‘You need to have a core foundation which is networking,’ said HPE CEO Antonio Neri. ‘Obviously you are going to see everything we have done with the team with HPE Aruba networking. And obviously we continue to be very excited to close with Juniper Networks once we get through the final hurdle in the United States.’

Divestment of whole business group is not a small requirement.
Seems a few people here don’t know what they are talking about. What a surprise. DOJ has approved the merger with a few small requirements.
Throwin all my loot on DOJ.
Who cares now...
If it goes through it doesn't matter. Name one acquisition HP/HPe has brokered that made a difference in company performance? HPe management is super great at destroying the companies that they acquire!
Neri is deluding himself. DOJ doesn’t pick a fight it can’t win.
70-30 odds based on other failed acquisitions in recent years. DOJ doesn't often lose the appeal.
