(NXPI) Q2 2026 — NXP Semiconductors (NXPI), the Eindhoven-based chipmaker that derives ~55% of revenue from automotive, reported Q2 2026 (quarter ended June 28, 2026) after the close on July 28: record revenue of $3.496B, up 19.5% YoY and 9.9% sequentially, with non-GAAP EPS of $3.61 beating the $3.50 consensus and GAAP EPS of $3.02. Non-GAAP gross margin expanded 150bps YoY to 58.0% and non-GAAP operating margin rose 310bps to 35.1%. All four end markets grew: Automotive $1,938M (+12.1%, ~+17% ex the MEMS sensor business sold to STMicroelectronics in February), Industrial & IoT $755M (+38.3%), Comms Infrastructure & Other $452M (+41.3%, including a data-center franchise scaling from ~$200M in 2025 to a guided $500M+ in 2026), and Mobile $351M (+6.0%). Q3 guidance was strong: revenue $3.75B at the midpoint (+18% YoY), non-GAAP gross margin 58.5%, operating margin 36.9%, and EPS $4.11. The stock still fell, closing July 29 at $242.51, ~27% below its May 26 high of $332.67. The under-covered number is in the 10-Q: revenue to distributors rose 26.7% YoY (+24.5% YTD) while revenue to direct customers rose just 9.4% (+4.6% YTD) — sell-in to the channel running roughly 5x sell-through to direct buyers, with channel inventory at 11 weeks vs 9 a year ago, even as management said it has not seen restocking. Reported free cash flow of $791M (22.6% of revenue) excludes $186M of foundry joint-venture funding (VSMC/ESMC), which is capacity spending by any economic definition — true FCF is closer to ~$600M, ~17% of revenue. The $104M buyback merely offset $105M of stock-based compensation (diluted shares 254.0M vs 253.8M a year ago). Our normalized owner-earnings DCF on mid-cycle revenue of $14.5B at a 33.5% operating margin, with SBC expensed, yields…","meta_description":"NXP Semiconductors N.V.
