$Super Micro Computer(SMCI.US)$In the 2022.6.16 analysis, it was selected because of the large discount on the valuation, and the stock price has increased 20 times so far. Unfortunately, my position two years ago was very light, and I withdrew after making 50% profit, missing out on a good 10x share.
Performance has improved dramatically due to the recent outbreak of artificial intelligence, but the cash flow performance is not good. The main thing is that inventory is growing too fast. Currently, the inventory level is slightly higher than a quarter's revenue, and the ratio is slightly higher. Gross margin has increased over the past 5 years, reaching 18% in 2023, and net profit reaching 9%. Current PE Ratio is TTM49.2. It is estimated that performance will continue to grow for some time, but considering the cyclical nature of the industry, the current entry period is risky and we will wait and see.
