DALLAS, July 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today reported second-quarter revenue of $3.27 billion, net income of $779 million and earnings per share of 76 cents.

Regarding the company's performance and returns to shareholders, Rich Templeton, TI's chairman, president and CEO, made the following comments:


    --  "Revenue and earnings per share for the quarter were solidly in the
        upper half of our expected range. Compared with a year ago, demand for
        our products continued to be strong in the automotive market, and grew
        in the industrial and communications equipment markets. Despite
        sequential growth, demand in the personal electronics market was down
        from a year ago.
    --  "In our core businesses, Embedded Processing revenue grew 9 percent and
        Analog revenue was about even with the same quarter a year ago.
        Operating margin increased in both businesses.
    --  "Gross margin of 61.2 percent reflected the quality of our product
        portfolio, as well as the efficiency of our manufacturing strategy,
        including the benefit of 300-millimeter Analog production.
    --  "Our cash flow from operations of $4.5 billion for the trailing 12
        months again underscored the strength of our business model. Free cash
        flow for the trailing 12 months was up 7 percent from a year ago to $3.9
        billion, and this represents 30.0 percent of revenue, up from 27.4
        percent a year ago.
    --  "We have returned $4.1 billion to shareholders in the past 12 months
        through stock repurchases and dividends.
    --  "Our strategy to return to shareholders 100 percent of free cash flow
        plus proceeds from exercises of equity compensation minus net debt
        retirement reflects our confidence in the long-term sustainability of
        our business model.
    --  "Our balance sheet remains strong with $2.5 billion of cash and
        short-term investments at the end of the quarter, about 80 percent of
        which was owned by the company's U.S. entities. Inventory ended the
        quarter at 133 days.
    --  "TI's third-quarter outlook is for revenue in the range of $3.34 billion
        to $3.62 billion, and earnings per share between 81 and 91 cents. For
        2016, TI's annual effective tax rate is expected to be about 30 percent,
        unchanged from previous guidance."

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Free cash flow is cash flow from operations less capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP financial information

This release includes references to free cash flow and ratios based on that measure. These are financial measures that were not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow was calculated by subtracting Capital expenditures from the most directly comparable GAAP measure, Cash flows from operating activities (also referred to as cash flow from operations).

The company believes that free cash flow and the associated ratios provide insight into its liquidity, its cash-generating capability and the amount of cash potentially available to return to investors, as well as insight into its financial performance. These non-GAAP measures are supplemental to the comparable GAAP measures.

Reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP-based measures is provided in the table below.

Amounts are in millions of dollars.

Notice regarding forward-looking statements

This release includes forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by phrases such as TI or its management "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "foresees," "forecasts," "estimates" or other words or phrases of similar import. Similarly, statements herein that describe TI's business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking statements. All such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements.

We urge you to carefully consider the following important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations of TI or its management:


    --  Market demand for semiconductors, particularly in TI's end markets;
    --  TI's ability to compete in products and prices in an intensely
        competitive industry;
    --  Losses or curtailments of purchases from key customers and the timing
        and amount of distributor and other customer inventory adjustments;
    --  Customer demand that differs from forecasts and the financial impact of
        inadequate or excess TI inventory that results from demand that differs
        from projections;
    --  TI's ability to maintain or improve profit margins, including its
        ability to utilize its manufacturing facilities at sufficient levels to
        cover its fixed operating costs, in an intensely competitive and
        cyclical industry;
    --  TI's ability to develop, manufacture and market innovative products in a
        rapidly changing technological environment;
    --  Economic, social and political conditions in the countries in which TI,
        its customers or its suppliers operate, including security risks, health
        conditions, possible disruptions in transportation, communications and
        information technology networks and fluctuations in foreign currency
        exchange rates;
    --  Natural events such as severe weather, geological events or health
        epidemics in the locations in which TI, its customers or its suppliers
        operate;
    --  Breaches of TI's information technology systems or those of its
        customers or suppliers;
    --  Availability and cost of raw materials, utilities, manufacturing
        equipment, third-party manufacturing services and manufacturing
        technology;
    --  Timely implementation of new manufacturing technologies and installation
        of manufacturing equipment, and the ability to obtain needed third-party
        foundry and assembly/test subcontract services;
