Friday, March 22, 3:31 PM French oil giant Total (TOT +0.3%) launches 2.3-petaflop supercomputer that will allow the company to locate oil 15 times as fast as it could with older systems. The new machine, called Pangea, will cost $77.55M to run over four years and was built by Silicon Graphics International (SGI -8.6%).

Friday, January 25, 9:34 AM SGI (SGI +6.1%) opens higher on an upgrade to Buy from Sterne Agee. The firm sees SGI as a big data play thanks to its traditional high-performance computing customers and arsenal of in-memory database and Hadoop solutions, and thinks margin growth can exceed expectations due to SGI's operating leverage. FQ2 results are due on Jan. 30. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Quick Ideas]
Wednesday, November 7, 2012, 12:45 PM Midday top 10 gainers: CALI +89%. SRT +22%. VHC +21%. AMRS +20%. HDY +19%. PKT +16%. FCAL +14%. CNTF +12%. MKTG +10%. SGI +10%. Midday top 10 Losers: QLTY -34%. PLXS -28%. STEC -23%. JRCC -21%. PQ -18%. APRI -18%. FRM -17%. RBCN -17%. PHMD -17%. THQI -17%. Comment!
Tuesday, November 6, 2012, 5:14 PM More on SGI: FQ2 guidance is for revenue of $180M-$195M and EPS of $0.00-$0.08 vs. a consensus of $197.2M and -$0.10. FQ1 beat fueled by 7% Q/Q and 11% Y/Y drop in opex to $49.2M, thanks to job cuts. Also, gross margin was 22.2%, up 130 bps Q/Q (albeit down 720 bps Y/Y). SGI +15.2% AH. CC underway (webcast). (PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings]
Tuesday, November 6, 2012, 4:44 PM Silicon Graphics International (SGI): FQ1 EPS of -$0.10 beats by $0.09. Revenue of $193M (+7.8% Y/Y) beats by $9M. Shares +15.2% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech, On the Move]
Thursday, August 9, 2012, 1:48 PM After crashing post-earnings (I, II) two quarters in a row, Silicon Graphics (SGI +27.4%) is doing the opposite. Though FQ4 results were mixed, SGI is guiding for FQ1 revenue $180M-$195M and EPS of -$0.24 to -$0.16, above a consensus of $176.7M and -$0.27. That's enough to fuel a big rally in a heavily-shorted company with a low price/sales multiple. During its earnings call, SGI said it's seeing stronger demand for its servers for HPC and big data applications. FBN is upgrading to Outperform. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Wednesday, August 8, 2012, 5:30 PM Silicon Graphics (SGI): FQ4 EPS of -$0.10 beats by $0.33. Revenue of $179M (-8.2% Y/Y) misses by $6M. Shares +7.6% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech, On the Move]
Thursday, May 10, 2012, 9:06 AM Premarket gainers: RPRX +17%. KERX +13%. MNST +12%. AEG +10%. NBG +9%. TSLA +8%. YONG +8%.
Losers: CDTI -14%. SGI -14%. PANL -13%. QSII -10%. CSCO -8%. Comment! [On the Move]
Wednesday, May 9, 2012, 5:32 PM More on Silicon Graphics' FQ3: The company is guiding for FQ4 revenue of $177M-$197M and EPS of -$0.52 to -$0.37, below a consensus of $208.9M and $0.16. SGI's reasons: a large deal slipped into FQ1, customers are delaying orders ahead of product launches due late in FQ4, and many expected deals will have low margins (a sign of price pressure?). Shares also plunged following SGI's FQ2 report (Europe was blamed). SGI -12% AH. (PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Wednesday, May 9, 2012, 5:16 PM Silicon Graphics International (SGI): Q1 EPS of $0.11 beats by $0.14. Revenue of $199M (+39% Y/Y) beats by $10M. Shares -12% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech, On the Move]
Wednesday, March 21, 2012, 10:02 AM SGI (SGI +0.3%), clobbered last month thanks to an earnings miss blamed on weak Euro sales, says it will slash its European workforce by ~25%, and "close certain legal entities and offices" on the continent in the process. The server maker expects to incur one-time cash charges of $14M-$17M related to the restructuring, and annual cost savings of roughly $7.5M. (PR) Comment! [Tech]
Wednesday, February 8, 2012, 12:29 PM A victim of Europe's woes or tougher price competition? That's the big question surrounding Silicon Graphics (SGI -23.5%) after it badly missed Q4 EPS estimates and slashed its FY12 guidance. FBN, which is downgrading shares to Sector Perform, believes Europe could be unprofitable for SGI for the next 1-1.5 years, and doesn't expect shares to Outperform until a new CEO is named (previously). Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
