Security report / TXN

TXN Operating Console

Texas Instruments has credible analog-led recovery evidence, but the valuation already prices a cleaner FCF and capex-normalization path. The next proof window is Q2 revenue and EPS versus guide, Analog margin, inventory days, 2026 capex, FCF quality excluding incentive and timing effects, and Silicon Labs financing.

Current Company View

Recovery-quality test
Next read Q2 must land inside or above the $5.00B-$5.40B revenue guide without Analog margin, inventory, or FCF quality weakening.
Measured base

Q1 2026 revenue was $4.825B, up 19% year over year, with Analog revenue up 22%.

Main proof issue

Factory loading and lower capex need to turn revenue recovery into durable FCF per share.

Valuation context

The June 5 lane snapshot put TXN near 49x trailing earnings and 35x forward earnings using secondary market data.

Next evidence

Q2 guide delivery, Analog operating margin, inventory days, capex run-rate, CHIPS incentive bridge, and Silicon Labs financing terms.

Q1 revenue $4.825B +19% year over year
Analog mix 81.3% $3.924B of Q1 revenue
Gross margin 58.0% Q1 2026
TTM FCF $4.351B 23.6% FCF margin
Inventory days 209 Down from 222 at 2025 year-end
Cash / debt $5.103B / $14.050B Before Silicon Labs financing
Exposure Map

Business Profile, Segments, And Exposure

TXN is an analog-led semiconductor company with embedded processing as the second segment. The setup depends on broad electronics recovery, factory loading, and FCF conversion rather than direct accelerator supply.

Business model

Analog breadth with owned manufacturing

TI designs, manufactures, tests, and sells analog and embedded processing chips. The source lane ties the edge to more than 80,000 products, direct customer reach, and internal 300mm manufacturing.

Disclosure map

Two reportable segments, annual end-market mix

Quarterly results split Analog, Embedded Processing, and Other. Industrial, automotive, data-center, and personal-electronics exposure is mostly annual, so end-market breadth must be inferred carefully.

Analog

Core profit engine.

Analog produced $3.924B of Q1 revenue and $1.638B of operating profit, or about 90.6% of segment operating profit.

More useful evidence

Analog margin holding or improving as utilization rises.

Embedded Processing

Improving but lower margin.

Embedded Processing had $723M of Q1 revenue and $122M of operating profit, with Silicon Labs expected to increase strategic focus here.

More useful evidence

Post-deal financing cost, synergy timing, and embedded wireless contribution.

Industrial and automotive

Broad recovery test.

Each market represented 33% of FY2025 revenue, making non-AI semiconductor breadth central to the setup.

More useful evidence

Orders, cancellations, lead times, and inventory days that show durable end demand.

Data center spillover

Helpful but indirect.

Data center was 9% of FY2025 revenue. The exposure is power, signal-chain, and embedded content, not direct AI accelerator supply.

More useful evidence

Data-center growth that does not mask weak industrial or automotive breadth.

Value Driver Board

Relative Value And Value Drivers

TXN's valuation depends on recovery converting into cash. Revenue growth matters, but the decisive checks are Analog margin, capex, inventory, and deal funding.

Revenue and Analog
$5.00B-$5.40B Q2 guide

Q2 revenue and EPS need to confirm that Q1 was not just a first-half inventory-cycle bounce.

Next: Q2 revenue, EPS, Analog revenue, and management demand commentary.
Factory loading
58.0% Q1 gross margin

Owned 300mm capacity becomes a margin edge only if utilization rises with demand.

Next: gross margin, depreciation, utilization, and Analog operating margin.
FCF quality
$4.103B TTM capex

Lower capex supports FCF, but the quality test is operating conversion without leaning mainly on incentives or timing.

Next: 2026 capex versus $2B-$3B, FCF margin, and CHIPS incentive bridge.
Silicon Labs
$7.5B all-cash deal

The transaction can add embedded wireless exposure, but it shifts the proof burden toward financing, leverage, and integration.

Next: approvals, funding mix, interest cost, close timing, and synergy evidence.
Guidance Tests

Guidance Path And What Changed

The April 22 Q1 release beat the prior Q1 guide and set Q2 revenue guidance at $5.00B-$5.40B with EPS of $1.77-$2.05.

Question
Can Q2 validate the recovery?

Confirm revenue inside or above the guide with EPS in range or better.

Warn if revenue misses, EPS misses despite revenue in range, or management guides to weaker Q3 demand.

Question
Does Analog carry the margin proof?

Confirm Analog revenue and operating margin hold or improve as utilization rises.

Warn if Analog rolls over while expectations still price recovery durability.

Question
Is the FCF bridge clean?

Confirm capex tracks toward $2B-$3B and FCF improves without relying mainly on one-time effects.

Warn if inventory days rise again or capex stays elevated without demand evidence.

Operating Evidence

Operating Evidence And KPIs

These tiles summarize source-routed evidence. Use the lane and raw outputs for the full claim and evidence map.

Revenue recovery
$4.825B

Q1 revenue rose 19% year over year and 9% sequentially.

Analog profit
$1.638B

Analog operating profit rose 36% year over year and supplied most segment profit.

Cash conversion
$7.824B / $4.351B

TTM CFO and non-GAAP FCF improved, helped by lower capex and CHIPS proceeds.

Inventory discipline
209 days

Inventory days improved from year-end 2025 but remain high enough to watch order quality.

Capital Ledger

Financial Quality And Capital Allocation

Liquidity is strong, but capital allocation is no longer simple because dividends, capex, debt, buybacks, and Silicon Labs funding all compete with the FCF recovery.

Liquidity and debt

$5.103B cash plus short-term investments

At March 31, 2026, TXN had $14.050B of total debt, $1.149B of current debt, an undrawn $1B revolver, and no commercial paper outstanding.

Capital allocation

$1.291B dividends and $158M buybacks in Q1

Buybacks were modest versus dividends. The $7.5B Silicon Labs transaction adds cash and debt funding needs before the organic FCF-per-share path is fully proven.

Position Board

Competitive Position

TXN has a real analog franchise edge. The economics remain conditional on demand breadth and factory loading.

What TXN has

Analog scale

Analog generated about 81.3% of Q1 revenue and 90.6% of segment operating profit.

Manufacturing control

Owned 300mm capacity can lower unit cost when the factories are loaded.

Customer reach

FY2025 disclosures show more than 80% direct revenue and more than 80,000 products.

What is not proven

End-market breadth

Quarterly disclosure does not fully show whether industrial, automotive, and data-center growth is broad or concentrated.

FCF quality

Non-GAAP FCF includes CHIPS incentives and capex decline, so the operating conversion bridge needs to be separated.

M&A payoff

Silicon Labs financing terms, interest cost, leverage impact, and integration timing remain open.

Scenario Board

Scenario Assessment And Sensitivities

The source profile is constructive on operating recovery but demanding on proof because valuation, capex normalization, and M&A execution all need to work.

Base

TXN meets or modestly beats Q2 guidance, Analog remains the profit engine, capex tracks toward $2B-$3B, and FCF conversion improves.

Upside

Q2 beats, Analog and Embedded both improve, inventory days fall, capex trends toward the low end of guidance, and duration pressure eases.

Downside

Revenue or EPS misses, Analog margins weaken, inventory days rise, capex pressure persists, chip beta compresses valuation, or Silicon Labs financing absorbs the FCF recovery.

Trigger Stack

Monitoring Triggers

These are business evidence checks. Chart overlays remain in the shared overlay rules, outside this page.

Q2 results

Revenue and EPS versus guide

Confirm Q2 revenue inside or above $5.00B-$5.40B and EPS inside or above $1.77-$2.05.

Warn if revenue misses or EPS misses despite revenue in range.

Analog margin

Core segment durability

Confirm Analog revenue and operating margin hold or improve.

Warn if Analog revenue or margin rolls over while valuation remains recovery-sensitive.

FCF and capex

Cash conversion quality

Confirm capex tracks toward $2B-$3B while FCF margin improves without relying mainly on incentive effects.

Warn if capex materially exceeds the range without clear incremental demand.

Inventory

Order quality and channel discipline

Confirm inventory days keep falling as revenue grows.

Warn if inventory days rise again while revenue growth slows.

Silicon Labs

Financing and integration

Confirm approvals, financing mix, and synergy timing that fit current FCF capacity.

Warn if financing materially raises leverage, interest burden, or integration costs.

Semiconductor beta

Rate and chip-flow sensitivity

Confirm TXN holds valuation support through rate and SOXX volatility.

Warn if duration pressure or chip-sector drawdowns overwhelm solid company data.

Risk Punch Cards

Risks, Invalidations, And Quality Flags

The key risks are recovery quality, factory loading, valuation, M&A funding, disclosure precision, and FCF bridge quality.

Cycle quality
Basis

Q1 growth and Q2 guidance show recovery, but the source lane keeps demand breadth as the test.

Warning

Orders, cancellations, lead times, or Q3 commentary show a narrow or inventory-led recovery.

Reduce concern

Broad industrial, automotive, and data-center strength persists with clean inventory movement.

Owned-fab drag
Basis

300mm internal capacity is a cost edge only when utilization improves.

Warning

Gross margin or FCF weakens as expanded capacity remains underloaded.

Reduce concern

Analog margins improve while capex and depreciation pressure normalize.

Valuation air pocket
Basis

Secondary data in the lane showed high trailing and forward earnings multiples on June 5.

Warning

In-line results are treated as insufficient after the recovery repricing.

Reduce concern

Q2 and Q3 evidence beats the proof burden while FCF quality improves.

Silicon Labs funding
Basis

$7.5B all-cash deal expected to use cash on hand and debt financing.

Warning

Financing, leverage, interest cost, or integration cost absorbs too much FCF recovery.

Reduce concern

Funding terms and synergy timing preserve FCF per share and balance-sheet flexibility.

Disclosure limits
Basis

End-market detail is annual, while segment data are quarterly.

Warning

Quarterly growth cannot be tied to broad industrial and automotive breadth.

Reduce concern

Management gives clearer order, lead-time, cancellation, and end-market commentary.

FCF bridge quality
Basis

Non-GAAP FCF includes CHIPS incentives and capex decline.

Warning

Reported FCF improves without margin, utilization, or working-capital support.

Reduce concern

Recurring operating cash conversion improves alongside lower capex.
