5. PC Sales Hit Record-Breaking Heights
Dell’s PC business broke all its previous sales records in 2021 spanning back decades.
Dell’s fiscal year 2022, which runs from January 2021 to January 2022 will most likely be a historic year for the company in terms of record-breaking sales led by its red-hot PC business.
The global COVID-19 pandemic had businesses and organizations of all shapes and sizes clamoring in 2021 for products in Dell’s Client Solutions Group (CSG) which includes desktop PCs, Chromebooks, notebooks and thin clients.
For its recent third fiscal quarter 2022, Dell’s CSG business generated record third quarter revenue of $16.5 billion, representing an increase of 35 percent year over year.
In Dell’s second fiscal quarter, CSG sales climbed 27 percent year over year to a record of $14.3 billion.
In its first fiscal quarter, Dell’s CSG revenue generated a record first quarter revenue of $13.3 billion, up 20 percent year over year.
Dell’s current fourth fiscal quarter will most likely be yet another record-breaking quarter. It will be interesting to see if Dell’s roaring PCs growth can be sustained in 2022.
