Super Micro shares plunge 15% on weak results, disappointing guidance
Here's how the company did in comparison with LSEG consensus:
Super Micro's revenue increased 7.5% during the quarter, which ended on June 30, according to a statement.
For the current quarter, Super Micro called for 40 cents to 52 cents in adjusted earnings per share on $6 billion to $7 billion in revenue for the fiscal first quarter. Analysts surveyed by LSEG were looking for 59 cents per share and $6.6 billion in revenue.
For the 2026 fiscal year, Super Micro sees at least $33 billion in revenue, above the LSEG consensus of $29.94 billion.
Super Micro saw surging demand starting in 2023 for its data center servers packed with Nvidia for handling artificial intelligence models and workloads. Growth has since slowed.
The company avoided being delisted from the Nasdaq after falling behind on quarterly financial filings and seeing the departure of its auditor.
As of Tuesday's close, Super Micro shares were up around 88% so far in 2025, while the S&P 500 index has gained 7%.
Executives will discuss the results on a conference call starting at 5 p.m. ET.

Activist investor Starboard builds over 9% stake in Rogers
(Reuters) -Activist investor Starboard Value said on Wednesday it has built a 9.3% stake in Rogers Corp as it seeks to push for changes at the advanced materials maker. Shares of Rogers were up 10% in extended trade. However, the stock has fallen more than 30% so far this year. Rogers, which makes advanced materials used in electric and hybrid cars, automotive safety, radar systems and other industrial applications, has a market value of about $1.28 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG. Reuters reported in 2023 that the activist investor was building a sizable stake in Rogers and was seeking seats on the company's board in its push for changes. The investor said it believes shares of Rogers, at the time of purchase, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Starboard had previously entered into an agreement with Rogers regarding the composition of its board and other matters, it said in a regulatory filing. Following the agreement, Starboard has engaged in discussions with Rogers' management and board regarding opportunities for value creation. The Wall Street Journal reported that Starboard had built a stake of over 9% in Rogers earlier on Wednesday.

Why Navitas Semiconductor Stock Dropped Today
Key Points Navitas met expectations for Q2 sales and earnings last night. Nevertheless, sales fell steeply year over year, and are forecast to fall again in Q3. Analysts see little hope of Navitas turning profitable for years to come. 10 stocks we like better than Navitas Semiconductor › Navitas Semiconductor (NASDAQ: NVTS), maker of power chips for charging electric devices, tumbled 15.2% through 10:30 a.m. ET Tuesday despite fulfilling analyst predictions in its second-quarter earnings report last night. Heading into the report, analysts forecast Navitas would lose $0.05 per share -- and it did. They also predicted sales would be about $14.4 million; Navitas reported nearly $14.5 million in sales. All of which sounds fine to me, so why is the stock down so much today? Navitas' Q2 earnings Turning to the report itself, here's what you'll find: Revenue may have met expectations, but it was still down more than 29% year over year. And although Navitas met expectations on earnings (i.e., losses) as well, the nickel it says it lost in the quarter was only a non-GAAP (adjusted) number. Earnings as calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), in contrast, showed a loss of $0.25 per share. That's twice the sum Navitas lost per share a year ago. It's also 5 times the $0.05-per-share loss Wall Street is talking about. Is Navitas stock a sell? Management tried to put a brave face on this miserable result, with CEO Gene Sheridan insisting that "despite industrywide headwinds [he is] pleased with our teams' Q2 performance," and continuing to focus on making chips for the popular artificial intelligence and energy sectors. Meanwhile, though, the business keeps shrinking. Management forecast sales in Q3 will be only $10 million and, even non-GAAP, the company expects to continue losing money -- and probably not just in Q3. According to analysts polled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, losses will continue as far as the eye can see, to 2028 at least, and probably beyond. It's hard for me to recommend buying a stock like that. Should you buy stock in Navitas Semiconductor right now?
