@ax if you say so, Mr. IBM India HR Clown
Clowns doing clownish things….
Debt headlines without context are misleading. IBM has consistently managed its capital structure while investing in growth areas like AI and hybrid cloud, and under CFO Jim Kavanaugh the company maintains a strong balance sheet, solid cash flow, and disciplined financial strategy
@as Sounds like it's time for Burn Baby Burn....couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of corrupt IBM executives.
@A9. If you read the 2026 1st q earnings announcement. Yes it’s confirmed. IBM opted to take on debt to acquire Confluent vs just paying cash. Yes they have a total of 66 billion in debt, BUT they have almost 11 billion of cash on hand
Holy sh-t is that confirmed?
