Upturn Advisory & Investor View for TXN

11/06/2026: TXN (3-star) is a WEAK-BUY. BUY for 27 days. Simulated Profits (-0.92%). Updated daily EoD!

Texas Instruments is a mature, US-based semiconductor company known for its dominant position in analog and embedded processing chips. The firm benefits from long-term trends like automotive electrification and industrial automation, which require its specialized power and control components. A key strength is its focus on internal manufacturing, which supports strong margins and supply chain control. However, the business is cyclically exposed to industrial and automotive demand, and significant capital expenditure requirements can weigh on short-term cash flow. The stock is best suited for income-focused and long-term value investors who appreciate dividend reliability and a disciplined, moat-oriented business strategy.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
TXN receives a 4-star rating, supported by solid unit economics, solid company fundamentals, and strong analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
TXN has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with solid financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, moderate earnings growth (+4.2%) and solid cash generation (FCF margin 14.7%) are partially offset by very low insider ownership of 0.28%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
TXN's financial health is supported by strong cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation of $2.6B (14.7% of revenue). Operating efficiency is solid (4 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Free-cash-flow growth is TXN's strongest growth driver at +73.8% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, revenue growth (+13.0%, solid) is also solid, while earnings growth (+4.2%, moderate) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 92.0% and approximately 99.7% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.28%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

BlackRock Inc 9.03%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 6.50%
State Street Corp 4.86%
Amvescap Plc. 4.13%
JPMorgan Chase & Co 3.55%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
TXN generates approximately $570 of gross profit, $341 of operating income, and $147 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong margins and soft cash conversion support the rating, although capital efficiency remains solid.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 12.42%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
TXN has a high-quality, large-cap, liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while soft valuation.
