For fiscal 2011, EPS not only increased 5.0% from the previous-year quarter to $2.30, but also surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.28.

		<description><![CDATA[Raven Industries (RAVN) reported an EPS of $0.86 in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 versus $0.72 in the year-earlier quarter, outperforming the Zacks Estimate of $0.74. The improvement was largely driven by the double-digit growth in sales in the Applied Technology and Aerostar segment. The company expects a record year in terms of sales and earnings, mainly driven by higher farm income. Given the company&#8217;s investments and cost-effective products, more and more customers would turn to Raven. In the long-term Raven expects net income growth in the range of 12%-15%. Thus, we reiterate our Outperform recommendation on the stock with a target price of $68.00. Our target price is 27.0x 2012 EPS, and reflects this recommendation.

However, earnings per share (EPS) increased 75.0% year over year from 28 cents (including stock-based compensation but excluding amortization) reported in the prior-year quarter. The strong results were driven by solid revenue growth in the quarter (up 22.2% year over year to $4.23 billion). Operating Performance Net income surged 83.4% year over year to $109.9 million. Net margin was 2.6% in the quarter compared with 1.7% in the year-ago period. The solid bottom-line growth was driven by operating margin expansion in the quarter.

		<description><![CDATA[A leading electronic parts manufacturer, Jabil Circuit Inc. (JBL) is scheduled to release its third quarter 2011 results on June 21, 2011, after the market closes. Jabil shares have declined 3.1% following the second quarter 2011 results. However, Jabil’s second quarter results beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate as well as management’s expectation. Jabil provided an upbeat third quarter guidance driven by stable business trends and growth across all business segments. Management also pointed out that continued focus on diversification and a differentiated business model will help the company grow throughout fiscal 2011. However, we believe that intense competition and a slowdown at Jabil’s customer, Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO) (15% revenue share in 2010) are the primary areas of concern going forward. Jabil posted an average earnings surprise of 1.49% over ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jabil Circuit&#8217;s (JBL) first quarter 2011 results were above the Zacks Consensus Estimate, driven by strong top-line growth and better-than-expected operating margins. We expect Jabil to achieve strong top-line growth with operating margin leverage and robust earnings momentum over the long term, riding on new business wins, growth in IT enterprise spending, a recovery in end-market demand and transition to higher margin business. The company provided upbeat second quarter guidance as it is experiencing stable business trends and growth across all business areas. We have raised our revenue and EPS estimates by 4.7% and 15.3%, respectively, for fiscal 2011. However, intense competition and a slowdown at Jabil&#8217;s customer Cisco (15% revenue share in 2010) are areas of concern. We upgrade the stock to Outperform and raise our target price to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shares of electronic parts manufacturer Jabil Circuit Inc. (JBL) have declined nearly 1% in Tuesday trading as fourth quarter 2010 revenue missed Street expectations. However, Jabil’s reported earnings (including stock-based compensation expense and one-time expenses) increased significantly in the quarter to 52 cents per share, beating Street expectations of 48 cents. Earnings per share were above management’s guidance range of 45 cents to 50 cents. Earnings (excluding stock-based compensation but including one-time charges) leapt 251.7% year over year to 35 cents per share in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared to 10 cents per share in the prior-year quarter. This was 5 cents below the Zacks Consensus Estimate. This strong growth was driven by better-than-expected top line growth and a stronger operating margin in the quarter.

Revenues and earnings both jumped on a year-over-year and sequential basis. Moreover, the company provided an upbeat fourth quarter guidance, well above the consensus expectation. In our view, this is significantly positive, as results continued to improve consecutively in the last four quarters. Results for the quarter benefited from significant operating margin expansion. Each of the segments grew above management&#8217;s expectation both sequentially and year-over-year given strong end-market demand.

(JBL) with an expectation of revenue growth based on a recovery in the overall EMS industry in the current year and next, aided by an improving economic environment and a rise in the IT spending. EMS Industry Expected to Grow We believe that the EMS industry is well positioned to demonstrate strong growth over the next few years, driven by non-traditional or emerging EMS sectors such as industrial and medical and improving technology spending. While the trend towards outsourcing in networking, enterprise computing, consumer electronics and other sectors are mature, JBL is seeking other sectors to drive growth all over again.

		<description><![CDATA[Jabil Circuit, Inc. (JBL) recently reported its preliminary results for the second quarter 2010, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Jabil’s second quarter is normally a sequentially down quarter due to the seasonal slowdown in consumer spending. Despite the unfavorable seasonality, Jabil posted a much higher profit for the quarter. Results benefited from significant year-over-year margin expansion on modest revenue growth. Management said that since fiscal 2004, the results for the second quarter of 2010 represented the lowest sequential decline in revenue and core operating margin. In our view, this is very positive, as results continue to improve. The shares rose 3.32% (or 59 cents) and closed at $18.36 yesterday. We expect Jabil to resume growth by the end of the fiscal 2010 on account of new business wins Incorporatedrease in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain our Neutral rating on Plexus Corp. (PLXS) but raise our price target to $39.00. Our target price represents a multiple of 19.4X our 2010 EPS estimate, a premium to the peer group and the S&#38;P 500. Plexus exhibited incremental growth opportunities in the first quarter of 2010 and we expect growth to reaccelerate in the second half of fiscal 2010 and get stronger in the year 2011 as the economy recovers and spending improves. The company also provided a robust guidance for the upcoming quarter. A strong cash position and impressive cash flow are other positives for the stock. We believe that over the long-term, Plexus will be in the top tier of the EMS universe with the highest gross margin and above industry growth rates. Plexus’ first-quarter ]]></description>

The result beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 34 cents, and was above management’s guidance of 31 to 36 cents. Earnings per share were even with last year&#8217;s 44 cents and benefited from a lower tax rate in the quarter. Revenue for the quarter came in at $430.4 million, a decrease of 5.6% from $456.1 million in the year-ago quarter. While revenue was at the high end of the company’s guided range of $405 – $430 million, the company still witnessed demand volatility in the quarter. Management expects the choppy demand environment to continue in the near term, as supply chain constraints continue. Sector performance was mixed, ]]></description>

Plexus Corp. is currently rated as a Zacks Rank #3 (Neutral) stock, indicating that it should perform in line with the overall market over the next 1?3 months. Plexus had provided an encouraging guidance for the reportable quarter. The company expects modest revenue growth in the range of $405 – $430 million, up 6% quarter over quarter at the mid point due to the ramp-up of new business wins and improving customer demand. The company expects earnings per share in the range of 31 cents – 36 cents, up 12% at the mid point excluding restructuring charges but including 5 cents per share in stock-based compensation ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have downgraded Plexus Corp. (PLXS) to Neutral from our previous Outperform rating with a six-month price target of $31. Our target price represents a multiple of 19.6X our 2010 EPS estimate, slightly above the S&#38;P 500. The impact of weak economic conditions significantly contributed to reduced revenue, gross margin and return on invested capital (ROIC) in fiscal 2009. During fiscal 2009, the company’s ROIC was 13.2%, gross margin was 9.6% and operating margin was 3.3%. This compares to ROIC of 20.1%, gross margin of 11.2% and operating margin of 5.6% in 2008. Results were negatively impacted by the decline in net sales and unfavorable changes in customer mix, as well as reduced demand from Juniper Networks (JNPR) – the company’s largest customer accounting for 20% of revenues.

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, Raven Industries Inc. (RAVN) reported fiscal third quarter results. The company posted earnings of 40 cents per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 38 cents. However, quarterly earnings were 13% lower than last year due to the impact of economic downturn on the company’s top-line. Quarterly sales declined 20% to $60.2 million from $75.5 million in the year-ago quarter due to lower sales at three of its four segments. The Engineered Films Division reported a 30% decline in sales to $18.7 million, reflecting continued weakness in two of its major end markets (construction and energy). The company managed to partially offset the impact of lower sales by focusing on cost controls and productivity improvements in the division. In the Applied Technology Division, sales fell 19% to $21.0 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Raven Industries, Inc. (RAVN) recently entered into an agreement to buy Ranchview, Inc., a privately-held Canadian corporation. The company did not disclose the terms of the deal but said that this acquisition will contribute to next years’ earnings. Ranchview develops products that use cellular networks instead of the traditional radio systems that are typically used to deliver RTK (Real Time Kinematic) corrections to GPS enabled equipment. RTK corrections improve the accuracy of GPS equipment. This acquisition is in-line with Raven’s plans of increasing its market share in precision agriculture. The company sees increased acceptance of precision agricultural equipment as an essential tool for maximizing yields. Agricultural market fundamentals remain strong and we believe the Applied Technology division will continue to be a primary growth driver for Raven in the long-term. ]]></description>

The company expects the shipment of parachutes under this first order during the fiscal year beginning February 2010. The contract is expected to have annual releases that will continue through 2014. Despite securing an order for the first year and expected annual reorders, the company is not certain about the magnitude of the entire contract as it is an indefinite delivery and indefinite quantity contract.

(PLXS) is well positioned to benefit from the increasing trend of outsourcing at the medical, industrial and defense/aerospace OEMs. Revenue growth at Plexus has been above expectations, with a growth of 19.1% in 2008, above its target of 15.0% to 18.0%. Deriving more than 50% of its business from high-margin, high-growth markets such as defense/security/aerospace, medical and industrial, the company expects to increase revenue from the current $1.8 billion in fiscal 2008 to $3.0 billion by fiscal 2013. Plexus provided encouraging fourth quarter of 2009 guidance and expects revenue in the range of $380.0 – $405.0 million and earnings in the range of 27 cents to 32 ]]></description>

(PLXS) is a leading provider of electronic manufacturing services (EMS) to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and serves customers of mid-to-low volume, higher margin and high growth segments of the EMS market. We recently downgraded the stock from Outperform to Neutral due to some inherent risks. The company’s third-quarter results were in line with management’s guidance, with revenue exceeding the Zacks Consensus estimate. However, performance of all its sectors declined sequentially. The company’s fourth-quarter guidance was decent. We believe that Plexus is among the best positioned in the industry. With a strong pipeline, new customer wins and increased cost-cutting measures, the company is poised for growth beyond 2009. However, the contract manufacturing industry is highly competitive and margins have been low throughout the industry. Plexus is small player compared ]]></description>

Quarterly earnings were 11% lower than last year due to the impact of economic downturn on the company’s two largest divisions. Quarterly sales declined 18% to $56.6 million from $69.3 million in the year-ago quarter due to lower sales at the Engineered Films and the Applied Technology segments. The Engineered Films Division reported a 43% decline in sales to $15.0 million, reflecting continued weakness in two of its major end markets (construction and energy).
