JABIL REPORTS RECORD FOURTH QUARTER & FISCAL YEAR 2006 REVENUES

Full Financial Results Anticipated to be Filed With 10-K on November 14

St. Petersburg, FL – September 26, 2006... Jabil Circuit, Inc. (NYSE: JBL), a global electronic product solutions company, today reported unaudited net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 ended August 31, 2006 increased 45 percent to $3.0 billion compared to $2.0 billion for the same period of fiscal 2005. Net revenue for the fiscal year increased 36 percent to $10.3 billion compared to $7.5 billion for fiscal 2005.

“Strong revenue growth continued in our fiscal fourth quarter,” said Timothy Main, Jabil’s president and CEO. “The trend to outsourcing continues to be robust and Jabil’s position in the marketplace continues to rise. We expect to open fiscal 2007 with another record quarter of revenue in the range of $3.1 to $3.3 billion and expect fiscal 2007 revenue growth of approximately 20 percent. While we regret being unable to provide complete financial details at this time, we do anticipate filing our 10K by the November 14^th filing deadline,” said Main.

Last week, the Office of the Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission ( the “SEC”) publicly issued general guidance for public companies concerning various issues that have arisen in connection with the recent wide spread evaluations by public companies of their historical stock option issuance processes. Jabil is in the process of evaluating this guidance. It is premature to determine whether or not the application of that guidance to the Company’s circumstances will result in it recording any additional compensation expense, or that it will cause the Company to determine that it would need to restate financial results for any prior period.

As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed a special committee of the Board to review the company’s stock options grant practices in response to derivative lawsuits filed concerning certain stock options grants. In addition, a similar derivative lawsuit has been filed in Federal Court, as well as a purported class action securities fraud lawsuit concerning historical statements the Company has made with respect to stock options. The special committee of the Board is in the process of conducting its investigation and analysis of the claims asserted in the derivative action. Jabil is cooperating fully with these on-going investigations of the Board’s special committee, the SEC’s informal inquiry on stock option grants and the subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office regarding certain stock option-related material. The Company does not anticipate having any additional comment on this topic until it makes its next filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The company recognized restructuring and impairment charges of $84.6 million in connection with the restructuring plans along with a deferred tax valuation allowance totaling $35.6 million associated with such plans. Jabil estimates that the realignment of capacity could result in approximately $200 to $250 million of charges. The cash cost of these charges are estimated to be in a range of $150 to $200 million over the course of the next two fiscal years. Discussions with impacted employees and their representatives are underway and the Company is complying with all required statutory and consultation periods. Based upon the information available at this time, the Company estimates that it will record additional costs throughout fiscal 2007 with the majority of these costs being recorded near the end of fiscal 2007. Cash outlays associated with these activities are estimated to occur in the second half of fiscal 2007 and through fiscal 2008.

Fiscal 2007 Guidance:

Jabil management estimates first fiscal quarter of 2007 to be in a revenue range of $3.1 billion to $3.3 billion, or an increase of five to twelve percent sequentially. Jabil said full fiscal year revenue was expected to be approximately 20 percent higher than fiscal 2006.
