Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) is a technology leader specializing in the conception, production, validation, and global marketing of integrated circuits (ICs), software solutions, and advanced subsystems. Their offerings leverage sophisticated analog, mixed-signal, and digital signal processing technologies. The company's comprehensive product lineup features data converters, which are critical for transforming real-world analog signals into digital data and subsequently converting digital data back into analog signals. They also provide power management and reference devices, essential for power conversion, driver supervision, system sequencing, and energy optimization in industries such as automotive, telecommunications, industrial applications, and premium consumer markets. These power ICs are supported by integrated performance, integration, and software design simulation tools for precise power supply development. ADI's portfolio further includes high-performance amplifiers, designed for conditioning analog signals, as well as radio frequency (RF) and microwave ICs that underpin cellular infrastructure. They also develop microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, encompassing accelerometers for sensing acceleration, gyroscopes for measuring rotation, inertial measurement units (IMUs) for detecting multi-axis movement, broadband switches for radio and instrumentation systems, and isolators. Moreover, the company supplies digital signal processing (DSP) and system products engineered for rapid numeric calculations. Serving a wide array of clients across the industrial, automotive, consumer, instrumentation, aerospace, and communications sectors, Analog Devices distributes its products globally. This is accomplished via a multifaceted approach, including a direct sales force, authorized third-party distributors, independent sales representatives throughout the United States, the Americas, Europe, Japan, China, and other regions of Asia, in addition to its online platform.

“Analog Devices, a leading supplier of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors, continued to benefit from strong demand tied to AI infrastructure, industrial applications, and communications.”
Analog Devices - September 2026
“Thomas Hodges: The portfolio's produced a solid absolute return in the year to date. However, that year to date return remains some way behind the index return, buoyed by an exuberant market. What's encouraging is what's happening underneath the portfolio surface. More than two-thirds of holdings have recently seen upward earnings revisions. Companies that had previously been detractors earlier in the year, like Accenture and Eden Red, they were among the strongest contributors this quarter. We're also seeing better operational progress from businesses like Analog Devices, Jack Henry and Starbucks, while dividend growth continues to come through across the portfolio. ”
