Scenario range: $165.02 (bear) to $348.04 (bull), the price of $258.56 sits inside it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a range, not a price target.

What moves the price
The last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat.
The share trades about 33% below its 52-week high and 34% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average.
For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −15% fair-value upside, at 3%, JBL screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models

Price $258.56 · Upside +3.5%
Model ⓘEach model values the company its own way (discounted cash flow, earnings, assets, dividends). The fair value above starts from their evidence-weighted blend, not from a single model. In cyclical trough or peak years, after dilution or a stock split it is adjusted afterwards, so it can sit above or below the models. Based on fiscal year 2026 figures (about 2 months old). Earnings retained since then ($1.71 per share) are deliberately not added.Bear ⓘBear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull ⓘBull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. If a model's bull case is above four times its base value, the table shows that limit with a > sign (like the overall Bull above): beyond it no assumption holds.Coverage ⓘCoverage = how well-backed THIS model's estimate is for this stock (0–100): how complete and reliable its input data are, and how well the model fits the company. The final Fair Value is an evidence-weighted blend, so better-evidenced models count more. Green ≥70, amber 50–69, grey below 50.

Growth Quality ⓘGrowth is valuable only when reinvestment earns attractive returns (Aswath Damodaran): sustainable growth depends on return on capital, reinvestment and efficiency. Basis: total company revenue over the periods shown on the cards (3Y/5Y/all years), not per share, so a merger can show up as a growth jump; per-share earnings growth is in the value-creation card.67/100

What shareholders gained per year (last 5 years) (mathematically smoothed) ⓘWhat the business itself delivers per year: earnings growth per share plus the dividend yield. This is what you get IF the market keeps valuing the stock the same way: it contains no assumption about the market changing its mind. Computed per share, so buybacks count and a merger does not pass as growth. For a company that pays no dividend it is pure earnings growth per share. Period: earnings growth per share as CAGR over the last 5 reported fiscal years (annual statements), plus the current dividend yield. The start value is the median of the three years around the start, so a single crisis year (a pandemic or a write-down) does not distort the rate. Smoothed = median of all growth paths between the years of the window (trend line on the logarithm of earnings per share): a single extreme year cannot distort the rate. The reported figure stays in the tooltip.

Growth Forecast
Little optimism in the price
The price assumes more growth than the company has delivered so far and less than analysts expect.
What the price assumes ⓘThis turns our valuation around: instead of asking what the share is worth, it asks what growth the current price requires. It uses the cash the company keeps after all spending (free cash flow), the same discount rate as our models, five years of growth, then slowing evenly to 2 % a year by year ten. Compared with the analysts' sales forecasts extended to the same five years (at least three analysts, for context only, it does not enter the Fair Value): within 3 percentage points counts as "in line" (amber), below that little optimism (green), above that a lot of optimism (red).
+10.8%
Yearly growth needed for the next five years to justify today's price.
What forecasts expect ⓘAnalysts publish sales forecasts for the next two fiscal years. For the years after that, growth slows evenly to 2 % a year by year ten (2 % is the long-run rate our models use). Projected years are marked as such.
+15.7%
Yearly sales growth analysts expect, extended to five years.
After inflation (USA: IMF forecast 2.4% a year to 2030, 3.1% from 2016 to 2025) that is about +8.3% a year for the price and +13.0% for the forecasts.
AI conclusion: Strong growth in AI data center demand through the Intelligent Infrastructure segment stands against thin margins and a weak moat from limited differentiation.
Main risk: Heavy reliance on a few hyperscale customers creates concentration risks that could sharply reduce revenue if infrastructure spending turns volatile.
Bull case: Jabil could further broaden its customer base across more hyperscalers and regulated industries while expanding higher-value capabilities in data center power and photonics to offset any concentration effects.
Bear case: If key customers shift production in-house or to rivals or sharply cut spending, Jabil could face a substantial and lasting drop in revenue from its core intelligent infrastructure activities.
Jabil's Intelligent Infrastructure segment now accounts for half its revenue after 45 percent growth last year, fueled by AI data center demand, and a new 50:50 joint venture with Adani aims to expand hardware manufacturing in India. Yet this heavy tilt toward a few hyperscale customers brings concentration risks even as the company pushes into regulated industries. Will the India expansion broaden its base enough to balance the AI exposure, or will it deepen dependence on volatile infrastructure spending?
