Texas Instruments $TXN reported $6.06B in Q3 revenue, up 28% year over year and 11% sequentially, ahead of the $5.94B FactSet estimate reported by IBD.
Analog revenue grew 32% to $4.91B, while embedded processing increased 21% to $858M. CEO Haviv Ilan described “continued broad growth in industrial, automotive and data center.”
The live call adds a useful detail: management says data-center revenue grew approximately 95% year over year and 20% sequentially. Industrial grew more than 40% annually, while automotive grew in the mid-teens.
GAAP EPS was $2.62. Q4 guidance is $5.80–6.30B revenue and $2.45–2.79 EPS. The $6.05B revenue midpoint is above the $5.76B FactSet estimate reported by IBD, but roughly flat with Q3.
So this isn’t only an AI data-center story. TI is reporting growth across analog, embedded, industrial and automotive, with data centers growing particularly quickly.
