Net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 was $7.6 million

Business Outlook & Management Commentary
The Company expects net sales of $175 million to $185 million for the
third quarter of fiscal year 2010 ending March 31, 2010. The industry
has historically seen a seasonally lower rate of growth in net sales in
the fiscal third quarter. This quarter we have a good boost because of
our very strong new product innovations, additional new market segment
wins and a recovering economy offset in part by seasonality and the
transition to new products. The Company expects non-GAAP earnings per
diluted common share of approximately $0.18 to $0.21 for the third
quarter.
"Our second quarter was a record quarter for Supermicro and we grew
22.5% from the prior quarter, continuing our momentum of growth and
profitability as the global economy recovers. Our growth is a result of
the strongest and most extensive product lines that we have ever had at
Supermicro, which enables us to be more competitive and gain more market
share in larger deployment deals. Supermicro continues to benefit from
our offerings that our customers value in this economy, especially
maximizing performance per watt and per dollar. We continue to extend
the Supermicro brand as a technology leader. Our pipeline of technology
innovations and our rapid product development ability make us feel very
confident that we are in the technology leading position in the
industry," said Charles Liang, President and Chief Executive Officer of
Super Micro Computer.
It is currently expected that the outlook will be released at the
Company's next quarterly earnings announcement, notwithstanding
subsequent developments. 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.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements
Statements contained in this press release that are not historical fact
may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements may relate, among other
things, to our expected financial and operating results, our ability to
build and grow Super Micro Computer, the benefits of our products and
our ability to achieve our goals, plans and objectives. Such
forward-looking statements do not constitute guarantees of future
performance and are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that
could cause our actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated. These include, but are not limited to: our dependence on
continued growth in the markets for X86, blade servers and embedded
applications, increased competition, difficulties of predicting timing,
introduction and customer acceptance of new products, poor product
sales, difficulties in establishing and maintaining successful
relationships with our distributors and vendors, shortages or price
fluctuations in our supply chain, our ability to protect our
intellectual property rights, our ability to control the rate of
expansion domestically and internationally, difficulty managing rapid
growth and general political, economic and market conditions and events.
Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those projected or suggested in any forward-looking statements are
contained in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including those factors discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in
such filings.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP gross margin discussed in this press release excludes
stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP net income and net income per
common share discussed in this press release exclude stock-based
compensation expense, a provision for litigation loss and the related
tax effect of the applicable items. Management presents non-GAAP
financial measures because it considers them to be important
supplemental measures of performance. Management uses the non-GAAP
financial measures for planning purposes, including analysis of the
Company's performance against prior periods, the preparation of
operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and
capital investments. Management also believes that the non-GAAP
financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors
in evaluating the Company's financial and operational performance.
However, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an
analytical tool, and are not intended to be an alternative to financial
measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements
of SEC Regulation G, detailed reconciliations between the Company's GAAP
and non-GAAP financial results is provided at the end of this press
release. Investors are advised to carefully review and consider this
information as well as the GAAP financial results that are disclosed in
the Company's SEC filings.
