Conference call on TI website at 4:30 p.m. Central time today

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.

Embedded Processing: (includes Microcontrollers, Processors and Connectivity)

Revenue increased in all three product lines, led by Processors.
Operating profit increased primarily due to higher revenue and associated gross profit.

Other: (includes DLP^®products, calculators, custom ASIC products and royalties)

Revenue declined due to calculators, royalties and custom ASIC products, partially offset by an increase in DLP products.
Operating profit increased $10 million.

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.

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;
TI's ability to maintain and enforce a strong intellectual property portfolio and obtain needed licenses from third parties, expiration of license agreements between TI and its patent licensees, and market conditions reducing royalty payments to TI;
Compliance with or changes in the complex laws, rules and regulations to which TI is or may become subject, or actions of enforcement authorities, that restrict TI's ability to manufacture its products or operate its business, or subject us to fines, penalties, or other legal liability;
Product liability or warranty claims, claims based on epidemic or delivery failure, or other claims relating to TI products, manufacturing, services, design or communications, or recalls by TI customers for a product containing a TI part;
