Acquisition of Pivotal </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">— On December 30, 2019, VMware, Inc. completed its acquisition of Pivotal Software, Inc. (“Pivotal”) by merger (the “Pivotal acquisition”), with Pivotal surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of VMware, Inc. Each outstanding share of Pivotal’s Class A common stock (other than shares held by Pivotal stockholders who properly exercised their appraisal rights under Delaware law) was converted into the right to receive </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$15.00</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> in cash, without interest, and each outstanding share of Pivotal’s Class B common stock was converted into the right to receive </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>0.0550</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of a share of Class B common stock of VMware, Inc. Dell Technologies, which held all outstanding shares of Pivotal’s Class B common stock, received approximately </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>7.2 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> shares of Class B common stock of VMware, Inc. in the transaction. As of the transaction date, Pivotal’s Class A common stock (NYSE: PVTL) ceased to be listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”).</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Due to the Company’s ownership of a controlling interest in Pivotal, the Company and VMware, Inc. accounted for the acquisition of the controlling interest in Pivotal as a transaction by entities under common control, and, consequently, the transaction had no net effect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the Pivotal acquisition, Pivotal operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of VMware, Inc. and Dell Technologies reports Pivotal results within the VMware reportable segment. Prior to the Pivotal acquisition, Pivotal results were reported within Other businesses. This change in Pivotal segment classification was reflected retrospectively and is presented in </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Note 19</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of the </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">For VMware, Inc. financial reporting purposes, the acquisition of the controlling interest in Pivotal qualifies as a change in reporting entity, specifically a change in the specific subsidiaries that make up the group for which VMware, Inc. financial statements are presented. As a result, VMware, Inc. was required to retrospectively adjust its financial statements to include the net assets received and related results of operations of Pivotal, for all periods during which Pivotal and VMware, Inc. were under common control of Dell Technologies.</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Revenue Reclassification </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">— For the fiscal year ended </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">January 31, 2020</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, Dell Technologies made certain reclassifications of net revenue between the products and services categories on the Consolidated Statement of Net Income (Loss). The reclassifications were made to provide a more meaningful representation of the nature of certain service and software-as-a-service offerings of VMware, Inc. Prior period results were recast to conform with these changes, and resulted in an increase to services revenue and an equal and offsetting decrease to product revenue in the following amounts: </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$584 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> for the nine months ended </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">November 1, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">; </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$580 million</span></span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> for the fiscal year ended </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">February 1, 2019</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">; and </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><span>$353 million</span></span> for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2018. Total net revenue as previously reported remains unchanged. The Company did not recast cost of goods sold for the related revenue reclassifications due to immateriality.
