Michael Dell On Upcoming IPO
Dell Technologies founder and CEO Michael Dell is bullish about the decision to not merge with VMware after confirming on Monday that he will take Dell public again on the New York Stock Exchange as part of a share swap with its DVMT VMware software business tracking stock.
"This is a very different company than it was five or so years ago," said Dell during an analyst and media conference call Monday morning. "Earlier this year, we kicked off this process, looked at the various alternatives and concluded that [going public] was a great way to not only simplify the structure, but create flexibility for us and expose the great businesses we have here back to the public markets."
Here are the seven biggest statements Michael Dell said regarding the Round Rock, Texas-based company's decision to go public.
