Needham & Company Cuts Price Target and Estimates on Jabil Circuit (JBL) on Soft Near-Term Guidance

Needham & Company reiterates a 'Buy' on Jabil Circuit (NYSE: JBL) price target of $25.00 (from $29.00).

Analyst, S ean K.F. Hannan, said, "JBL appears to be facing an Aug. speed bump as RIM (Nasdaq: RIMM) creates disruption, macro pressures prevent E&I from exhibiting growth, and as DMS could be experiencing a slight timing delay (speculatively) ahead of a new ramp with Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL). While estimates are reduced, we remain positive on the 12-18 month prospects once the near-term hurdles are cleared and additional growth (revs. and margins) is sourced by new customers and platforms already in the pipeline (such as Medical)."

FY12 EPS estimate cut from $2.28 to $2.13 and FY13 from $2.69 to $2.55
