Jabil

Jabil Inc. is one of the world's largest and most technologically advanced manufacturing solutions providers, headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida. Founded in 1966 by James Golden and Bill Morean around a kitchen table in Michigan, the company has grown from a small circuit board assembly operation into a global powerhouse with operations spanning 100 locations across 30 countries. The company name derives from the combination of its founders' first names—James and Bill becoming Jabil.

As a trusted partner for over 400 of the world's leading brands, Jabil provides comprehensive end-to-end solutions covering the entire product lifecycle, from innovation and design to sourcing, manufacturing, delivery, and aftermarket services. The company's expertise spans multiple high-growth industries including healthcare, automotive, communications, aerospace, defense, industrial equipment, and consumer products. With fiscal year 2025 revenue approaching $29.8 billion and 138,000 employees worldwide, Jabil has positioned itself as the most technologically advanced manufacturing solutions provider in the industry.

Jabil underwent a substantial transformation in fiscal year 2024, divesting its Mobility business for $2.2 billion while simultaneously accelerating growth in AI-driven sectors like data centers and networking infrastructure. This strategic pivot has proven successful, with the company announcing a planned multi-year $500 million investment in U.S. manufacturing for cloud and AI data center infrastructure. The company's core diluted EPS reached $9.75 in fiscal 2025, demonstrating strong financial performance driven by high-growth technology sectors. Jabil generated over $1 billion in adjusted free cash flow during fiscal year 2024 and returned $2.5 billion to shareholders through buybacks.

The company's vertically integrated business model encompasses architecture and concept design, industrialization, manufacturing process engineering, product testing, prototyping, and comprehensive supply chain management backed by $25 billion in annual purchasing spend across 38,000 global suppliers. Jabil's advanced manufacturing capabilities include silicon photonics for next-generation AI data centers, additive manufacturing, and sophisticated electronics assembly. As an S&P 500 company with zero debt on its balance sheet and return on invested capital exceeding 22%, Jabil continues to strengthen its position as the manufacturing partner of choice for the world's most innovative companies.
