Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in the 2025 Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and other factors. Our actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in the 2025 Annual Report. See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Friday in August. Fiscal years 2026 and 2025 each contain 52 weeks. All period references are to our fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. All tabular amounts are in thousands, except percentages.

Overview

On June 30, 2025, we completed the U.S. Domestication of the parent company of our corporate group, Penguin Solutions Cayman, from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware in the United States, resulting in Penguin Solutions Delaware becoming our publicly traded parent company and the successor issuer to Penguin Solutions Cayman. The financial information in this Quarterly Report for periods prior to the completion of the U.S. Domestication relates to Penguin Solutions Cayman. Unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, the terms “Penguin Solutions,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or similar terms (i) for periods prior to the effectiveness of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Cayman and its consolidated subsidiaries and (ii) for periods at or after the completion of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Delaware and its consolidated subsidiaries. See “Explanatory Note” and “About this Quarterly Report” above.

For an overview of our business, see “PART I - Item 1. Business” of the 2025 Annual Report.

Factors Affecting Our Operating Performance

Macro-Economic Demand Factors: Our business segments each have their own unique set of demand factors. Our Advanced Computing business is driven by demand for our High Performance Computing (HPC) and AI products, as well as traditional workload optimization and efficiency applications. We expect increased AI adoption and broader implementation by enterprises within but not limited to verticals such as financial services, oil and gas, telecommunications, government, manufacturing and education, as well as increased neocloud and sovereign AI adoption, as organizations seek scalable infrastructure solutions, though the extent and timing of such adoption and implementation may vary and may affect our results of operations. Demand in our Integrated Memory segment is driven by end-market demand from OEMs for customer-specific solutions in vertical markets such as industrial, government, networking, HPC and enterprise storage, as well as emerging demand for higher density and greater bandwidth solutions for AI deployments, and we anticipate growing demand for higher performance and reliability memory solutions, such as our CXL family of products, to support both traditional use cases and increasingly complex AI applications, although there can be no assurance that such demand will materialize as expected or at all. Finally, demand for our Optimized LED products is derived from targeted end-market applications, such as general high-power and mid-power lighting and specialty lighting, including video display and horticulture applications. However, broader macro-economic trends, including regional market demand and the global macro-economic environment, including those related to global conflicts, such as those in the Middle East and Ukraine, and the global effects thereof on international relations, transport and trade, recessionary indicators, high inflation rates, uncertainty and costs associated with trade policies and tariffs, and interest rates, can adversely affect all three segments concurrently.

Shifts in the Mix and Timing of Our Net Sales: Shifts in the mix of net sales from our operating segments, and in the timing of net sales, which can vary significantly from period to period, have impacted and can continue to impact our business and results of operations, including gross and operating margins. For example, our Advanced Computing segment is subject to variability in its sales and margin profile from period to period due to factors such as the following: recognition of revenue sometimes being tied to customer decisions as to the completion of delivery and system go-live events; certain sales being affected by the timing of customer deployments and shipments or customer budget considerations; changes in customer spending on our products and services (including as a result of the macro-economic demand factors discussed above); the impact of customer churn

rates (including discounting and churn of significant customers from whom we derive a significant percentage of our net sales); discontinuation of certain of our products from time to time; shifts in our customer mix, including expected trends with respect to growth in demand from non-hyperscaler customers for HPC and AI solutions; and margin being driven by the proportion of higher margin software and managed services within our Advanced Computing sales. Within our Advanced Computing segment, our “AI infrastructure business” refers to customer engagements focused on AI workloads, including designing, building, deploying, and managing AI infrastructure hardware, software, and services. When we refer to our non-hyperscale AI infrastructure business, we are referring to our AI infrastructure business excluding sales to hyperscaler customers. Our AI infrastructure business is transitioning from a hyperscaler concentration toward a more diversified non-hyperscaler customer base across enterprise, neocloud, and sovereign AI, which may negatively impact our net sales during the transition. Additionally, our net sales and margins have been negatively impacted by the winding down of our Penguin Edge business, which we expect to wind down and discontinue by the end of fiscal 2026. The comparability of our results of operations against prior periods will also be affected following the wind down of our Penguin Edge business. Our resource commitments and planning for each segment are relatively fixed in the short term, and as such, variability in expected net sales mix may have direct implications for our operating income and margins. Our Integrated Memory business has gross margins which are lower than the Company average and if net sales from this business grow faster than net sales for the Company overall, it may negatively impact total Company gross margins.

Our Ability to Identify, Complete and Successfully Integrate Acquisitions: A substantial portion of our growth over the last several years has been driven by acquisitions, and we intend to continue to use corporate development as an engine for growth. Within our existing segments, we plan to pursue acquisitions to expand features and functionality, expand into adjacent businesses and grow our customer base and geographic footprint. From time to time, we may seek to expand our addressable market by entering new business segments where, as we did with our Cree LED and Stratus Technologies acquisitions, we identify a business opportunity at scale with a path to being accretive to our overall operations in the near term. If we are unable to identify and complete attractive acquisitions and successfully integrate such businesses, we may not be successful in growing our net sales and/or expanding our margins. Any acquisitions we do complete may require us to incur debt or raise capital through equity financings or may subject us to unforeseen liabilities or costs, or operational challenges, that in turn impede our ability to realize the expected returns on our investment.

Disruptions in Our Supply Chain May Adversely Affect Our Businesses: We depend on third-party suppliers for key components of our products as well as certain raw materials, such as commodity DRAM components from offshore foundries that we use in our specialty memory products, third-party wafers that we use in our memory and LED businesses and HPC and AI components for our Advanced Computing business; the costs of such components and raw materials may fluctuate from time to time due to market conditions. In our memory and LED businesses, we have adopted a “Fab-Light” business model to reduce our capital expenditures and operating expenses, while affording greater flexibility in adapting to shifts in demand and other market trends. Our Fab-Light business model contributed to margin expansion in our overall business. However, our reliance on third-party manufacturers exposes us to risk of supply chain disruption and lost business. For example, constrained memory supply may affect our ability to meet demand in our Integrated Memory business on a timely basis or at all, and the global semiconductor shortage, particularly during its peak, has adversely affected our results of operations. In addition, in our Advanced Computing business, where we source components from third parties, the high demand for and limited supply of AI components globally, as well as any delays in the production of such components, continues to affect our sourcing of these components and the timing of deployments. In particular, we continue to experience extended lead times for certain components that are incorporated into our overall solutions, which impacts how quickly we are able to ramp existing and new customer projects and may negatively affect gross margins due to changes in shipment timing and product mix. If such disruptions worsen or are prolonged, or if there is meaningful disruption in our supply arrangement with any of our third-party suppliers, our results of operations and financial condition may continue to be adversely affected.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended August 29, 2025. This discussion contains forward looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and other factors. Our actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this report. See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “PART I – Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Friday in August. Fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 contained 52, 53 and 52 weeks, respectively. All period references are to our fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. All financial information for our subsidiaries in Brazil is included in our consolidated financial statements on a one-month lag because their fiscal years ended on July 31 of each year. In connection with the completion of the divestiture of an 81% interest in SMART Brazil, we ceased consolidating the operations of SMART Brazil in our financial statements as of the November 29, 2023 disposal date. As a result, financial information for the first quarter of 2024 includes the four-month period for the SMART Brazil operations from August 1, 2023 to November 29, 2023. All tabular amounts are in thousands.

Overview

For an overview of our business, see “PART I – Item 1. Business.”

On June 30, 2025, we completed the U.S. Domestication of the parent company of our corporate group, Penguin Solutions Cayman, from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware in the United States, resulting in Penguin Solutions Delaware becoming our publicly traded parent company and the successor issuer to Penguin Solutions Cayman. The financial information in this Annual Report for periods prior to the completion of the U.S. Domestication relates to Penguin Solutions Cayman. Unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, the terms “Penguin Solutions,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or similar terms (i) for periods prior to the effectiveness of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Cayman and its consolidated subsidiaries and (ii) for periods at or after the completion of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Delaware and its consolidated subsidiaries. See “About this Annual Report,” above.

Divestiture of SMART Brazil

On November 29, 2023, we completed the divestiture of an 81% interest in SMART Brazil to Lexar Europe B.V., an affiliate of Shenzhen Longsys Electronics Co. Ltd.

Presentation of SMART Brazil as Discontinued Operations: In accordance with authoritative guidance under U.S. GAAP, we have presented the balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows of SMART Brazil operations in this Annual Report, including in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes, as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The SMART Brazil operations were previously reported as part of our Integrated Memory segment. Unless otherwise noted, discussion within this Annual Report relates solely to our continuing operations and excludes the SMART Brazil operations.

See “PART II – Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Divestiture of SMART Brazil.”

Acquisition of Stratus Technologies

On August 29, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Stratus Technologies. At the closing, we paid a cash purchase price of $225.0 million, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, the seller had the right to receive the Stratus Earnout based on the gross profit performance of the Stratus Technologies business during the first full 12 fiscal months following the closing. Throughout 2023, we adjusted the fair value of the Stratus Earnout by an aggregate of $29.0 million and, as of August 25, 2023, current liabilities included $50.0 million for the amount payable in connection with the Stratus Earnout. In the second quarter of 2024, we paid in full $50.0 million related to the Stratus Earnout.

Factors Affecting Our Operating Performance

Macro-Economic Demand Factors. Our business segments each have their own unique set of demand factors. Our Advanced Computing business is driven by demand for our HPC and AI products, as well as traditional workload optimization and efficiency applications. We expect increased AI adoption and broader implementation by enterprises within but not limited to verticals such as financial services, energy, government and education, as well as increased sovereign AI adoption, as organizations seek scalable infrastructure solutions, though the extent and timing of such adoption and implementation may vary and may affect our results of operations. Demand in our Integrated Memory segment is driven by end-market demand from OEMs for customer-specific solutions in vertical markets such as industrial, government, networking, HPC and enterprise storage, as well as emerging demand for higher density and greater bandwidth solutions for AI deployments, and we anticipate growing demand for higher performance and reliability memory solutions, such as our CXL family of products, to support both traditional use cases and increasingly complex AI applications, although there can be no assurance that such demand will materialize as expected or at all. Finally, demand for our Optimized LED products is derived from targeted end-market applications, such as general high-power and mid-power lighting and specialty lighting, including video display and horticulture applications. However, broader macro-economic trends, including global conflicts impacting international relations, recessionary indicators, high inflation rates, uncertainty and costs associated with trade policies and tariffs, and interest rates, can adversely affect all three segments concurrently.

Shifts in the Mix and Timing of Our Revenue. Shifts in the mix of revenue from our operating segments, and in the timing of revenue, which can vary significantly from period to period, have impacted and can continue to impact our business and results of operations, including gross and operating margins. For example, our Advanced Computing segment has shown solid growth, but is subject to variability in its sales and margin profile from period to period due to factors such as the following: recognition of revenue sometimes being tied to customer decisions as to the completion of delivery and system go-live events; certain sales being affected by the timing of customer deployments and shipments or customer budget considerations; changes in customer spending on our products and services (including as a result of the macro-economic demand factors discussed above); the impact of customer churn rates (including discounting and churn of significant customers from whom we derive a significant percentage of our revenue); discontinuation of certain of our products from time to time; shifts in our customer mix, including expected trends with respect to growth in demand from non-hyperscaler customers for HPC and AI solutions; and margin being driven by the proportion of higher margin software and managed services within our Advanced Computing sales. Our resource commitments and planning for each segment are relatively fixed in the short term, and as such, variability in expected revenue mix may have direct implications for our operating income and margins. Additionally, our revenue and margins will be negatively impacted by the winding down of our Penguin Edge business, which we expect to wind down and discontinue by approximately the end of calendar 2025. The comparability of our results of operations against prior periods will also be affected following the wind down of our Penguin Edge business.

Our Ability to Identify, Complete and Successfully Integrate Acquisitions. A substantial portion of our growth over the last several years has been driven by acquisitions, and we intend to continue to use corporate development as an engine for growth. Within our existing segments, we plan to pursue acquisitions to expand features and functionality, expand into adjacent businesses and grow our customer base and geographic footprint. From time to time, we may seek to expand our addressable market by entering new business segments where we identify a business opportunity at scale with a path to being accretive to our overall operations in the near term. If we are unable to identify and complete attractive acquisitions and successfully integrate such businesses, we may not be successful in growing our revenue and/or expanding our margins. Any acquisitions we do complete may require us to incur debt or raise capital through equity financings or may subject us to unforeseen liabilities or costs, or operational challenges, that in turn impede our ability to realize the expected returns on our investment.

Disruptions in Our Supply Chain May Adversely Affect Our Businesses. We depend on third-party suppliers for key components of our products as well as certain raw materials, such as commodity DRAM components from offshore foundries that we use in our specialty memory products, third-party wafers that we use in our memory and LED businesses and HPC and AI components for our Advanced Computing business; the costs of such components and raw materials may fluctuate from time to time due to market conditions. In our memory and LED businesses, we have adopted a “Fab-Light” business model to reduce our capital expenditures and operating expenses, while affording greater flexibility in adapting to shifts in demand and other market trends. Our Fab-Light

business model contributed to margin expansion in our overall business. However, our reliance on third-party manufacturers exposes us to risk of supply chain disruption and lost business. For example, the global semiconductor shortage, particularly during its peak, has adversely affected our results of operations. In addition, in our Advanced Computing business, where we source components from third parties, the high demand for and limited supply of AI components globally, as well as any delays in the production of such components, continues to affect our sourcing of these components and the timing of deployments. In particular, we continue to experience extended lead times for certain components that are incorporated into our overall solutions, which impacts how quickly we are able to ramp existing and new customer projects and may negatively affect gross margins due to changes in shipment timing and product mix. If such disruptions worsen or are prolonged, or if there is meaningful disruption in our supply arrangement with any of our third-party suppliers, our results of operations and financial condition may continue to be adversely affected.
