## In brief

Net sales of $11.1 billion versus $10.2 billion in Q3'26 and $5.8 billion in Q4'25, with gross margin of 17.5% and diluted net income per common share of $1.62.

Supermicro's fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was its strongest yet. Net sales were $11.1 billion versus $5.8 billion a year earlier, and gross margin rose to 17.5% from 9.5%. Net income reached $1,178 million, or $1.62 per diluted share. For the full year, net sales were $39.1 billion versus $22.0 billion, while operating activities used cash because inventory and receivables ballooned.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2027, management expects net sales of $14.5 billion to $15.5 billion and non-GAAP earnings of $1.01 to $1.10 per diluted share. For the full year it expects $65.0 billion to $72.0 billion. The main tensions are that results are preliminary and unaudited, a Board review of export-control transactions could change them, and customer concentration and tariffs could pressure margins.
