- Your utilization rates have dropped to around 70% due to surplus capacity, yet you have decided not to restructure or reduce the number of sites, believing end markets will come back. How confident are you in this approach, and what is the risk to margins if demand does not recover as expected?
- In fiscal '24, you divested your mobility business and reshaped your portfolio away from legacy networking, accounting for $2.4 billion in revenue loss. How do you plan to achieve organic growth in fiscal '25, and what strategies are in place to offset this significant reduction in revenue?
- Given the anticipated 12% year-on-year growth in the Intelligent Infrastructure segment, primarily driven by AI and data center infrastructure, are you seeing any signs of slowdown or risks to sustaining this growth rate, especially considering potential impacts from consignment in fiscal '25?
- With your AI-related businesses expected to deliver margins in line with or slightly accretive to enterprise targets, can you provide more clarity on the profitability of these investments, and how sustainable are these margins given the rapid pace of technology advancement and competition in AI hardware?
- Despite acknowledging challenges in harnessing AI and the need for significant investment in capabilities such as advanced packaging OSAT and process development for photonics, how are you addressing these challenges to ensure Jabil remains competitive, and what are the potential risks if these investments do not yield the expected returns?
