    VMware Gains Operational and Financial Flexibility while Maintaining Strategic Partnership with Dell Technologies

    Company Poised to Lead in Multi-Cloud Services for All Apps, Enabling Digital Innovation with Enterprise Control

    VMware (NYSE:VMW) and Dell Technologies today announced the completion of the spin-off of VMware from Dell Technologies. The spin-off from Dell Technologies provides VMware increased freedom to execute its multi-cloud strategy, a simplified capital structure and governance model, and additional operational and financial flexibility.

The ex-dividend date will be November 2, 2021, the first trading day following the Payment Date.
