A runoff line, not a business: VMware resale plus divested and non-reportable offerings that Dell no longer actively sells. It has declined in every single quarter of the disclosed history, from $1,050M to $224M in nine quarters, and it is carried here only so the vertical total reconciles exactly to reported consolidated revenue.

Assumptions & reasoning

  • Its only job in this model is reconciliation: reportable segment revenue of $43,618M plus $224M equals the $43,842M consolidated revenue Dell reported. Drop it and the six lines no longer tie to the income statement.
  • Corporate and other operating income was $10M on $224M of revenue in the basis quarter, so the line is close to margin-neutral and far too small for its margin assumption to change any answer on this page.
  • The runoff is modelled at 8% sequential decline against an actual nine-quarter average of roughly 18%. That is deliberately gentle: driving the line to zero inside the horizon would flatter consolidated growth rather than describe it.
