Summary

NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NXPI) reported strong revenue growth in 2013, increasing by 10.5% to $4.815 billion, primarily driven by its High Performance Mixed Signal (HPMS) segment, which saw an 18.7% increase. The company's Identification and Automotive businesses within HPMS showed particularly robust growth. Despite the revenue increase, gross profit margin slightly decreased from 45.6% to 45.2% year-over-year, impacted by the absence of a prior year legal award and competitive pricing in the Standard Products segment.

Financially, NXP managed its debt effectively, reducing its total debt from $3.49 billion to $3.32 billion, while its cash balance increased to $670 million.
