Jabil Posts Third Quarter Results

Jabil Inc. (NYSE: JBL), reported preliminary, unaudited financial results for its third quarter of fiscal year 2024.

“It’s clear that Jabil has navigated a period of significant transformation this fiscal year: a year in which we divested our Mobility business, captured growth in the AI datacenter space, and experienced softness across multiple end-markets,” said CEO Mike Dastoor. “Despite these moving pieces, we remain on track to deliver 5.6% in core margins and $8.40 of core diluted EPS in FY24, while generating more than $1 billion in adjusted free cash flow. At the same time, we’ve been working towards our commitment to repurchase $2.5 billion of our shares. And importantly, in the mid-to-longer-term we remain well-positioned to benefit from many of the world’s powerful trends in areas like datacenter power and cooling, electric and hybrid vehicles, healthcare and pharma solutions, semi-cap equipment, and automated warehousing to name a few,” he concluded.
