Garcha believes that the support of a “strong activist” was a “value added benefit” that could help the company improve its business. However, given the earnings misses over recent quarters, similar issues are expected to plague Xerox over the next few quarters, especially in its Services segment.
“Given Xerox is in an on-going strategic review, we believe the involvement of Carl Icahn increases the probability of a split, separation, or outright sale of the company, potentially unlocking shareholder value,” Garcha added.
Garcha also expects Icahn to have a say in the selection of the company’s new CFO, given Icahn’s experience in “advising companies across various industries.”
