Super Micro Computer posted revenue of $11.12 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, nearly doubling from $5.76 billion a year earlier. The figure still came in below analyst expectations of $11.3 billion to $11.6 billion, with the company citing delays tied to customer readiness in power, cooling and networking. Even so, margins improved sharply. Gross margin reached 17.5%, above both the company’s preliminary range of 15% to 17% issued last month and its earlier forecast of 8.2% to 8.4%. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.70, well above the 92-cent analyst consensus, while net income rose to $1.17 billion from $195.2 million a year earlier. Super Micro also issued stronger forward guidance, projecting first-quarter revenue of $14.5 billion to $15.5 billion and fiscal 2027 revenue of $65 billion to $72 billion, both above Wall Street expectations. New orders topped $60 billion, backlog hit a record, and nine customers each generated more than $1 billion in revenue during fiscal 2026.
