IBM reported a decline in revenues for the 11th consecutive quarter on Tuesday, as it tries to divest unprofitable businesses and focus on cloud computing, big data and cyber security.IBM周二稱之為，在之后重組業務之際，其營收倒數第11個季度上升。該公司正在希望擠壓盈利較好的業務，并將主要精力放到云計算、大數據和網絡安全上。

The New York-listed company said revenue had fallen 12 per cent to $24.1bn in the fourth quarter, compared to the same period the year before, lower than the average analyst estimate of $24.8bn.這家在紐約上市的企業回應，2014年第四季度，該公司營收同比上升12%，跌到至241億美元，也高于248億美元的分析師平均值預期。Fourth-quarter earnings were down 6 per cent to $5.81 per share on a non-GAAP basis, beating the average prediction of $5.41 per share. Earnings per share on a GAAP basis were $5.54 and net income was $5.5bn, down 17 per cent.按非普遍認為會計準則(GAAP)計，該公司第四季度盈利暴跌6%，降到每股5.81美元，低于每股5.41美元的平均值預期。

按普遍認為會計準則計算出來，該公司凈收入為55億美元，每股盈利5.54美元，上升17%。For 2015, the company forecast a rise in earnings per share to between $15.75 and $16.50, slightly below the average analyst forecast of $16.51 because of investment costs and currency headwinds.IBM預計，2015年該公司每股盈利將升到15.75美元到16.5美元之間。

由于投資成本及匯率方面的不利因素，上述預期略低于16.51美元的分析師平均值預期。Despite the overall decline last year, Ginni Rometty, IBM chairman and chief executive, said the company’s “strategic” businesses of cloud, analytics, mobile, social and security grew 16 per cent in 2014 to represent 27 per cent of revenue. These businesses are forecast to grow in double digits next year, the company said.不過，盡管去年IBM總體營收經常出現下降，該公司董事長兼任首席執行官羅睿蘭(Ginni Rometty)回應，去年它的云計算業務、分析業務、移動業務、社交網絡業務及安全性業務等“戰略性”業務快速增長了16%，占到全部營收的27%。該公司預計明年這部分業務將經常出現兩位數快速增長。

“We are making significant progress in our transformation, continuing to shift IBM’s business to higher value, and investing and positioning ourselves for the longer term,” she said.羅睿蘭回應：“我們在轉型方面獲得了巨大進步。我們之后令IBM改向價值更高的業務，并在投資和定位上更加側重長年。

”Revenue from its mobile business was up over 200 per cent, cloud computing rose 60 per cent, security added 19 per cent and analytics increased by 7 per cent.IBM移動業務的營收快速增長了兩倍以上，云計算業務快速增長60%，網絡安全快速增長19%，分析業務則快速增長7%。The hardware business led the declines, down 39 per cent, or 12 per cent excluding a divestment and on a constant currency basis.在營收下降的業務中，硬件業務首當其沖，暴跌39%。

在刨除資產擠壓因素之后，以恒定匯率計算出來，該部門營收暴跌12%。
