"'The portfolio will grow. I am confident that the IBM company will grow again,' Schroeter said. 'We're taking time to make sure we invest in the right places and make sure we get the kind of margin high-value profile we're looking for.'
'We have not been solely focused on just that top line, headline number of "when can we print growth." Had we wanted to print growth, we probably wouldn't have divested of $8 billion worth of businesses. We'd probably reduce our investments overseas, where, obviously, there's a currency impact, so that has not been our focus, and so that 20 quarter headline is probably not the framing that we're thinking about,' he added."
