Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the FASB issued authoritative guidance, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The guidance also establishes (1) a general contract modification principle that entities can apply in other areas that may be affected by reference rate reform and (2) certain elective hedge accounting expedients. The amendments in this update do not apply to contract modifications made after December 31, 2022, new hedging relationships entered into after December 31, 2022, and existing hedging relationships evaluated for effectiveness in periods after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022 that apply certain optional expedients in which the accounting effects are recorded through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendment is effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued further guidance on this topic, which clarified the scope and application of the original guidance. In December 2022, FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) for the deferral of the sunset date of Topic 848 and amendments to the definition of secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR"). The ASU defers the sunset date of Topic 848 to December 31, 2024. The Company has loans and lines of credit with various financial institutions. Benchmark interest rates are used to calculate the interest on borrowings under the Chang Hwa Bank, CTBC, HSBC and Mega Bank Credit Facilities. LIBOR iswas used to calculate the interest on borrowings under the Company's 2018 Bank of America Credit Facility and E.SUN Credit Facility. The 2018 Bank of America Credit Facility was amended on June 28, 2021 which providedto provide for a new maturity date of June 28, 2026 and fallback terms related to LIBOR replacement mechanics. On March 3, 2022, the 2018 Bank of America Credit Facility was amended to, among other items, increase the size of the facility from $200.0 million to $350.0 million and update provisions relating to payments and LIBOR replacement mechanics to SOFR. As these amendments had other contemporaneous changes to the amendment had changesfacility, including the amount of borrowings permitted under the facility and not just directly related to LIBOR replacement, optional expedients under this guidance cannot be elected. The Company is currently evaluating the overall impact of the adoption of thethis guidance and does not expect it to have material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Contract Balances

Generally, the payment terms of the Company’s offerings range from 30 to 60 days. In certain instances, customers may prepay for products and services in advance of delivery. Receivables relate to the Company’s unconditional right to consideration for performance obligations either partially or fully completed.

Contract assets are rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to a customer when such right is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Such contract assets are insignificant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and relate to amounts invoiced to or advance consideration received from customers, which precede the Company’s satisfaction of the associated performance obligation(s).obligations. The Company’s deferred revenue primarily results from customer payments received upfront for extended warranties and on-site services because these performance obligations are satisfied over time. Additionally, at times, deferred revenue may fluctuate due to the timing of advance consideration received from non-cancellable non-refundable contract liabilities relating to the sale of future products. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended December 31, 2021,2022, which was included in the opening deferred revenue balance as of June 30, 20212022, of $202.3$233.8 million, was $26.7$27.5 million and $56.7$61.0 million, respectively.

Deferred revenue increased $50.2$46.2 million as of December 31, 20212022 as compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 of which $37.8 million2022 and was mainly due to the deferral on invoiced amounts for service contracts during the period exceeded the recognition of revenue from contracts entered into in prior periods. The service contracts deferral increase was offset partly by a $2.4 million decrease in non-cancellable non-refundable advance consideration or cash consideration received from customers which precedespreceded the Company's satisfaction of the associated performance obligations relating to product sales that the Company expectsexpected to fulfillbe fulfilled in the next 12 months.months.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent in aggregate the amount of transaction price that has been allocated to performance obligations not delivered, or only partially undelivered,delivered, as of the end of the reporting period. The Company applies the exemption to not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. These performance obligations generally consist of services, such as on-site services, including integration services and extended warranty services that are contracted for one year or less, and products for which control has not yet been transferred. The value of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of December 31, 20212022 was $252.6280.0 million. The Company expects to recognize approximately 56%43% of remaining performance obligations as revenue in the next 12 months, and the remainder thereafter.

Capitalized Contract Acquisition Costs and Fulfillment Cost

Contract acquisition costs are those incremental costs that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. Contract acquisition costs consist primarily of incentive bonuses. Contract acquisition costs are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining and fulfilling a contract with a customer and are therefore capitalizable. The Company applies the practical expedient to expense incentive bonus costs as incurred if the amortization period would be one year or less, generally upon delivery of the associated server and storage systems or components. Where the amortization period of the contract cost would be more than a year, the Company applies judgment in the allocation of the incentive bonus cost asset between hardware and service performance obligations and expenses the cost allocated to the hardware performance obligations upon delivery of associated server and storage systems or components and amortizes the cost allocated to service performance obligations over the period the services are expected to be provided. Contract acquisition costs allocated to service performance obligations that are subject to capitalization are insignificant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Contract fulfillment costs consist of costs paid in advance for outsourced services provided by third parties to the extent they are not in the scope of other guidance. Fulfillment costs paid in advance for outsourced services provided by third parties are capitalized and amortized over the period the services are expected to be provided. Such fulfillment costs are insignificant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

With respect to the manufacturing aspects of the relationship, Ablecom purchases most of materials needed to manufacture the chassis from third parties and the Company provides certain components used in the manufacturing process (such as power supplies) to Ablecom through consignment or sales transactions. Ablecom uses these materials and components to manufacture the completed chassis and then sell them back to the Company. For the components purchased from the Company, Ablecom sells the components back to the Company at a price equal to the price at which the Company sold the components to Ablecom. The Company and Ablecom frequently review and negotiate the prices of the chassis the Company purchases from Ablecom. In addition to inventory purchases, the Company also incurs other costs associated with design services, tooling and other miscellaneous costs from Ablecom.

The Company’s exposure to financial loss as a result of its involvement with Ablecom is limited to potential losses on its purchase orders in the event of an unforeseen decline in the market price and/or demand of the Company’s products such that the Company incurs a loss on the sale or cannot sell the products. Outstanding cancellable and non-cancellable purchase orders from the Company to Ablecom on December 31, 2022 were $49.4$27.4 million and $40.2$26.8 million, at December 31, 2021respectively, and outstanding cancellable and non-cancellable purchase orders from the Company to Ablecom on June 30, 2021,2022 were $39.5 million and $36.0 million, respectively, effectively representing the exposure to financial loss. The Company does not directly or indirectly guarantee any obligations of Ablecom, or any losses that the equity holders of Ablecom may suffer. Since Ablecom manufactures substantially all the chassis that the Company incorporates into its products, if Ablecom were to suddenly be unable to manufacture chassis for the Company, the Company’s business could suffer if the Company is unable to quickly qualify substitute suppliers who can supply high-quality chassis to the Company in volume and at acceptable prices.

Determining Fair Value

The Company's fair value of RSUs and PRSUs is based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-option-pricing model. This fair value is then amortized ratably over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The key inputs in using the Black-Scholes-option-pricing model were as follows:

Expected Term—The Company’s expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on the Company's historical experience.

Expected Volatility—Expected volatility is based on the Company's implied and historical volatility.

Expected Dividend—The Black-Scholes valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input and the Company has no plans to pay dividends.

Risk-Free Interest Rate—The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation method is based on the United States Treasury zero coupon issues in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of option.

The fair value of stock option grants for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Stock Option Activity

In March 2021, the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) approved the grant of a stock option award for 1,000,000 shares of common stock shares to the Company’s CEO (the “2021 CEO Performance Stock Option”). The 2021 CEO Performance Stock Option has 5five vesting tranches with a vesting schedule based entirely on the attainment of operational milestones (performance conditions) and market conditions, assuming (1) continued employment either as the CEO or in such capacity as agreed upon between the Company’s CEO and the Board of Directors and (2) service through each vesting date. Each of the 5five vesting tranches of the 2021 CEO Performance Stock Option will vest upon certification by the Compensation Committee that both (i) the market price milestone for such tranche, which begins at $45.00 per share for the first tranche and increases up to $120.00 per share thereafter (based on a 60 calendartrading day trailing average counting only trading days)stock price), has been achieved, and (ii) any one of the following 5five operational milestones focused on total revenue, as reported under U.S. GAAP, have been achieved for the previous 4four consecutive fiscal quarters. Upon vesting and exercise, including the payment of the exercise price of $45.00 per share, prior to March 2, 2024, the Company’s CEO must hold shares that he acquires until March 2, 2024, other than those shares sold pursuant to a cashless exercise where shares are simultaneously sold to pay for the exercise price and any required tax withholding.

The achievement status of the operational and stock price milestones as of December 31, 2021 was as follows:

On the grant date, a Monte Carlo simulation was used to determine for each tranche (i) a fixed expense amount for such tranche and (ii) the future time when the market price milestone for such tranche was expected to be achieved, or its “expected market price milestone achievement time.” Separately, based on a subjective assessment of the Company’s future financial performance, each quarter, the Company will determine whether achievement is probable for each operational milestone that has not previously been achieved or deemed probable of achievement, and, if so, the future time when the Company expects to achieve that operational milestone, or its “expected operational milestone achievement time.” When the Company first determines that an operational milestone has become probable of being achieved, the Company will allocate the entire expense for the related tranche over the number of quarters between the grant date and the then-applicable “expected vesting time.” The “expected vesting time” at any given time is the later of (i) the expected operational milestone achievement time (if the related operational milestone has not yet been achieved) and (ii) the expected market price milestone achievement time (if the related market price milestone has not yet been achieved). The Company will immediately recognize a catch-up expense for all accumulated expenses from the grant date through the quarter in which the operational milestone was first deemed probable of being achieved. Each quarter thereafter, the Company will recognize the prorated portion of the then-remaining expense for the tranche based on the number of quarters between such quarter and the then-applicable expected vesting time, except that upon vesting of a tranche, all remaining expenses for that tranche will be immediately recognized.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized compensation expense related to the 2021 CEO Performance Stock Option of $1.9 million and $3.2 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized compensation expense related to the 2021 CEO Performance Stock Option of $2.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively. No compensation expense related to the 2021 CEO Performance Stock Option was recognized during the three and six months ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 20212022 and June 30, 2021,2022, the Company had $6.7$2.4 million and $10.5$5.6 million, respectively, in unrecognized compensation cost related to the 2021 CEO Performance Stock Option. The unrecognized compensation cost as of December 31, 20212022 is expected to be recognized over a period of fivemore than 1.50 years.

Note 10.        Income Taxes

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $29.6 million and $68.5 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, and $7.6 million and $10.9 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively,respectively. The effective tax rate was 14.3% and $5.1 million and $8.8 million15.9% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate was2022, respectively, and 15.4% and 14.1% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively, and 14.9% and 13.9% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2022 is lower than that for the three months ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to an increase in the tax deduction for stock compensation, and a tax reserve release in the three months ended December 31, 2022. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2022 is higher than that for the six months ended December 31, 2021, is higher than that for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, primarily due to a decreasethe significant increase in taxable income in the first two quarters of fiscal year 2023, while the income tax deductions for items such as the R&D credit and foreign tax deduction from foreign-derived intangible income and anin those quarters did not increase in certain non-deductible expenses.the same proportion.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminated the option to deduct research and development ("R&D") expenses in the year incurred and instead requires taxpayers to capitalize R&D expenses, including software development cost, and subsequently amortize such expenses over five years for R&D activities conducted in the United States and over fifteen years for R&D activities conducted outside of the United States beginning in the Company's fiscal year 2023. Although Congress has considered legislation that would defer, modify, and repeal the capitalization and amortization requirement, there is no assurance the provision will be deferred, repealed, or otherwise modified.

As of December 31, 2021,2022, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $45.1$41.1 million, of which, $28.4$23.4 million if recognized, would affect the Company's effective tax rate. During the six months ended December 31, 2021,2022, there was a $4.4$3.9 million increasedecrease in gross unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’sCompany's policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for taxes on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2021,2022, the Company had accrued $2.9$3.3 million of interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act provides temporary relief from certain aspects of the 2017 Tax Reform Act that imposed limitations on the utilization of certain losses, interest expense deductions and alternative minimum tax credits and made a technical correction to the 2017 Tax Reform Act related to the depreciable life of qualified improvement property. The CARES Act does not have a material impact on the Company.

The Company has determined that its foreign undistributed earnings are indefinitely reinvested except for undistributed earnings related to the Company's operations in the Netherlands. The Company may repatriate certain foreign earnings from the Netherlands that have been previously taxed in the U.S. The tax impact of such repatriation is estimated to be immaterial.

The Company believes that it has adequately provided reserves for all uncertain tax positions; however, amounts that may be asserted by tax authorities could be greater or less than the Company’sCompany's current position. Accordingly, the Company’sCompany's provision onfor federal, state, and foreign tax related matters to be recorded in the future may change as revised estimates are made or as the underlying matters are settled or otherwise resolved.

The federal statute of limitations remains open in general for tax years ended June 30, 20182019 through 2021.2022. Various states statutes of limitations remain open in general for tax years ended June 30, 20172018 through 2021.2022. Certain statutes of limitations in major foreign jurisdictions remain open in general for the tax years ended June 30, 20162017 through 2021.2022. It is reasonably possible that the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by approximately $1.0$3.0 million, in the next 12 months, due to the lapse of the statute of limitations. These adjustments, if recognized, would positively impact the Company's effective tax rate, and would be recognized as additional tax benefits.

Super Micro Computer, Inc., et al., No. 18-cv-00838 and United Union of Roofers v. Super Micro Computer, Inc., et al., No. 18-cv-00850)18-cv-00850). The complaints contain similar allegations, claiming that the defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act due to alleged misrepresentations and/or omissions in public statements regarding recognition of revenue. The court subsequently appointed New York Hotel Trades Council & Hotel Association of New York City, Inc. Pension Fund as lead plaintiff. The lead plaintiff then filed an amended complaint naming the Company's Senior Vice President of Investor Relations as an additional defendant.

On July 26, 2019, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On March 23, 2020, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the complaint, with leave for lead plaintiff to file an amended complaint within 30 days. On April 22, 2020, lead plaintiff filed a further amended complaint. On June 15,5, 2020, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the further amended complaint, the hearing for which was calendared for September 23, 2020; however, the Court held a conference on September 15 to discuss how the Court could efficiently address the recent SEC settlement agreement. The parties stipulated to allow plaintiffs to further amend the complaint solely to add allegations relating to the SEC settlement. On October 14, 2020, plaintiffs filed a Fourth Amended Complaint. On October 28, 2020, defendants filed a supplemental motion to dismiss. On March 29, 2021, the Court granted in part and denied in part defendants’ motions to dismiss. Plaintiffs’ claims under Sections 10(b) and 20 of the Exchange Act were dismissed with prejudice as against the Company’s former head of Investor Relations, Perry Hayes.

On May 25, 2022, the Court hasvacated the hearing on preliminary approval of the proposed settlement scheduled for June 2, 2022, stating that the unopposed motion was suitable for disposition without oral argument. All settlement funds have been transferred into an account controlled by the settlement’s escrow agent. No settlement funds will be distributed until the Court grants final approval. On November 8, 2022, the Court granted preliminary approval and calendared a hearing on class certificationMarch 2, 2023 for April 21, 2022. The Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously.

On October 27, 2020, certain current and former directors and officers of the Company were named as defendants in a putative derivative lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara (the “Court”), captioned Barry v. Liang, et al., 20-CV-372190. The Company was also named as a nominal defendant. The complaint purports to allege claims for breaches of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment arising out of allegations that the Company’s officers and directors caused the Company to issue false and misleading statements about recognition of revenue and the effectiveness of its internal controls, failed to adopt and implement effective internal controls, and failed to timely file various reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Defendants filed demurrers, which were set for hearing on August 4, 2021, but which were continued to September 15, 2021. Following this continuance, on July 21, 2021, Plaintiffs' counsel filed an amended complaint in lieu of responding to the demurrer. The amended complaint added no new claims; primarily, the amendment added allegations describing the March 29, 2021 motion to dismiss decision in the Hessefort class action. Defendants demurred to the amended complaint on August 24, 2021, and the Court has continued the hearing to March 23, 2022. The case is otherwise currently stayed. The Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously.

On May 5, 2021, certain current and former directors and officers of the Company were named as defendants in a putative derivative lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Stein v. Liang, et al., Case No. 3:21-cv-03357-KAW (the “Stein Derivative Action”). The Company was also named as a nominal defendant.

On September 29, 2021, the parties submitted a stipulation for dismissal with prejudice as to the named plaintiff to the Court for itsfinal approval. On December 16, 2021, the Court issued an order for the parties to submit within 30 days a plan of notice of dismissal for the Court’s approval. The Company provided notice as requiredThis settlement, if finally approved by the Court, on December 21, 2021.

However, the Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance coverage to reduce its exposure to such obligations.

Purchase CommitmentsThe Company has agreements to purchase inventory and non-inventory items primarily through the next 12 months. As of December 31, 2021,2022, these remaining noncancelable commitments were $816.0$422.9 million, including $100.3$97.0 million for related parties.

Overview

We are a global leader and innovatorSilicon Valley-based provider of accelerated compute platforms that are application-optimized high performance and high-efficiency server and storage systems for a variety of markets, including enterprise data centers, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, 5G and edge computing. Our solutionsTotal IT Solutions include complete servers, storage systems, modular blade servers, blades, workstations, full racks,rack scale solutions, networking devices, server sub-systems, server management software, and server sub-systems.security software. We also provide global support and services to help our customers install, upgrade and maintain their computing infrastructure.

We commenced operations in 1993 and have been profitable every year since inception. Our net income for the three months ended December 31, 20212022 increased to $41.9$176.2 million from $27.7$41.9 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. In order to increase our sales and profits, we believe that we must continue to develop flexible and application optimized server and storage solutions and be among the first to market with new features and products. We also believe that we must also continue to expand our software and customer service and support offerings, particularly as we increasingly focus on AI/ML applications and larger enterprise customers. Additionally, we mustintend to focus on development of our sales partners and distribution channels to further expand our market share. We measure our financial success based on various indicators, including growth in net sales, gross profit margin and operating margin. Among the key non-financial indicators of our success is our ability to rapidly introduce new products and deliver the latest application-optimized server and storage solutions. In this regard, we work closely with microprocessor, GPU and other key component vendors to take advantage of new technologies as they are introduced. Historically, our ability to introduce new products rapidly has allowed us to benefit from technology transitions such as the introduction of new microprocessorsmicroprocessor, GPU, memory and storage technologies, and as a result, we monitor the introduction cycles of IntelNVIDIA Corporation, NVIDIAIntel Corporation, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Samsung Electronics Company Limited, Micron Technology, Inc., Broadcom Inc. and others closely and carefully. This also impacts our research and development expenditures as we continue to invest more in our current and future product development efforts.


Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic Impact
SMCI | Q2 2023 Form 10-Q | 33

The global spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) and the various attempts to contain it have created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption for many businesses worldwide. In an effort to contain COVID-19 or slow its spread, governments around the world have enacted various measures, including orders that govern the operations of businesses, require masks be worn and define shelter in place and social distancing protocols. We are an essential critical infrastructure (information technology) business under the relevant federal, state and county regulations. Accordingly, in late March 2020, we responded to the directives from Santa Clara County and the State of California regarding instructions to combat the spread of COVID-19. Our first priority is the safety of our workforce and we have implemented numerous health precautions and work practices to be in compliance with the law and to operate in a safe manner.

Table of Contents
We quickly transitioned certain of our indirect labor forces to work from home at the earlier phase of the pandemic and continued to operate our local assembly in Taiwan and, after an initial period of disruption, in the United States and Europe. We operate in the critical industry of IT infrastructure and we assessed our customer base to identify priority customers who operate in critical industries. We continued to see ongoing demand and do not have significant direct exposure to industries which have been impacted the greatest. As time passes, we may discover greater indirect exposure to distressed industries through our channel partners and OEM customers.

We have actively managed our supply chain for potential shortage risk by building inventories of critical components required for our motherboards and other system printed circuit boards in response to the early outbreak of COVID-19 in China. Since that time, we have continued to add to our inventories of key components such as CPUs, memory, SSDs and GPUs to support our ability to fulfill customer orders.

Logistics has emerged as a new challenge as globally the transportation industry restricted the frequency of departures and increased logistics costs. We have experienced increased costs in freight as well as direct labor costs as we incentivized our employees to continue to work and assist us in serving our customers, many of whom are in critical industries. We expect this trend to continue for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We monitor the credit profile and payment history of our customers to evaluate risk in specific industries or geographic areas where cash flow may be disrupted. While we believe that we are adequately capitalized, we actively manage our liquidity needs. In June 2021, we negotiated an extension of our credit facility with Bank of America to extend the maturity date to June 2026. In July 2021, we replaced our prior credit facility and term loan facility with CTBC Bank, with a new facility for omnibus credit lines. In September 2021, we replaced our prior credit facility with E.SUN Bank, with new credit facility and term facility. In September 2021, we entered into a term loan facility with Mega Bank which will be used to support our manufacturing activities (such as purchase of materials and components) and provide medium-term working capital. In October 2021, we entered into a credit facility with Chang Hwa Bank and in January 2022 we entered into a loan agreement with HSBC Bank which will both be used to support the growth of our Taiwan business. See “- Liquidity and Capital Resources – Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Our management team is focused on guiding our company through the ongoing challenges presented by COVID-19, including the recent emergence of the omicron variant. There are positive signs with vaccine availability and the rollout of boosters; however, with the omicron variant and the possibility of the emergence of other new virus strains and vaccine supply constraints, we are unable to predict the ultimate extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic may further impact our business operations, financial performance and results of operations within the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

36


Table of Contents
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, and base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for the judgments we make about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Because these estimates can vary depending on the situation, actual results may differ from these estimates. Making estimates and judgments about future events is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Should any of these estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, it could have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position and statement of cash flows.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to those disclosed in our 20212022 10-K. For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, see Part I, Item 1, Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report.

Net Sales

Net sales consist of sales of our server and storage solutions, including systems and related services and subsystems and accessories. The main factors that impact our net sales of our server and storage systems are the number of systems and compute nodes sold and the average selling prices per system and node. The number of nodes and systems shipped will vary each quarter depending on our customers specific server application or workload. The main factors that impact our net sales of our subsystems and accessories are units shipped and the average selling price per unit. The prices for our server and storage systems range widely depending upon the configuration, including the number of compute nodes in a server system as well as the level of integration of key components such as GPUs, SSDs and memory. The prices for our subsystems and accessories can also vary widely based on whether a customer is purchasing power supplies, server boards, chassis or other accessories.

A compute node is an independent hardware configuration within a server system capable of having its own CPU, memory and storage and that is capable of running its own instance of a non-virtualized operating system. The number of compute nodes sold, which can vary by product, is an important metric we use to track our business. Measuring volume using compute nodes enables more consistent measurement across different server form factors and across different vendors. As with most electronics-based product life cycles, average selling prices typically are highest at the time of introduction of new products that utilize the latest technology and tend to decrease over time as such products mature in the market and are replaced by next generation products. Additionally, in order to remain competitive throughout all industry cycles, we actively change our selling price per unit in response to changes in costs for key components such as CPU/GPU, memory and SSDs.storage.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

Cost of sales primarily consists of the costs to manufacture our products, including the costs of materials, contract manufacturing, shipping, personnel expenses, including salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation and incentive bonuses, equipment and facility expenses, warranty costs and inventory excess and obsolescence provisions. The primary factors that impact our cost of sales are the mix of products sold and cost of materials, which include purchased parts and material costs, shipping costs, salary and benefits and overhead costs related to production.production as well as efficiencies or leverage gained from higher production volume in our facilities. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales may increase or decrease over time if decreasesthe changes in average selling prices are not offsetmatched by corresponding decreaseschanges in our costs. Our cost of sales as a percentage of net sales is also impacted by the extent to which we are able to efficiently utilize our expanding manufacturing capacity. Because we generally do not have long-term fixed supply agreements, our cost of sales is subject to change based on the cost of materials and market conditions. As a result, our cost of sales as a percentage of net sales in any period can increase due to significant component price increases resulting from component shortages.

We use several suppliers and contract manufacturers to design and manufacture subsystems in accordance with our specifications, with most final assembly and testing predominantly performed at our manufacturing facilities in the same region where our products are sold. We work with Ablecom, one of our key contract manufacturers and also a related party to optimize modular designs for our chassis and certain of other components. We also outsource to Compuware, also a related party, a portion of our design activities and a significant part of the manufacturing of components, particularly power supplies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our growth primarily with funds generated from increased profits from operations, in addition to utilizing borrowing facilities. We draw on our credit facilities particularly in relationto fund working capital requirements due to the financinghigher level of real property acquisitionsinventories and accounts receivable based on increasing sales as well as an increase infinancing the need for working capital due to longer supply chain manufacturingacquisition of property, plant and delivery times.equipment. We also received funds from the exercise of employee stock options. Our cash and cash equivalents were $247.4$304.6 million and $232.3$267.4 million as of December 31, 20212022 and June 30, 2021,2022, respectively. Our cash in foreign locations was $156.5$168.5 million and $152.6$169.5 million as of December 31, 20212022 and June 30, 2021,2022, respectively.
Amounts held outside of the U.S. are generally utilized to support non-U.S. liquidity needs. Repatriations generally will not be taxable from a U.S. federal tax perspective but may be subject to state income or foreign withholding tax. Where local restrictions prevent an efficient intercompany transfer of funds, our intent is to keep cash balances outside of the U.S. and to meet liquidity needs through operating cash flows, external borrowings, or both. We do not expect restrictions or potential taxes incurred on repatriation of amounts held outside of the U.S. to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.
We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, borrowing capacity available from our credit facilities and internally generated cash flows will be sufficient to support our operating businesses and maturing debt and interest payments for the twelve12 months following the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2022, we entered into a new general credit agreement with E.SUN Bank. This New E.SUN Bank Credit Facility permits borrowings of up to (i) NTD 1.8 billion ($61.0 million U.S. dollar equivalent) and (ii) US$30.0 million in loans that will support the growth of our Taiwan business.

Capital Expenditure Requirements

We intend to continue to focus our capital expenditures in fiscal year 2022 to support the growth of our operations. We anticipate our capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal year 20222023 will be approximately $20 to $25 $33 million, relating primarily to costs associated with our manufacturing capabilities, including tooling for new products, new information technology investments, and facilities upgrades. We are evaluating an expansion of our manufacturing into Malaysia, and during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 entered into a letter of understanding to acquire land in Malaysia. A definitive agreement to acquire such land, subject to various conditions, was subsequently executed in January 2023. In the event we acquire such land, we anticipate additional future capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal year 2023 of approximately $14 million for such initiative. In addition, we will continue to evaluate new business opportunities and new markets. As a result, our future growth within the existing business or new opportunities and markets may dictate the need for additional facilities and capital expenditures to support that growth. We evaluate capital expenditure projects based on a variety of factors, including expected strategic impacts (such as forecasted impact on revenue growth, productivity, expenses, service levels and customer retention) and our expected return on investment.

We intend to continue to focus our capital expenditures in fiscal year 2023 to support the growth of our operations. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors including our growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the introduction of new and enhanced software and services offerings theand investments in our office facilities and our information systems infrastructure, the continuing market acceptance of our offerings and our planned investments, particularly in our product development efforts, applications or technologies.IT system infrastructure.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

The primary objectives of our investment activities are to preserve principal, provide liquidity and maximize income without significantly increasing the risk. Some of the securities we invest in are subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the fair value of the investment to fluctuate. To minimize this risk, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in money market funds and certificates of deposit.deposit, all of which are held for purposes other than trading. Our investment in an auction rate security has been classified as non-current due to the lack of a liquid market for these securities. Since our results of operations are not dependent on investments, the risk associated with fluctuating interest rates is limited to our investment portfolio, and we believe that a 10% change in interest rates would not have a significant impact on our results of operations. As of December 31, 2021,2022, our investments were in money market funds, certificates of deposits and auction rate securities.

We are exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of our borrowings under our term loans and revolving lines of credit. The interest rates for the term loans and the revolving lines of credit ranged from 0.45%1.075% to 1.50%5.88% at December 31, 20212022 and 0.825% to 4.004% at June 30, 2021.2022. Based on the outstanding principal indebtedness of $315.9$170.1 million under our credit facilities as of December 31, 2021,2022, we believe that a 10% change in interest rates would not have a significant impact on our results of operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

To date, our international customer and supplier agreements have been denominated primarily in U.S. dollars and accordingly, we have limited exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations from customer agreements, and do not currently engage in foreign currency hedging transactions. The functional currency of our subsidiaries in the Netherlands and Taiwan is the U.S. dollar. However, certain loans and transactions in these entities are denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, and thus we are subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations associated with re-measurement to U.S. dollars. Such fluctuations have not been significant historically. ForeignRealized and unrealized foreign exchange loss for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was $6.9 million and realized and unrealized gain for the six months ended December 31, 2022 was $0.9 million. Realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss for both the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 was $3.8 million and for three and six months ended December 31, 2020 was $2.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively.$0.7 million.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision, and with the participation, of our current management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of December 31, 2021.2022. Based on this evaluation, of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2021.2022.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Under applicable SEC rules (Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d)), management is required to evaluate, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, any changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during each fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2021,2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurances that its objectives will be met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but we cannot assure that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.
