NXP Semiconductors N.V.
NXP is a semiconductor designer and manufacturer (operating a hybrid model of owned fabs and third-party foundries) primarily serving automotive and industrial & IOT (approx 75% of revenue with 58% being from automotive) but also serving mobile and communications infrastructure markets. Although a Netherlands-based company, it operates in more than 30 countries, trades on the NASDAQ and reports in $U.S., delivered more than $12 billion in revenue in FY25 and sports a market cap of more than $50 billion.
As a testament to their quality, their FY25 automotive revenue was only 5% below their 2023 high while many peers saw significant declines and their adjusted EPS declined by only 16% while many peers saw declines of 30% or much more.
Feb 2nd 2026 Divested Automotive MEMS business to ST Micro for up to $950m (Revs 300m in FY24)
