Sanmina: The 2027 Guidance Provides Comfort

Sanmina delivered a blowout Q2, with revenues more than doubling to $4.01 billion, driven by the ZT Systems acquisition and robust AI/data center demand. Q2 results exceeded expectations, but management confirmed sales were pulled forward, with H2 2024 revenues expected to normalize around a $14 billion run rate. Sanmina's 2027 guidance targets over $16 billion in sales and realistic earnings of $11 per share, supporting recent share price re-rating to 20x forward earnings.
