“This is Supermicro’s fourth consecutive quarter of revenues exceeding a billion dollars and with a trailing four quarter revenue run rate of $4.6 billion, it gives me strong confidence that we are well ahead of our long-term targets,” said Charles Liang, Chairman and CEO. “Our robust growth and EPS progress demonstrates the efficiency of our global operational

leverage and our customers recognizing the value of our rack-scale Total IT Solutions in key market segments across AI, enterprise, cloud, edge/telco and others. Along with our product optimization, time to market advantage, and green computing cost-savings presented by our Total IT Solutions, our growth momentum should continue to fuel our emergence as the leading company in the industry in the coming quarters and years ahead.”

Business Outlook and Management Commentary

For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022 ending June 30, 2022, the Company expects net sales of $1.4 billion to $1.48 billion, GAAP net income per diluted share of $1.45 to $1.64 and non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $1.51 to $1.69. The Company’s projections for GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share assume a tax rate of approximately 17.4% and 19.4%, respectively, and a fully diluted share count of 54.3 million shares for GAAP and fully diluted share count of 55.7 million shares for non-GAAP. The outlook for Q4 of fiscal year 2022 GAAP net income per diluted share includes approximately $8.0 million in expected stock-based compensation expense and $1.0 million in other expenses that are excluded from non-GAAP net income per diluted share.

For fiscal year 2022 ending June 30, 2022, the Company raises its previous guidance of net sales from $4.2 billion to $4.6 billion to a new range of $4.96 billion to $5.04 billion, and raises its GAAP net income per diluted share of at least $2.77 to a new range of $4.16 to $4.35 and non-GAAP net income per diluted share of at least $3.20 to a new range of $4.53 to $4.71. The Company’s projections for GAAP and non-GAAP net income per diluted share assume a tax rate of approximately 16.5% and 18.7%, respectively, and a fully diluted share count of 53.6 million shares for GAAP and fully diluted share count of 55.1 million shares for non-GAAP. The outlook for fiscal year 2022 GAAP net income per diluted share includes approximately $39.0 million in expected stock-based compensation expense and other expenses 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 2022 and full fiscal year 2022 guidance, the Company's long-term growth targets, the ability to accelerate sales growth to achieve the revenue target much sooner, the ability to maintain growth momentum, the ability to fuel our emergence as the leading company in the industry, and the ability to execute on the Company's strategy during the global COVID-19 pandemic. 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 continues to present significant uncertainties for all 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, 2021.

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, special performance bonuses, litigation expenses, litigation settlement costs and other expenses, and excludes a credit from an executive SEC settlement, which are all adjusted for the related tax effects of the applicable items. 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 gross margin to non-GAAP gross margin and from diluted net income per common share to non-GAAP diluted net income per common share is included in the tables below.
