Texas Instruments stock (ISIN US8825081040) closed at USD 266.64 on September 18, 2026, with a market capitalization of USD 243.51 billion and a 52-week range of USD 152.73 to USD 334.03. UBS named Texas Instruments its top chipmaker pick with a USD 380 price target, while Simply Wall St said the quarterly dividend could rise 7 percent from USD 1.42 to USD 1.52 per share.
UBS sees more upside
As Finance Sina reported on September 20, 2026, UBS called Texas Instruments its preferred analog chipmaker and set a USD 380 target. The same report said UBS expects revenue growth of about 20 percent next year.
That target sits about 42.6 percent above the Nasdaq close of USD 266.64 on September 18, 2026. For investors, the gap matters more than the headline move.
Dividend adds a second signal
According to ad hoc news on September 19, 2026, Texas Instruments intends to lift its quarterly dividend by 7 percent from USD 1.42 to USD 1.52 per share, which would raise the annual payout to USD 6.08 if approved. The report also repeated a MarketBeat consensus target of USD 312.12.
MarketBeat said Texas Instruments reported Q2 2026 earnings on July 22, 2026, with EPS of USD 2.14 versus consensus of USD 1.91 and revenue up 22.8 percent year over year. A first.
