May 26th, 2009

Xilinx Inc. (XLNX) continues to see upward revisions in earnings estimates. Since the stock was last featured as a Growth and Income pick in late April, analysts bumped up fiscal year earnings forecasts from 77 cents per share to 89 cents.

The Street Remains Bullish

Wall Street Analysts remain upbeat on the company’s earnings prospects. First-quarter earnings estimates of 22 cents per share are above 2 months-ago forecasts of 17 cents. For the fiscal year ending March 2010, forecasts of 89 cents were increased from the 2 months-ago level of 75 cents.

Favorable Industry Comparisons Includes a Robust Dividend Yield
