Here is a quick overview of Cisco 

Company History

Two computer scientists from Stanford University, Leonard Bosack and Sandy Lerner, created Cisco Systems in December 1984. They invented the idea of using a multiprotocol router system to link distant computers over a local area network (LAN). After going public in 1990, the business surpassed Microsoft as the most valuable company in the world with a $500 billion market capitalization at the end of the dot-com bubble in 2000.

Current Status

Over 39,000 CIOs, IT decision makers, and corporate employees from 34 countries participate in Cisco’s Future of Technology research, which offers a comprehensive understanding of the demands and objectives of today’s enterprise clients. The American multinational technology conglomerate Cisco Systems, Inc. creates, produces, and markets hardware, telecom equipment, software, and other high-tech services and goods with an emphasis on networking, cyber security, and artificial intelligence. With technologies like Webex, OpenDNS, Jabber, and Jasper, Cisco focuses in particular tech areas like videoconferencing, the Internet of Things (IoT), domain security, and energy management. San Jose, California, is home to the company’s headquarters.

Future Look

Cisco Systems’ revenue and earnings are expected to increase by 5.4% and 10.6% annually, respectively. It is anticipated that EPS will increase by 11.8% annually. In three years, a return on equity of 33.9% is anticipated. In contrast to earlier projections of $59 billion to $60 billion, Cisco anticipates fiscal 2026 revenue between $60.2 billion and $61 billion. It is evident that it upholds continuing relationships for service support and transactional relationships for product sales.
