• Although Q1 net sales fell short of earlier guidance, EPS exceeded initial projections, showing profitability management.


• The Special Committee’s report clears management, adding credibility amid governance enhancements.


• Q2 guidance reflects stability, but Supermicro’s compliance delay with Nasdaq remains a watch point for potential listing risk.
