  • Net income of $353 million versus $402 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 and $194 million in the same quarter of last year.
  • Diluted net income per common share of $5.51 versus $6.56 in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 and $3.43 in the same quarter of last year.
  • Non-GAAP diluted net income per common share of $6.25 versus $6.65 in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 and $3.51 in the same quarter of last year.

  • The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a 10-for-1 forward split of its common stock and we expect trading to commence on a split-adjusted basis on October 1, 2024.

Non-GAAP gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was 11.3%, which adds back stock-based compensation expense of $3 million. Non-GAAP diluted net income per common share for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $6.25, with adjustments for stock-based compensation expenses of $52 million, net of the related tax effects of $20 million.

As of June 30, 2024, total cash and cash equivalents was $1,670 million and total bank debt and convertible notes were $2,174 million.

“Supermicro continues to experience record demand of new AI infrastructures propelling fiscal 2024 revenue up 110% year over year to $14.9 billion and non-GAAP earnings per share up 87% to $22.09,” said Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro, “We are well positioned to become the largest IT infrastructure company, driven by our technology leadership including rack-scale DLC liquid cooling and business values of our new Datacenter Building Block Solutions. The investments in Malaysia and Silicon Valley expansions will further strengthen our supply chain, security, and economies of scale necessary for the growing AI revolution.”

Fiscal Year 2024 Summary

Net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, were $14.94 billion versus $7.12 billion for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. Net income for fiscal year 2024 was $1.21 billion, or $20.09 per diluted share, versus $640 million, or $11.43 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2023. Non-GAAP net income for fiscal year 2024 was $1.34 billion, or $22.09 per diluted share, versus $673 million, or $11.81 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2023. Non-GAAP net income for fiscal year 2024 adds back stock-based compensation expense of $135 million, net of the related tax effects of $93 million.

Business Outlook and Management Commentary

For the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 ending September 30, 2024, the Company expects net sales of $6.0 billion to $7.0 billion, GAAP net income per diluted share of $5.97 to $7.66 and non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $6.69 to $8.27. The Company’s projections for GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share assume a tax rate of approximately 9.9% and 14.6%, respectively, and a fully diluted share count of 65 million shares for GAAP and fully diluted share count of 66 million shares for non-GAAP. The outlook for Q1 of fiscal year 2025 GAAP net income per diluted share includes approximately $48 million in expected stock-based compensation expense and other expenses, net of related tax effects of $35 million, which are excluded from non-GAAP net income per diluted share.

For fiscal year 2025 ending June 30, 2025, the Company expects net sales of $26.0 billion to $30.0 billion.

Supermicro will present a live audio webcast of a conference call to review its fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 on Tuesday, August 6, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. ET / 2:00 p.m. PT.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in this press release that are not historical fact may be forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward looking statements may relate to, among other things, the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 and full year fiscal 2025 guidance, the ability to continue to see record demand for new AI infrastructure, the ability to become a dominant IT infrastructure Company, and the ability of investments in certain expansions to strengthen the supply chain, security, and economies of scale for growth. Such forward looking statements do not constitute guarantees of future performance and are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, including: (i) our quarterly operating results may fluctuate, which could cause rapid declines in our stock price, (ii) as we increasingly target larger customers and larger sales opportunities, our customer base may become more concentrated, our cost of sales may increase, our margins may be lower and our sales may be less predictable, (iii) if we fail to meet publicly announced financial guidance or other expectations about our business, our stock could decline in value, (iv) the average sales prices for our server solutions could decline if customers do not continue to purchase our latest generation products or additional components, and (v) adverse economic conditions may harm our business. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or suggested in any forward looking statements are contained in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in such filings, particularly in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed thereafter.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP gross margin discussed in this press release adds back stock-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP diluted net income per common share discussed in this press release adds back stock-based compensation expenses and litigation expense recovery adjusted for the related tax effects. Management presents non-GAAP financial measures because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of performance. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including analysis of the Company's performance against prior periods, the preparation of operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Management also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the Company's financial and operational performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and are not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP gross margin to non-GAAP gross margin and from GAAP diluted net income per common share to non-GAAP diluted net income per common share is included in the tables below.
