Texas Instruments: The Time To Buy Is Now (Rating Upgrade)

Summary:

  • Texas Instruments Incorporated’s Q3 results clearly show the company isn’t out of the woods anytime soon and will continue to face weak demand for at least another couple of quarters.
  • Capex almost doubled YoY and on a TTM basis was up 57% YoY, continuing the uptrend in Capex growth, even as revenue falls.
  • Fundamentally, the business remains in excellent shape, and management is committed to its long-term growth targets.
  • Despite short-term weakness, Texas Instruments is expected to return to single-digit growth by the end of the first half of FY24, making it a good long-term investment.
  • I am comfortable once again increasing my position in Texas Instruments stock from these incredibly favorable levels and considering the limited downside.
