Guidance and outlook
Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Sep 3, 2026
- A discussion of accounting policies and estimates that we believe are important to understanding the assumptions and judgments incorporated in our reported financial results.
- We expect these market dynamics and trends to continue in the longer term.
- While we have sought to mitigate these adverse impacts by relying on our global supply chain, implementing pricing measures, and securing sufficient supply in advance of orders, we nevertheless expect the current macroeconomic environment to continue with the potential to impact revenue and margin growth in the near term.
- Throughout fiscal year 2026, we experienced supply chain constraints due to these component shortages and expect such dynamics to continue in the medium term as memory supply constraints may persist until memory vendors transition greater production allocations towards high performance memory components required by AI workloads.
- In addition, our current efforts to secure memory components and SSDs in advance to meet forecasted demand may further increase our inventory levels in the medium term.
- We expect that such flexible consumption model will continue to strengthen our customer relationships and contribute to growth in recurring revenue.
- We utilize a comprehensive hedging strategy intended to mitigate the impact of foreign currency volatility over time, and we adjust pricing when possible to further minimize foreign currency impacts.
- Our future effective tax rate may also be impacted by judicial decisions, changes in interpretation of regulations, as well as additional legislation and guidance.
- While we do not anticipate a material adverse impact to our financial position in fiscal 2026, additional changes to global tax laws are likely to occur.
- new · We have also applied for and expect to receive more in the future.
- new · Such amounts received, and any such amounts applied for, are not nor do we expect they will be material to our financial statements or financial position.
- We have, in the past, entered into contracts for the sale of certain products and services that reflect discounting due to competitive pressures or were negotiated at prices prior to the recent escalation of component costs, which have resulted in lower margins than expected, and we expect will continue to negatively impact our margins in the near term.
