The industry itself · before any single company
How has Electronic Components moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers 5.2 years. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 177% ahead of S&P 500. Earnings across its companies grew 15% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of S&P 500 on a rolling three-month view for 62 weeks running.

Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 30 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
Sector relative strength · before individual stocks
Is Electronic Components outperforming S&P 500?

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Celestica Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 82% evidence confidence.
M-tron Industries, Inc. looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
Plexus Corp. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.

Jabil Inc. has the highest Revenue among the 30 Electronic Components companies compared here, at $33,590 million. Flex Ltd. is next at $27,914 million. LightPath Technologies, Inc. has the highest Revenue growth at 87.9%, so level and change sit with different companies. 24 of 30 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Jabil Inc. is the scale leader at $33,590 million, 20.3% ahead of Flex Ltd.. LightPath Technologies, Inc.'s growth is 87.9% from a $62 million base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window.

This conclusion weakens if: Jabil Inc.'s growth falls below LightPath Technologies, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

This conclusion weakens if: CAPEX rises without higher utilization, operating cash flow or incremental returns.
CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This Electronic Components comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 30 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.

AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 30 Electronic Components companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-28. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

These 18 answers restate the Electronic Components comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 30 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-28. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Which Electronic Components company is the biggest?
Jabil Inc. is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $33,590 million, ahead of Flex Ltd. at $27,914 million. That covers 24 of 30 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.
Which Electronic Components company is growing fastest?
LightPath Technologies, Inc. has the fastest revenue growth at 87.9% year on year, across 24 of 30 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.
Which Electronic Components company has the best profit margins?
Universal Display Corporation has the highest operating margin at 30.1%, from 30 of 30 comparable companies. Ouster, Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +33.5 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.
Which Electronic Components company makes the most profit?
Amphenol Corporation earns the most, at $4,504 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 24 of 30 comparable companies. Allient Inc. has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Electronic Components company earns the highest return on capital?
Celestica Inc. leads on return on capital employed at 9.1%, across 30 of 30 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Electronic Components stock is the cheapest?
On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Celestica Inc. screens cheapest at 0.62×. Only 16 of 30 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Electronic Components company has the strongest balance sheet?
M-tron Industries, Inc. carries the lowest comparable gross debt at $0 million, from 29 of 30 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.
Which Electronic Components company is investing most in new capacity?
Corning Incorporated reports the largest capital spending at $332 million, across 30 of 30 companies. Spending consumes cash before it earns anything, so treat the ranking as a diligence queue: check commissioning, utilisation and the return earned on the completed assets before reading spend as value creation.
Is the Electronic Components sector beating the market?
Electronic Components has outperformed S&P 500 by 70.8% over the last 52 weeks and 3.1% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 21 of 30 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which Electronic Components stock has the strongest price momentum?
Methode Electronics, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Electronic Components company scores highest for research priority?
Celestica Inc. scores 65.4 out of 100 with 82% evidence confidence, from 28.2 points on growth and earnings, 15.2 on capital efficiency, 15.2 on valuation and 6.8 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
