Super Micro Computer Inc SEC Filings

Form 4 overview – Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI)

On 07/01/2025, Don W. Clegg, the company’s Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales, reported a series of routine equity transactions linked to previously granted restricted stock units (RSUs). Key points:

• RSU vesting & exercises (Code “M”): Four tranches of RSUs were converted into a total of 11,305 common shares (7,960 + 800 + 660 + 1,885).
• Shares withheld for taxes (Code “F”): 5,163 shares were automatically surrendered at $47.20 per share to satisfy statutory tax-withholding obligations.
• Net change in ownership: After the transactions, Clegg’s direct holdings increased by 6,142 shares to 41,447 shares.
• Split adjustment: Footnote 2 clarifies that the RSU amounts reflect the 10-for-1 forward stock split effective 09/30/2024.
• Remaining un-vested RSUs: Clegg still beneficially owns derivative interests covering 7,960; 1,600; 1,320; and 5,657 RSUs that continue to vest annually through 2028, contingent on continued service.

No open-market sales were reported; all disposals were tax-related. The filing signals continued equity accumulation by a key executive but does not indicate a change in strategic outlook or corporate fundamentals.

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI) – Form 4 filing (06/30/2025): Director Tally C. Liu converted 1,580 restricted stock units (RSUs) that fully vested on 06/30/2025 into an equal number of common shares. The RSUs had previously been reported at one-tenth the size but were adjusted for SMCI’s 10-for-1 forward split effective 09/30/2024. Following the transaction, Liu now holds 285,300 SMCI common shares directly and no remaining derivative units. Transaction code “M” indicates the shares were acquired through the settlement of an equity award rather than an open-market purchase. The filing signals continued insider equity ownership alignment but does not involve cash outlay or a sale of shares, and the magnitude (<1% of Liu’s holdings and immaterial to SMCI’s float) is modest.

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI) – Form 4 insider filing

Director Susan Mogensen reported the conversion of 2,960 restricted stock units into common shares on 30 June 2025 (transaction code M). The RSUs fully vested the same day and were settled for stock at no cash cost. Following the transaction, the director’s direct ownership increased to 3,280 common shares. No open-market sales were disclosed and all derivative units related to this grant are now exhausted.

The share count reflects the company’s 10-for-1 forward split effective 30 September 2024, which multiplied previously reported awards by ten.

• Insider type: Independent director
• Shares acquired: 2,960 (post-split basis)
• Total shares now held: 3,280
• Transaction price: $0 (RSU settlement)

The filing signals routine equity compensation vesting rather than discretionary purchasing, but the absence of sales removes immediate selling pressure and marginally aligns director incentives with shareholders.
