Analog Devices' primary revenue drivers in fiscal year 2023 were the Industrial and Automotive end markets, which contributed 53% and 24% of total revenue, respectively.

Overall, these efforts led to a 21% increase in Net Income.
What is the company's strategy regarding capital allocation and shareholder returns?
Analog Devices prioritizes efficient capital use, including investing in R&D and pursuing strategic acquisitions to complement its product offerings.
