Texas Instruments (ISIN US8825081040) traded at USD 271.11 on Nasdaq at 3:39 p.m. Eastern Time on September 22, 2026, up USD 4.47, or 1.68 percent, from the prior close. The move came as the semiconductor maker entered the market session with a higher quarterly dividend and strong second-quarter operating figures.
Dividend rises to USD 1.52
According to Zacks on September 22, 2026, Texas Instruments raised its quarterly dividend by 7 percent to USD 1.52 per share. The increase marked the companys 23rd consecutive year of dividend growth and lifted the annualized payout to USD 6.08.
The dividend change gives the stock a concrete income angle, but the payout ratio reported by MarketBeat on September 22, 2026, stood at 86.45 percent. That makes earnings growth and cash generation important counterweights to the higher distribution.
Second-quarter figures beat estimates
Texas Instruments reported USD 5.46 billion in revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, according to MarketBeat. Revenue was 22.8 percent higher than in the same quarter of 2025, when the company recorded USD 4.45 billion.
Quarterly earnings per share reached USD 2.14, compared with USD 1.41 a year earlier and the USD 1.91 analyst consensus cited by MarketBeat. The USD 0.23 beat over consensus and the USD 0.73 year-over-year EPS increase show why the latest dividend decision arrived alongside improving reported profitability.
Analyst target remains above price

Texas Instruments guidance for the third quarter of 2026 was USD 2.230 to USD 2.570 in earnings per share, according to MarketBeat. The range places the next quarterly profit test above the USD 2.14 EPS delivered for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
