Tough Guy,

Jabil launched a precision strike on the naysayers and doubting Thomases today at 4:30 EST. It was so surgical I almost expected Colin Powell to chime in. They had a full arsenal of facts and figures to deflect a few stupid questions in the Q&A. Seems like they were almost training for this conference call.

They came in a penny ahead and guided the numbers up about a nickel without provding guidance on '01. There might be some minor balance sheet concerns as DSO's ticked up from 38 to 42 days and inventory turns slowed a touch but they had adequate expanations for this IMO. Going forward they expect a little more linearity.

Valuation might be an issue at some point but they are poised for a solid year next year. They talked frequently about organic growth as opposed to growing through acquisition although some deals are likely.

I was not on the SLR call but I gotta believe this one went better. Lets see what the weenie analysts have to say tomorrow.
