In addition, core Sanmina grew 7.3% year-over-year, in line with expectations."

"Based on our results for the first half of the year and our outlook for the third quarter, we expect to deliver revenue in the range of $13.7 to $14.3 billion for fiscal 2026, and we see strong growth potential ahead.
