Super Micro shares drop 4% despite strong quarter amid margin concerns and data center restrictions.

Super Micro reported a strong Q1 FY2027 with revenue and earnings surpassing expectations, but its stock fell 4% due to worries over shrinking profit margins and heavy reliance on one large AI data center customer. The company raised its full-year revenue outlook but forecasted lower gross margins as AI installations, which have lower margins, make up a larger share of sales. Additionally, voter opposition to new data center construction, especially in Texas, adds uncertainty to future growth. Rival companies Dell and Hewlett Packard Enterprise also saw stock declines, reflecting broader investor caution in the AI server market.

As of Nov 05, 2026 01:01 WIB, Super Micro Computer Inc (SMCI) trades at USD 30.29 on Pluang, down 3.50% for the day with a market cap of $20.62 billion. Dell Technologies (DELL) is also down sharply by 8.23%, priced at USD 374.72, while Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) falls 6.11% to USD 49.83. Notably, Dell has the largest market cap among the three at $259.67 billion, reflecting significant investor caution in this sector.
