Super Micro Computer reported a surging profit as sales nearly doubled in the fiscal fourth quarter.
The server company on Tuesday reported a profit of $1.17 billion, or $1.62 a share, in the quarter ended June 30. That compares with a profit of $195.2 million, or 31 cents a share, in the year-ago period.
Stripping out certain one-time items, adjusted earnings were $1.70 a share. Analysts polled by FactSet were expecting 92 cents a share.

Shares of Super Micro jumped 8.6% to $34.33 in after-hours trading on Tuesday, after closing up 0.5% at $31.60.
The company reported a gross margin of 17.5%. Last month, it said its gross margins would be higher than expected, between 15% and 17%, thanks to a favorable customer and product mix.
"Our Total AI/IT Solutions strategy continues to deliver strong results, we added several hundred enterprise and other customers in the past year, generated more than $60 billion in new orders, and booked record backlog entering fiscal 2027," Chief Executive Officer Charles Liang said.
Super Micro forecast fiscal year 2027 net sales of between $65 billion and $72 billion. Analysts currently expect $52.99 billion.
For the current fiscal fourth quarter, the company is projecting adjusted earnings between $1.01 and $1.10 a share on net sales between $14.5 billion and $15.5 billion.
Analysts are expecting first-quarter adjusted earnings of 72 cents a share on $11.82 billion in net sales.
