Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Jabil reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 net revenue of $7.0 billion, down from $8.5 billion a year earlier, and core diluted EPS of $2.30, down from $2.45. Fiscal 2025 guidance calls for net revenue of $27.0 billion, below fiscal 2024's $28.9 billion, and the board approved a restructuring plan with $150 million to $200 million in pre-tax costs, which may weigh on shareholders in the near term.

Key points
