Analog Devices, headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts, is a leading global provider of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor solutions. Its product portfolio—including data converters, power-management ICs, RF and microwave ICs, MEMS sensors and digital signal processors—serves a wide range of markets such as industrial, automotive, communications, healthcare, defense and consumer electronics. Founded in 1965, the company reported approximately $9.4 billion in revenue for fiscal 2024 and grew to $11.0 billion in fiscal 2025, a 17% year-over-year increase. With a market capitalization exceeding $100 billion and a Nasdaq listing, ADI is regarded as a bellwether for cyclical sectors like industrials and telecommunications.

The company’s strong financial performance has been accompanied by robust share-price momentum. In its November 25, 2025 earnings release, ADI reported fourth-quarter revenue of $3.08 billion and full-year revenue of $11.0 billion, achieving balanced growth across all business segments. It returned 96% of its $4.3 billion free cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. Supported by these results and its shareholder-return strategy, ADI’s stock reached an all-time high of $276 in early December 2025 and was trading near $297 as of January 12, 2026. Nakamura’s recent share sale, representing a portion of vested restricted stock, is widely viewed as a routine portfolio rebalancing amid strong performance and elevated share prices.
