Needham & Company reiterates a 'Strong Buy' on Jabil Circuit (NYSE: JBL), PT increased by $1 to $26.

Needham analyst says, "Jabil continues to perform in the recovering environment due to superior execution and important (as well as timely) strategic repositioning. While the intended diversification (becoming 50% DMS) may not materialize in the model for a few years, we continue to hold a favorable view of mix migration toward this higher-growth and healthy-margin business segment (including Clean Tech) where Jabil also appears to be establishing true leadership among contract manufacturers."

"Raising Estimates Again. F3Q becomes $4.15B in revs. and $0.57 (excl. ~$0.07 of options), vs. prior $3.94B and $0.52. For F11, model now $16.4B and $2.35, vs. our prior $16.2B and $2.24. Our F12 estimate likely conservative."
