Except as noted, financial results are for continuing operations.
The sale of TI’s former Sensors & Controls business was completed
on April 27, 2006, and that business is reported as a discontinued operation.
DALLAS (April 21, 2008) – Financial results from Texas Instruments
Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) for the first quarter reflect the company’s
strengthening position in the market for analog semiconductors.
TI revenue was up 3 percent from the year-ago quarter, led by 20 percent
growth in high-performance analog semiconductors. TI’s operating
profit grew 19 percent. “Analog is making us stronger and will be
a great growth opportunity for a very long time. Analog goes into almost
every piece of electronic equipment that is made, and at TI we have the
technology and the manufacturing power to serve much more of this market
than we are addressing today. There also are clear benefits to our operating
profit, which has grown faster than revenue, and to our cash flow, which
we can return to shareholders or reinvest in growth," said Rich Templeton,
TI’s chairman, president and CEO.
Compared with the fourth quarter, TI revenue declined 8 percent primarily
due to weaker sales into cell phones, especially high-end cell phones.
“Given uncertainty in the near-term economy, we have become more
conservative with our outlook for the second quarter. More strategically,
we believe our long-term opportunity is excellent. We’re continuing
to do the things needed to be the better choice for our customers, such
as adding sales and applications engineers, investing in new products,
and increasing assembly/test capability,” Templeton said.
“In addition to traditional markets in communications and entertainment,
analog semiconductors and digital signal processors are at the heart
of solving some of the world’s most challenging problems in healthcare,
energy and security. We’ve achieved early positions in each of
these, all of which are just beginning to leverage semiconductor technology,”
Templeton said.

from the prior quarter.
-
Operating expenses were $514 million for research and development (R&D)
and $435 million for selling, general and administrative (SG&A).
R&D expense decreased $38 million from a year ago as the company
continues to benefit from its collaborative work with foundries on
advanced digital process technologies. R&D expense was about the
same as the prior quarter. SG&A expense increased $30 million
from the year-ago quarter primarily due to higher investments in field
sales and customer support, especially for emerging regions. SG&A
expense increased $13 million from the prior quarter.
-
Operating profit was $807 million, or 24.7 percent of revenue. This
was an increase of $127 million from the year-ago quarter. Operating
profit decreased $189 million from the prior quarter.
-
Other income was $33 million. This was down $6 million from the year-ago
quarter and down $13 million from the prior quarter due to lower interest
income.
-
Income from continuing operations was $662 million, including a discrete
tax benefit of $81 million associated with the company’s decision
to indefinitely reinvest the accumulated earnings of a non-U.S. subsidiary.
Income from continuing operations increased $146 million from the
year-ago quarter and declined $91 million from the prior quarter.
-
Earnings per share (EPS) were $0.49 and included a discrete tax benefit

- Total cash (cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments)
was $1.88 billion at the end of the quarter. This was $1.46 billion
lower than a year ago and $1.05 billion lower than the prior quarter.
The company reduced its holdings of auction-rate securities, which are
based on pools of student loans that are guaranteed by the U.S. Department
of Education, by $473 million from the end of the prior quarter. As
of the end of the first quarter, TI reclassified its remaining auction-rate
securities, which have a fair value of $551 million, from short-term
investments to long-term investments due to reduced liquidity for these
securities. The company used $874 million in the quarter to repurchase
28.6 million shares of its common stock and paid dividends of $133 million.

Semiconductor segment
- Revenue was $3.19 billion. This was 2 percent higher than a year
ago primarily due to higher sales of analog products, especially high-performance
analog products. Revenue declined 8 percent from the prior quarter primarily
due to lower demand for digital signal processing products sold into
cell phone applications.
- Analog product revenue was $1.32 billion. This was up 6 percent
compared with a year ago due to stronger demand for high-performance
analog products. Revenue was down 4 percent from the prior quarter
primarily due to weaker demand for application-specific analog products
sold into hard-disk drive and cell phone applications. Revenue from
high-performance analog products increased 20 percent from a year
ago and was about even with the prior quarter.
- Digital signal processing product revenue was $1.12 billion.
This was a decrease of 3 percent from a year ago and a decrease
of 18 percent from the prior quarter. Both declines were due to
lower sales into cell phone applications.
- TI’s remaining semiconductor revenue was $754 million. This
was up 6 percent from a year ago and was up 2 percent from the prior
quarter.
- Gross profit was $1.73 billion, or 54.3 percent of revenue. This
was up $102 million, or 6 percent, from the year-ago quarter primarily
due to higher revenue from more-profitable analog products, and to a
lesser extent, from microcontrollers. Gross profit was down $165 million,
or 9 percent, from the prior quarter due to lower revenue.
- Operating profit for the first quarter was $927 million, or 29.0
percent of revenue. This was an increase of $96 million from the year-ago
quarter and a decrease of $190 million from the prior quarter.
- Orders in the first quarter were $3.17 billion. This was up 3 percent
from the year-ago quarter and down 7 percent from the prior quarter.
Semiconductor highlights
- TI introduced a family of analog front-end chips that enable superior
image quality and reduced power consumption in medical ultrasound diagnostic
equipment.
- TI delivered the industry’s first closed-loop, digital-input
Class-D audio amplifier that improves sound quality and lowers audio
subsystem costs in high-definition TVs and media docking stations.
- TI demonstrated a prototype cell phone based on the Android open
source platform and built using TI’s OMAP™ applications
processor and connectivity solutions.
Education Technology segment
- Revenue was $81 million. This was an increase of $5 million, or 7
percent, from the year-ago quarter due to higher sales of graphing calculators.
Revenue was even with the prior quarter.
- Gross profit was $49 million, or 60.5 percent of revenue. This was
an increase of $4 million from the year-ago quarter and was a decrease
of $1 million from the prior quarter.
- Operating profit was $18 million, or 21.9 percent of revenue. This
was an increase of $2 million from the year-ago quarter and a decrease
of $1 million from the prior quarter.
