Texas Instruments reports Q4 beat but guides low

Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN) reported its Q4 results, with EPS of $2.02, ex-items, coming in better than the consensus estimate of $2.00.

Revenue declined 3% year-over-year to $4.67 billion, compared to the consensus estimate of $4.65 billion, reflecting weaker demand in all end markets with the exception of automotive.

"Free cash flow for the year was $5.9 billion and 30% of revenue. This reflects the quality of our product portfolio, as well as the efficiency of our manufacturing strategy, including the benefit of 300-mm production,” said Rich Templeton, the company’s chairman, president and CEO.

The company expects Q1/23 EPS to be in the range of $1.64-$1.90, compared to the consensus of $1.87, and revenue in the range of $4.17-4.53 billion, compared to the consensus of $4.41 billion.
