Here is what Madison Mid Cap Fund has to say about Microchip Technology Incorporated (NASDAQ:MCHP) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:
“We initiated a new investment in Microchip Technologies. Microchip is a global provider of microcontroller and analog semiconductor chips. These products are near-ubiquitous in our daily lives, whether we know it or not. They serve as the embedded brains of all sorts of electronic devices and end products that are increasingly smart and connected to the internet, such as cars, phones, kitchen appliances, factory equipment, and so on. Importantly, microcontrollers and analog chips represent a small percentage of the end product bill of materials, yet account for a disproportionately large portion of the performance characteristics of that product. Product cycles and customer retention are very long, as once designed into a product, Microchip is rarely replaced. Growth should be well above average for many years given the increasing electronification around us. In addition, management has announced its intention to return a sizeable portion of its cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks. We like this dual threat of growth together with excess cash flow.”
