Penguin Solutions' earnings crushed expectations, strengthening the bullish case. Revenue rose 48% year over year to $478.7M against a $400.7M estimate, and non-GAAP EPS came in at $0.84 versus $0.54. x.com
Penguin Solutions' selloff on a Barclays note looks like a big overreaction to a strong quarter. Revenue hit a record $478.7 million, up 48%, with Integrated Memory up 111% and non-GAAP EPS up 79% to $0.84; it added four AI infrastructure customers, became an Nvidia AI Factory Specialized Partner, and raised FY2026 revenue growth guidance to 22% from 12%. Fundamentals and future growth are far too strong to justify this price, and the convertible was actually smart and bullish. x.com x.com
Penguin Solutions looks more like memory-cycle strength dressed up as an AI pivot story, and its price has already run ahead of that story. Its legacy AI factory business was concentrated in hyperscaler hardware, and the pivot to enterprise, neocloud and sovereign customers is a rebuild that the numbers do not show yet, with longer sales cycles and delayed bookings. The IP is good, and winning qualifications could change the view, but that needs a real shift first. x.com
Penguin Solutions is growing fast on AI data center infrastructure and memory demand. Revenue grew 48% to $479M last quarter, integrated memory revenue jumped 111%, and AI-driven businesses made up 74% of sales. It raised fiscal 2026 guidance to 22% sales growth and $2.60 of adjusted EPS, and sees about 30% growth in both for fiscal 2027. x.com
Penguin Solutions is becoming a key player as memory bottlenecks in agentic AI inference drive demand, yet it trades at a reasonable forward P/E of roughly 12-25x depending on estimates. Q3 revenue hit a record $479M, up 48%, with AI-driven business at 74% of sales and up 104%. It raised fiscal 2026 guidance to about 22% sales growth and is expanding its AI Factory platform with new agentic tools. x.com
Penguin Solutions is hurting shareholders by issuing more shares while insiders sell, bringing more dilution and fewer buybacks, a pattern repeating across AI companies. A large dilution sent the stock down nearly 15% after hours before a strong AI day lifted it back. x.com x.com
Penguin Solutions can earn years of operating revenue after deploying AI clusters, making its roughly 12x FY2027 guided adjusted earnings an interesting setup if it delivers projected 55% EPS growth and adds longer-term work. Management has discussed 3–5 year neocloud engagements; 12 AI infrastructure customers expanded in FY2026. Memory pricing, customer financing and deployment delays remain risks. x.com
Penguin Solutions is riding a CXL mania that is only getting started. Six weeks of accumulation were followed by an engulfing, high-volume buying day and record earnings, putting the stock halfway to a $110 target. x.com
Penguin Solutions' price may be getting ahead of fundamentals, so it is now on a do-not-chase list. The stock has kept pumping, partly on retail hype from subscription sellers, and trades near 100x earnings after breaking out of a three-year consolidation range. It can keep running on hype alone. x.com
Penguin Solutions is a $100 stock trading at $66 after a big beat and raise the market may be underreacting to. Q4 revenue rose 68% to $566.7M versus about $520M expected, non-GAAP EPS hit $1.00 versus $0.77, and Integrated Memory grew 158%. FY27 guidance rose to about $2.43B of revenue, up 40%, and $4.45 EPS. It won six AI infrastructure customers, including a neocloud picking Penguin for a 36,000-GPU Norway build. Operating cash flow was negative $163M as inventory and receivables rose. x.com … Show more
