The analyst expects the company to earn $1.69 per share in fiscal 2015 and applies a 13x multiple, resulting in a new $22 price target which was raised from a previous $20. Shares were maintained with a Hold rating.

“Strong results were driven by upside in the Diversified Manufacturing (DM) segment, which significantly beat guidance, while the Electronics Manufacturing (EM) segment was in-line,” Scribner wrote in a note.
