Nov 1 (Reuters) - Splunk (SPLK.O) said on Wednesday it would lay off nearly 7% of its global workforce as the cybersecurity and cloud software company grapples with an uncertain macroeconomic environment. Splunk had 8,000 employees as of Jan. 31, of which nearly 560 are set to be impacted by the layoffs. "The overall market has retracted and we expect the macro environment will continue to be unpredictable for the foreseeable future," said CEO Gary Steele in an email sent to employees, about a month ahead of its quarterly results. The reorganization is unrelated to the deal Cisco Systems (CSCO.O) made in September to acquire Splunk for about $28 billion, Steele added.

Cybersecurity firm Splunk , set to be Cisco's largest-ever acquisition, announced Wednesday it would lay off approximately 7% of its global workforce, months ahead of the deal close. Splunk had nearly 8,000 employees as of January, according to its regulatory filings, meaning that around 500 employees will likely lose their jobs. "Within the next 24 hours, each ELT member will communicate with their organization to summarize any changes to their teams," Steele wrote. Shortly after the announcement, Steele and Cisco CEO Chuck Robbins discussed the deal on a call with analysts. Companies such as Google and Microsoft have cut thousands of employees, while many venture-backed companies have become so-called "zombie startups."

Splunk is now in the position to deliver "mid-teens" increases in annual revenue after a management overhaul that began 18 months ago, according to Jefferies. "Splunk's growth prospects and addressable market are vast, particularly in the enterprise segment of the market that it addresses," Thill wrote in a note Tuesday. "With these transitions now largely over and a new mgmt team in place, the financial model is now more straightforward," Thill wrote. "The focus at SPLK has noticeably shifted in the last year towards profitable growth while exercising disciplined expense management," Thill said. "As top-line growth stabilizes at scale, we believe the larger opportunity for Splunk lies in improving operational efficiencies and profitability," Thill wrote.

Activist Commentary: Starboard is a very successful activist investor and has extensive experience helping companies focus on operational efficiency and margin improvement. Splunk has a leading market share and is considered the "gold standard" in the log management and security markets. This is a typical Starboard investment – a company with strong top-line growth and enviable market position that needs help with optimizing growth and margins. When an activist takes a position at a company, it puts that company in pseudo-play with potential acquirers often coming out of the woodwork. You would think that their interest level has piqued a little with Splunk now trading at a $12.7 billion market cap.

Smith was detailing the thesis of his most recent investments at the 13D Monitor Active-Passive Investor Summit on Tuesday. "We think there's significant upside at Splunk," Smith said noting the company could boost free cash flow margins and maintain strong growth profile that could allow Splunk to generate eight to $9 of free cash flow per share by 2025. He added that, as well as growing profitability, Splunk's business made it highly attractive as a potential acquisition target. "This dynamic creates multiple ways to win and makes the investment in Splunk even more interesting," he added.
