I have always assumed this was some nonsense about strategically being distant from other companies in the segment. Cisco for example starts their FY first in August, so kind of random vs the calendar year.
And then there is Apple, that starts from September 25th. :)
It takes courage.
And their next one will start on 1 October. Their FY runs to the last Saturday of September. This year, that means 30 September and last year was 24 September. They have either a 52-week or 53-week fiscal year.
