See companies we've covered ›History and context
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) is an American multinational semiconductor company headquartered in Dallas, Texas. It is one of the top 10 semiconductor companies worldwide based on sales volume. The company's focus is on developing analog chips and embedded processors, which account for more than 80% of its revenue. TI also produces digital light processing (DLP) technology and education technology products including calculators, microcontrollers, and multi-core processors.
Texas Instruments emerged in 1951 from the reorganization of Geophysical Service Incorporated, a company founded in 1930 that manufactured equipment for the seismic industry and defense electronics. TI produced the world's first commercial silicon transistor in 1954, and the same year designed and manufactured the first transistor radio. Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit in 1958 while working at TI's Central Research Labs. TI also invented the handheld calculator in 1967 and introduced the first single-chip microcontroller in 1970, combining all the elements of computing onto a single chip.

Moat not rated yet
We haven't rated Texas Instruments's moat. A rating needs at least five years of returns against the cost of capital, plus evidence for each of the five lenses.

The five questions, and the price
Six checks from the annual reports. A flag marks a reason to dig deeper, not a verdict.
- 1. Is it growing?Reason to dig deeper
+4.1% a year
Revenue growth over 5–10 years
Revenue $14.5B in FY2020 to $17.7B in FY2025; +3.1% a year over 10 years. It fell in 2 of the last 5 years.
Sales have grown about 4.1% a year for five years, so each $1 of sales in FY2020 is about $1.22 now.
What to look for Steady growth, not one lucky year.
Source: FY2020 10-K, filed 5 Feb 2021; FY2025 10-K, filed 6 Feb 2026.
- 2. Is it profitable?Reason to dig deeper
34.1%
Operating margin (operating income ÷ revenue)
FY2025 operating margin. 5-year average 42.1%, range 34.1% to 50.6%.
Texas Instruments kept about 34 cents of operating profit from each $1 of sales in FY2025.
What to look for Stable or rising. It's cleaner than net income, which one-off items and tax can distort.
Source: FY2025 10-K, filed 6 Feb 2026.
- 3. Is the profit real cash?Reason to dig deeper
$2.6B
Free cash flow (operating cash flow − capex), and FCF ÷ net income
FY2025 free cash flow: operating cash flow $7.2B less capex $4.5B. Over 5 years FCF was 54% of net income.
For every $1 of reported profit over 5 years, about $0.54 turned up as spare cash.
What to look for FCF positive and growing, and close to net income over time.
Source: FY2025 10-K, filed 6 Feb 2026.
- 4. Is it a good business?Within the guide
23.0% ROIC
Return on invested capital (ROIC); ROE for banks
FY2025 ROIC. 5-year average 50.7%; above 10% in 5 of 5 years. ROIC here is our calculation from the 10-K figures: operating income after tax (at the year's effective rate, or 21% where that rate is meaningless) over shareholders' equity plus borrowings less cash and short-term investments at the start of the year. Leases are left out.
Each $1 tied up in the business has earned about 51 cents a year after tax.
What to look for Clearly above the cost of capital (roughly 8–10%). Sustained 15%+ usually means a moat.
Source: FY2025 10-K, filed 6 Feb 2026.
- 5. Can it survive a bad year?Reason to dig deeper
3.5x FCF
Net debt ÷ EBITDA or ÷ FCF, plus interest cover
FY2025 year end: borrowings $14.0B, cash and short-term investments $4.9B, net debt $9.2B. Operating income covers interest 11.1x.
At last year's pace, Texas Instruments's spare cash would pay off its net debt in about 3.5 years.
What to look for Debt payable from about 3 years of FCF or less, interest covered many times.
Source: FY2025 10-K, filed 6 Feb 2026.
- 6. Is the price right?
1.0% FCF yield
FCF yield or EV/EBIT, and price against a cash-flow value
Market cap $252.5B. FCF yield 1.0% on FY2025 free cash flow. EV/EBIT 43.4x on FY2025 operating income.
At this price, each $100 of shares comes with about $1.03 of last year's spare cash.
What to look for Pay less than a cash-flow value estimate, with a margin of safety.

Crowd favourite or value trap?
Neither is a label we can put on a stock. These are signs worth looking into, each from a figure on this page.
