  • Guide excludes effects from new U.S. tax law changes

Key Observations:

  • Growth driven by continued industrial demand recovery.
  • Margins expanded despite higher CapEx; operational leverage kicking in.
  • However, the flat sequential revenue guide midpoint ($4.63B) and limited EPS upside weighed on sentiment.

Peer & Context:

  • TXN’s +16% YoY revenue compares favorably to analog peers like $ADI and $MCHP, which saw more modest growth.
  • Investor focus remains on long-term industrial trends and ability to monetize heavy CapEx investments.

TI delivered strong Q2 growth, but investors are looking for more confidence in forward demand.
