Description of Business
Currently, Xerox Holdings' primary direct operating subsidiary is Xerox and therefore Xerox represents nearly all of Xerox Holdings' operations. Xerox is a workplace technology company, building and integrating services-led, software-enabled, workplace solutions for enterprises large and small. As customers seek to manage information and document workflows across digital and physical platforms, we deliver a seamless, secure, and sustainable experience. We provide advanced document technology, services, software, and integrated IT infrastructure solutions for a range of customers including small and mid-sized businesses, large enterprises, governments and graphic communications providers, and for our partners who serve them. Xerox serves customers globally in North America, Europe, Latin America, Brazil, Asia Pacific (APAC), the Middle East, Africa, and India.
Xerox Holdings' other direct subsidiary, Xerox Ventures LLC, which was established solely to invest in startups and early/mid-stage growth companies aligned with the Company’s innovation focus areas and targeted adjacencies. In January 2024, Myriad Ventures Fund I LP (Myriad) was established, and the investments held by Xerox Ventures LLC were transferred to Myriad, which will continue to be fully consolidated by Xerox Holdings. The investments are primarily equity or equity-linked and for less than 20% ownership. Since the investments normally do not have readily determinable fair values, they are accounted for under the measurement alternative per ASC Topic 321-10-35-2. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, Xerox's investment in Myriad was $41 and $40, respectively.
Basis of Consolidation
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in business entities in which we do not have control, but we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies (generally 20% to 50% ownership) are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Operating results of acquired businesses are included in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income from the date of acquisition.
We consolidate variable interest entities if we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the entity. Operating results for variable interest entities in which we are determined to be the primary beneficiary are included in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income from the date such determination is made.
The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Currently, we are not aware of any other trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way that will impact our capital needs during or beyond the next 12 months.
Our liquidity is primarily dependent on our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations. Additional liquidity is also provided through access to the financial capital markets and a committed asset-based revolving credit agreement (the ABL Facility), as well as the sales and assignment of finance lease receivables. Our access to financial capital markets may be limited from time to time due to a number of factors, including our credit ratings, the level of our outstanding indebtedness, and prevailing market conditions, including the trading levels of our existing debt securities. Based on our current level of operations, we do not expect our near term liquidity needs to be dependent on access to the financial capital markets and we believe that our available sources will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, our accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. Our estimates are based on management's best available information including current events, historical experience, actions that the Company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. As a result, actual results may be different from these estimates.
In the ordinary course of accounting for the items discussed above, we make changes in estimates as appropriate and as we become aware of new or revised circumstances surrounding those estimates. Such changes and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations in the period in which the changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Lexmark Acquisition
On July 1, 2025, Xerox Corporation completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity of Lexmark International II, LLC (Lexmark) from Ninestar Group Company Limited (the Seller) (the Lexmark Acquisition). Refer to Note 6 - Acquisition and Divestitures for additional information.
Segments
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company updated its determination of reportable segments to align with a change in how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), allocates resources and assesses performance against the Company’s key growth strategies. As such, it was determined that there are two reportable segments - Print and Other, and IT Solutions. Prior to this change, the Company had two reportable segments - Print and Other, and Xerox Financial Services (XFS). As a result of this change, prior period reportable segment results and related disclosures have been conformed to reflect the Company’s current reportable segments. Refer to Note 4 - Segment and Geographic Area Reporting for additional information regarding this change.
In connection with these changes to our reportable segments, certain reclassifications were made to the Consolidated Statements of (Loss) Income as follows:
