Nomura Securities maintains a 'Neutral' on Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN) price target of $30.00 (from $32.00).
Analyst, Romit Shah, said, "Revenue of $3.34bn (+9%) was slightly below our estimate of $3.35bn. TI guided Q3 sales flat (down 4% to up 4%), below normal seasonality of 6% growth. This outlook is worse than Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) (+6% vs +9% seasonal) and Xilinx (Nasdaq: XLNX) core sales (-2% vs -1% seasonal). R&D and SG&A came in at $936mn (-4%), well below our estimate of $1,006bn. As such, EBIT margin increased 520 bps to 21.4% in Q2. We lower EPS from $0.50 to $0.45 in Q3, from $1.67 to $1.60 in C12, and from $2.10 to $1.95 in C13."
