Texas InstrumentsTXN late Wednesday beat Wall Street's targets for the second quarter and guided higher than views for the current period. But TXN stock fell in extended trading.
The Dallas-based chipmaker earned $2.14 a share on sales of $5.46 billion in the June quarter. Analysts surveyed by FactSet had expected earnings of $1.94 a share on sales of $5.26 billion in Q2. On a year-over-year basis, Texas Instruments earnings rose 52% while sales increased 23%.
TI's earnings per share included a 5-cent benefit that was not in the company's original guidance.
"Revenue increased 13% sequentially and 23% from the same quarter a year ago with broad growth led by industrial, data center and automotive," TI Chief Executive Haviv Ilan said in a news release.
For the current quarter, Texas Instruments expects to earn $2.40 a share on sales of $5.9 billion. That's based on the midpoint of its guidance. Analysts had been modeling TI earnings of $2.18 a share on sales of $5.63 billion for the third quarter. In the same quarter last year, Texas Instruments earned $1.48 a share on sales of $4.74 billion.
