On August 27, 2024, Hindenburg Research released a report that raised serious concerns about Super Micro's accounting practices and corporate governance. The report alleges issues such as improper revenue recognition and the rehiring of executives previously involved in accounting scandals.
The report notes, “Less than three months after settling with the SEC for $17.5 million, Super Micro began rehiring top executives implicated in the accounting scandal, according to litigation records and interviews with former employees.” Hindenburg Research also pointed out problems with Super Micro’s transactions involving related parties. Specifically, it highlighted that CEO Charles Liang’s brothers control suppliers Ablecom and Compuware, which have received $983 million over the past three years. These transactions, described as circular, involve undisclosed dealings that could affect revenue recognition and reported margins.
The integrity of Super Micro was further questioned regarding its trade with sanctioned countries. Despite a guilty plea for exporting prohibited components to Iran in 2006 and promises of compliance with U.S. export bans following the invasion of Ukraine, the report suggests that exports to Russia have increased, potentially breaching sanctions.
In response to the report, Super Micro’s stock price fell by 4.5% in midday trading on August 27, 2024.
