DALLAS, (February 28, 2005) -- For the second straight year, Texas Instruments
(TI) has been named the most admired company in the semiconductor industry
according to Fortune’s annual survey. To compile the list,
researchers asked the top managers at 582 of the largest companies across
65 industry sectors to judge their competition. In all, 10,000 executives,
directors, and securities analysts rated the companies on eight attributes:
innovation, social responsibility, quality management, long-term investment
and quality of product/services. TI earned the number one or two position
in each category. TI was also ranked number seven for quality of products
and services across all industries.
"This is a very nice honor, especially since the judges are our competitors,"
said Steve Leven, senior vice president and Human Resources manager. "Obviously
the focus we put on our customers, our products and our employees is helping
us lead the way in the industry."
The Most Admired Companies listing, in the March 7 edition of Fortune,
will be available on newsstands February 28. The listing is available
