Penguin Solutions (Nasdaq: PENG) has signed a definitive agreement to sell its Cree LED business to Transom Capital Group for cash. The company expects the transaction to close in the first calendar quarter of 2027, subject to customary closing conditions. Penguin says the sale will concentrate its portfolio and capital allocation on data center AI infrastructure and memory.
Penguin reaffirmed its fiscal 2027 outlook, which includes a full year of Cree LED results representing approximately 10% of projected company net sales. It expects to update that outlook after closing to reflect the divestiture and related financial impacts. Underlying growth and demand expectations for AI infrastructure and memory remain unchanged. Net sales grew 58% year over year in the second half of fiscal 2026, with earnings growing substantially faster than revenue.
Penguin Solutions (Nasdaq: PENG) will demonstrate its Full-Stack AI Factory Platform at SC26 in Chicago on November 15–20, 2026.
The company will exhibit at booth #1723 at McCormick Place, covering infrastructure software, accelerated computing, memory technologies and operational services. Demonstrations will include OriginAI reference designs, ClusterWareAI cluster management and MemoryAI KV Cache Server. Penguin Solutions will also share insights from customer deployments and give technical presentations on sovereign AI infrastructure, photonics and disaggregated memory.
Penguin Solutions (Nasdaq: PENG) introduced new SMART Modular memory modules designed for next-generation AI data centers, expanding its memory portfolio.
The DDR5 Multi-Ranked Dual In-line Memory Modules, or MRDIMMs, run at DDR5-12800 speeds and combine two physical memory ranks into one logical rank. Penguin says this architecture increases bandwidth compared with standard registered memory modules. Optional Zefr high-reliability testing screens the memory under simulated demanding operating conditions to help identify potential timing and electrical signal issues.
Axe Compute (AGPU) signed a multi-year partnership with Penguin Solutions to expand delivery capacity for its build-to-order AI infrastructure program.
The collaboration is intended to accelerate production of more than $3.45 billion in contracted customer AI infrastructure projects globally. Axe Compute selected Penguin for multiple sites, including large GPU clusters, that Axe Compute designs, owns and operates. Penguin will provide deployment and operational services for specified sites, including ClusterWareAI software and 24x7 network operations center coverage. Axe Compute expects the added capacity to speed delivery and allow it to take on more Build projects.
