SAN JOSE, Calif.: Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI) (“Supermicro” or the “Company”) today announced the completion of the internal investigation led by the Company’s independent members of the Board of Directors regarding the March 2026 indictment of three individuals who were associated with the Company at that time.

As previously disclosed, Supermicro was informed on March 19, 2026 that two employees and a contractor were indicted in connection with an alleged conspiracy to commit export-control violations. Supermicro was not named as a defendant in the indictment and is not accused of any wrongdoing. The Company took swift action, and the three individuals no longer have any relationship with Supermicro.

The investigation was led by Scott Angel, the Company’s Lead Independent Director, and Tally Liu, Chair of the Board’s Audit Committee, and was conducted by Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP, which engaged AlixPartners, LLP, as an independent forensic accounting consultant (collectively, the “Independent Advisors”). The results of the investigation were reported to the independent members of the Board and to the entire Board.

The investigation team reviewed the customer transactions that were the subject of the federal indictment, as well as transactions with a selection of other customers who bought restricted products, and did not find any evidence that any current member of senior management had knowledge of the alleged diversion scheme or of any actual diversion of restricted products by the Company. Nor did the investigation find that the Company directly sold export-controlled products to known restricted parties or locations. It also did not find any evidence that the Company’s previously issued financial statements could not be relied upon based on the potential diversion of restricted products. The Company developed and maintained its export compliance program as its sales of restricted products increased during the period under review. The Company’s compliance personnel have acted in good faith, with the support of management, to mitigate the risk of the Company’s products subject to export controls being diverted to restricted parties or locations.

In connection with the investigation, the Company took several personnel actions with respect to employees within its sales, technical support and business development functions, including terminations, for failure to follow Company policies or the Company’s code of conduct.

With the assistance of the Independent Advisors, the independent directors also made recommendations to further enhance the Company’s export compliance program. The Board has adopted those recommendations in full. The Company has already implemented certain recommendations as a result of an internal review overseen by the General Counsel and the Chief Compliance Officer. The independent directors will oversee implementation of the remaining recommendations.

“We are pleased to report the conclusion of this independent investigation,” said Mr. Angel. “The independent directors support the actions the Company has already taken to bolster its internal policies and procedures, as well as the additional enhancements that will be implemented.”

Supermicro will continue working to combat the industry-wide challenge of diversion and remain committed to upholding the highest standards of compliance. In addition, the Company continues to cooperate with relevant government authorities in connection with their ongoing investigations.
