TI reports third quarter 2019 financial results and shareholder returns
Conference call on TI website at 3:30 p.m. Central time today

DALLAS (October 22, 2019) – Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (Nasdaq: TXN) today reported third quarter revenue of $3.77 billion, net income of $1.43 billion and earnings per share of $1.49. Earnings per share include a 9-cent benefit for items that were not in the company’s original guidance.
Regarding the company’s performance and returns to shareholders, Rich Templeton, TI’s chairman, president and CEO, made the following comments:
“Revenue decreased 11% from the same quarter a year ago, as most markets weakened further.
“In our core businesses, Analog revenue declined 8% and Embedded Processing declined 19% from the same quarter a year ago.
“Our cash flow from operations of $7.0 billion for the trailing 12 months again underscored the strength of our business model. Free cash flow for the trailing 12 months was $6.0 billion and 41% of revenue. This reflects the quality of our product portfolio, as well as the efficiency of our manufacturing strategy, including the benefit of 300-millimeter Analog production.
“We have returned $7.4 billion to owners in the past 12 months through stock repurchases and dividends. Over the last 12 months, our dividends represented 48% of free cash flow, underscoring their sustainability. In September, we announced we would increase our dividend by 17%. Together, our stock repurchases and dividends reflect our continued commitment to return all free cash flow to our owners.
“TI’s fourth quarter outlook is for revenue in the range of $3.07 billion to $3.33 billion, and earnings per share between $0.91 and $1.09, which includes an estimated $5 million discrete tax benefit. We continue to expect our annual operating tax rate to be about 16% in 2019.”
Free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, is cash flow from operations less capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP financial information
This release includes references to free cash flow and ratios based on that measure. These are financial measures that were not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow was calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from the most directly comparable GAAP measure, cash flows from operating activities (also referred to as cash flow from operations).
We believe that free cash flow and the associated ratios provide insight into our liquidity, our cash-generating capability and the amount of cash potentially available to return to shareholders, as well as insight into our financial performance. These non-GAAP measures are supplemental to the comparable GAAP measures.
Reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the table below.
Amounts are in millions of dollars.
For 12 Months Ended
September 30,
 20192018Change
Cash flow from operations (GAAP)$7,040  $6,973  %
Capital expenditures(1,007) (1,039) 
Free cash flow (non-GAAP)$6,033  $5,934  %
Revenue$14,750  $15,817   
Cash flow from operations as a percent of revenue (GAAP)47.7 %44.1 % 
Free cash flow as a percent of revenue (non-GAAP)40.9 %37.5 % 
This release also includes references to an annual operating tax rate, a non-GAAP term we use to describe the estimated annual effective tax rate, a GAAP measure that by definition does not include discrete tax items. We believe the term annual operating tax rate helps differentiate from the effective tax rate, which includes discrete tax items.

Market demand for semiconductors, particularly in our end markets;
Our ability to compete in products and prices in an intensely competitive industry;
Customer demand that differs from forecasts and the financial impact of inadequate or excess company inventory that results from demand that differs from projections;
Economic, social and political conditions in the countries in which we, our customers or our suppliers operate, including security risks; global trade policies; political and social instability; health conditions; possible disruptions in transportation, communications and information technology networks; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
Evolving cybersecurity threats to our information technology systems or those of our customers or suppliers;
Natural events such as severe weather, geological events or health epidemics in the locations in which we, our customers or our suppliers operate;

Product liability or warranty claims, claims based on epidemic or delivery failure, or other claims relating to our products, manufacturing, services, design or communications, or recalls by our customers for a product containing one of our parts;
Compliance with or changes in the complex laws, rules and regulations to which we are or may become subject, or actions of enforcement authorities, that restrict our ability to manufacture or ship our products or operate our business, or subject us to fines, penalties or other legal liability;
Changes in tax law and accounting standards that can impact the tax rate applicable to us, the jurisdictions in which profits are determined to be earned and taxed, adverse resolution of tax audits, increases in tariff rates, and the ability to realize deferred tax assets;
A loss suffered by one of our customers or distributors with respect to TI-consigned inventory;
Financial difficulties of our distributors or their promotion of competing product lines to our detriment, or the unexpected loss of significant distributors;
Losses or curtailments of purchases from key customers or the timing and amount of distributor and other customer inventory adjustments;
Our ability to maintain or improve profit margins, including our ability to utilize our manufacturing facilities at sufficient levels to cover our fixed operating costs, in an intensely competitive and cyclical industry and despite changes in the regulatory environment;
Our ability to maintain and enforce a strong intellectual property portfolio and maintain freedom of operation in all jurisdictions where we conduct business; or our exposure to infringement claims;
Instability in the global credit and financial markets that affects our ability to fund our daily operations, invest in the business, make strategic acquisitions, or make principal and interest payments on our debt;
Increases in health care and pension benefit costs;
Our ability to recruit and retain skilled engineering, management and technical personnel, and effectively manage key employee succession;
Our ability to successfully integrate and realize opportunities for growth from acquisitions, or our ability to realize our expectations regarding the amount and timing of restructuring charges and associated cost savings; and
Impairments of our non-financial assets.
