Super Micro Computer Inc. reported disappointing fourth-quarter earnings, with earnings per share (EPS) of $0.41 falling short of the $0.45 consensus estimate and revenue of $5.8 billion missing the $6 billion forecast. The company's gross margin declined sharply to 9.6%. Following the earnings release, Super Micro's stock dropped approximately 20%, reflecting investor concerns over the company's struggles to capitalize on demand for AI servers. The company also missed its first-quarter guidance, contributing to the negative market reaction, although its full-year 2026 revenue outlook exceeded estimates. CEO commentary highlighted data center demand and global growth as factors influencing the outlook. Separately, Barrick Mining Corporation reported second-quarter results with adjusted EPS of $0.47, beating estimates, but revenue of $3.68 billion was 33% below expectations. The company posted net income of $811 million, supported by stronger gold and copper production, which is expected to drive robust cash flows in the second half of the year. Despite the profit beat, Barrick's shares declined due to the revenue shortfall.
