The chipmaker's stock has dropped by 5.42% in the past month, falling short of the Computer and Technology sector's loss of 0.02% and the S&P 500's loss of 1.37%.
Investors will be eagerly watching for the performance of Texas Instruments in its upcoming earnings disclosure. The company is predicted to post an EPS of $2.39, indicating a 61.49% growth compared to the equivalent quarter last year. In the meantime, our current consensus estimate forecasts the revenue to be $5.91 billion, indicating a 24.69% growth compared to the corresponding quarter of the prior year.
TXN's full-year Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for earnings of $8.45 per share and revenue of $21.7 billion. These results would represent year-over-year changes of +55.05% and +22.73%, respectively.
Additionally, investors should keep an eye on any recent revisions to analyst forecasts for Texas Instruments. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the business outlook.
Our research suggests that these changes in estimates have a direct relationship with upcoming stock price performance. Investors can capitalize on this by using the Zacks Rank. This model considers these estimate changes and provides a simple, actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system, which ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.
