitor it does $2.6 Billion in sales and its market cap is 14x that ($40 Billion). Now obviously DXC insurance isn't worth the same sales multiple but for arguments sake let's say it's worth about 2x sales. That gets you to roughly $3 Billion. So between insurance and luxoft you've got about a $8 Billion valuation for GBS and frankly that's probably conservative.

Trump and DOGE want the likes of DXC out of US contracts. We make it very easy for them to exit the contract early.

Wait until the crash in May after the fiscal results. Sell at profit within 5-6 months. Rinse and repeat.

There's no way I'd invest in DXC knowing how badly the company is managed, and thought of by it's staff. It's a big enough risk just working for them. Put your eggs in another basket. Diversify.
