Madison Investors Fund made the following comment about Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADI) in its Q1 2023 investor letter:

“Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADI) grew profits nicely in 2022, bucking the overall semiconductor industry trend of a decline brought on by a drop in demand and excess inventory in the channels. Analog is one of the leaders in the analog semiconductor segment, where supply is much more constricted due to the shortage of engineering expertise and new capacity construction. Thus, the company often beats to a different drummer than the rest of the semiconductor industry.”
