February 24, 2022

Xerox Holdings Corporation hosted an Investor Day yesterday to share plans for creating long-term shareholder value, including strategies to grow the Print & Services business and specific growth and commercialisation strategies for new businesses and innovations.

Xerox said it will also provide a long-range financial forecast for each of its businesses, encompassing plans for growth in print and beyond.

“At Xerox, innovation is the core of what we do and who we are. We’ve continued investing in innovation throughout the pandemic and global supply chain disruptions, and today we are pleased to share our progress,” said John Visentin, vice chairman and CEO, Xerox. “We are using innovation to drive growth in Print & Services, IT and Digital Services, as well as in our new disruptive businesses, CareAR and FITTLE, and in several transformative endeavours at PARC.”

As part of its Investor Day, Xerox introduced FITTLE, a rebrand of Xerox Financial Services (XFS), a leading provider of innovative business financing solutions to help organisations of all sizes adapt and grow. The evolution to FITTLE reflects Xerox’s breadth of offerings and expansion into new market segments.

FITTLE currently serves over 150,000 customers in 29 countries, in addition to managing more than 700,000 leases, and works with more than 1,000 dealers and network partners around the world. Learn more at FITTLE.com.
