Barclays analyst George Wang CFA maintains $Jabil (JBL.US)$ with a buy rating, and maintains the target price at $157.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 59.3% and a total average return of 6.0% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Jabil (JBL.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Following Jabil's Q4 earnings report and annual investor briefing, it was noted that the guidance for future revenue and EPS was consistent with expectations. It is believed there is potential for Jabil to exceed this guidance should the macroeconomic situation enhance and certain end markets, including semiconductor capital equipment, experience recovery.
The company's fourth-quarter results surpassed expectations, and its guidance for fiscal year 2025 was more optimistic than anticipated. Observations indicate that the company's shares are experiencing a relief rally, with the potential for growth in fiscal year 2026 as end-markets begin to recover and sufficient capacity is available.
The firm's assessment reflects a stronger-than-anticipated Q4 performance, accompanied by a cautious initial outlook for FY25 as anticipated. Management anticipates a long-term sales compound annual growth rate of 5%-7%. Projections for FY25 earnings per share suggest margin compression due to reduced capacity utilization, with expectations for margin enhancements throughout FY25.
