SAN JOSE, Calif., October 23, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:SMCI), a leader in application optimized, high performance server solutions, today announced first quarter fiscal 2013 financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The results were in line with the preliminary results announced by the Company on October 9, 2012.
Fiscal 1st Quarter Highlights
• | Quarterly net sales of $270.7 million, down 1.9% from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 and up 9.2% from the same quarter of last year. |
• | Net income of $0.9 million, down 83.7% from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 and down 89.4% from the same quarter of last year. |
• | Gross margin of 12.9%, down from 15.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 and down from 16.0% in the same quarter of last year. |
• | Server solutions accounted for 39.5% of net sales compared with 44.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 and 39.4% in the same quarter of last year. |
Net sales for the first quarter ended September 30, 2012 totaled $270.7 million, down 1.9% from $275.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. No customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 was $0.9 million or $0.02 per diluted share, a decrease of 89.4% from the net income of $8.5 million, or $0.19 per diluted share in the same period a year ago. Included in net income for the quarter is $2.9 million of stock-based compensation expense (pre-tax). Excluding this item and the related tax effect, non-GAAP net income for the first quarter was $3.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $10.5 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, in the same quarter of the prior year. On a sequential basis, non-GAAP net income decreased from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 by $5.1 million or $0.11 per diluted share.
Gross margin for the first quarter was 12.9% compared to 16.0% in the same period a year ago. Non-GAAP gross margin for the first quarter was 13.0% compared to 16.1% in the same period a year ago. Non-GAAP gross margin was 15.5% for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012.
The Company's cash and cash equivalents and short and long term investments at September 30, 2012 were $61.3 million compared to $83.8 million at June 30, 2012. Free cash flow in the three months ended September 30, 2012 was ($27.5) million primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable to vendors.
Business Outlook & Management Commentary
The Company expects net sales of $270 million to $295 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013 ending December 31, 2012. The Company expects non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of approximately $0.12 to $0.16 for the second quarter.
“Although revenue came in at the low end of our guidance, it was 9.2% higher year over year during a period of slower macro-economic conditions which indicates our fundamental business remains strong as we deliver the industry’s leading server and storage solutions. Margins this quarter were negatively impacted by the big decline in Hard Drive and Memory prices due to the oversupply of these components in the market,” said Charles Liang, CEO of Supermicro. "We are committed to continue to grow and take market share as we leverage our new product lines including the architecture known as the Fat Twin product and our stronger position in Asia with our ramping Taiwan operation."
It is currently expected that the outlook will not be updated until the Company’s next quarterly earnings announcement, notwithstanding subsequent developments. However, the Company may update the outlook or any portion thereof at any time. Such updates will take place only by way of a news release or other broadly disseminated disclosure available to all interested parties in accordance with Regulation FD.

Non-GAAP net income and net income per share discussed in this press release exclude stock-based compensation expense and the related tax effect of the applicable items.
