Is Texas Instruments Incorporated (TXN) Halal?

PASS

Texas Instruments Incorporated · NASDAQ: TXN · Technology

The short answer

Yes — Texas Instruments Incorporated (TXN) passes this Shariah stock screen. The Dallas-based semiconductor maker (Analog: Power and Signal Chain; Embedded Processing; plus DLP, calculators and custom ASICs) has no disclosed prohibited business lines and no defense segment. Its total debt of $14,048M is about 5.42% of its ~$259.4B market cap ($281.31, October 1, 2026), below the ~33% ceiling. Non-compliant income is conservatively bounded at ≤1.46% of FY2025 revenue ($17,682M): TI's 10-K does not report standalone interest income — its "Other income" line of $258M bundles interest, royalty, lease and tax-interest income — and the gate passes even treating the entire line as non-compliant income (the 10-K's figure is used; Zoya's page incorrectly claims $0). Zoya rates TXN Shariah-compliant and Musaffa classifies it as halal; no ShariaPortfolio rating was found — honestly reported as absent, not invented.

Gate 1 — Business activity: PASS

Texas Instruments Incorporated (NASDAQ: TXN), founded in 1930 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, states in its 10-K Item 1: "We design and manufacture semiconductors that we sell to electronics designers and manufacturers all over the world." It reports two segments: Analog (Power and Signal Chain product lines — converting/amplifying signals and managing power in electronic equipment) and Embedded Processing (the digital "brains" of electronic equipment). Remaining activities are reported in Other (DLP products, calculators, custom ASICs). FY2025 revenue: $17,682M. Haram flags: none disclosed — no alcohol, pork, gambling, tobacco, adult entertainment, conventional finance/insurance, or weapons business appears anywhere in the 10-K business description; no defense segment is reported (TI is a components supplier selling across industrial, automotive, personal electronics and communications end markets). Factual note: on February 4, 2026 TI agreed to acquire Silicon Labs for ~$7.5B in cash (expected to close H1 2027) — a semiconductor deal. Gate 1 passes. Facts only.

Gate 2 — Debt and cash: PASS

Per Texas Instruments' FY2025 10-K (year ended December 31, 2025, published February 6, 2026), total debt was $14,048M — current portion of long-term debt $500M + long-term debt $13,548M. Against a market cap of about $259.4B ($281.31, October 1, 2026), debt ÷ market cap is about 5.42% — below the ~33% ceiling. Cash and cash equivalents ($3,225M) plus short-term investments ($1,656M) total $4,881M, about 1.88% of market cap. Shares outstanding: 907,550,774 at January 27, 2026. Interest and debt expense was $543M in FY2025 — reported for completeness, not a screen input. Gate 2 passes. Facts only.

Gate 3 — Non-compliant income: PASS

Important disclosure: Texas Instruments' 10-K does not report a standalone interest-income figure — MD&A attributes the OI&E decline to "lower interest income," and Note 11 bundles interest income into "Other income" of $258M, a line that includes interest, royalty, lease and tax-interest income combined. Treating the entire $258M as non-compliant income as a conservative upper bound: $258M ÷ $17,682M FY2025 revenue = ≤1.46% of revenue — below the 5% non-compliant income ceiling. (An aggregator derives $195.5M interest income from XBRL data = 1.11% of revenue — directionally consistent, cited only as a cross-check. Zoya's public page claims "$0" — its scraper missing the bundled note; the 10-K is authoritative.) Gate 3 passes. Facts only.

Why does Texas Instruments pass this Shariah stock screen?

Texas Instruments passes all three gates of this screen. Its business is semiconductors (analog and embedded processing) — with no prohibited lines and no defense segment disclosed in the 10-K (it is a components supplier selling across industrial, automotive, personal electronics and communications end markets). Total debt of $14,048M is about 5.42% of its ~$259.4B market cap, below the ~33% ceiling. Non-compliant income is conservatively bounded at ≤1.46% of FY2025 revenue ($17,682M): TI's 10-K does not report a standalone interest-income figure — its "Other income" line of $258M bundles interest, royalty, lease and tax-interest income, and the gate passes even treating the entire line as non-compliant income. Zoya rates TXN Shariah-compliant and Musaffa classifies it as halal. This is a factual screen, not a religious ruling — consult a qualified scholar for personal rulings.

What is Texas Instruments' interest-bearing debt ratio?

Per Texas Instruments' FY2025 10-K (year ended December 31, 2025, published February 6, 2026), total debt was $14,048M — current portion of long-term debt $500M + long-term debt $13,548M. Against a market cap of about $259.4B ($281.31, October 1, 2026), debt ÷ market cap is about 5.42% — below the ~33% ceiling. Cash and cash equivalents ($3,225M) plus short-term investments ($1,656M) total $4,881M, about 1.88% of market cap. Shares outstanding: 907,550,774 at January 27, 2026.

What is Texas Instruments' non-compliant income ratio?

Texas Instruments' FY2025 10-K (Note 11) reports "Other income" of $258M — a bundled line that footnote says includes interest, royalty, lease and tax-interest income combined; the 10-K does not break out standalone interest income. Treating the entire $258M as non-compliant income as a conservative upper bound: $258M ÷ $17,682M revenue = ≤1.46% of revenue — below the 5% ceiling. (An aggregator derives $195.5M interest income from XBRL data = 1.11% of revenue — directionally consistent, cited only as a cross-check. Zoya's public page claims "$0" interest income — its scraper missing the bundled note; the 10-K is authoritative.)

Do Zoya, Musaffa, or ShariaPortfolio cover Texas Instruments?

Zoya covers TXN (zoya.finance/stocks/txn): the canonical answer is "TXN is Shariah-compliant and therefore considered halal to invest in" (AAOIFI guidelines; the usual auto-template caveat applies). Musaffa covers TXN (musaffa.com/stock/TXN/): "As of September 2026, Texas Instruments Inc is classified as halal" under AAOIFI. ShariaPortfolio: no TXN-specific public rating found in web search — honestly reported as absent, not invented. This page applies the screen directly from Texas Instruments' own filings.
