"We continue to manage our business effectively in a dynamic storage demand environment," said Steve Milligan, chief executive officer. "Computer usage continues to shift from PCs to mobile devices and enterprise workloads are moving increasingly to cloud-based architectures. Our strategy to become a broad-based provider of media-agnostic storage solutions anticipates these and other trends. After we complete the acquisition of SanDisk, we will be better positioned to address and capitalize on these changes and opportunities, with the storage industry's broadest set of products, a rich technology portfolio, and an experienced team in both rotating magnetic and non-volatile memory."

The company indicated that it continues to expect to complete its planned acquisition of SanDisk in the June quarter.
