| KPI (Q3) | Actual | YoY | Quick Thesis Check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Analog revenue | $3.73B | +16% | Core TI engine re-accelerating; supports multi-year share/300mm thesis. |
| Embedded Processing revenue | $709M | +9% | Early-cycle lift; auto/industrial recovery still staggered. |
| Operating margin | ~35% | +~120 bps vs. rev* | Solid incrementals despite cost headwinds. (*Derived from $1.663B / $4.742B.) |
| TTM Free Cash Flow | $2.42B (+65%) | — | FCF inflecting as fabs scale; supports dividends/buybacks through cycle. |
| Cash returned (TTM) | $6.56B (Div $4.95B, Buybacks $1.61B) | +26% | Capital return remains a priority alongside $4.8B TTM CapEx. |
TI’s cycle playbook is intact (Analog 300mm cost advantage plus disciplined returns). Near-term, lower Q4 guide and EPS headwinds cap multiple expansion, but broad-based demand FCF rebuild support the long game.
