Super Micro Computer Inc ( SMCI ) shares are up 15% to $43.58 since Monday’s open. This week, an internal investigation led by its Special Committee found "no evidence of misconduct or fraud" involving management or the board.

What To Know: The review, supported by legal and forensic experts, assessed rehiring practices, sales and revenue recognition, export controls and related-party disclosures. While largely reassuring, it also exposed governance lapses, prompting calls for structural reforms.

Key recommendations accepted by the board include appointing a new CFO to replace David Weigand and bolstering oversight with hires like a chief compliance officer, general counsel and chief accounting officer. The company committed to expanding training programs and tightening financial controls.
