The company recently reported its first $3 billion quarter -- that's more than an entire year of revenue -- back in 2021. Supermicro said it's seeing ongoing record demand for AI systems at rack scale, including the latest chips from Nvidia, Intel, and Advanced Micro Devices. Due to this momentum, Supermicro's full-year revenue forecast of at least $14.3 billion implies more than 100% growth year over year. Chief executive officer Charles Liang says we may be facing "an AI revolution" and says that high demand could continue for years.
Specifically, Supermicro is benefiting from new product launches from Nvidia, Intel, and others. The equipment maker works hand-in-hand with these companies, following their innovations and launch schedules so it can quickly make those latest features available within its systems. At the same time, Supermicro's building blocks method, which uses common elements throughout its platforms, also supports the idea of speed.
All of this means that when Nvidia or a rival launches a new chip, Supermicro can offer its platforms with that chip pretty quickly.
