Super Micro Computer Inc (SMCI) Cotización

DINO: Judging merely by recent posts, you apparently are the leading bull on the board. This is my first time here. As you can tell from my name, I have been in TSLA the last few years.

The reason I am on this board is because I have been thinking of setting up a position in this stock. Earlier this year (or last) I stumbled on to NVDA. I HAD TO EXERCISE MY CALLS TO BUY THE STOCK, BECAUSE NOBODY WANTED TO PAY ME THE INTRINSIC VALUE OF MY CALLS! OF COURSE, NVDA IS GOING TO THE MOON AND BEYOND, However, Nvidia seems to be stretched. so I am going to get into the competition. I have already got some AVGO, now I would like to dabble in SMCI. However, before I buy a stock I sell puts against it.. With SMCI I sold a bunch of puts at 40. Imagine my humongous surprise when the stock crashed through my strike price of $40, and went down all the way to below $20! So I was looking at a potential loss of $2000 per put. THANK GOD the stock is recovering since the new auditor was announced.

HERE its my question to you: Do you think there is ANY more bad news coming?

Loaded at $38!!! Oh really?

nice!

Loaded at $38!!!

Shake and bake?

For now SMCI defies gravity, this is going to play out similar to CVN*A.

let's go smci chomp chomp

No stock goes up forever, there is going to be ups and downs, sideways, all it requires is balls of steels, more importantly, knowing what you are holding. On days of volatility all you need to do is remind yourself why you are in this in the first place and use the common logic this is so undervalued.

Amazing run thus far!

What a run from low 20's I hope to see this over $100.00 GLTA

Though some people are catching on.

" $200 SP implies a market cap of roughly $117B which is just 3.5% of the size of nephew Jensen’s startup $NVDA."

Nvidia will present at UBS Global Technology and AI Conference tomorrow morning, December 3. Just wait until Jensen mentions SMCI and we really move higher!!!

Some people still have no clue what is taking place. Approximately close to 100 people worked day and night to find some discrepancy with the number, none were found thus no fraud.

60 is when squeeze happens.

Carvana style. Typo.

1000 more followers since yesterday on Stocktwits, 7000 more followers since 2 weeks ago. If this trend continues and we are sitting at 60,000 by year end possible, that is right around the range GM*E and AMC* started.

This will go up CNV*A style....1.5 years 400 dollars.

Once that is breached, you will be static cause 100 will be there in no time.

Excellent! Thanks.

Extension news will set the stage.

Once this reaches 70-75 thousand watchers on ST, this will get very interesting.

News and momo trumps any chart out there. 200 dollars before August next year.

SMCI Outlook After Committee Finds "No Evidence" of Fraud

Well sure. I should be selling some of my shares today, but I'm feeling a bit greedy. A break above $52 means something. Right now it's merely in a trading range for the suckers.

I think battling a wall at $52 is an improvement from where we are today. I’ll take it.

Over the years, I've seen many times a stock responds before all the facts are out. I'm not saying, this will or will not break out, I'm merely telling you what the chart says. I trust charts.

Super Micro is one of the most mentioned companies in the U.S. across all news items in the past 12 hours, according to Factiva data. The server company's shares were recently up 30% to $42.32 after it said a final review showed no evidence of fraud or misconduct by its management or board relating to accounting issues. Super Micro also said it will appoint a new chief financial officer and it doesn't expect to restate its results. Dow Jones & Co. owns Factiva.

The huge wall is at $52..

SMCI robust like NVDA

long term here from 90s, pain but certain it will go back up there and go further up around 150s

I am done for the day, need to go out on the field for inspections, since it is almost the end of the year, people buying homes and taking out loans for purchases. SMCI is a hold for massive gains.

Busted through.

43 gets taken out all blue skies ahead, again none of it matters to me. Looking for 100 plus in the months ahead and 200 by August of next year.

Gobbled up.

Huge wall at 40, huge so huge.

👍️....

Looks like back to $40s before lunch.

want 50's short term, that is where it was before the drop then will mini whee lol

One never knows for sure, but based on what is rumored between 75-95 million, which sounds about right, based on the way it is trading. If this kind of volume continues for another day or two, we could hit the mid 40's and might tap 50 soon. Squeezes don't happen overnight, you have to know that, its a process, which takes 3-4 months to unfold, but in the case of SMCI is different, fundamentally they are very strong company in a blazing hot sector, so it might be sooner that originally thought. I can almost guarantee that they haven't covered yet, covering will start at $60.00

Any idea how many shares are short?

Don't wait for it, don't look, when it comes it will be shock n awe. About a week ago, I saw two glitches in the after hours the same day, one for 200 shares at 57 dollars and another 200 shares at 73 dollars, those targets are going to hit on Nasdaq extension.

75 million shares traded already. One hour. Is the squeeze coming?

43 is the next big resistance, not that it matters to me, I am holding minimum mid to border line long term. I will be out next year around this time and will hold just a couple hundred shares for the end goal. Good luck everyone. My calls are up big since my average was $4.00 that ends in August of next year, so are my shares from average $33.00.

I'm looking for a little more.

Hooray!

Further confirmation that books haven't been cooked.

Yes $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Fair warning to the shorts before Nasdaq extension and audit report. Games will be over soon.

****BREAKING NEWS****Supermicro Announces Completion of Review by Independent Special Committee****

Special Committee, supported by outside counsel Cooley LLP and forensic accounting firm Secretariat Advisors, LLC , finds no evidence of misconduct on the part of management or the Board of Directors and that the Audit Committee acted independently

No restatement of reported financials expected

Board adopts recommendations of the Special Committee and appoints new Chief Accounting Officer, approves the transition to a new CFO and authorizes additional executive hires, along with other measures to strengthen the Company SAN JOSE, Calif. --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- December 02, 2024 --

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMCI) (the "Company"), a Total IT Solution Provider for AI, Cloud, Storage, and 5G/Edge, today announced that the independent Special Committee formed by the Company's Board of Directors has completed its review (the "Review"). As announced on August 30, 2024 , the Board of Directors formed this committee in response to information that was brought to the attention of its Audit Committee.

Among its findings, the independent Special Committee determined that the resignation of the Company's former registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP ("EY") and the conclusions EY stated in its resignation letter were not supported by the facts examined in the Review, the Special Committee's interim findings reported to EY on October 2, 2024 , or the Special Committee's final findings.

Key Findings of the Special Committee

On November 5, 2024 , the Company announced that the Special Committee's investigation preliminarily found that the Audit Committee had acted independently and that there was no evidence of fraud or misconduct on the part of management or the Board of Directors. The Special Committee's final findings support those initial findings, and the Company is now disclosing the details of the Review, along with measures recommended by the Special Committee.

The Special Committee's investigation was intended to assess whether the information brought to the Audit Committee's attention by EY, and certain other matters identified during the Review, raised substantial concerns about (i) the integrity of the Company's senior management and Audit Committee, (ii) the commitment of the Company's senior management and Audit Committee to ensuring that the Company's financial statements are materially accurate, (iii) the Audit Committee's independence and ability to provide proper oversight over matters relating to financial reporting, and (iv) the tone at the top of the Company with regard to rehiring certain former employees and financial reporting.

The Special Committee's key findings are summarized as follows:

-- Management and Audit Committee integrity: The evidence reviewed by the Special Committee did not raise any substantial concerns about the integrity of Supermicro's senior management or Audit Committee, or their commitment to ensuring that the Company's financial statements are materially accurate.

-- Audit Committee independence: As to the matters investigated by the Special Committee, the Audit Committee demonstrated appropriate independence and generally provided proper oversight over matters relating to financial reporting. The Special Committee also had no reservations about the independence of the Audit Committee and each of its members.

-- Appropriate tone at the top: With respect to the rehiring of former employees, the tone at the top of the Company was appropriate and fully consistent with a commitment to proper financial reporting and legal compliance.

Formation of the Special Committee and the Process of Its Investigation

In late July 2024 , EY communicated to the Audit Committee concerns about certain matters related to governance, transparency, and the Company's internal control over financial reporting. In response, the Board appointed a new director to the Board and formed the Special Committee to review these matters. The Special Committee engaged independent outside counsel Cooley LLP and forensic accounting firm Secretariat Advisors, LLC to aid in an investigation on behalf of and at the direction of the Special Committee.

Specifically, as part of its review, the Special Committee investigated issues related to:

-- Rehiring certain employees who resigned in 2018 following an investigation in 2017 by the Audit Committee regarding sales and revenue recognition practices (the "2017 Audit Committee Investigation").

-- Current sales and revenue recognition practices, particularly around quarter-ends, as well as with respect to merchandise returns and warranties.

-- Export control matters related to prevention of sales or diversion to restricted countries.

-- Related party disclosures.

The Special Committee is comprised of Susie Giordano , an independent member of Supermicro's Board of Directors. Mrs. Giordano , an experienced attorney, joined the Board in August 2024 specifically to lead the Special Committee's efforts to review the matters outlined above, independent from any existing Directors. Mrs. Giordano has over 25 years of experience advising management and boards of directors, as well as extensive management experience at some of the world's leading technology companies.

The Special Committee's rigorous investigation took over three months, with independent counsel devoting over 9,000 hours and the Secretariat forensic accounting team over 2,500 hours for the Review. As part of that process, the following investigative actions were taken:

-- Extensive document collection, review, and analysis of roughly 4.1 terabytes of data, consisting of over 9 million documents from 89 individuals and an additional hard drive collection.

-- Conducted 68 witness interviews of current and former employees, management, advisors, and Board members.


-- The Special Committee employed more than 50 attorneys from Cooley and outside contract review attorneys, and employed a team of forensic accounting specialists from Secretariat.

-- Extensive meetings with Deloitte and EY, the Company's former auditors.

The Special Committee has confirmed that the Company cooperated fully, and that the Company, Board, and the Audit Committee promptly complied with all requests for information, documentary evidence, and access to relevant witnesses.

Detailed Findings for the Specific Issues Investigated by the Special Committee Rehiring employees

-- The investigation focused on the rehiring of nine individuals, either as employees or as independent contractors, who had previously resigned from the Company following the 2017 Audit Committee Investigation.

-- The Special Committee regarded the lack of any finding in the 2017 Audit Committee Investigation that these individuals had engaged in conduct that was intended to cause the Company's financial results to be misstated as an important factor in assessing the Company's decision to rehire them.

-- The Company's decision to rehire certain individuals was the product of reasonable business judgment.

-- The Company generally had appropriate processes for rehiring these individuals and ensuring proper guardrails were in place.

-- There were, however, lapses, including in ensuring guardrails were always in place and observed. The Special Committee determined that, because the Company's Chief Financial Officer/Chief Compliance Officer (CFO/CCO) had primary responsibility for the process of rehiring these employees, he had primary responsibility for process lapses.

-- The Special Committee found no evidence indicating that any process lapse resulted from bad faith, improper motives, or lack of regard for accurate financial reporting or compliance, on the part of the CFO/CCO or anyone else.

-- These lapses included instances of not promptly informing the Company's Audit Committee and/or independent auditor of certain rehires or plans to rehire some of these former employees, including not informing EY prior to entering in June 2024 into a now terminated consulting arrangement with the Company's former CFO, who had resigned following the 2017 Audit Committee Investigation.

-- The Special Committee found certain instances where the documentation, tracking, training, and instructions around appropriate guardrails were inconsistent or vague.

Revenue recognition and sales practices

-- Based on a thorough review of 52 sales transactions from April 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024 , including two sales transactions specifically designated by EY, the Special Committee did not disagree with any of the Company's revenue recognition conclusions for any quarter during this period.

-- The Special Committee reviewed underlying sales transaction information (including sales orders, purchase orders, shipping documents, payment information, and the Company's revenue recognition determinations), discussed transactions with accounting personnel, and conducted email reviews as appropriate. The sample was focused on sales that included large dollar amounts, involvement of rehires, discussions with now former auditors, customers with high sales concentrations at quarter ends, and/or changes in delivery dates.

-- The Review also examined merchandise returns and warranty practices to assess if there was any pattern or practice of shipping non-working or incomplete products near quarter ends.
