Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include SGH and its consolidated subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America consistent in all material respects with those applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 27, 2021. In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all necessary adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, to fairly state the financial information set forth herein. These consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 27, 2021. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to current period presentation. Fiscal Year : Our fiscal year is the 52 or 53-week period ending on the last Friday in August. Fiscal 2022 and 2021 each contain 52 weeks. All period references are to our fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. All financial information for our subsidiaries in Brazil is included in our consolidated financial statements on a one-month lag because their fiscal years end on July 31 of each year. Subsequent Event Share Repurchase Authorization On April 4, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a $75 million share repurchase authorization, under which the Company may repurchase its outstanding ordinary shares from time to time through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. The share repurchase authorization has no expiration date but may be suspended or terminated by the Board of Directors at any time. Share Dividend On January 3, 2022, our Board of Directors declared a share dividend of one ordinary share, $0.03 par value per share, for every one outstanding ordinary share owned to shareholders of record as of January 25, 2022. The dividend was paid on February 1, 2022. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes have been restated and adjusted for the impact of the share dividend. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12 – Income Taxes: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. We adopted ASU 2019-12 in the first quarter of 2022 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured on the basis of amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This ASU requires that the income statement reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets as well as the increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. This ASU requires that credit losses of debt securities designated as available-for-sale be recorded through an allowance for credit losses and limits the credit loss to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. We adopted ASU 2016-13 in the first quarter of 2021 under the modified retrospective adoption method. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 – Business Combinations: Accounting for Contract Asset and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers , to require that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . This ASU is effective for us in the first quarter of 2023 and, if adopted early, requires the retrospective method of transition applied to transactions occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We are evaluating the timing and effects of adoption of this ASU on our financial statements. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 – Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity: Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity , which simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments by reducing the number of accounting models and the number of embedded conversion features that could be recognized separately from the primary contract. This ASU requires a convertible debt instrument to be accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost, as long as no other features require bifurcation and recognition as derivatives. This ASU requires an entity to use the if-converted method in the diluted earnings per share calculation for convertible instruments. This ASU is effective for us in the first quarter of 2023 and permits the use of either the modified retrospective or fully retrospective method of transition. We are evaluating the effects of adoption of this ASU on our financial statements.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Acquisition	Business Acquisition LED Business On March 1, 2021, pursuant to the previously announced Asset Purchase Agreement, dated October 18, 2020, as amended by the Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement, dated March 1, 2021 (as amended, the “CreeLED Purchase Agreement”), (i) we acquired the LED business of Cree, Inc., a corporation now known as Wolfspeed, Inc. (“Cree”), including (a) certain equipment, inventory, intellectual property rights, contracts and real estate comprising Cree’s LED products segment, (b) all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Cree Huizhou Solid State Lighting Company Limited, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Cree and (c) Cree’s 51% ownership interest in Cree Venture LED Company Limited (“Cree Joint Venture”), Cree’s joint venture with San’an Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. (“San’an”) and (ii) we assumed certain liabilities related to the LED business (collectively, (i) and (ii), the “LED Business”). In connection with the transaction, Cree retained certain assets used in and pre-closing liabilities associated with its LED products segment. Purchase Price : The purchase price for the LED Business consisted of (i) a payment of $50 million in cash, subject to customary adjustments, (ii) an unsecured promissory note issued to Cree by the Company in the amount of $125 million (“LED Purchase Price Note”), (iii) an earn-out payment of up to $125 million based on the revenue and gross profit performance of the LED Business in Cree’s first four full fiscal quarters following the closing (“Earnout Period”), with a minimum payment of $2.5 million, payable in the form of an unsecured promissory note to be issued by us (“Earnout Note”) and (iv) the assumption of certain liabilities. The LED Purchase Price Note bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.0% and is due on August 15, 2023. The Earnout Note will begin to bear interest upon completion of the Earnout Period at LIBOR plus 3.0% and is due on March 27, 2025. In the second quarter of 2022, we repaid the LED Purchase Price Note. See “Debt.” Contingent Consideration : The Earnout Note is accounted for as contingent consideration. The fair value of the Earnout Note was estimated as of the date of acquisition to be $28.1 million and was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis in a risk-neutral framework with assumptions for volatility, market price of risk adjustment, risk-free rate and cost of debt. The fair value measurement was based on significant inputs not observable in the market . The Earnout Note is revalued each quarter and changes in valuation are reflected in results of operations. In the second half of 2021, we recorded charges of $32.4 million to adjust the value of the Earnout Note to its fair value as of August 27, 2021, and in the first six months of 2022, we recorded additional aggregate charges of $41.2 million to adjust the value of the Earnout Note to its fair value as of February 25, 2022. The changes in fair value reflected new information about the probability and timing of meeting the conditions of the revenue and gross profit targets of the LED Business. As of February 25, 2022, the fair value of the Earnout Note was $101.7 million. Upon completion of the Earnout Period, the Earnout Note will be reclassified as debt. Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information : The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents our combined results of operations as if the acquisition of the LED Business had occurred on August 31, 2019. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on various adjustments and assumptions and is not necessarily indicative of what our results of operations actually would have been had the acquisition been completed as of August 31, 2019 or will be for any future periods. Furthermore, the pro forma financial information does not include adjustments to reflect any potential revenue, synergies or dis-synergies or cost savings that may be achievable in connection with the acquisition, or the associated costs that may be necessary to achieve such revenues, synergies or cost savings. The unaudited pro forma financial information for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 combines our results of operations for the three and six months ended February 26, 2021 and the results of operations of the LED Business for the three and six months ended December 26, 2021. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 26, February 26, Net sales $ 409,166 $ 799,899 Net loss attributable to SGH (27,680) (155,758) Earnings (loss) per share: Basic $ (0.57) $ (3.19) Diluted $ (0.57) $ (3.19) The unaudited pro forma financial information above reflects the following adjustments: • Incremental cost of sales related to the estimated fair value of inventories. • Incremental depreciation expense related to the estimated fair value of property and equipment. • Incremental amortization expense related to the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets. • Incremental interest expense related to the LED Purchase Price Note and the Earnout Note. • The impacts to income tax expense as a result of the pro forma adjustments.

The Credit Agreement provides that up to $35.0 million of the 2027 Revolver is available for issuances of letters of credit. Issuance costs incurred in connection with the Credit Facility were $9.1 million and were allocated to the 2027 TLA and 2027 Revolver on a pro rata basis. Unamortized issuances costs allocated to the 2027 TLA are amortized using the effective interest method and are included as a reduction of the principal amount of the 2027 TLA within debt. Unamortized issuances costs allocated to the 2027 Revolver are amortized using the straight-line method and are included in other current and noncurrent assets. Principal payments under the 2027 TLA are due quarterly, beginning in May 2022, equal to 2.5% per annum of the initial aggregate principal amount, with such per annum percentage equal to 5.0%, 5.0%, 5.0% and 7.5% per annum in years two through five, respectively, with the balance due at maturity. Interest and fees : Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either, at our option, a term secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") rate or a base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. 2027 TLA : The applicable margin for 2027 TLA is 2.00% per annum with respect to term SOFR borrowings, and 1.00% per annum with respect to base rate borrowings. As of February 25, 2022, the interest rate applicable to the principal amount outstanding under the 2027 TLA was 2.37% per annum. As of February 25, 2022, there was $275.0 million of 2027 TLA principal amount outstanding and unamortized issuance costs were $4.4 million and, as of February 25, 2022, the 2027 TLA had an effective interest rate of 2.76%. 2027 Revolver : The applicable margin for revolving loans varies based on our Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and ranges from 1.25% to 3.00% per annum with respect to term SOFR borrowings and from 0.25% to 2.00% per annum with respect to base rate borrowings. In addition, we are required to pay a quarterly unused commitment fee at an initial rate of 0.25%, which may increase up to a rate of 0.35% based on certain Total Leverage Ratio levels specified in the Credit Agreement. As of February 25, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding under the 2027 Revolver and unamortized issuance costs were $4.6 million. Security : The Credit Agreement is jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior basis by certain subsidiaries of SGH organized in the United States and Cayman Islands. In addition, the Credit Agreement is secured by a pledge of the capital stock of, or equity interests in, certain subsidiaries of SGH organized in the United States and the Cayman Islands and by substantially all of the assets of certain subsidiaries of SGH organized in the United States and the Cayman Islands. Covenants : The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness; create liens on assets; engage in mergers or consolidations; sell assets; pay dividends; make distributions or repurchase capital stock; make investments, loans or advances; repay or repurchase certain subordinated debt (except as scheduled or at maturity); create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from our restricted subsidiaries; make certain acquisitions; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; amend material agreements governing our subordinated debt and fundamentally change our business. The Credit Agreement also includes the following financial maintenance covenants tested on the final day of each fiscal quarter: i. a First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 3.00 to 1.00; ii. a Total Leverage Ratio of 5.00 to 1.00; provided, that commencing after the eighth full fiscal quarter after the Effective Date, such Total Leverage Ratio level will instead be 4.50 to 1.00; provided further, that commencing after the eighth full fiscal quarter after the Effective Date, in connection with any Material Acquisition (as defined in the Credit Agreement), at the election of the Borrowers, the maximum Total Leverage Ratio for the next four testing periods after such Material Acquisition has been consummated will be automatically increased by 0.50 to 1.00 above the otherwise permitted Total Leverage Ratio for the applicable fiscal quarter (not to exceed 5.00 to 1.00 in any event); provided further, that (x) no more than two such elections may be made during the term of the Credit Agreement and (y) following the first such election, no subsequent election may be made unless the Total Leverage Ratio has been less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of at least two consecutive Test Periods (as defined in the Credit Agreement) following the expiration of the first increase; and iii. an Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 3.00 to 1.00. For purposes of calculating the First Lien Leverage Ratio and the Total Leverage Ratio, the consolidated debt of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is reduced by up to $100 million of the aggregate amount of unrestricted cash and Permitted Investments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Other : Substantially simultaneously with entering into the Credit Agreement, we used a portion of the proceeds of the Credit Facility to pay in full all borrowings and terminated all commitments under (i) our ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020, (ii) our Amended Credit Agreement, dated as of of March 6, 2020 and (iii) the LED Purchase Price Note, dated as of March 1, 2021. In connection therewith, we used an aggregate of $160.4 million to pay principal and interest outstanding under these agreements and recorded charges of $0.7 million in other non-operating expense to write off certain unamortized issuance costs. Convertible Senior Notes In February 2020, we issued $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2.25% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The 2026 Notes are general unsecured obligations, bear interest at an annual rate of 2.25% per year, payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15, and mature on February 15, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2026 Notes are governed by an indenture (the “Indenture”) between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. After the effect of the share dividend paid in the second quarter of 2022, the conversion rate of the 2026 Notes is 49.2504 ordinary shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $20.30 per ordinary share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events as set forth in the Indenture. Conversion Rights : Holders of the 2026 Notes may convert them under the following circumstances: i. during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ended on May 28, 2020 (and only during such fiscal quarter) if the last reported sale price per ordinary share exceeds 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; ii. during the five consecutive business days immediately after any 10 consecutive trading day period (such 10 consecutive trading day period, the “Measurement Period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price per ordinary share on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day; iii. on or after August 15, 2025 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date; iv. upon the occurrence of certain corporate events or distributions on our ordinary shares, as provided in the Indenture; or v. the 2026 Notes are called for redemption. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as applicable, cash, ordinary shares or a combination of cash and ordinary shares at our election. Our intent is to settle in cash the principal amount of our convertible notes upon conversion and may, at our option, settle any excess of the conversion value over the principal amount in cash, ordinary shares or any combination thereof. The closing price of our ordinary shares exceeded 130% of the conversion price for our 2026 Notes for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ended on February 25, 2022. As a result, the 2026 Notes are convertible by holders through May 27, 2022. If we receive a notice of conversion for our 2026 Notes, and we elect to settle in cash any portion of the conversion obligation, the cash settlement obligation becomes a derivative debt liability subject to mark-to-market accounting treatment based on the volume-weighted-average price of our ordinary shares over a period of 40 consecutive trading days, beginning two business days after the holder gives notice to convert. Accordingly, as of the date of our election to settle any part of a conversion in cash, we would reclassify all or a portion of the fair value of the equity component of the converted 2026 Notes from additional capital to derivative debt liability within current debt in our consolidated balance sheet. Other : Unamortized debt discount and issuance costs are amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest rate method. As of February 25, 2022 and August 26, 2021, the effective interest rate was 7.06%. Interest expense for the 2026 Notes consisted of 2.25% contractual stated interest and amortization of discount and issuance costs and included of the following: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 25, February 26, February 25, February 26, Contractual stated interest $ 1,390 $ 1,391 $ 2,781 $ 2,781 Amortization of discount and issuance costs 2,250 2,098 4,460 4,159 $ 3,640 $ 3,489 $ 7,241 $ 6,940 As of both February 25, 2022 and August 27, 2021, the carrying amount of the equity components of the 2026 Notes, which is included in additional paid-in-capital, was $50.8 million.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Contingencies From time to time, we are involved in legal matters that arise in the normal course of business. Litigation in general, and intellectual property, employment and shareholder litigation in particular, can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. Additionally, from time to time, we are a party in the normal course of business to a variety of agreements pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify another party. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these types of agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, our payments under these types of agreements have not had a material adverse effect

The transaction closed on January 15, 2021. In addition, ordinary shares withheld as payment of withholding taxes and exercise prices in connection with the vesting or exercise of equity awards are treated as ordinary share repurchases. We repurchased 4 thousand and 55 thousand ordinary shares in the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, and 1.1 million and 1.2 million ordinary shares in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively. As of February 25, 2022, these repurchased shares are held in treasury. Noncontrolling Interest in Subsidiary In connection with our acquisition of the LED Business, we have a 51% ownership interest in the Cree Joint Venture. The remaining 49% ownership interest is held by San’an. The Cree Joint Venture has a five-member board of directors, three of which are designated by us and two of which are designated by San’an. As a result of our majority voting interest, we consolidate the operations of the Cree Joint Venture and report its results of operations within our LED Solutions segment. The Cree Joint Venture has a manufacturing agreement pursuant to which San’an supplies it with mid-power LED products and we and the Cree Joint Venture have a sales agent agreement pursuant to which we are the independent sales representative of the Cree Joint Venture. The Cree Joint Venture produces and delivers to market high performing, mid-power lighting class LEDs in an exclusive arrangement serving the expanding markets of North and South America, Europe and Japan, and serves China markets and the rest of the world on a non-exclusive basis. The 49% ownership interest held by San’an is classified as noncontrolling interest. In the second quarter of 2022, the Cree Joint Venture distributed an aggregate of $7.7 million to its partners, including $3.9 million to SGH and $3.8 million to San’an. Noncontrolling interest increased by $0.5 million and $1.2 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, for San’an’s share of net income from the Cree Joint Venture.

Government Incentives	Government Incentives Brazil Financial Credits Through our Brazil subsidiaries, we participate in two programs (“Brazil Incentive Programs”), pursuant to which the Brazilian government incentivizes the manufacture and sale of certain information technology and consumer electronics products within Brazil. The programs include 1) Lei da Informática – Processo Produtivo Básico Program (also known as Informatics Law – Basic Productive Process Program) (“IT Law/PPB”) and 2) Programa de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Tecnológico da Indústria de Semicondutores (also known as Program of Support of the Development of the Semiconductor Industry) (“PADIS”). In January 2022, the Brazilian government approved an extension to PADIS. The financial credits available through PADIS are set to expire in December 2026, while the financial credits through IT Law/PPB are set to expire in December 2029. The Brazil Incentive Programs provide for reduced import and other transaction-related taxes for certain procurement, manufacturing and sales activities. In exchange, we must invest in certain research and development activities related to semiconductors and IT solutions in aggregate amounts that exceed a specified percentage of our gross revenues recognized in connection with sales in Brazil, excluding exports and sales to customers located at the Manaus Free Trade Zone. Accordingly, financial credits earned in connection with the Brazil Incentive Programs are reflected as a reduction of research and development expense. Financial credits available under the Brazil Incentive Programs are subject to limitations, which range from approximately 11% to 14% of gross revenues recognized for sales in Brazil. Under PADIS, we recognized aggregate financial credits, reflected as a reduction of research and development expense, of $6.0 million and $11.9 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, and $6.2 million and $14.0

The fair value of our Convertible Senior Notes (excluding the value of the equity component of our convertible notes), as measured on a non-recurring basis, was determined based on Level 2 measurements, including the trading price of the convertible notes. The fair values of our LED Purchase Price Note, ABL Credit Agreement and other debt, as measured on a non-recurring basis, were estimated based on Level 2 measurements, including discounted cash flows and interest rates based on similar debt issued by parties with credit ratings similar to ours. Acquisition-related contingent consideration relates to our acquisition of the LED Business and is included in noncurrent liabilities. The fair value, as measured on a recurring basis, was based on Level 3 measurements, which includes significant inputs not observable in the market. The fair value was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis in a risk-neutral framework with assumptions for volatility, market price of risk adjustment, risk-free rate and cost of debt. Assumptions used in the determination of fair value also included estimates of future revenue and gross profit of the LED Business in Cree’s first four full fiscal quarters following the closing of the acquisition. Generally, changes in the assumptions for projected future revenue, gross profit and volatility would be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the fair value measurement. Conversely, changes in the discount rate would be accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the related fair value measurement. However, due to the contingent consideration having a maximum payout amount, changes in these assumptions would not affect the fair value of the contingent consideration if they increase (decrease) beyond certain amounts. Subsequent to the acquisition date, at each reporting date, the contingent consideration liability is remeasured to fair value with changes recorded in our results of operations.

As of August 28, 2020, we deemed it was probable that the service condition would be met and the attainment of the performance condition for this award was probable. On October 20, 2020, we modified this award, as well as another time-based award previously granted to our former CEO, to accelerate the remaining service-based vesting requirements such that they became fully vested as of the acceleration date. These modifications resulted in additional share-based compensation expense in the first quarter of 2021 of $5.8 million. As of February 25, 2022, total unrecognized compensation costs for unvested Restricted Awards was $87.4 million, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.76 years.

Deferred revenue related to amounts received from customers in advance of satisfying performance obligations. As of February 25, 2022, we expect to recognize revenue of $19.8 million of the balance of $23.5 million in the next 12 months and the remaining amount thereafter. In the first six months of 2022, we recognized revenue of $11.2 million from satisfying performance obligations related to amounts included in deferred revenue as of August 27, 2021. Customer advances represent amounts received from customers for advance payments to secure product and services within the next 12 months.

Income Taxes	Income Taxes Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 25, February 26, February 25, February 26, Income before income taxes $ 10,558 $ 7,044 $ 39,011 $ 12,346 Income tax provision 7,586 1,200 15,341 4,475 Income tax expense includes a provision for federal, state and foreign taxes based on the annual estimated effective tax rate applicable to us and our subsidiaries, adjusted for certain discrete items which are fully recognized in the period they occur. Accordingly, the interim effective tax rate may not be reflective of the annual estimated effective tax rate. Our provision for income taxes for the six months ended February 25, 2022 increased by $10.9 million as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in the amount of earnings subject to non-U.S. tax. As of February 25, 2022 and August 27, 2021, we had a full valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets associated with our U.S. operations. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if significant positive evidence increases. Determining the consolidated provision for income tax expense, income tax liabilities and deferred tax assets and liabilities involves judgment. The Company calculates and provides for income taxes in each of the tax jurisdictions in which it operates, which involves estimating current tax exposures, as well as making judgments regarding the recoverability of deferred tax assets in each jurisdiction. The estimates used could differ from actual results, which may have a significant impact on operating results in future periods.

It is our intent to settle the principal amount of the 2026 Notes in cash upon any conversion. As a result, only the amounts payable in excess of the principal amounts upon conversion of the 2026 Notes are considered in diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method. The 2026 Notes are dilutive when the average share price of the Company’s ordinary shares for a reporting period exceeds the conversion price of the 2026 Notes of $20.30 per share.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment and Other Information	Segment and Other Information Segment information presented below is consistent with how our chief operating decision maker evaluates operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. In the fourth quarter of 2021, we reorganized SGH into three business units: Memory Solutions, Intelligent Platforms Solutions and LED Solutions. Two of our previous segments, specialty memory products and Brazil products, were combined to become Memory Solutions. Intelligent Platform Solutions was formerly referred to as specialty compute and storage solutions. All prior period information in the tables below has been revised to reflect the change to our three reportable segments. • Memory Solutions : Our Memory Solutions group, under our SMART Modular brand, provides high performance and reliable memory solutions through the design, development and advanced packaging of leading-edge to extended lifecycle products. These specialty products are tailored to meet customer-specific requirements across networking and communications, enterprise storage, computing, including desktop, notebook and server applications, smartphones and other vertical markets. These products are marketed to OEMs and to commercial and government customers. The Memory Solutions group also offers SMART Supply Chain Services, which provides customized, integrated supply chain services to enable our customers to better manage supply chain planning and execution, reduce costs and increase productivity. • Intelligent Platform Solutions (“IPS”) : Our IPS group, under our Penguin Solutions brand, consists of two major product lines – Penguin Computing and Penguin Edge. Penguin Computing offers specialized platform solutions for high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning and advanced modeling for technology research. We provide these leading-edge solutions to customers in the government, hyper-scale, energy, financial services and education markets. Penguin Edge offers solutions for embedded and wireless applications, specializing in high-reliability products for a wide range of customers in government, telecommunications, health care, smart city, network edge and industrial applications. • LED Solutions : Our LED Solutions group, under our Cree LED brand, offers a broad portfolio of application-optimized LEDs focused on improving on lumen density, intensity, efficacy, optical control and reliability. Backed by expert design assistance and superior sales support, our LED products enable our customers to develop and market LED-based products for general lighting, video screens and specialty lighting applications. Our LED Solutions is comprised of the LED Business we acquired from Cree, Inc. on March 1, 2021. Segments are determined based on sources of revenue, types of customers and operating performance. There are no differences between the accounting policies for our segment reporting and our consolidated results of operations. Operating expenses directly associated with the activities of a specific segment are charged to that segment. Certain other indirect operating income and expenses are generally allocated to segments based on their respective percentage of net sales. We do not allocate interest, other non-operating (income) expense or taxes to segments. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 25, February 26, February 25, February 26, Net sales: Memory Solutions $ 260,081 $ 218,597 $ 499,482 $ 444,421 Intelligent Platform Solutions 82,257 85,412 200,911 151,284 LED Solutions 106,833 — 218,722 — Total net sales 449,171 304,009 919,115 595,705 Segment operating income: Memory Solutions $ 32,496 $ 18,238 $ 69,166 $ 39,099 Intelligent Platform Solutions 7,702 8,922 21,882 11,803 LED Solutions 17,237 — 35,537 — Total segment operating income 57,435 27,160 126,585 50,902 Unallocated: Share-based compensation expense (9,973) (5,398) (19,748) (16,486) Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles (5,829) (3,413) (12,172) (6,827) Change in fair value of contingent consideration (24,000) — (41,200) — Out of period import tax expense (1) — (4,345) — (4,345) Other (828) (1,064) (1,866) (2,681) Total unallocated (40,630) (14,220) (74,986) (30,339) Consolidated operating income $ 16,805 $ 12,940 $ 51,599 $ 20,563 (1) During the second quarter of 2021, we recorded an out-of-period adjustment to correct errors originating in previous periods related to understated import tax costs, which resulted in a $4.3 million increase in cost of sales, $0.8 million increase in interest expense and $1.7 million benefit for income taxes. The adjustment was not considered material to the interim or annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 27, 2021 nor to any previously issued interim or annual consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include SGH and its consolidated subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America consistent in all material respects with those applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 27, 2021. In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all necessary adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, to fairly state the financial information set forth herein. These consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 27, 2021. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to current period presentation. Fiscal Year : Our fiscal year is the 52 or 53-week period ending on the last Friday in August. Fiscal 2022 and 2021 each contain 52 weeks. All period references are to our fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. All financial information for our subsidiaries in Brazil is included in our consolidated financial statements on a one-month lag because their fiscal years end on July 31 of each year.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12 – Income Taxes: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. We adopted ASU 2019-12 in the first quarter of 2022 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 – Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured on the basis of amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This ASU requires that the income statement reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets as well as the increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. This ASU requires that credit losses of debt securities designated as available-for-sale be recorded through an allowance for credit losses and limits the credit loss to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. We adopted ASU 2016-13 in the first quarter of 2021 under the modified retrospective adoption method. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 – Business Combinations: Accounting for Contract Asset and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers , to require that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . This ASU is effective for us in the first quarter of 2023 and, if adopted early, requires the retrospective method of transition applied to transactions occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We are evaluating the timing and effects of adoption of this ASU on our financial statements. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 – Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity: Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity , which simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments by reducing the number of accounting models and the number of embedded conversion features that could be recognized separately from the primary contract. This ASU requires a convertible debt instrument to be accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost, as long as no other features require bifurcation and recognition as derivatives. This ASU requires an entity to use the if-converted method in the diluted earnings per share calculation for convertible instruments. This ASU is effective for us in the first quarter of 2023 and permits the use of either the modified retrospective or fully retrospective method of transition. We are evaluating the effects of adoption of this ASU on our financial statements.
