Super Micro Computer, Inc. · SMCI · FY2025 Q2 · Calendar Q1 2025
Supermicro pairs strong Blackwell demand with lower FY2025 guidance
The supplied analysis supports a constructive demand case for Supermicro: AI infrastructure demand, Blackwell volume production, liquid cooling, and capacity expansion remain growth drivers. That case is tempered by lower FY2025 guidance, margin durability questions, supply dependence, and filing and working-capital risks.

What changed
Compared with the prior-quarter analysis, the current analysis highlights Blackwell platforms in volume production, a lower FY2025 revenue guide, a $40 billion FY2026 target, and $700 million of convertible-note financing for expansion.
Guidance delta
Management lowered FY2025 revenue guidance to $23.5-$25 billion while maintaining a $40 billion FY2026 target.
Key takeaways

- Blackwell B200 and GB200 platforms and direct-liquid-cooling systems entered volume production.
- Management is expanding manufacturing and Datacenter Building Block Solutions while pursuing the FY2026 revenue target.

Methodology
Reported and consensus figures come from FN2's earnings event records. Market reaction and volume are calculated from daily adjusted bars around the event; abnormal move subtracts the SPY move over the same window.
Analyst target low, average, and high values are derived at request time from each named analyst's latest persisted FMP target. The current-price marker comes from FN2's persisted market snapshot. They are sell-side estimates, not an FN2 valuation or recommendation.
Transcript intelligence is a structured synthesis of the current and prior earnings-call analyses. Missing values stay missing and are never estimated.
