Super Micro Computer Inc. gave a sales forecast in the current period that fell short of estimates, disappointing investors after the server maker last week released lackluster preliminary quarterly results for the previous quarter.
Revenue will be $5.6 billion to $6.4 billion in the quarter ending in June, the company said Tuesday in a statement. Earnings, excluding some items, will be 40 cents to 50 cents a share. Analysts, on average, projected profit of 64 cents on sales of $6.59 billion.
