Texas Instruments posts Q3 profit surge and raises Q4 outlook

Texas Instruments reported third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $6.06 billion, net income of $2.43 billion and GAAP earnings per share of $2.62, beating estimates. Revenue grew 28% year‑over‑year and 11% sequentially. The company forecast fourth‑quarter revenue of $5.80‑$6.30 billion and EPS of $2.45‑$2.79, both above consensus. Management highlighted strong cash flow, $9.9 billion operating cash over the trailing 12 months, and $5.8 billion returned to shareholders.

The earnings beat and raised outlook suggest continued demand for TI’s analog chips, supporting revenue growth expectations. However, Wells Fargo cut its price target to $300, indicating some analysts see limited upside after the strong results.
