TI 425: 425
What happened
On February 4, 2026, Texas Instruments (TI) announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Silicon Labs. Internal TI communications state that Silicon Labs has achieved ~15% compound annual revenue growth since 2014, and that the acquisition adds 1,200 Silicon Labs products supporting a variety of wireless connectivity standards and protocols. TI plans to reshore Silicon Labs' manufacturing from external foundries, leveraging its 300mm wafer fab manufacturing, including in Lehi, Utah, as well as its internal assembly and test capabilities, and notes that its defined process technologies, including 28nm, are optimized for Silicon Labs' wireless connectivity portfolio. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to required regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions; Silicon Labs stockholder approval is also required, with Silicon Labs planning to file a proxy statement with the SEC for a special meeting of stockholders. Both companies will operate independently until the transaction is completed, and there are no changes to how TI's team is structured or operates today. The source does not state any price impact.
