Fundamental analysis of Jabil Inc

JBL · NYSE · Technology

Fundamental quality

REASONABLE

62

out of 100

Jabil Inc earns a fundamental-quality score of 62 out of 100, profiling it as a company of reasonable quality. Its score rests mainly on its financial strength (net debt 0.69× EBITDA). Its weakest area is its profitability (net margin 2.9%). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.

What the company does

Jabil is one of the world's largest contract manufacturers: it builds electronics and devices for other brands, from data-center gear to healthcare equipment and auto parts. It is the silent factory behind products carrying someone else's logo.

What will shape its future

  • Customer and sector diversification, its defense after years of Apple dependence.
  • AI and data-center hardware, its recent star segment.
  • Structurally thin margins: in contract manufacturing, volume is nearly everything.
