Jabil Inc. delivered a significant earnings beat with Q4 Non-GAAP EPS of $4.40 beating estimates by $0.32 and revenue of $10.6B beating by $880M, representing a 28.5% year-over-year growth. The company raised its full-year FY27 guidance, projecting Adj EPS of $17.55 against $16.80 estimates. This strong performance indicates robust demand in the electronics manufacturing sector, likely driven by AI hardware and cloud infrastructure build-outs, providing a bullish signal for the broader tech supply chain. TSMC is evaluating a significant expansion in Texas, adding to its $165B commitment in Arizona, which signals long-term confidence in US semiconductor manufacturing and AI chip demand. In contrast, Mobileye Global was downgraded by Barclays to Equal-Weight with a lowered price target, reflecting concerns in the autonomous driving sector. This divergence highlights the strength of the core memory and logic chip cycle versus the more speculative autonomous vehicle segment.
