<p class="has-drop-cap">Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI) is set to be removed from the Nasdaq-100 Index, a change scheduled to take effect before the market opens on December 23, 2024. <br><br>The announcement has already immediately impacted the company’s stock, with shares dropping 15% in pre-market trading at the time of writing. This development comes amidst the company’s challenges, including financial reporting issues and <a href="https://tokenist.com/super-micro-computer-smci-faces-doj-probe-and-stock-volatility/" rel="dofollow" class="deco-link">an ongoing investigation</a> by the U.S. Department of Justice. </p> 
<h3 id="smci-set-to-be-removed-from-the-nasdaq-100-index">SMCI Set to Be Removed from the Nasdaq-100 Index</h3> 
<p>Super Micro is facing multiple hurdles that have led to its removal from the Nasdaq-100. A primary issue is the company’s delay in submitting its annual financial report, which has put it at risk of delisting. Compounding these difficulties is a sharp decline in share value, down 69% from its peak in March. <br><br>The company has been under scrutiny due to issues with its former auditor, <a href="https://tokenist.com/smcis-market-cap-drops-nearly-10-billion-following-eys-departure-as-auditor/" rel="dofollow" class="deco-link">Ernst &amp; Young LLP</a>, and an investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. To address these challenges, Super Micro has engaged Evercore Inc. to assist in capital raising efforts, exploring equity and debt financing options to stabilize its finances.</p> 
<p>The removal from the Nasdaq-100 Index could potentially affect investor confidence in SMCI. This shift may prompt investors to reassess their positions, considering the risks associated with the company’s ongoing challenges. The changes in the index composition can also influence investment products and strategies linked to the Nasdaq-100, potentially affecting the broader market sentiment towards the company.</p>
