MARVELL TECHNOLOGY, INC vs TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATED, two Semiconductors stocks. A side-by-side on valuation, growth, margins, returns, and what each price is betting.
Texas Instruments earns 32% on equity and 15.6% on assets; Marvell earns 3.3% and 2.2%. On capital returns this is not a rivalry, it is a lesson: analog chips sold into everything, from a company mid-harvest, against custom silicon sold into AI datacenters, from a company mid-investment. The market pays for the investment phase anyway, 91.4 times Marvell's earnings against 48.8 times TI's, because the AI order book is the growth story and analog is the recovery story. TI pays a 1.9% dividend and holds a 4.5 current ratio; Marvell retains everything. The pair asks whether tomorrow's possible franchise outprices today's proven one, and answers loudly.
