MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Jabil
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Jabil Inc.:

  • Jabil Inc. is scheduled to release its Q4 2026 earnings on September 30, 2026, with analysts projecting a significant beat of $4.06 per share against a consensus of $3.69, driven by strong AI infrastructure revenue that reached $13.6 billion.
  • The stock currently trades at $319.10, which is well below the consensus price target of $441.78, suggesting substantial upside potential as the company joins the FTSE All-World Index and gains visibility from major institutional investors like BlackRock and Norges Bank.
  • Recent financial performance shows robust growth, with Q3 2026 revenue of $8.75 billion representing an 11.8% year-over-year increase, and the company guiding for full-year 2026 revenue of $35.0 billion, which exceeds the consensus estimate of $34.2 billion.
  • Wall Street sentiment remains strongly positive, with a consensus rating of "Buy" and recent price target hikes from major firms like BofA Securities to $475 and Stifel Nicolaus to $460, reflecting confidence in the company's diversified portfolio across automotive, healthcare, and cloud sectors.
  • The company maintains a low debt-to-equity ratio of 2.17 and a quick ratio of 0.66, indicating a manageable balance sheet that supports its expansion into high-growth areas like renewable energy and digital commerce while maintaining operational stability.

Jabil
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Jabil Inc. for these reasons:

  • The stock has experienced a significant run-up of 448% recently, leading some analysts to view the current valuation as a discount only relative to its own history, which may limit further short-term gains despite the strong momentum.
  • There is a notable divergence in analyst opinions, with Zacks Research downgrading the stock from "strong-buy" to "hold" in August 2026 and Weiss Ratings cutting its rating, suggesting that some experts believe the recent price appreciation has outpaced fundamental growth.
  • Insider selling activity has been consistent, with multiple executives including the CEO and Chairman selling shares in early 2026, which can signal a lack of confidence in the stock's future performance or a desire to lock in gains from the recent rally.
  • The company's current ratio of 0.98 is below 1.0, indicating that its current liabilities exceed its current assets, which could pose liquidity challenges if the company faces unexpected operational costs or supply chain disruptions in its global manufacturing network.
  • Despite the strong AI revenue, the stock's beta of 1.29 indicates higher volatility than the broader market, meaning investors may experience sharper price swings, as seen in the 52-week range from $189.60 to $428.93, which requires a higher risk tolerance.
