Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Dell Technologies is a leader in the global technology industry that designs, develops, manufactures, markets, sells, and supports a wide range of comprehensive and integrated solutions, products, and services. Dell Technologies offerings include servers and networking, storage, cloud solutions, desktops, notebooks, services, software, branded peripherals, and third-party software and peripherals. References in these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to the “Company” or “Dell Technologies” mean Dell Technologies Inc. individually and together with its consolidated subsidiaries. Basis of Presentation — The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company as of May 2, 2025 and January 31, 2025 and the results of its operations, corresponding comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the three months ended May 2, 2025 and May 3, 2024. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The results of its operations, corresponding comprehensive income, and changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the three months ended May 2, 2025 and May 3, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or for any other fiscal period. The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the Friday nearest January 31. Both the fiscal year ending January 30, 2026 (“Fiscal 2026”) and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025 (“Fiscal 2025”) are 52-week periods. Principles of Consolidation — These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Dell Technologies Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as well as the accounts of SecureWorks Corp. (“Secureworks”), which was majority-owned by Dell Technologies, through the date of the sale of Secureworks as discussed below. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company also consolidates Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") where it has been determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the applicable entities’ operations. For each VIE, the primary beneficiary is the party that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to such VIE. In evaluating whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of each entity, the Company evaluates its power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE by considering the purpose and design of each entity and the risks each entity was designed to create and pass through to its respective variable interest holders. The Company also evaluates its economic interests in each of the VIEs. See Note 4 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding consolidated VIEs. Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements — As previously reported, during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the Company discovered accumulated credits from certain suppliers that were not recorded or not recorded in the correct period in its previously reported financial results. The Company initiated an investigation that indicated that the credits resulted from the actions of certain procurement employees that support a limited number of suppliers, which affected the Client Solutions Group segment. The revision did not have an impact on the Company’s net revenue. The Company determined that the impacts were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to its previously issued Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for any of the prior quarters or the annual period in which they occurred. However, in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 of the SEC, the Company concluded that correcting the cumulative misstatement would have been material to its results of operations for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. Accordingly, as described in Note 1 and Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the Company has revised its previously issued Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as applicable, as of and for the three months ended May 3, 2024. A summary of the corrections to the impacted financial statement line items to the Company’s previously issued Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is presented in Note 17 of these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Secureworks — On February 3, 2025, the sale of Secureworks to Sophos Inc., an affiliate of Thoma Bravo, L.P., was completed in an all-cash transaction for a purchase price of approximately $0.9 billion. The Company received total cash consideration for the equity interest held in Secureworks of approximately $0.6 billion, resulting in a gain on sale recorded of $0.2 billion recognized in interest and other, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended May 2, 2025. Prior to the sale, Secureworks’ operating results were included within Corporate and other and did not qualify for presentation as a discontinued operation. Additionally, the Company reclassified Secureworks’ assets and liabilities as current assets held for sale and current liabilities held for sale in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of January 31, 2025. The Company previously held approximately 78.6% of the outstanding equity interest in Secureworks as of January 31, 2025. The portion of the results of operations of Secureworks allocable to its other owners was shown as net loss attributable to non-controlling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, as an adjustment to net income attributable to Dell Technologies stockholders. The non-controlling interests’ share of equity in Secureworks was reflected as non-controlling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and was $95 million as of January 31, 2025. Related Party Transactions — The Company enters into purchase and sales transactions with other publicly-traded and privately-held companies, as well as not-for-profit organizations, that could be influenced by members of the Company’s board of directors, executive officers, or significant stockholders. The Company enters into these arrangements in the ordinary course of its business. Transactions with related parties were immaterial for the three months ended May 2, 2025 and May 3, 2024. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Expense Disaggregation Disclosures — In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to improve disclosures about a public entity’s expenses by requiring disclosure of additional information about the types of expenses commonly presented in the financial statements on an annual and interim basis. Public entities must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Adoption of this new guidance will result in increased disclosures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Income Taxes — In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance which requires companies to provide disaggregated income tax disclosures within the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. Public entities must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the guidance prospectively. Adoption of this new guidance will result in increased disclosures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
