Symantec Q2FY15 Preview: Spin-off Of Storage Management Software Division In Focus

We believe spinning off the storage management business could re-accelerate sales growth for its core security software business, and expect to hear more on this development during the earnings conference call on November 5th. The company is already reinvesting cash profits from mature product lines such as Norton into niche product areas such as mobile security, enterprise and data center security, business continuity and information fabric solutions.
