Michael Dell plots his return to the public market

The largest private tech firm has an updated vision for computing’s future

Dec 6th 2018 | ROUND ROCK AND PALO ALTO

There are two ways to make money selling technology, goes an old industry saying: unbundling and bundling. Thanks to the spectacular rise in recent years of cloud-computing services from Amazon and Microsoft, many firms have shifted chunks of software, data and applications previously stored on in-house servers to the new “public cloud” infrastructure. Customers can now access a dizzying array of software and hardware offered as unbundled, cloud-based services.

Dizzying—but also bewildering. The typical chief technology officer (CTO) of a big firm, under pressure to take advantage of every computing advance from data-analytics to artificial intelligence to the internet of things (IoT), is faced with a mish-mash of information-technology options. The next big opportunity should therefore lie in simplifying this balkanised mess.

That insight lies at the heart of Michael Dell’s vision for the future of Dell Technologies, a giant it firm based in Texas. The billionaire founded Dell in his college dorm room at the University of Texas in 1984 and by the age of 27 he became the youngest-ever boss of a Fortune 500 company (Mark Zuckerberg was nearly 29 when Facebook first made the list, in 2013). Mr Dell revolutionised the business of personal computers (PCS) by selling directly to customers, adopting just-in-time manufacturing and lean, global supply chains that undercut rivals.

Now Mr Dell is pushing forward his next revolution. He is trying to save the ageing PC manufacturer from commoditisation by dramatically expanding its software and cloud offerings. He took Dell private in 2013 helped by Silver Lake Partners, a Californian private-equity firm, in a deal worth $24.4bn. At the time, Dell’s revenues and profits were tumbling as the PC market was squeezed by the rise of mobile devices and low-cost Asian manufacturers. Its prospects were rapidly darkening.

Away from the scrutiny of public markets, Mr Dell invested heavily ($13.6bn in research and development since 2013) to strengthen Dell’s capabilities in cutting-edge software and cloud integration. He pulled off the largest-ever tech acquisition, gobbling up EMC, a big American provider of data-storage devices and cloud-computing software, for $67bn in 2016.

Very few firms have been able to pull off a corporate transformation, says Michael Cusumano of the MIT Sloan School of Management, but he thinks Mr Dell’s labours are starting to produce results. As a result of both ongoing investment and accounting charges related to the purchase of EMC, Dell continues to make losses (see chart) but its growth engine is at last fired up. On November 29th its quarterly results included a surge in revenues of 15%. The firm’s cashflow from operations leapt from $2.4bn in the fiscal year ending in February 2017 to $7.7bn in the four quarters to November 2nd 2018; losses fell.

On its current trajectory, Dell looks set to achieve annual revenues this year of just over $90bn, up from roughly $80bn last year. Dell’s hope is that its investments in cloud computing and software, which offer far higher margins than the PC business, will soon return it to profitability.

A good example is Dell’s crown jewel: VMware, a pioneer in virtualisation software, which allows software to run on multiple machines seamlessly. It is a publicly traded and profitable entity with a hip campus in Palo Alto, California. Since Dell got hold of most of VMware through the EMC acquisition, investors have been able to own a piece of Dell itself through DVMT, a special tracking stock that is meant to reflect Dell’s ownership stake in VMware.

Soon they should be able to buy into all of Dell directly. Shareholders will gather on December 11th in Round Rock, Texas, at Dell’s unpretentious headquarters, to vote on a complex proposal that would allow the firm to pull off something resembling a reverse merger (the acquisition of a listed firm by a privately held one that is keen to go public without the hassle of a conventional initial public offering).

This plan, announced in July, involves converting DVMT shares into new Dell shares to be publicly traded. DVMT investors could accept the new Dell shares at a given conversion ratio or cash out (though a cap on cash available means those choosing the latter may have to receive a mix). VMware said then that it would pay out a special one-time dividend of $11bn, with Dell to use its share of the dividend (about $9bn) to help fund the transaction. In an initial proposal, Mr Dell and Silver Lake offered a deal that implied a value for DVMT of about $22bn, including $9bn in cash.

After noisy objections from Carl Icahn, an activist investor (who also made trouble back in 2013 about the price at which Dell went private), they revised the terms last month to reflect a value of some $24bn for DVMT, some $14bn of it in cash. If the resolution passes, as expected, Dell will soon trade on the New York Stock Exchange.

The real challenge begins after the vote. Mr Dell’s plan to emphasise software in future contains three bets. The first is to be the best all-in-one provider of bundled IT. That may not be easy. Norman White of the NYU Stern School of Business observes that combining a commoditised hardware business with an innovative software business is particularly hard to do. And IBM’s $34bn acquisition in October of Red Hat, a provider of open-source software, which it plans to sell alongside hardware, could make Big Blue a potent rival.

Still, Dell’s transformation is welcomed by many beleaguered IT managers. The chief information officer of a big British bank that spends over $50m a year on Dell kit says he values its ability to provide “converged infrastructure” that bundles multiple IT components such as servers, data-storage units, networking switches and the software to make all this gear work together, into a single package. Cheekily, Mr Dell promises customers to be the “one throat to choke” in case things go awry.

Mr Dell’s second big bet is on the rise of a “hybrid” cloud which allows customers to blend their out-of-house and in-house IT. Companies are growing nervous about putting all of their sensitive customer and business data on third-party clouds. Lonne Jaffe, a former IBM man now at Insight, a venture-capital company, insists that hybrid clouds are the future.

The public cloud promoted by Amazon and Microsoft will remain a force to reckon with. Dell cannot invest as much in innovation, and is sure to face ruthless price competition from Amazon. Still, Dell may be catching a wave big enough to carry several firms. Last year Gartner, a consultancy, predicted a “massive shift toward hybrid infrastructure”, with 90% of companies using hybrid clouds by 2020.

A third bet is on “edge” computing. As countries roll out 5G networks and firms put smart sensors into everything, the IoT should arrive. Mr Dell says it will make demands that the public cloud cannot satisfy. If an autonomous vehicle (AV) senses it is about to hit a deer on a country road, he asks, must it wait for software housed in a distant public cloud to give it permission to stop? It is an unlikely scenario but one Dell is using to promote its IoT division.

One of Dell’s big customers says the answer is obvious. “Decisions must be taken absolutely in real time, a car is a data centre on wheels,” says Simon Bolton, chief information officer of Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), an Indian-owned carmaker. The answer is edge computing, which allows the car to have a lot of computing power in the boot. JLR has long used Dell desktop computers, EMC storage devices and VM ware software. Now it is using other bits of the firm’s kit (cyber-security software, for example) as it develops edge-computing systems.

Last year, Dell created a new division devoted to the IoT. It has promised to invest $1bn in research and development over three years. Its venture-capital arm has invested in Graphcore, a British startup developing AI process super-fast chip, which enjoys very low latency (the time it takes for data to get to their destination), is ideal for use in AVs. Graphcore is bringing these AI chips to market by putting them into Dell hardware, which the latter’s legions of salesmen will promote to big corporate customers normally out of a startup’s reach.

In the end, the success of Dell’s new strategies depends greatly on the person at the top. Sceptics wonder if he is yesterday’s man. Others worry that his firm’s recent growth spurt may be unsustainable, and question how long it will take for him to return the firm to profitability. It remains to be seen if he can blend the aggressive sales culture at Round Rock with a softer, innovation-focused ethos in Palo Alto.

Mr Dell is confident that his bets will pay off. He notes that a public listing would “absolutely give us an acquisition currency,” one that he intends to put to use as Dell shoots toward $100bn in annual revenues. He has managed to defy naysayers in the past. In 2015, Meg Whitman, then the boss of HP Enterprise, a rival IT firm, predicted that the takeover of EMC would prove an “enormous distraction” to Dell. In a headline the same year, Wired, a magazine, said the PC was dead and not coming back—Dell’s PC sales have been rising. Accepting the scrutiny of Wall Street again will doubtless mean plenty more such provocations. Over to you, Mr Dell.
