(Reuters) -Activist investor Elliott Investment Management disclosed a $2.5 billion stake in analog chipmaker Texas Instruments and urged the chipmaker to improve its free cash flow.
Texas Instrument’s shares rose about 3% in early trading.
Elliott proposed in a letter to the company’s board that Texas Instruments introduce a “dynamic capacity-management strategy”, which would allow it to achieve free cash flow of as much as $9 a share by 2026.
The company’s free cash flow fell 77% to $1.47 per share in 2023, according to LSEG data.
