Xerox outlines three-year strategy at Investor Day

John Visentin, CEO, Xerox

“With a history of designing breakthrough technologies, Xerox is ‘made to think.’ We are taking a disciplined approach to creating the next generation of innovative technologies and intelligent work solutions to meet our clients’ evolving needs,” said John Visentin, vice chairman and CEO, Xerox.

“By simplifying our operations, instilling a culture of continuous improvement, investing in growth areas and capitalizing on new and adjacent market opportunities, we anticipate that we can achieve flat to growing revenue by 2021, while driving continued annual adjusted earnings per share expansion, including at least $4.00 of adjusted earnings per share in 2020, and delivering over $3 billion of cumulative free cash flow over the next three years,” Visentin added.

The event includes:

  • Review of Xerox’s financial plans and three-year roadmap highlighting:
    • Expected annual improvements in its revenue trajectory that result in flat to growing revenue by 2021;
    • Expected adjusted operating margin expansion of more than 200 basis points over the next three years;
    • Expected adjusted EPS expansion of at least 7 percent annually, including at least $4.00 of adjusted EPS in 2020;
    • Expected cumulative free cash flow in excess of $3 billion over the next three years; and
    • Delivering greater than 50 percent of free cash flow back to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases in each of the next three years.
  • A detailed review of Project Own It, the company’s enterprise-wide transformation program to simplify its business and drive greater operational efficiency while establishing a culture of continuous improvement. Project Own It is expected to generate:
    • An increasingly frictionless, high-velocity business for clients;
    • More significant investments, including funding of longer-term innovation, to support the company’s revenue roadmap; and
    • Bottom-line annual profit growth.
