Texas Instruments recently increased its quarterly dividend to $1.52, paying nearly double the yield of Analog Devices, which pays $1.10. Despite Texas Instruments' higher payout and 23 years of dividend increases, it uses about 76% of its free cash flow for dividends, leaving a thinner safety margin. Analog Devices, with a lower yield, pays dividends using less than half of its free cash flow and maintains a stronger balance sheet, making its dividend potentially more durable amid market uncertainties. Investors should watch Texas Instruments' capital spending in 2027 and Analog Devices' exposure to AI data center demand for future dividend stability.
As of Oct 30, 2026 02:01 WIB, Texas Instruments (TXN) trades at USD 309.27, closer to its 52-week high of USD 332.35, with a dividend yield of 1.96%, nearly double that of Analog Devices (ADI), which trades higher at USD 429.18 but yields 1.03%. TXN's price is significantly above its 52-week low of USD 153.33, while ADI remains nearer to its 52-week high of USD 445.48. Despite TXN's stronger yield, ADI's higher price and lower yield reflect different investor preferences on Pluang, where TXN sees more selling activity (64%) compared to ADI's slight price gain of 0.21%.
