Super Micro's $19B quarter surprise lifts case for buying Nvidia stock at $220

Super Micro Computer raised its guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2027, saying revenue should reach $18.5 billion to $19.5 billion. In August, it had forecast $14.5 billion to $15.5 billion. The server maker credited "increased demand for AI platforms," and its shares rose about 9%. The midpoint of about $19 billion is almost four times the $5.0 billion it posted a year earlier. It now expects a gross margin of 12% to 12.5%, up from an earlier outlook of 10.4% to 10.8%. The figures are preliminary and unaudited. Full results are due November 3. Super Micro leads its AI lineup with Nvidia's Blackwell systems, so the result bodes well for Nvidia, which has forecast $108.0 billion in revenue for its fiscal third quarter. Nvidia trades near $220, about 14 times expected fiscal 2028 earnings.

Supermicro launches liquid-cooled 256-CPU Nvidia Vera rack for 22,500 agentic AI sandboxes

Super Micro Computer announced the NVIDIA Vera CPU rack on October 22, 2026, a 100% liquid-cooled system for agentic AI, reinforcement learning, and data processing. It is the latest addition to the company's Data Center Building Block Solutions (DCBBS) portfolio. The rack holds 256 NVIDIA Vera CPUs, with 22,528 cores and 45,056 threads. It supports up to 22,500 concurrent agent sandboxes. It can run standalone or alongside the Vera Rubin NVL72, which is now shipping. NVIDIA BlueField-4 DPUs handle networking and security, and the rack supports NVIDIA's OpenShell Reference Architecture to monitor and govern agent behaviour. Customers can power the rack with a traditional AC feed or an 800 VDC sidecar rack that uses battery backup units. The rack is available to quote now.

Supermicro and Nokia bring NVIDIA AI-RAN computing to the network edge

Supermicro is working with Nokia to deploy AI radio access networks (AI-RAN), from distributed cell sites to centralised network hubs. The system pairs Nokia's RAN technology with the NVIDIA Aerial RAN Computer (ARC) platform and Supermicro's AI-optimised infrastructure. Placing accelerated compute closer to the access network lets operators run radio and AI workloads on shared infrastructure. It supports low-latency uses such as voice AI, vision AI, physical AI, and autonomous network operations, and offers a path to 6G. Supermicro's servers for NVIDIA ARC are available now. The ARC MGX 2U with dual Vera processor will follow later this year. The 2U ARC-Pro goes to customer testing later this year, with general availability in the first half of 2027.

Super Micro unveils OCP-based AI systems and names Mark Long CFO as market value hits $20.8B

Super Micro Computer (SMCI) has launched new AI and high performance computing data center products based on Open Compute Project (OCP) standards, aimed at rack-scale deployments. The expanded OCP Accepted portfolio covers systems, racks, liquid cooling gear, and networking hardware for dense, energy-efficient AI clusters. The US server and storage vendor, which has a market value of $20.8 billion, also named Mark Long as chief financial officer. Long previously worked at Western Digital, Hitachi's storage arm, and in investment banking, and has run large mergers and acquisitions programmes. The company aims to act more like a full data center supplier, alongside Dell and HPE. Its 149-day cash cycle remains a concern as it scales complex deployments.
