Why now
Semiconductors · market cap $256.1b. 16% off the 52-week high of $334.03. Revenue growing +17%, comfortably above the S&P median. 31 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $324.45 (implying +16% upside).
Moat
Net margin 31% is exceptional — pricing-power territory rare outside premium software, branded staples, and specialty pharma. ROE 34% — top-decile capital efficiency. Either pricing leverage, low capital intensity, or aggressive buybacks; the durability story depends on which. $256.1b market cap places it among the largest companies in the sector — distribution, R&D, and customer-acquisition costs amortize across a base peers can't replicate.
Risk
Trailing P/E 43x sits well above the S&P median (~20x) — multiple compression is a real risk if revenue growth decelerates. P/S 13.2x embeds aggressive forward growth — disappointing top-line guidance would compress the multiple hard. Export-control overhang — US/China export restrictions can erase end-market access overnight; the rules have tightened three times since 2022 and there's no reason to expect that to stop.
Horizon
1-3 yr $324.45 (31-analyst consensus) — fundamentals + valuation re-rating. 5 yr $475.03 at ~11% CAGR — compounding case rests on the competitive position widening. 10 yr $704.67 if current growth sustains into durable earnings power.

The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.

Its strongest graded signals are FCF (B+), Rev (B+) and PEG (B+). On valuation, TXN sits about 168% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 41% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade.

Bull Rankings scores TXN 60.5 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by FCF (B+), Rev (B+) and PEG (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Texas Instruments Incorporated's fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.

Why does TXN score 60.5 on Bull Rankings?

The quality-growth score blends three pillars — quality (returns on capital, margins, leverage, earnings quality), growth (revenue and earnings expansion), and value (valuation versus sector peers). TXN earns its highest marks on FCF (B+), Rev (B+) and PEG (B+). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is TXN overvalued or undervalued?

Based on $280.44, TXN sits about 168% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 41% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 42.6x× P/E (graded B). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.

What are the main risks of investing in TXN?

Trailing P/E 43x sits well above the S&P median (~20x) — multiple compression is a real risk if revenue growth decelerates. P/S 13.2x embeds aggressive forward growth — disappointing top-line guidance would compress the multiple hard. Export-control overhang — US/China export restrictions can erase end-market access overnight; the rules have tightened three times since 2022 and there's no reason to expect that to stop.
