Effective January 1, 2003, the company adopted SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
Sensors & Controls Restructuring Action: In the second quarter of 2003, the company announced a plan to move certain production lines from Attleboro, Massachusetts to other TI sites in order to be geographically closer to customers and their markets and to reduce manufacturing costs. This restructuring action is expected to affect about 850 jobs through voluntary retirement and involuntary termination programs over the next two years, primarily at the Attleboro headquarters of the Sensors & Controls business. The total cost of this restructuring action is expected to be about $70 million. In the second quarter of 2003, the company recorded net pretax charges of $26 million, primarily for severance costs. Of the $26 million, $22 million is included in cost of revenue, and $4 million is included in selling, general and administrative expense. The total number of employees affected was 183, primarily at the Attleboro location.
Semiconductor Restructuring Action: Also in the second quarter of 2003, the company announced a restructuring action that is expected to affect about 860 jobs in Semiconductor manufacturing operations in the U.S. and international locations, as those operations continue to become more productive with fewer people. The total cost of this restructuring action is expected to be about $80 million. In the second quarter of 2003, the company recorded net pretax charges of $23 million, primarily for severance costs. Of the $23 million, $21 million is included in cost of revenue, and $2 million is included in selling, general and administrative expense. The total number of employees affected was 105 at U.S. and Germany locations.
Semiconductor Severance Action: In late 2002, the company announced a plan to involuntarily terminate about 500 employees, primarily in manufacturing operations, to align resources with market demand. In the third and fourth quarters of 2002, the company terminated 54 and 434 employees, respectively. Of the total 488 employees terminated, 450 were in U.S. locations while the remaining employees were in some of the companys international locations. The company recorded net pretax charges of $17 million in severance and benefit costs, of which $11 million was included in cost of revenue, $4 million in selling, general and administrative expense, and $2 million in research and development expense. As of June 30, 2003, all employees have been terminated and a balance of $2 million of severance and benefit costs remains to be paid. Payments are expected to be completed in 2003.
In the first quarter of 2001, the company began an aggressive worldwide cost-reduction plan to limit the impact of reduced revenue on profitability. The elements of the cost-reduction plan were a voluntary retirement program, involuntary terminations and the consolidation of certain manufacturing operations including the closing of three Semiconductor facilities in Santa Cruz, California; Merrimack, New Hampshire; and Tustin, California. Employees affected by this plan, primarily in manufacturing operations, totaled 5724.
Voluntary/Involuntary Programs in U.S.: In the first quarter of 2001, the company announced a voluntary retirement program and a
8
plan to involuntarily terminate employees in some of its U.S. locations. Of the total 5724 affected employees, 329 were in the companys location in Massachusetts and 2038 were in other U.S. locations, primarily in Texas. The company recorded net pretax charges of $153 million in severance and benefit costs, of which $107 million was included in cost of revenue, $48 million in selling, general, and administrative expense, $1 million in research and development expense, and $3 million in other income. At year-end 2002, this program was complete.
Semiconductor Site Closings in U.S.: In the first and second quarters of 2001, the company announced a plan to consolidate certain manufacturing operations resulting in the closing of three Semiconductor facilities. Of the total 5724 affected employees, 1159 were in the companys locations in California and New Hampshire. The company recorded net pretax charges of $88 million, of which $31 million was for severance and benefit costs, $46 million was for the acceleration of depreciation on the facilities assets over the remaining service life of the sites, and $11 million was for various other payments. Of the $31 million severance and benefit costs, $27 million was included in cost of revenue, and $4 million was included in selling, general, and administrative expense. The remaining $57 million of charges were included in cost of revenue.
In 2002, the company continued to record acceleration of depreciation of $15 million on the Semiconductor facility in New Hampshire. This acceleration of depreciation was included in cost of revenue. In addition, $5 million of additional severance and benefit costs was recorded related to these facility closings. The $5 million was included in cost of revenue. As of June 30, 2003, this program was complete.
Semiconductor International Restructuring Actions: In the first quarter of 2001, the company announced a voluntary retirement program and a plan to involuntarily terminate employees in some of its international locations. Of the total 5724 affected employees, 471 were in the companys locations in Europe, 1075 were in the companys locations in Asia and 652 were in the companys locations in Japan. The company recorded net pretax charges of $116 million of severance and benefit costs, of which $56 million was included in cost of revenue, $48 million was included in selling, general, and administrative expense, and $12 million was included in research and development expense. As of June 30, 2003, all employees have been terminated and a balance of $27 million of severance and benefit costs remains to be paid. Payments are expected to continue through 2007, of which $11 million is to be paid in 2003, $5 million in 2004, $5 million in 2005, and $3 million in both 2006 and 2007.
Prior Actions:
In years prior to 2001, actions were taken to terminate employees primarily in the companys European locations. As of June 30, 2003, a balance of $4 million in severance and benefit costs remains to be paid. Payments are expected to continue through 2004, of which $2 million is to be paid in 2003 and $2 million in 2004.

TI carries its public stock holdings at current market value on its balance sheet and records an impairment write-down against earnings if a stocks value declines below its cost basis and the decline is deemed other than temporary. In the fourth quarter of 2002, TI recorded an impairment write-down of its Micron common stock but fully reserved the tax benefit associated with the write-down due to uncertainty as to its ultimate realization. $162 million of TIs tax benefit associated with the prior year write-down was realized upon the July 2003 sale of the Micron common stock through the utilization of a capital loss carryback that was due to expire at the end of 2003. The combined effect of the gain and the tax benefit will be an increase of $230 million to the companys net income for the third quarter of 2003. TI continues to hold 32.3 million shares of Micron common stock.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this document.
For the second quarter of 2003, TIs revenue of $2339 million increased 7 percent sequentially due to seasonal growth in Educational & Productivity Solutions (E&PS) as well as growth in Semiconductor. Revenue grew 8 percent compared with the year-ago quarter due to growth in Semiconductor. TIs revenue growth in the second quarter demonstrates the benefit of diversity in its products and markets as sequential growth across almost all of its major product lines more than offset a decline in wireless. The company believes it continues to gain share in critical markets, including broadband communications, digital signal processing and analog.
Semiconductor revenue increased 3 percent sequentially as growth from a broad range of semiconductor products offset a sequential decline in wireless. Compared with the year-ago quarter, Semiconductor revenue increased 9 percent due to growth in demand across most product lines.
Revenue from the wireless market was down 5 percent sequentially and was up 16 percent from the year-ago quarter. Despite the sequential decline, wireless revenue was higher than the company expected in its June 10 financial update due to strong customer demand during the last few days of the quarter. Broadband revenue grew 44 percent on a sequential basis and 84 percent compared with the year-ago quarter. Analog revenue grew 5 percent sequentially and 4 percent compared with the year-ago quarter. DSP revenue was about even sequentially and grew 21 percent compared with the year-ago quarter.
Sensors & Controls revenue increased 3 percent sequentially and 4 percent compared with the year-ago quarter. In a seasonally strong quarter, E&PS revenue increased 104 percent sequentially and 4 percent compared with the year-ago period.
In the second quarter, the company incurred $49 million in restructuring charges. Of that total, $43 million is included in cost of revenue, and $6 million is in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense. TI expects an additional $100 million in restructuring charges by the end of 2004. These charges are related to job reductions and will be distributed over the quarters in which jobs are eliminated. When completed, the restructuring actions are expected to result in about $105 million of annual savings, of which $65 million will be in Semiconductor and $40 million will be in Sensors & Controls.
Cost of revenue in the second quarter was $1462 million or 62.5 percent of revenue, compared with $1330 million or 60.7 percent of revenue in the first quarter of 2003 and $1306 million or 60.4 percent of revenue in the year-ago quarter. Cost of revenue as a percent of revenue increased due to restructuring charges.
Gross profit of $877 million increased 2 percent sequentially and 3 percent compared with the year-ago quarter. Gross profit margin was 37.5 percent of revenue, a decrease of 1.8 percentage points sequentially and 2.1 percentage points compared with the year-ago quarter primarily due to restructuring charges.
11
Research and development (R&D) expense of $424 million was up 4 percent sequentially and 5 percent compared with the year-ago quarter due to increased product development activity within Semiconductor, especially for wireless products. R&D expense as a percent of revenue decreased 0.5 percentage points sequentially and decreased 0.6 percentage points compared with the year-ago quarter due to higher revenue.
SG&A expense of $328 million increased 9 percent sequentially and 10 percent compared with the year-ago period primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses, including lease termination and restructuring expenses. Seasonally higher E&PS marketing expenses also contributed to the sequential growth in SG&A. SG&A expense as a percent of revenue increased 0.3 percentage points sequentially and compared with the year-ago quarter.
Operating profit of $125 million, or 5.3 percent of revenue, decreased $28 million sequentially and $30 million compared with the year-ago quarter due to restructuring charges.
Other income (expense) net (OI&E) of $36 million includes interest income, investment gains (losses) and other items. OI&E increased sequentially and compared with the year-ago quarter due to lower net investment losses as well as a $10 million charge in the first quarter of 2003 associated with the redemption of convertible notes originally issued by Burr-Brown Corporation, which was acquired by TI. Interest expense of $10 million declined on a sequential basis and compared with the year-ago quarter due to the companys lower debt level.
Net income in the quarter was $121 million, or $0.07 per share. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 20 percent, lower than previously expected due to a revision in the companys expected tax rate for the year and the resulting cumulative catch-up tax benefit of $3 million.
TI orders of $2311 million and Semiconductor orders of $1901 million in the second quarter were about even sequentially and compared with the year-ago period. The Semiconductor book-to-bill ratio was 0.99 for the second quarter, compared with 1.03 in the prior quarter.
Total cash (cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments and long-term cash investments) of $4183 million increased by $38 million compared with the end of the prior quarter and increased by $709 million from the end of the year-ago quarter. Cash flow from operations increased to $378 million compared with $196 million in the prior quarter due to working capital, and decreased slightly compared with $387 million in the year-ago quarter.
Accounts receivable increased sequentially by $75 million due to seasonally higher sales of E&PS products. Accounts receivable were about even with the year-ago quarter. Days sales outstanding were 55 days at the end of the second quarter compared with 56 days in the prior quarter and 60 days in the year-ago quarter.
Inventory increased by $118 million sequentially primarily to support reduced product lead times. In addition, delays by certain wireless customers of product shipments from second quarter into third quarter and a normal seasonal increase in E&PS contributed to higher inventory. Compared with the year-ago quarter, inventory increased $180 million primarily due to the higher revenue level and to support reduced product leadtimes. Days of inventory increased to 62 days at the end of the second quarter compared with 60 days at the end of the prior quarter and 56 days at the end of the year-ago quarter.

Outlook
TI intends to provide a mid-quarter update to its financial outlook on September 9 by issuing a press release and holding a conference call. Both will be available on the companys web site.
For the third quarter of 2003, TI expects total revenue to be in the range of $2290 million to $2490 million. Inside that total, Semiconductor revenue is expected to be in the range of $1890 million to $2050 million; Sensors & Controls revenue is expected to be in the range of $230 million to $250 million; and E&PS revenue is expected to be in the range of $170 million to $190 million. Third quarter results will also include about $45 million in restructuring charges. TI expects the restructuring charges to drop down to one-third this level in the fourth quarter and then drop down to approximately $10 million per quarter in 2004.
TI expects earnings per share to be in the range of $0.19 to $0.23, including a $0.13 per share contribution from the companys previously announced sale of 24.7 million shares of Micron Technology Inc. (Micron), common stock.
For 2003, TI continues to expect: R&D to be about $1.7 billion; capital expenditures to be about $800 million; and depreciation to be about $1.4 billion. The effective tax rate for the year is expected to be about 22 percent, exclusive of the tax impact of the Micron stock transaction, compared with the companys previous estimate of 24 percent.
13
Semiconductor revenue in the second quarter was $1927 million, up 3 percent sequentially as strength across a broad range of product areas offset a decline in wireless. Revenue was up 9 percent from the year-ago quarter due to strength across most product areas.
Gross profit for the second quarter was $743 million compared with $748 million in the prior period. Second-quarter gross profit was up from $703 million in the year-ago quarter due to higher revenue.
Gross profit margin of 38.6 percent in the quarter declined 1.4 percentage points sequentially. Much of the second quarters revenue growth came from newer products that are still ramping to mature manufacturing yields, and from commodity products that are affected by cyclical price pressure. Gross profit margin declined 1.2 percentage points compared with the year-ago quarter primarily due to lower royalties. Royalties declined from the year-ago quarter due to a $30 million catch-up royalty in the second quarter of 2002 from a new semiconductor cross-license agreement.
Semiconductor operating profit for the second quarter declined to $126 million, or 6.5 percent of revenue, compared with $147 million in the prior quarter and $132 million in the year-ago quarter due to higher operating expenses.
Analog revenue increased 5 percent sequentially primarily due to higher shipments of display drivers, broadband products and high-performance analog products. Analog revenue increased 4 percent from the year-ago quarter primarily due to growth in high-performance analog standard product shipments as well as strength in storage, display drivers and broadband more than offsetting declines in analog wireless. In the first half of 2003, about 40 percent of total Semiconductor revenue came from Analog.
DSP revenue was about even sequentially as growth in shipments for the digital consumer and broadband markets offset lower wireless revenue in the second quarter of 2003. DSP revenue grew 21 percent from the year-ago quarter due to higher shipments into the wireless, broadband and digital consumer markets. In the first half of 2003, about 30 percent of total Semiconductor revenue came from DSP.
TIs remaining Semiconductor revenue increased 4 percent sequentially primarily due to higher shipments of standard logic products as well as growth in RISC microprocessors. RISC microprocessors grew in line with overall Semiconductor growth. Revenue from Digital Light Processing (DLP) products, microcontrollers and royalties declined on a sequential basis due to lower shipments. Compared with the year-ago quarter, revenue increased 4 percent due to higher shipments of DLP products, RISC microprocessors and standard logic, while revenue from royalties and microcontrollers declined.
TIs Semiconductor revenue in key markets was as follows:
14
continued to grow sequentially and was over 60 percent of total wireless revenue in the quarter. The average selling price of 2.5G digital baseband processors continued to be more than double that of 2G digital basebands. Compared with the year-ago period, TIs wireless revenue increased 16 percent primarily due to higher shipments of 2.5G products and OMAP applications processors. In the first half of 2003, about 30 percent of total Semiconductor revenue came from wireless.
Semiconductor orders were $1901 million, about even sequentially and compared with the year-ago quarter.
Sensors & Controls revenue was $261 million in the second quarter, up 3 percent sequentially and 4 percent compared with the year-ago quarter due about equally to higher shipments of sensor products and higher shipments of control products.
Gross profit was $98 million, or 37.6 percent of revenue, up from $90 million in the prior quarter and $84 million in the year-ago quarter. About $4 million of gross profit in the second quarter was due to a settlement of litigation. The gain in gross profit from the year-ago quarter was primarily due to manufacturing cost reductions.
Operating profit was $68 million, or 26.0 percent of revenue, up from $61 million in the prior quarter and $56 million in the year-ago quarter due to higher gross profit.
Educational & Productivity Solutions (E&PS)
E&PS revenue was $156 million in the second quarter, up 104 percent sequentially due to the start of retail stocking of calculators ahead of the back-to-school season. Compared with the year-ago period, revenue was up 4 percent due to higher sales to U.S. retailers.
Gross profit was $89 million, or 57.0 percent of revenue, up 135 percent sequentially due to higher revenue and up 12 percent from the year-ago quarter primarily due to a combination of higher revenue and product cost reductions.
Operating profit was $58 million, or 37.1 percent of revenue, up from $15 million in the previous quarter and $49 million in the year-ago quarter due to higher gross profit.
15
First Half of 2003
For the first six months of 2003, TI reported the following:
Semiconductor revenue in the first six months was $3794 million, up 16 percent from the year-ago period due to increased shipments across a broad range of products.
Gross profit for the first six months was $1490 million, or 39.3 percent of revenue, compared with $1225 million and 37.3 percent in the year-ago period. The increase from the year-ago period was primarily the result of higher Semiconductor factory utilization and lower depreciation.
Semiconductor operating profit for the first six months was $272 million, or 7.2 percent of revenue, up from $105 million and 3.2 percent in the year-ago period, primarily due to higher gross profit.
16
Semiconductor orders for the first six months were $3815 million, up 12 percent from $3415 million in the year-ago period due to increased demand across a broad range of products.
Sensors & Controls revenue was $514 million in the first six months of 2003, up 7 percent from $480 million in the year-ago period primarily due to higher shipments of automotive sensors.
Gross profit for the first six months was $188 million, or 36.6 percent of revenue, compared with $159 million and 33.0 percent in the year-ago period. The increase from the year-ago period was primarily due to manufacturing cost reductions.
Operating profit was $129 million, or 25.0 percent of revenue, up from $104 million and 21.7 percent in the first six months of 2002. Operating profit increased primarily due to higher gross profit.
E&PS revenue was $233 million for the first six months, about even with the year-ago period.
Gross profit for the first six months was $127 million, or 54.5 percent of revenue, up from $121 million and 51.4 percent in the year-ago period primarily due to product cost reductions.
Operating profit was $73 million, or 31.1 percent of revenue, up from $68 million and 28.9 percent in the prior period due to higher gross profit.
Financial Condition
TIs financial position is strong. In the first six months of 2003, total cash (cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments and long-term cash investments) increased by $41 million to $4183 million due to operating activities.
In the first six months of 2003, accounts receivable increased by $223 million due to seasonally higher revenue from E&PS products and higher Semiconductor revenue. Accounts receivable were about even with the year-ago period. Days sales outstanding were 55 days at the end of the first six months of 2003 compared with 60 days in the year-ago period.
In the first six months of 2003, inventory increased by $210 million due to support for reduced product leadtimes, a normal seasonal increase in E&PS inventory and delays by certain wireless customers of product shipments in the second quarter into the third quarter. Inventory increased $180 million compared with the year-ago period primarily due to the higher revenue level and support for reduced product leadtimes. Days of inventory increased to 62 days at the end of the first six months of 2003 compared with 56 days at the end of the year-ago period.
Capital expenditures were $294 million in the first six months of 2003, down from $297 million in the first six months of 2002.
Depreciation was $702 million in the first six months of 2003, down from $787 million in the first six months of 2002.
17
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At the end of the first six months of 2003, the debt-to-total-capital ratio was 0.07, down from 0.10 at the end of 2002. This ratio reflects the companys view that it is prudent to maintain a low debt level considering the volatile nature of the semiconductor industry.
In the first six months of 2003, cash flow from operations decreased to $574 million compared with $683 million in the first six months of 2002 due to working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities was $261 million for the first six months of 2003 versus the use of $428 million for the same period a year ago primarily due to sales and maturities of investments net of purchases. In order to take advantage of higher yields, as of June 30, 2003, the company had $1089 million in long-term cash investments (i.e., fixed-income, investment-grade securities with maturities between thirteen and twenty-four months).
For the first six months of 2003, net cash used in financing activities totaled $249 million versus $203 million in the year-ago period. In the first six months of 2003, the company used $109 million of cash to repurchase approximately 6 million shares of its common stock, compared with $210 million used to repurchase approximately 7 million shares of its common stock in the year-ago period. These repurchases are intended to neutralize the potential dilutive effect of shares expected to be issued upon exercise of stock options under the companys long-term incentive and employee stock purchase plans. Also, the company paid a total of $74 million of common stock dividends in each period.
The companys primary source of liquidity is $1019 million of cash and cash equivalents, $2075 million of short-term investments, and $1089 million of long-term cash investments, totaling $4183 million. Another source of liquidity is authorized borrowings of $500 million for commercial paper, backed by a 364-day revolving credit facility, which is currently not utilized. The company maintains the ability to issue up to $1.0 billion in debt under a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shelf registration. As of June 30, 2003, the company also had equity investments of $924 million, including 57 million shares ($669 million) of liquid, publicly traded, Micron common stock. The company believes it has the necessary financial resources to fund its working capital needs, capital expenditures, dividend payments and other business requirements for at least the next 12 months.
In July 2003, the company sold 24.7 million shares of Micron common stock. TI will recognize a pre-tax gain in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of $106 million from this sale, which will be recorded in other income (expense) net in the third quarter.
TI carries its public stock holdings at current market value on its balance sheet and records an impairment write-down against earnings if a stocks value declines below its cost basis and the decline is deemed other than temporary. In the fourth quarter of 2002, TI recorded an impairment write-down of its Micron common stock but fully reserved the tax benefit associated with the write-down due to uncertainty as to its ultimate realization.
18
$162 million of TIs tax benefit associated with the prior year write-down was realized upon the July 2003 sale of the Micron common stock through the utilization of a capital loss carryback that was due to expire at the end of 2003. The combined effect of the gain and the tax benefit will be an increase of $230 million to the companys net income for the third quarter of 2003. TI continues to hold 32.3 million shares of Micron common stock.
