Super Micro’s Looming Nasdaq Deadline Stokes Delisting Fears

(Bloomberg) — Super Micro Computer Inc. investors have spent two months waiting for the company to file a plan that would allow it to remain listed on the Nasdaq exchange. With the deadline now just days away, that plan is yet to materialize.

Most Read from Bloomberg

The server maker has until Monday, Nov. 18, to either file a delayed 10-K annual report or submit a plan to file the form to Nasdaq to be in compliance with the exchange’s rules. Super Micro’s original deadline for filing the plan was Saturday, Nov. 16 but in accordance with the Nasdaq’s rules: If the last day of the period is a Saturday, Sunday, federal or Nasdaq holiday, the period then runs until the end of the next day that is not one of those days.

“As we previously disclosed, Super Micro intends to take all necessary steps to achieve compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements as soon as possible,” a Super Micro spokesman said. Shares of Super Micro were up as much as 2.8% in early trading on Friday.

Super Micro delayed its annual filing in August following a damaging report from short seller Hindenburg Research. The company is also facing a US Department of Justice probe, and its auditor, Ernst & Young LLP, resigned in October, citing concerns about Super Micro’s governance and transparency.

This week, Super Micro postponed filing its quarterly 10-Q form for the period ending Sept. 30. The company also said that the committee its board formed to review internal controls had finished its investigation stemming from concerns raised by Ernst & Young, and that while it “has other work that is ongoing” it expects the review to be completed soon.

“Whatever the results are would probably play into whatever their plan is” to hire a new auditor and file their financial reports, Matt Bryson, an analyst at Wedbush, said by phone. “I wouldn’t be shocked if something comes out over the next couple of days.”

Super Micro shares have tumbled nearly 70% since announcing it would be delaying its annual filing in August. The losses are even steeper when measured from the stock’s record high in March. More than $55 billion in value has been erased over that span as Super Micro shares plunged 85%.

If the company submits a plan that Nasdaq approves, its deadline to file will likely get extended into February. If a plan is not approved, the company can appeal the decision. Nasdaq declined to comment.

Nvidia not only offers AI GPUs, but also a software platform, Cuda, used for AI model development and training. Nvidia is also expanding its data center networking solutions, helping to tie GPUs together to handle complex workloads.

Company P/E P/B P/S ROE EBITDA (in billions) Gross Profit (in billions) Revenue Growth
NVIDIA Corp 68.80 61.90 37.95 30.94% $19.71 $22.57 122.4%
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd 30.23 8.02 11.98 8.36% $360.77 $439.35 38.95%

Microchip Technology Inc 45.56 5.61 6.49 1.24% $0.34 $0.67 -48.37%
ON Semiconductor Corp 16.63 3.32 3.95 4.75% $0.63 $0.8 -19.21%
Monolithic Power Systems Inc 65.03 11.96 13.84 6.35% $0.17 $0.34 30.59%

Skyworks Solutions Inc 17.36 2.12 3.10 1.9% $0.25 $0.36 -15.47%
MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings Inc 121.88 8.12 12.78 2.67% $0.04 $0.1 5.37%
Universal Display Corp 33.43 4.98 12.32 4.29% $0.08 $0.13 14.57%
Lattice Semiconductor Corp 49.64 9.93 12.47 1.03% $0.03 $0.09 -33.87%
Average 62.38 6.58 9.85 3.5% $23.05 $27.1 5.78%

By analyzing NVIDIA, we can infer the following trends:

  • At 68.8, the stock’s Price to Earnings ratio significantly exceeds the industry average by 1.1x, suggesting a premium valuation relative to industry peers.

  • It could be trading at a premium in relation to its book value, as indicated by its Price to Book ratio of 61.9 which exceeds the industry average by 9.41x.

  • With a relatively high Price to Sales ratio of 37.95, which is 3.85x the industry average, the stock might be considered overvalued based on sales performance.

  • With a Return on Equity (ROE) of 30.94% that is 27.44% above the industry average, it appears that the company exhibits efficient use of equity to generate profits.

  • The company has lower Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) of $19.71 Billion, which is 0.86x below the industry average. This potentially indicates lower profitability or financial challenges.

  • With lower gross profit of $22.57 Billion, which indicates 0.83x below the industry average, the company may experience lower revenue after accounting for production costs.

  • The company is experiencing remarkable revenue growth, with a rate of 122.4%, outperforming the industry average of 5.78%.

Debt To Equity Ratio

debt to equity

The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio is an important measure to assess the financial structure and risk profile of a company.

Considering the debt-to-equity ratio in industry comparisons allows for a concise evaluation of a company’s financial health and risk profile, aiding in informed decision-making.

By evaluating NVIDIA against its top 4 peers in terms of the Debt-to-Equity ratio, the following observations arise:

  • NVIDIA has a stronger financial position compared to its top 4 peers, as evidenced by its lower debt-to-equity ratio of 0.17.

  • This suggests that the company has a more favorable balance between debt and equity, which can be perceived as a positive indicator by investors.

Key Takeaways

For NVIDIA, the PE, PB, and PS ratios are all high compared to its peers in the Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment industry, indicating that the stock may be overvalued based on these metrics. On the other hand, the high ROE and revenue growth suggest strong performance and potential for future growth. However, the low EBITDA and gross profit numbers may raise concerns about the company’s operational efficiency and profitability compared to industry peers.
