                          <p><strong>HOUSTON, Texas and SUNNYVALE, California </strong>–<strong> January 9, 2024 </strong>– <a href="https://www.hpe.com/us/en/home.html" target="_blank">Hewlett Packard Enterprise</a> (NYSE: HPE) and Juniper Networks,
                            Inc. (NYSE: JNPR), a leader in AI-native networks, today announced that the companies have entered a definitive agreement under which HPE will acquire Juniper in an all-cash transaction for $40.00 per share, representing
                            an equity value of approximately $14 billion. <br><br> The combination of HPE and Juniper advances HPE’s portfolio mix shift toward higher-growth solutions and strengthens its high-margin networking business, accelerating
                            HPE’s sustainable profitable growth strategy. The transaction is expected to be accretive to non-GAAP EPS and free cash flow in the first year post close.</p>
                          <p>The acquisition is expected to double HPE’s networking business, creating a new networking leader with a comprehensive portfolio that presents customers and partners with a compelling new choice to drive business value.
                            The explosion of AI and hybrid cloud-driven business is accelerating demand for secure, unified technology solutions that connect, protect, and analyze companies’ data from edge to cloud. These trends, and AI specifically,
                            will continue to be the most disruptive workloads for companies, and HPE has been aligning its portfolio to capitalize on these substantial IT trends with networking as a critical connective component. <br><br> Combining
                            HPE and Juniper’s complementary portfolios supercharges HPE’s edge-to-cloud strategy with an ability to lead in an AI-native environment based on a foundational cloud-native architecture. Together, HPE and Juniper will
                            provide customers of all sizes with a complete, secure portfolio that enables the networking architecture necessary to manage and simplify their expanding and increasingly complex connectivity needs. Leveraging
                            industry-leading AI, the combined company is expected to create better user and operator experiences, benefitting customers’ high-performance networks and cloud data centers.</p>
                          <p>Through its suite of cloud-delivered networking solutions, software, and services including the Mist AI and Cloud platform, Juniper helps organizations securely and efficiently access the mission-critical cloud
                            infrastructure that serves as the foundation of digital and AI strategies. The combination with HPE Aruba Networking and purposely designed HPE AI interconnect fabric will bring together enterprise reach, and cloud-native
                            and AI-native management and control, to create a premier industry player that will accelerate innovation to deliver further modernized networking optimized for hybrid cloud and AI.</p>
                          <p>Upon completion of the transaction, Juniper CEO Rami Rahim will lead the combined HPE networking business, reporting to HPE President and CEO Antonio Neri.</p>
                          <p>“HPE’s acquisition of Juniper represents an important inflection point in the industry and will change the dynamics in the networking market and provide customers and partners with a new alternative that meets their
                            toughest demands,” said Neri. “This transaction will strengthen HPE’s position at the nexus of accelerating macro-AI trends, expand our total addressable market, and drive further innovation for customers as we help bridge
                            the AI-native and cloud-native worlds, while also generating significant value for shareholders. I am excited to welcome Juniper’s talented employees to our team as we bring together two companies with complementary
                            portfolios and proven track records of driving innovation within the industry.”</p>
                          <p>“Our multi-year focus on innovative secure AI-native solutions has driven Juniper Networks’ outstanding performance,” said Rami Rahim, CEO of Juniper Networks. “We have successfully delivered exceptional user experiences
                            and simplified operations, and by joining HPE, I believe we can accelerate the next phase of our journey. In addition, this combination maximizes value for our shareholders through a meaningful all-cash premium. We look
                            forward to working with the talented HPE team to drive innovation for enterprise, service provider and cloud customers across all domains, including campus, branch, data center and the wide area network.”</p>
                          <p><strong>Compelling Strategic Benefits</strong></p>
                          <ul>
                            <li><strong>Compelling pro forma financial profile. </strong>In addition to the expected non-GAAP accretion, the combined company is expected to have attractive top- and bottom-line growth opportunities immediately and in
                              the long term.</li>
                            <li><strong>Positions HPE for long-term growth for shareholders and greater investment capacity. </strong>With Juniper, HPE’s portfolio will be weighted toward higher-growth, higher-margin businesses with large free cash
                              flow potential, positioning HPE to enhance shareholder return and enabling additional investments in high-growth areas, such as AI and cloud. On a pro forma basis, the new networking segment will increase from
                              approximately 18% of total HPE revenue as of fiscal year 2023 to approximately 31% and contribute more than 56%<sup>1,</sup> of HPE’s total operating income.</li>
                            <li><strong>Complementary capabilities to deliver next-generation AI-native networking and enable new digital experiences through secure, intelligent connectivity. </strong>Networking will become the new core business and
                              architecture foundation for HPE’s Hybrid Cloud and AI solutions delivered through our HPE GreenLake hybrid cloud platform. The combined company will offer secure, end-to-end AI-native solutions that are built on the
                              foundation of cloud, high performance, and experience-first, and will also have the ability to collect, analyze, and act on aggregated telemetry across a broader installed base. This will drive even better end-user
                              experiences and streamlined network operations for our customers.</li>
                            <li><strong>Accelerates HPE’s strategic evolution and expands total addressable market.</strong> The acquisition increases the scope of HPE’s networking business and will create meaningful opportunities to provide even
                              more comprehensive solutions to Juniper’s installed base of enterprise customers, communication service providers and tier-one cloud customers, as well as launches HPE into adjacent large segments, including data center
                              networking, firewalls, and routers. It also grows Juniper’s footprint in data centers and cloud providers.</li>
                          </ul>
                          <p><strong>Transaction Details and Approvals</strong></p>
                          <p>Under the terms of the agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of HPE and Juniper, Juniper shareholders will receive $40.00 per share in cash upon the completion of the transaction. The
                            purchase price represents a premium of approximately 32% to the unaffected closing price of Juniper’s common stock on January 8, 2024, the last full trading day prior to media reports regarding a possible transaction. </p>
                          <p>The transaction is expected to be funded based on financing commitments for $14 billion in term loans. Such financing will ultimately be replaced, in part, with a combination of new debt, mandatory convertible preferred
                            securities, and cash on the balance sheet. The transaction is currently expected to close in late calendar year 2024 or early calendar year 2025, subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, approval of the transaction by
                            Juniper shareholders, and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.</p>
                          <p>The combination is expected to achieve operating efficiencies and run-rate annual cost synergies of $450 million within 36 months post close. Strong growth in free cash flow, along with maintenance of capital allocation
                            policies, are expected to provide sufficient room to reduce leverage to approximately 2x in two years post close. Following the completion of the transaction, HPE will continue its innovation and go-to-market investments
                            in its networking business, one of its growth engines.</p>

                          <p><strong>Forward-Looking Statements</strong></p>
                          <p>This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the
                            Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are based on Juniper’s and HPE’s current
                            expectations, estimates, projections, beliefs and assumptions made by Juniper and HPE, all of which are subject to change. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business, financial
                            performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “could,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “might,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,”
                            “expect,” “target,” and similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address
                            matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Juniper’s and HPE’s control, and are not guarantees of future results. These and other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results
                            and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on any such
                            statements, and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the proposed transaction on
                            anticipated terms and timing or at all, including obtaining stockholder and regulatory approvals and other conditions to the completion of the transaction; (ii) the ability of HPE to integrate and implement its plans,
                            forecasts and other expectations with respect to Juniper’s business after the completion of the proposed transaction and realize additional opportunities for growth and innovation; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change
                            or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; (iv) Juniper’s and HPE’s ability to implement their respective business strategies; (v) potential significant transaction
                            costs associated with the proposed transaction; (vi) the risks related to HPE’s financing of the proposed transaction, (vii) potential litigation or regulatory actions relating to the proposed transaction; (viii) the risk
                            that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm Juniper’s or HPE’s business, including current plans and operations, and risks related to diverting management’s attention from Juniper’s and HPE’s ongoing business
                            operations and relationships; (ix) the ability of Juniper and HPE to retain and hire key personnel; (x) potential adverse business uncertainty resulting from the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed
                            transaction, including restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact Juniper’s and HPE’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xi) legal, regulatory,
                            tax and economic developments affecting Juniper’s and HPE’s business; (xii) the unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism, outbreak of war or hostilities or
                            current or future pandemics or epidemics, as well as Juniper’s and HPE’s response to any of the aforementioned factors; and (xiii) other risks described in Juniper’s and HPE’s filings with the SEC, such risks and
                            uncertainties described under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of HPE’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, Juniper’s Annual Report on Form
                            10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings made by HPE or Juniper from time to time with the SEC. These risks should not be considered a
                            complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainty, and are discussed more fully, along with other risks associated with the proposed transaction, in the Proxy Statement (as defined below) to be filed with the SEC
                            in connection with the proposed transaction. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Juniper and HPE do not assume any obligation to publicly provide
                            revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable
                            laws.</p>

                          <p><strong>Participants in the Solicitation</strong></p>
                          <p>Juniper and certain of its directors, executive officers and other employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Juniper’s stockholders in connection with the proposed
                            transaction. Information regarding Juniper’s directors and executive officers, including a description of their direct interests, by security holdings or otherwise, is contained in Juniper’s proxy statement for its 2023

                            with the proposed transaction (if and when they become available). To the extent holdings of Juniper’s securities by its directors or executive officers have changed since the amounts set forth in the Annual Meeting Proxy
                            Statement, such changes have been or will be reflected on Initial Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Form 3 or Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC. Additional information regarding the
                            identity of potential participants, and their direct or indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise,will be included in the Proxy Statement relating to the proposed transaction when it is filed with the SEC.

01/09/2024
Download this Press ReleasePDF Format (opens in new window)

Highly complementary combination enhances secure, unified, cloud and AI-native
networking to drive innovation from edge to cloud to exascale

Accelerates long-term revenue growth and expands gross and operating margin;
Expected to be accretive to non-GAAP EPS and free cash flow in year 1, post
close

Advances HPE’s portfolio mix shift toward higher-growth solutions and
strengthens high-margin networking business

HOUSTON, Texas and SUNNYVALE, California – January 9, 2024 – Hewlett Packard
Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) and Juniper Networks, Inc. (NYSE: JNPR), a leader in
AI-native networks, today announced that the companies have entered a definitive
agreement under which HPE will acquire Juniper in an all-cash transaction for
$40.00 per share, representing an equity value of approximately $14 billion.

The combination of HPE and Juniper advances HPE’s portfolio mix shift toward
higher-growth solutions and strengthens its high-margin networking business,
accelerating HPE’s sustainable profitable growth strategy. The transaction is
expected to be accretive to non-GAAP EPS and free cash flow in the first year
post close.

The acquisition is expected to double HPE’s networking business, creating a new
networking leader with a comprehensive portfolio that presents customers and
partners with a compelling new choice to drive business value. The explosion of
AI and hybrid cloud-driven business is accelerating demand for secure, unified
technology solutions that connect, protect, and analyze companies’ data from
edge to cloud. These trends, and AI specifically, will continue to be the most
disruptive workloads for companies, and HPE has been aligning its portfolio to
capitalize on these substantial IT trends with networking as a critical
connective component.

Combining HPE and Juniper’s complementary portfolios supercharges HPE’s
edge-to-cloud strategy with an ability to lead in an AI-native environment based
on a foundational cloud-native architecture. Together, HPE and Juniper will
provide customers of all sizes with a complete, secure portfolio that enables
the networking architecture necessary to manage and simplify their expanding and
increasingly complex connectivity needs. Leveraging industry-leading AI, the
combined company is expected to create better user and operator experiences,
benefitting customers’ high-performance networks and cloud data centers.

Through its suite of cloud-delivered networking solutions, software, and
services including the Mist AI and Cloud platform, Juniper helps organizations
securely and efficiently access the mission-critical cloud infrastructure that
serves as the foundation of digital and AI strategies. The combination with HPE
Aruba Networking and purposely designed HPE AI interconnect fabric will bring
together enterprise reach, and cloud-native and AI-native management and
control, to create a premier industry player that will accelerate innovation to
deliver further modernized networking optimized for hybrid cloud and AI.

Upon completion of the transaction, Juniper CEO Rami Rahim will lead the
combined HPE networking business, reporting to HPE President and CEO Antonio
Neri.

“HPE’s acquisition of Juniper represents an important inflection point in the
industry and will change the dynamics in the networking market and provide
customers and partners with a new alternative that meets their toughest
demands,” said Neri. “This transaction will strengthen HPE’s position at the
nexus of accelerating macro-AI trends, expand our total addressable market, and
drive further innovation for customers as we help bridge the AI-native and
cloud-native worlds, while also generating significant value for shareholders. I
am excited to welcome Juniper’s talented employees to our team as we bring
together two companies with complementary portfolios and proven track records of
driving innovation within the industry.”

“Our multi-year focus on innovative secure AI-native solutions has driven
Juniper Networks’ outstanding performance,” said Rami Rahim, CEO of Juniper
Networks. “We have successfully delivered exceptional user experiences and
simplified operations, and by joining HPE, I believe we can accelerate the next
phase of our journey. In addition, this combination maximizes value for our
shareholders through a meaningful all-cash premium. We look forward to working
with the talented HPE team to drive innovation for enterprise, service provider
and cloud customers across all domains, including campus, branch, data center
and the wide area network.”

Compelling Strategic Benefits

 * Compelling pro forma financial profile. In addition to the expected non-GAAP
   accretion, the combined company is expected to have attractive top- and
   bottom-line growth opportunities immediately and in the long term.
 * Positions HPE for long-term growth for shareholders and greater investment
   capacity. With Juniper, HPE’s portfolio will be weighted toward
   higher-growth, higher-margin businesses with large free cash flow potential,
   positioning HPE to enhance shareholder return and enabling additional
   investments in high-growth areas, such as AI and cloud. On a pro forma basis,
   the new networking segment will increase from approximately 18% of total HPE
   revenue as of fiscal year 2023 to approximately 31% and contribute more than
   56%1, of HPE’s total operating income.
 * Complementary capabilities to deliver next-generation AI-native networking
   and enable new digital experiences through secure, intelligent connectivity.
   Networking will become the new core business and architecture foundation for
   HPE’s Hybrid Cloud and AI solutions delivered through our HPE GreenLake
   hybrid cloud platform. The combined company will offer secure, end-to-end
   AI-native solutions that are built on the foundation of cloud, high
   performance, and experience-first, and will also have the ability to collect,
   analyze, and act on aggregated telemetry across a broader installed base.
   This will drive even better end-user experiences and streamlined network
   operations for our customers.
 * Accelerates HPE’s strategic evolution and expands total addressable market.
   The acquisition increases the scope of HPE’s networking business and will
   create meaningful opportunities to provide even more comprehensive solutions
   to Juniper’s installed base of enterprise customers, communication service
   providers and tier-one cloud customers, as well as launches HPE into adjacent
   large segments, including data center networking, firewalls, and routers. It
   also grows Juniper’s footprint in data centers and cloud providers.

Transaction Details and Approvals

Under the terms of the agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the
Boards of Directors of HPE and Juniper, Juniper shareholders will receive $40.00
per share in cash upon the completion of the transaction. The purchase price
represents a premium of approximately 32% to the unaffected closing price of
Juniper’s common stock on January 8, 2024, the last full trading day prior to
media reports regarding a possible transaction.

The transaction is expected to be funded based on financing commitments for $14
billion in term loans. Such financing will ultimately be replaced, in part, with
a combination of new debt, mandatory convertible preferred securities, and cash
on the balance sheet. The transaction is currently expected to close in late
calendar year 2024 or early calendar year 2025, subject to receipt of regulatory
approvals, approval of the transaction by Juniper shareholders, and satisfaction
of other customary closing conditions.

The combination is expected to achieve operating efficiencies and run-rate
annual cost synergies of $450 million within 36 months post close. Strong growth
in free cash flow, along with maintenance of capital allocation policies, are
expected to provide sufficient room to reduce leverage to approximately 2x in
two years post close. Following the completion of the transaction, HPE will
continue its innovation and go-to-market investments in its networking business,
one of its growth engines.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Qatalyst Partners are serving as HPE’s financial

of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature
address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
Juniper’s and HPE’s control, and are not guarantees of future results. These and
other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are
subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements and
you should not place undue reliance on any such statements, and caution must be
exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that
may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion
of the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing or at all, including
obtaining stockholder and regulatory approvals and other conditions to the
completion of the transaction; (ii) the ability of HPE to integrate and
implement its plans, forecasts and other expectations with respect to Juniper’s
business after the completion of the proposed transaction and realize additional
opportunities for growth and innovation; (iii) the occurrence of any event,
change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the
termination of the merger agreement; (iv) Juniper’s and HPE’s ability to
implement their respective business strategies; (v) potential significant
transaction costs associated with the proposed transaction; (vi) the risks
related to HPE’s financing of the proposed transaction, (vii) potential
litigation or regulatory actions relating to the proposed transaction; (viii)
the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm Juniper’s or
HPE’s business, including current plans and operations, and risks related to
diverting management’s attention from Juniper’s and HPE’s ongoing business
operations and relationships; (ix) the ability of Juniper and HPE to retain and
hire key personnel; (x) potential adverse business uncertainty resulting from
the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed transaction, including
restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact
Juniper’s and HPE’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or
strategic transactions; (xi) legal, regulatory, tax and economic developments
affecting Juniper’s and HPE’s business; (xii) the unpredictability and severity
of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism,
outbreak of war or hostilities or current or future pandemics or epidemics, as
well as Juniper’s and HPE’s response to any of the aforementioned factors; and
(xiii) other risks described in Juniper’s and HPE’s filings with the SEC, such
risks and uncertainties described under the headings “Forward-Looking
Statements,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of HPE’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for its fiscal year ended October 31, 2023, Juniper’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings made by HPE or Juniper from
time to time with the SEC. These risks should not be considered a complete
statement of all potential risks and uncertainty, and are discussed more fully,
along with other risks associated with the proposed transaction, in the Proxy
Statement (as defined below) to be filed with the SEC in connection with the
proposed transaction. Unlisted factors may present significant additional
obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Juniper and HPE do
not assume any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise
required by securities and other applicable laws.
