Sanmina Shares Up 10.8% Since Q3 Beat, Outlook Raised
Sanmina Corporation's shares have risen 10.8% since its last earnings report, outperforming the S&P 500, as the company reported strong fiscal third-quarter results and raised its full-year guidance. Non-GAAP earnings came in at $3.31 per share, up 116% year over year and beating the consensus estimate of $2.78, while revenues of $3.46 billion increased 69.7% and exceeded expectations. The growth was driven by cloud and AI infrastructure demand, with core Sanmina revenues up 17% to $2.4 billion and ZT Systems contributing $1.1 billion. Management raised its fiscal 2026 revenue outlook to $14.0-$14.3 billion and non-GAAP earnings to $11.90-$12.20 per share, and reiterated confidence in exceeding $16 billion in revenue for fiscal 2027. The company ended the quarter with $1.84 billion in cash and no borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
Sanmina Halts Buybacks as AI Ramp Takes Cash Priority
Sanmina repurchased no shares in its June quarter, leaving about $600 million of board authorization unused, and the cash is instead funding an AI-driven expansion. The company's stock has fallen 26.5% over the past three months and trades about 32% below its 52-week high, despite being up 65.5% over the past twelve months. Over the last three years, Sanmina shrank its share count by about 2.4% a year on average, which widened the gap between EPS growth of 4.4% and net income growth of 2.6%. However, the share count has fallen just 0.5% over the past year, as the company prioritizes spending on metal fabrication for AI system racks, high-technology PCBs, and a new medium-voltage transformer business. Revenue reached $3.46 billion in fiscal Q3 2026, up 69.7% year over year, but free cash flow dropped to $23.6 million from $342 million in the prior quarter due to working capital investment. Management expects the pressure to continue, with the next-generation accelerated compute program set to contribute revenue in fiscal Q1 2027, and the 8% non-GAAP operating margin must hold above the long-term 6% to 7% range. Trailing free cash flow still covers shareholder payouts about 2.5 times, and net debt is near 0.5 times EBITDA, so the buyback pause is a preference, not a limit.
Sanmina Raises Full-Year Revenue Outlook on AI Infrastructure Demand
Sanmina Corporation reported third-quarter 2026 sales of US$3.46 billion, up from US$2.04 billion a year earlier, and raised its full-year revenue guidance to a range of US$14.00 billion to US$14.30 billion, citing strong contributions from communications networks, cloud, and AI infrastructure. Net income rose to US$117.13 million, with diluted earnings per share from continuing operations improving to US$2.12. The company's updated outlook, up from a prior low end of US$13.70 billion, reflects AI-driven growth and expanding manufacturing capacity, though risks remain around concentrated AI data center demand and ZT Systems inventory exposure.
Sanmina Turns Revenue Growth Into Higher Profitability
Sanmina Corporation has demonstrated an ability to convert revenue growth into stronger margins and earnings. The company posted strong revenue growth driven by cloud and AI infrastructure demand, contributions from the ZT Systems acquisition, and expanding customer programs. Gross and operating margins improved due to a favorable business mix, disciplined cost management, higher non-recurring engineering services, and increasing operating leverage. Higher revenue and operating leverage translated into stronger earnings, an earnings beat, and increased fiscal 2026 guidance. The stock carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), a Value Score of A, Growth Score of A, Momentum Score of B, and VGM Score of A.
Sanmina reported quarterly earnings of $3.31 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.78 per share by 19.07%. Revenue came in at $3.46 billion, surpassing the consensus estimate by 0.90% and more than doubling the year-ago figure of $2.04 billion. The company has now exceeded consensus EPS and revenue estimates in each of the last four quarters. Sanmina shares have gained about 38.9% year-to-date, outpacing the S&P 500's 8.3% advance.

Microbot Medical signs manufacturing deal with Sanmina to boost LIBERTY system capacity
Microbot Medical has entered into a Letter of Agreement with Sanmina Corporation to manufacture the LIBERTY Endovascular Robotic System, the only FDA-cleared single-use, remotely operated robotic system for peripheral endovascular procedures. The partnership is expected to increase manufacturing capacity to meet rising demand from existing and new accounts in the U.S. and international markets, while also supporting the company's cost reduction strategy. Sanmina will serve as a second manufacturing site, which Microbot anticipates will improve operating efficiencies, lower costs, and expand gross margins.

Sanmina Named Top Pick While M&T Bank and TFS Financial Underwhelm
StockStory identifies Sanmina as a stock to buy, citing outstanding annual revenue growth of 19.3% over the past two years and projected revenue growth of 29.3% for the next 12 months, which points to accelerating demand. Share repurchases helped drive annual earnings per share growth of 25.3%, outpacing revenue gains. In contrast, M&T Bank is flagged for muted 3% annual revenue growth over the last two years and estimated net interest income growth of just 3.3% for the next 12 months, signaling slowing demand. TFS Financial is also passed over due to weak unit economics reflected in a net interest margin of 1.7%, one of the worst among bank companies, and annual earnings per share growth of only 2% over the last five years.
