Earnings Summary
Jabil Inc. is a global manufacturing solutions provider that designs, engineers, and manages supply chains for electronic hardware and software across sectors such as 5G, cloud, automotive, and healthcare. The company operates through three segments, delivering systems assembly, testing, and direct‑order fulfillment to a diverse client base. In the most recent quarters, Jabil posted revenue of $8.302 billion in Q1 2026 and $8.282 billion in Q2 2026, a slight decline from the $8.301 billion in Q1 2025 but an increase from the $7.823 billion in Q3 2025, indicating a modest revenue acceleration. EPS, however, fell from $3.29 in Q3 2025 to $2.69 in Q2 2026, missing the $2.923 estimate, while Q1 2026 EPS of $2.85 beat the $2.491 estimate. Over the past four quarters, Jabil has consistently beat earnings estimates in three of the last four periods, with revenue growth ranging from 4.5 % in Q3 2025 to 6.4 % in Q4 2026, where revenue surged to $10.616 billion versus the $9.69 billion estimate. Historically, the company has shown a steady YoY revenue increase, with a 24 % jump projected for fiscal 2027, and has maintained a pattern of beating revenue estimates while occasionally missing EPS guidance. Recent news highlights a strategic pivot toward higher‑margin AI, automotive, and healthcare markets, with new capacity in Mexico and India, and a 200‑basis‑point gross margin expansion since 2020; the company also exited lower‑margin consumer programs to focus on complex automation.

Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into JBL?

RICH

At today's price, Jabil Inc. needs to grow free cash flow about 25.7% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 11.24% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at 10.6% a year, so the market is asking for 15.0 percentage points above its own delivered rate. On that basis JBL looks priced above what its own growth record supports.

What JBL's own history says about today's numbers

50.6% 89th pct
Below its peak
-22.1%
vs 200-day average
-0.3%
Up days (1y)
53%

Jabil Inc. is currently running 50.6% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against JBL's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 89th percentile — elevated for this stock, against a typical reading of 31.0%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

JBL is trading -22.1% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -28.0%, and the deepest was -57.2% in 2020. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits -0.3% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 26th percentile — a narrower gap than it typically runs. Over the past year JBL closed higher on 53% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a falling streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, JBL finished the month higher 6 of 13 times, with a median return of +0.0% and an average of +0.3%. Its strongest month historically has been May at +5.9% on average, its weakest January at -0.2%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: JBL has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 228 of 3,267 sessions (7.0% of the time), with the largest gaps running +14.5% and -9.7%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

Across the last 4 dated reports on file, JBL moved an average of 2.3% in the session after earnings, closing higher 2 of those 4 times, with a median move of +1.7% and a largest of +3.7%.

All figures computed from 3,268 daily closes between 2013-10-07 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against JBL's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
