Hewlett-Packard today announced its first quarter 2013 earnings. The company reported the non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.82, down 11% from the prior year while GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.63, down 14% from the prior year. The company reported the net revenue of $28.4 billion, down 6% year over year.

“We beat our non-GAAP diluted EPS outlook for the quarter by $0.11 per share, driven by improved execution, improvement in our channel and go-to-market efforts and the impact of the restructuring program we announced in May 2012,” said Meg Whitman, HP president and chief executive officer. “While there’s still a lot of work to do to generate the kind of growth we want to see, our turnaround is starting to gain traction as a result of the actions we took in 2012 to lay the foundation for HP’s future.”

For the second quarter of fiscal 2013, HP estimates non-GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.80 to $0.82 while GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $0.38 to $0.40. On counting for the full year fiscal 2013, HP estimates a non-GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $3.40 to $3.60 and GAAP diluted EPS to be in the range of $2.30 to $2.50.
