Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On September 17, 2004, Plexus Corp. determined to change its fiscal year, beginning in fiscal 2005. Plexus’ fiscal year will now end on the Saturday nearest to September 30 of each year, rather than on September 30 as is currently the case. In connection with the change to a fiscal year ending on the Saturday nearest September 30, Plexus will also change the accounting for its interim periods to adopt a "4-4-5" accounting system for the "monthly" periods in each quarter; each quarter will therefore end on a Saturday at the end of the 4-4-5 period.

The change in fiscal year will coincide with the end of fiscal 2004, and will become effective on October 1, 2004. Therefore, the new fiscal year quarters will be first reflected on Plexus’ Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending on January 1, 2005. Because the fiscal year end will remain within seven days of September 30, no "transitional report" will be required.
