Texas Instruments Stock Performance
Texas Instruments Incorporated shares closed at $258.64, reflecting a modest daily gain of 0.36%, per SID market data.

Despite this near-term pullback, TXN has delivered a strong 41.64% return over the past twelve months, underscoring longer-term upside momentum. The stock currently trades well below its 50-day moving average of $285.89, a discount of approximately 9.5%, while maintaining a position above its 200-day moving average of $244.26. The 14-day relative strength index stands at 31.1, placing TXN near oversold territory according to Massive/Polygon technical data. Average daily volume registers at approximately 7.83 million shares, and the stock carries a beta of 0.989, indicating volatility closely aligned with the broader market. Total market capitalization stands at approximately $165.1 billion.
Texas Instruments Valuation Analysis
Texas Instruments currently trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 32.75, a notable premium relative to the broader semiconductor industry, per SID market data. The PEG ratio stands at an elevated 90.23, suggesting the current earnings multiple is not well supported by near-term growth expectations. The company's price-to-book ratio of 9.93 reflects significant market premium over its balance sheet value, consistent with capital-intensive semiconductor manufacturers investing heavily in fabrication capacity. According to SEC filings, TXN offers a dividend yield of approximately 3.03%, positioning it among the higher-yielding names in the Technology sector and providing income-oriented investors with a tangible return component. The combination of a high P/E, an exceptionally elevated PEG ratio, and a nearly double-digit price-to-book multiple indicates the market is pricing in substantial long-term earnings recovery. These valuation levels reflect investor expectations for meaningful revenue acceleration in future quarters.
Smart Money Activity for TXN
Texas Instruments registers a smart money score of 53 out of 100, reflecting a neutral overall positioning among institutional and insider stakeholders, per SID market data. The insider activity component scores a notable 18.0 out of 25, supported by three insider transactions over the past 90 days — all of which were purchases with zero insider sales recorded during the period, according to SEC Form 4 filings. This unanimously bullish insider buying pattern suggests company executives see value at current price levels. Institutional ownership scores a perfect 25 out of 25, indicating extremely strong conviction among large fund managers and asset allocators, per 13F institutional filings. Conversely, dark pool activity scores a moderate 8.5 out of 25, suggesting limited off-exchange accumulation. Congressional trading activity is minimal at 1.7 out of 25. The divergence between strong insider and institutional signals and weaker dark pool and congressional components produces the composite neutral reading, though the insider buying trend warrants close monitoring.
Texas Instruments Earnings Outlook
Texas Instruments has demonstrated improving earnings momentum across recent quarters, according to company earnings reports. In the most recent quarter reported on July 22, 2026, TXN posted earnings per share of $2.14, exceeding analyst estimates of $1.92 by $0.22, representing an 11.5% positive surprise. The prior quarter, reported April 22, 2026, showed an even stronger beat with actual EPS of $1.68 versus estimates of $1.37, a $0.31 positive surprise. The January 2026 quarter produced a slight miss, with actual EPS of $1.27 falling below the $1.30 consensus by $0.03. Looking ahead, analyst estimates project EPS of $1.92 for the upcoming quarter, per consensus data. The sequential earnings trajectory from $1.27 to $1.68 to $2.14 illustrates a clear recovery pattern, with each successive quarter showing accelerating profitability. This earnings ramp aligns with broader analog semiconductor demand normalization following an extended inventory correction cycle.
Wall Street Analyst Ratings for TXN
Wall Street coverage of Texas Instruments reflects a divided outlook among analysts, per SID consensus data. In the most recent action dated August 17, 2026, Cantor Fitzgerald reiterated a Neutral rating on TXN. Following the July earnings report, Rosenblatt and Benchmark both maintained Buy ratings on July 23-24, 2026, signaling continued confidence in the company's long-term positioning. Conversely, Goldman Sachs reiterated a Sell rating on July 23, 2026, maintaining a bearish stance despite the earnings beat. Mizuho also maintained a Neutral rating on the same date, according to Wall Street analyst reports. The distribution of recent ratings — two Buy, two Neutral, and one Sell — illustrates a lack of consensus among major firms. Notably, no analyst changed their directional stance following TXN's 11.5% earnings surprise, suggesting that differing views center on valuation and capital expenditure sustainability rather than near-term execution. The stock's 15.39% three-month decline has not prompted any downgrades among tracked analysts.
