Michael P. Gregoire
Chief Executive Officer
CA Technologies
“And we
are helping
some of the
world’s largest
companies
process
hundreds of
millions of API
transactions
a day.”
We are also thinking about tomorrow’s challenges. In our labs, we are
building software to help customers master the unwired enterprise,
ambient data and API-assembled applications of the future — while
also bringing innovation to the world’s mainframes.
We remain steadfast in our financial commitments to you. In Fiscal
Year 2015, we met our financial guidance metrics — earnings per share,
revenue, and cash. The trend in new sales has improved over the last
two years. The trend in enterprise solutions revenue has improved.
Renewal rates were consistently at or above 90% for each quarter of
fiscal 2015, demonstrating our healthy renewal portfolio. Our customer
satisfaction scores are higher and we continued to demonstrate financial
discipline with our operating margin. Additionally, we returned more
than $650 million to shareholders through dividends and share
repurchases.
Last year, we took a new CA story to the world that was increasingly
aligned with how customers buy today. Inside CA, we continued
to hone our development engine, and added talented people to
strengthen our organic innovation pipeline and accelerate growth.
Most importantly, we realigned our investment portfolio to enhance
our core businesses, scale in growth markets, and capture emerging
domains. We have never been clearer on CA’s unique value proposition
in the marketplace. Today, our people have the capability and shared
sense of mission that creates market leaders.
In this year of progress, I want to thank all of you for your support as
we continue to reshape CA. We at CA appreciate your trust and loyalty.
We will continue to work very hard in Fiscal Year 2016 to move the
needle toward growth. I believe the future is bright for CA and look
forward to delivering a great year.
