Is NXP Semiconductors (NXPI) a high-quality business?+

What does NXP Semiconductors's quality score measure?+
Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs revenue and free-cash-flow growth, operating margins, return on invested capital, change in share count, and balance-sheet strength, each computed from NXPI's SEC filings rather than opinion or sentiment. A higher score means a more durable, capital-efficient business; it is not a buy or sell signal. Open each metric on this page to see exactly where NXP Semiconductors scores well and where it falls behind.
What is NXP Semiconductors's return on invested capital (ROIC)?+
NXP Semiconductors earns about 15.1% on its invested capital, which is strong. ROIC measures how much profit a company generates per dollar put to work; sustained ROIC above its cost of capital is one of the clearest signs of a real competitive moat. Compare it to NXPI's margins and growth on this scorecard to judge durability.
How profitable is NXP Semiconductors?+
NXP Semiconductors runs an operating margin of about 33.0% and a net margin of about 23.4%. Revenue has grown at roughly 7.3% a year recently. High, stable margins usually point to pricing power and operating discipline. Margins are most telling next to growth and returns on capital, all of which feed this quality score. This is analysis from SEC filings, not investment advice.
