Shaping Our Brand

Since we announced the CSC-HPE ES merger in May 2016, defining the brand identity of our new company has been a chief priority. Our integrated CSC-ES team has been working in collaboration with leadership and the global brand firm Siegel+Gale on a brand strategy that reflects the true expression of our new company’s mission, vision, values and culture.

The group explored a great many options, including many that were crowd-sourced from inside and outside our companies. We sought a brand that would be fresh, distinctive, and highly differentiated. We worked to create a brand that would set us apart, yet represent the best qualities of where we’ve been and, most importantly, what we aspire to be going forward.

The framework established to shape our brand identity embraces these core attributes:

• Differentiates us from the competition

• Clarifies what we promise and deliver

• Drives preference

• Inspires employees

• Guides go-to-market investments

The DXC Technology Brand Identity

Creating a new brand should send a signal that DXC Technology is going to be more than just a bigger company. DXC Technology will lead clients through accelerating change, helping them harness the power of technology to deliver new outcomes to transform their business.

• We are an experienced hand who has met the challenges of innovation many times before, and has a clear and confident vision for navigating the future.

• We work with clients, at their side, to solve complex challenges in ways that minimize business risk and maximize opportunity.

• We operate differently: Our world-class talent becomes part of our client’s team, innovating with them and putting the right technology to work for them. We partner with other technology leaders. And we invest in building collaborative client relationships that flex and grow to help meet new challenges with confidence, speed and agility.

• We bring assured authority to every challenge: We look change squarely in the face and see the opportunity in it. We work with the confidence of having before met the challenges of innovation.

Bringing DXC Technology to Life

Today’s brand reveal is a “soft” launch intended to inform our community, including our clients and partners who are some of our key stakeholders. We are issuing a press release and making a requisite filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

We will fully launch the DXC Technology brand in a big way globally, among all of our stakeholders, following the transaction close. Day 1 is currently scheduled for Monday, April 3. Until that time, please take the time to:

• View this brief introductory video and sizzle reel that provide additional insight on the DXC Technology brand.

• View the FAQs that will guide you through the guardrails around our new name and logo.

It’s important to note that the DXC Technology brand should NOT be actively used in any materials until our new company’s debut.

We will continue to communicate regularly about our progress and activities, and to seek your thoughts and ideas on the merger along the way. An archive of prior communications about the merger is available on the ES Spin Merger News site.

We hope that you share our excitement and passion for our new company’s brand and future. Thank you for your continued energy, enthusiasm and hard work.
