DALLAS (July 20, 2004) Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today reported second-quarter 2004 revenue of $3241 million, an increase of 10 percent sequentially and 39 percent from the year-ago quarter primarily due to strength in TIs Semiconductor business. Earnings per share (EPS) were $0.25.
Semiconductor revenue increased 8 percent sequentially and 44 percent from the year-ago quarter primarily due to strong demand for digital signal processors (DSPs) and analog products used in a broad range of electronic equipment. Record revenue was achieved in several Semiconductor operations, including wireless, which grew 15 percent sequentially; high-performance analog, which grew 13 percent sequentially; and Digital Light ProcessingTM (DLP), which grew 10 percent sequentially.
Revenue growth was excellent, said Rich Templeton, TI president and chief executive officer. We believe our Semiconductor business has gained market share in both the first and second quarters of 2004, building on TIs annual market share gains achieved in 2002 and 2003.
This reflects the strength weve built in our advanced technology and the relationships were developing with customers.
In particular, this was an important quarter for our wireless operations, with growth across a broad base of customers and a broad mix of our products, Templeton said. Digital baseband modems for W-CDMA 3G cell phones have emerged as a significant growth contributor, accounting for about one-fourth of sequential wireless revenue growth in the second quarter. In addition, the latest research from market analyst IDC shows that our OMAPTM processors garnered two-thirds of the rapidly growing market for wireless application processors in 2003. The companys strength in modems and application processors has given us the early lead in the W-CDMA cell phone market. Underscoring the importance of this technology combination, TI and 3G service leader NTT DoCoMo announced plans to integrate next-generation OMAP 2 application processors with digital baseband modems to support the UMTS standard, which is based on W-CDMA and is expected to be the prevalent worldwide standard for 3G wireless phones, Templeton said.
2004 is on course to be a very strong year. TIs Semiconductor revenue in the second quarter was higher than it has ever been, and the companys operating profit is approaching an all-time record. With stable depreciation and a lower expected profit-sharing accrual next year, TI is well positioned to continue to deliver higher levels of profitability as revenue expands, Templeton said.

Details of Financial Results
Revenue
In the second quarter, TI revenue of $3241 million increased $305 million sequentially and $902 million from the year-ago quarter.
Gross Profit
Gross profit of $1481 million increased 12 percent sequentially and 69 percent from the year-ago quarter. Gross profit margin was 45.7 percent of revenue, up 0.7 percentage points sequentially and 8.2 percentage points from the year-ago quarter. Gross profit and gross profit margin benefited primarily from higher revenue.
Operating Expenses
Research and development (R&D) expense was $514 million, or 15.8 percent of revenue, compared with $494 million, or 16.8 percent of revenue in the prior quarter. R&D expense was $424 million, or 18.1 percent of revenue, in the year-ago quarter. The higher R&D expense is a result of increased product development activity in Semiconductor, especially for wireless products, as well as a higher profit-sharing accrual.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $375 million, or 11.6 percent of revenue, compared with $354 million, or 12.0 percent of revenue, in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to a higher profit-sharing accrual as well as seasonally higher marketing expense in the companys Educational & Productivity Solutions (E&PS) business. In the year-ago quarter, SG&A expense was $328 million, or 14.0 percent of revenue, with the increase primarily due to the profit-sharing accrual.
3
Operating Profit
Operating profit of $592 million, or 18.3 percent of revenue, increased $118 million sequentially and $467 million compared with the year-ago quarter primarily due to higher gross profit that more than offset higher operating expenses.
Second-quarter results include a higher profit-sharing accrual, which contains a cumulative catch-up, compared with the first quarter, reflecting an upward adjustment in the companys expectations for its 2004 performance. There was no profit-sharing accrual in the year-ago quarter. Profit sharing is allocated across cost of revenue, SG&A and R&D. Profit sharing is expected to decline in 2005 compared with 2004 and will reflect a new TI employee profit-sharing plan.
Other Income (Expense) Net (OI&E) and Interest Expense
OI&E of $38 million decreased $12 million from the prior quarter and increased $2 million compared with the year-ago quarter.
Interest expense of $8 million was even sequentially and declined $2 million from the year-ago quarter.
Net Income
Net income was $441 million, or $0.25 per share, an increase of $74 million sequentially and $320 million from the year-ago quarter due to higher operating profit.
Orders
TI orders of $3253 million increased 1 percent sequentially. Compared with the year-ago quarter, orders increased 41 percent due to strength in Semiconductor. Semiconductor orders were $2762 million, down 2 percent sequentially. Compared with the year-ago quarter, Semiconductor orders increased 45 percent due to broad-based demand for the companys products.
4
Cash
At the end of the second quarter, total cash (cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments and long-term cash investments) was $5534 million.
Cash flow from operations was $506 million, up $113 million sequentially and $128 million compared with the year-ago quarter.
Capital Expenditures and Depreciation
Capital expenditures of $356 million decreased $45 million sequentially and increased $194 million from the year-ago quarter. TIs capital expenditures in the second quarter were used primarily to increase capacity for assembly and test operations, and for 90-nanometer wafer fabrication.
Depreciation of $363 million increased $15 million sequentially and $7 million from the year-ago quarter.
Accounts Receivable and Inventory
Accounts receivable of $1930 million increased $252 million sequentially due to higher revenue and seasonally higher E&PS receivables. Accounts receivable increased $490 million from the end of the year-ago quarter due to higher revenue. Days sales outstanding were 54 at the end of the second quarter, compared with 51 at the end of the prior quarter and 55 at the end of the year-ago quarter.
Inventory of $1285 million at the end of the second quarter increased $137 million sequentially and $285 million from the year-ago quarter as the company continued to build inventory to targeted levels, especially in standard products, to support customer plans for the
5
second half of the year and to ensure the companys ability to respond to upside potential. Days of inventory at the end of the second quarter were 66, compared with 64 days at the end of the prior quarter and 62 days at the end of the year-ago quarter.
Debt
At the end of the second quarter, TIs debt-to-total-capital ratio was 0.06, unchanged from the end of the prior quarter. In the third quarter, TIs $400 million 7 percent notes will mature and will be paid using available cash.
Outlook
TI intends to provide a mid-quarter update to its financial outlook on September 8 by issuing a press release and holding a conference call. Both will be available on the companys web site.
For the third quarter of 2004, TI expects revenue to be in the following ranges:
| Total TI, $3200 million to $3440 million; |
| Semiconductor, $2780 million to $2980 million; |
| Sensors & Controls, $255 million to $275 million; and |
| E&PS, $170 million to $190 million. |
TI expects earnings per share to be in the range of $0.26 to $0.29.
For 2004, TI continues to expect: R&D to be about $2.1 billion; capital expenditures to be about $1.3 billion; and depreciation to be about $1.5 billion.
The effective tax rate for the year is expected to be about 29 percent, unchanged from the prior estimate.

| In the second quarter, revenue of $2784 million increased 8 percent sequentially and 44 percent from the year-ago quarter due to strong demand across a broad range of Semiconductor products. In particular, the company generated strong growth from DSPs and analog products used in cell phones and wireless infrastructure, from high-performance analog products and from DLP products. |
| Gross profit was $1285 million, or 46.2 percent of revenue, an increase of $97 million from the prior quarter and $542 million from the year-ago quarter due to higher revenue. |
| Operating profit was $526 million, or 18.9 percent of revenue, up $61 million sequentially and $400 million from the year-ago quarter due to higher gross profit that more than offset higher operating expenses. |
| Analog revenue increased 7 percent sequentially primarily due to higher demand for high-performance analog products, and increased 44 percent from the year-ago quarter primarily due to higher demand for high-performance and wireless analog products. Revenue from TIs high-performance analog products increased 13 percent sequentially and 64 percent from the year-ago quarter due to higher demand. In the first half of 2004, approximately 40 percent of TIs Semiconductor revenue came from analog. |
| DSP revenue increased 13 percent sequentially and 53 percent from the year-ago quarter primarily due to demand in the wireless market. In the first half of 2004, approximately 35 percent of TIs Semiconductor revenue came from DSP. |

| TIs remaining Semiconductor revenue increased 4 percent sequentially and 34 percent compared with the year-ago quarter due to higher demand across a broad range of products. |
| Results for TI Semiconductor products sold into key end equipments were as follows: |
| Wireless revenue increased 15 percent sequentially and 64 percent from the year-ago quarter due to broad-based demand across a range of customers for the companys DSP-based digital baseband products, analog power management chips and OMAP application processors. In the first half of 2004, about 35 percent of TIs Semiconductor revenue came from wireless. |
| Broadband communications revenue, which includes DSL and cable modems, voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) and wireless LAN (WLAN), was about even sequentially as higher demand for the companys VoIP products offset a decline in demand for WLAN products. Compared with the year-ago quarter, broadband revenue increased 44 percent due to higher demand across all product areas, especially VoIP and DSL. In the first half of 2004, approximately 5 percent of TIs Semiconductor revenue came from broadband. |
