“Supermicro continues to see record levels of engagements in our new generation product lines, especially for AI applications" said Charles Liang, President and CEO of Supermicro. "We secured several new and large design wins and are deploying some of the world’s most leading GPU clusters. With the recent new key components supply chain challenges mostly in the rear-view mirror and production normalizing, we expect to gain share and expand scale as we emerge as the true leader for rack-scale Total IT Solutions.”



Business Outlook and Management Commentary
For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 ending June 30, 2023, the Company expects net sales of $1.7 billion to $1.9 billion, GAAP net income per diluted share of $2.13 to $2.65 and non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $2.21 to $2.71. The Company’s projections for GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share assume a tax rate of approximately 14.7% and 15.7%, respectively, and a fully diluted share count of 56 million shares for GAAP and fully diluted share count of 57 million shares for non-GAAP. The outlook for Q4 of fiscal year 2023 GAAP net income per diluted share includes approximately $7 million in expected stock-based compensation and other expenses, net of related tax effects that are excluded from non-GAAP net income per diluted share.

For fiscal year 2023 ending June 30, 2023, the Company maintains its guidance for net sales from a range of $6.6 billion to $6.8 billion, GAAP net income per diluted share from a range of $10.14 to $10.66, and non-GAAP net income per diluted share from a range of $10.50 to $11.00. The Company’s projections for annual GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share assume a tax rate of approximately 14.9% and 16.0%, respectively, and a fully diluted share count of 56 million shares for GAAP and fully diluted share count of 57 million shares for non-GAAP. The outlook for fiscal year 2023 GAAP net income per diluted share includes approximately $33 million in expected stock-based compensation and other expenses, net of related tax effects that are excluded from non-GAAP net income per diluted share.

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 fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 and full year fiscal 2023 guidance, record levels of engagement in new product lines, resolving recent supply chain challenges and production normalizing, gaining share, and expanding scale. 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) the global COVID-19 pandemic may continue to present significant uncertainties for parts of our business including our supply chain, our production operations and customer demand, (ii) our quarterly operating results may fluctuate, which could cause rapid declines in our stock price, (iii) 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, (iv) if we fail to meet publicly announced financial guidance or other expectations about our business, our stock could decline in value, (v) 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 (vi) 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, 2022, 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 and other expenses. Non-GAAP diluted net income per common share discussed in this press release adds back stock-based compensation expenses, litigation settlement costs, special performance bonuses 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.
