Texas Instruments Inc. shares declined the most in nearly five years after the chipmaker gave a disappointing earnings forecast for the current period, hurt by still-sluggish demand and higher manufacturing costs.

Texas Instruments forecast first-quarter profit below analysts' estimates on Thursday, as the analog chipmaker grapples with an inventory buildup in its key automotive and industrial markets.

The company’s shares fell 7.5 percent to US$185.52 in New York on Friday. That wiped out the stock’s entire gain this year and marked the worst single-day rout since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. Texas Instruments CEO Haviv Ilan on a conference call with analysts on Thursday said that industrial demand remains slow.
