What would change the picture for TXN

These are the specific events and levels to watch. None of them is a prediction.

  • Insider buying: none on the open market in 90 days. A purchase by an executive or director would be the first in at least three months. It would show up on SEC Form 4 within two business days.
  • Analyst ratings: the average score moved from 3.49 to 3.56 over three months. The scale runs from 5 for strong buy to 1 for strong sell. A run of downgrades after earnings usually shows up here first.
  • Price levels: a close above $330.58 would be a new 52-week high, 16.1% above the latest close of $284.65. A close below $150.78 would be a new 52-week low, 47.0% below it.
  • Growth: revenue rose 16.7% year over year in the quarter ending Jun 2026 (trend: accelerating). At a P/E of 43.3, a slowdown would matter more than at a lower multiple.
  • New shares: dilution risk is low now. A new shelf registration (S-3) or a prospectus supplement (424B) for an offering would raise it.

Key terms on this page

P/E ratio
Price divided by the last 12 months of earnings per share. A P/E of 20 means investors pay $20 for each $1 of yearly profit. It is only defined when the company is profitable.
Form 4
The SEC form a company's officers, directors and 10% owners must file within two business days of buying or selling its stock.
Open-market trade
A purchase or sale on the exchange at the market price, paid with the insider's own money (code P or S on Form 4), as opposed to option exercises, grants or gifts.
Dilution
When a company issues new shares, each existing share owns a smaller piece of the company. Common sources: stock offerings, convertible debt and large stock-based pay.
52-week high / low
The highest and lowest daily closing price over the past year (about 252 trading days).
Analyst consensus
The average of Wall Street analysts' ratings (strong buy to strong sell). Analysts skew positive, so a hold is often read as a cautious view.
