Hewlett Packard Enterprise Names New CFO as Antonio Neri Prepares to Depart

Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. reported the election of a new principal financial officer and the departure of its chief executive officer, Antonio Neri, according to an 8-K filed with the SEC on June 1, 2026.

The filing discloses both an Item 5.02 departure or election of directors or principal officers and an Item 2.02 results of operations and financial condition. It also reports entry into a material definitive agreement under Item 1.01, Regulation FD disclosure under Item 7.01, and exhibits under Item 9.01.

Neri’s departure as president and chief executive officer becomes effective June 1, 2026. The filing states the separation is not the result of any disagreement with the company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices. The company simultaneously announced the appointment of a successor chief financial officer whose identity and effective date are detailed in the exhibits attached to the filing.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise, which had 62,000 employees and generated $30.0 billion in fiscal 2025 revenue according to its most recent annual report, will now operate with a new finance chief responsible for all financial reporting, treasury, tax, investor relations and internal controls.

The transition triggers mandatory updates to the company’s next Form 10-Q and 10-K filings, revised executive-compensation tables in its proxy statement, and a new Section 16 ownership filing for the incoming officer within two business days.

Downstream, the company must furnish any related separation agreement or offer letter as an exhibit in a subsequent 8-K or 10-Q. The Compensation Committee of the board will be required to approve new equity grants or severance arrangements for both the departing CEO and incoming CFO, actions that must be disclosed within four business days under Item 5.02.

The material definitive agreement reported under Item 1.01 will also require the company to meet specific contractual milestones or regulatory approvals by dates stipulated in that contract.

This marks the first CEO transition at Hewlett Packard Enterprise since Antonio Neri assumed the role in 2018 following the company’s separation from HP Inc. The filing is the third Item 5.02 executive change the company has reported in the past 24 months.
