MEDIUM confidence: 100% data completeness, but the composite (46) sits in the indecisive 30–70 range — strong-buy and short calls require a more decisive composite. What does confidence mean?

Absolute figures with year-over-year change. Margins show the level with the change in percentage points (pp). “n/m” = not meaningful (prior ≤ 0); ⚠ marks a large percentage off a small base — read the dollar figure.
Working the DCF backward: holding the assumptions below, this is the free-cash-flow growth today's price implies over the next 10 years. It is a read on the price's embedded expectations — not a fair-value or target price.
The price implies FCF growth below the analyst consensus of 26.0%/yr (revenue basis).
Base free cash flow $249M (avg FY2023–FY2025; latest year $473M) · equity value $8.9B · levered FCF discounted at the cost of equity. Reverse DCF is illustrative, not advice.
Net insider -$31.6M over 180 days (0 open-market buys, 8 sells). Insider buying is the informative signal; routine selling is normal.
Short interest, days-to-cover, and institutional-ownership change require a data-plan upgrade (not yet available).

The QScore of 46 for Sanmina Corporation suggests a neutral outlook, with the stock scoring high on value due to its relatively low EV/EBITDA of 13.2, but lower on profitability and risk factors. Growth and momentum categories are middling, driven by 7.4% revenue growth and a 19.9% 12-month return, offset by a recent 14.3% decline over the past three months. The long-term and short-term scores are relatively aligned, indicating no significant divergence in the stock's outlook. Sanmina's ROE of 12.6% and FCF yield of 6.7% are notable, but its beta of 1.6 and high volatility contribute to its lower risk score.
