May 8 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures extended gains on Friday after a stronger-than-expected jobs report signaled resilience in the labor market and eased concerns about a slowdown in the U.S. economy.

A Labor Department report showed the U.S. economy added 115,000 jobs last month, compared with the economists' estimates for a rise of 62,000. The unemployment rate stood at 4.3%, compared with expectations of 4.3%.

At 08:33 a.m., Dow E-minis YMcv1 were up 207 points, or 0.42%, and S&P 500 E-minis EScv1 were up 43.5 points, or 0.59%. Nasdaq 100 E-minis NQcv1 were up 247 points, or 0.86%.
