Haviv Ilan, chairman, president and chief executive officer

Thank you, Mike. It is great to be with you all this morning.

Earlier today we announced an agreement for Texas Instruments to acquire Silicon Labs, a leader in embedded wireless connectivity solutions with a broad portfolio, deep engineering expertise and long-standing customer relationships. This transaction represents an important milestone for our company and accelerates the embedded processing strategy we've been executing over the last several years.

As many of you know, Silicon Labs has a strong portfolio in mixed signal solutions and low power wireless connectivity and has demonstrated double-digit growth in the last decade. By combining Silicon Labs' wireless connectivity IP and engineering expertise with TI's internally-owned technology and manufacturing and reach of market channels, TI will enhance its global leadership in embedded wireless connectivity solutions.

Strategically and financially compelling transaction (Slide 2)

I'll now take a moment to share why this transaction with Silicon Labs is strategically and financially compelling, and why now is the right time.

To begin, this transaction enhances our global leadership in embedded wireless connectivity solutions and expands TI's portfolio with 1,200 additional products that support a variety of wireless connectivity standards. Wireless connectivity is a fast-growing space with more devices getting connected every day. Silicon Labs has a large and diverse customer base and has delivered about 15% revenue CAGR since 2014.

This transaction also utilizes TI's industry-leading, dependable, low-cost manufacturing capacity to provide customers with greater assurance of supply.

We've also found a strong cultural fit. Our teams share the same high-performing culture, and I respect Silicon Labs' technical expertise, winning spirit and strong results. Together, our teams will deliver cutting-edge products and technologies to meet our customers' needs.

Finally, from a financial perspective, we expect the transaction to generate compelling annual manufacturing and operational synergies of more than $450 million within three years after close. We expect the transaction to be accretive to earnings per share, excluding transaction-related costs, in the first full year post-close.

Enhancing global leadership in embedded wireless connectivity solutions (Slide 3)

TI has a great business model, built around four sustainable competitive advantages. As a reminder, TI's competitive advantages are a strong foundation of manufacturing and technology, a broad portfolio of analog and embedded processing products, the reach of our market channels, and diversity and longevity of our products, markets and customer positions. The acquisition of Silicon Labs will further strengthen all of TI's competitive advantages and drive free cash flow per share growth over the long term.

In addition, Silicon Labs' comprehensive platform, including hardware, software, tools and services, has earned them a strong reputation in the industry and a loyal customer base. Silicon Labs' strong engineering culture is expected to further advance TI's technology leadership.

By combining Silicon Labs' comprehensive portfolio with TI's scale and competitive advantages, we will be better positioned to serve more customers and accelerate growth.

I would now like to turn the call over to Matt, who will share more about why this is an exciting opportunity.

Matt Johnson, president and chief executive officer, Silicon Labs

Utilizing Silicon Labs' leading innovation, technology and IP to better serve customers (Slide 4)

Thanks, Haviv.

It's great to be here today and have the opportunity to address you all. I share Haviv's enthusiasm for this transaction and truly believe TI is the ideal partner to accelerate Silicon Labs' growth. It is an honor to be combining Silicon Labs with a partner with such a storied place in our industry, and I would like to thank the entire Silicon Labs team for the sustained execution and dedication that made today's announcement possible.

Turning to our company for a moment, you've heard Haviv say that Silicon Labs has an intense commitment to engineering and innovation, and you can see that in the composition of our team. Approximately 70% of our employees are engineers, allocated across software and hardware disciplines.

From my conversations with TI, it's clear that they deeply value the expertise that Silicon Labs brings to the table and that they are highly focused on identifying opportunities to scale our operations and optimize our manufacturing processes to better serve new and existing customers.

~85% of Silicon Labs' revenue in industrial end market (Slide 5)

Our focus on engineering innovative products has earned us a strong reputation in the industry, and we have built a loyal customer base, especially across industrial applications. Not only are we proud of the growth we have achieved over more than a decade, we've also worked hard to build a high-quality revenue base across thousands of customers.

We have established diverse and long-lived positions across the industrial market in a broad set of end equipments.

There are significant growth opportunities available, and these will be further enhanced with TI's dependable and low-cost manufacturing capabilities and extensive reach of channels.

Thank you for your time today, and with that said, I would like to turn the call back over to Haviv.

Haviv Ilan, chairman, president and chief executive officer

Scaled opportunity growing at double digits (Slide 6)

Thanks, Matt.

As I said before, Silicon Labs has delivered about 15% revenue CAGR over the past decade. We see additional opportunity for growth as part of TI, supported by increased customer access, manufacturing capacity and cross-sell opportunities.

Silicon Labs' extensive wireless connectivity portfolio is an important part of the increasingly connected world, where we see secular content growth in areas like industrial automation, medical and energy infrastructure, just to name a few. With our direct customer relationships, sales force, website and e-commerce capabilities, we believe we can further accelerate growth.

Manufacturing leadership (Slide 7)

Manufacturing is a key differentiator for TI and is a core value driver for this transaction. Our manufacturing footprint includes low-cost, 300mm wafer fabs as well as internal assembly and test capabilities. This footprint will allow us to transfer Silicon Labs' manufacturing from external foundries and outside assembly and test into TI facilities, providing their customers with dependable and affordable supply at scale.

Specifically, TI's defined process technologies are optimized for Silicon Labs' wireless connectivity portfolio, including our latest 28nm process node.

Achieving meaningful manufacturing and operational synergies (Slide 8)

We expect the transaction to deliver meaningful synergies with efficiencies across TI's wafer fabs with optimized process technologies, low-cost assembly and test and our direct market channels. The transaction is expected to drive more than $450 million of annual manufacturing and operational synergies within three years post-close. We expect this transaction to be accretive to TI's earnings per share, excluding transaction-related costs in the first full year post-close.

I'll now turn it over to Rafael to recap the details of the transaction.

Transaction overview (Slide 9)

Thanks, Haviv. Let me now provide a brief summary of the transaction details.

Silicon Labs shareholders will receive $231 per share in cash. We plan to fund the transaction with cash on hand and by raising additional debt. And importantly, we remain committed to our capital return strategy to return 100% of free cash flow to shareholders over time via dividends and share repurchases.

We expect to close in the first half of 2027. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals, Silicon Labs shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions.
