TXN TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INC Insider Trading

TXN director Martin S Craighead sells 10,000 shares ($3.2M) at $320.43 avg, reducing holdings 41.1%

Director Martin S Craighead executed 2 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $3,204,288.98 on 2026-05-28, reducing his holdings from 24,359 shares to 14,359 shares (a 41.1% reduction). The blended transaction price of $320.43 occurs near the 52-week high of $331.51, with the current price at $305.68 representing a 7.8% decline from peak. Given Texas Instruments' strong recent momentum (90-day return +44.1% and 30-day return +13.5%), alongside robust fundamentals including annual revenue growth of +13.0% and net income of $1,545,000,000.00, this sale of a material portion of holdings warrants investor attention, particularly given the proximity to the 52-week high.

Ahmad Bahai (SVP, TXN) sold 5,000 shares for $1,545,636.00 near 52-week high; prior TXN sales show 1 of 4 well-timed at 90d.

Ahmad Bahai executed two separate sales on 2026-05-14, disposing of 5,000 shares for a combined $1,545,636.00 at prices near the 52-week high of $309.32. His post-transaction holdings of 42,519 shares represent a -10.5% reduction from pre-transaction levels of 47,519 shares. At the same-ticker level, his prior four sales at TXN show mixed 90-day timing: one sale on 2026-04-27 produced 90d +14.8%, a sale on 2026-02-11 produced 90d +27.9%, a sale on 2026-02-05 produced 90d +29.5%, and a sale on 2024-08-27 produced 90d -3.4%, with only 1 of 4 well-timed at the 90-day mark. The current price of $308.17 sits -0.4% from the 52-week high, and the stock has posted +40.8% over the prior 30 days and +36.3% over the prior 90 days, contextualizing this sale within a period of pronounced upward momentum.

TXN CFO Lizardi sells 3 tranches totaling 47,734 shares for $14.7M near 52-week high (-0.4%), reducing holdings by -35.8%

Rafael R Lizardi, Sr. Vice President & CFO of Texas Instruments Inc, filed 3 separate sales totaling 47,734 shares for $14,706,996.48, executed at prices of $307.85, $308.54, and $309.45 on 2026-05-14. The transactions reduce his holdings from 133,219 shares to 85,485 shares, a -35.8% reduction, and were executed with the stock sitting just -0.4% from its 52-week high of $309.32 following a 30-day gain of +40.8%. His 5 prior trades at TXN all posted positive 90-day returns ranging from +11.8% to +35.0%, with 0 of 5 prior sells at this ticker having generated a negative 90-day return — meaning the stock rose after each of those sales. His cross-ticker track record across 7 prior sells shows an avg 90-day return of +16.8% and a 90-day well-timed rate of 14.29%, indicating that across all tickers, prior sells have generally not been followed by stock declines.

TXN Director Carrie Smith Cox sells 8,838 shares for $2.7M as stock trades -0.4% from 52-week high

Carrie Smith Cox, a Director at Texas Instruments, sold 8,838 shares across four transactions on 2026-05-13 for total proceeds of $2,708,028.73, while the stock sits just -0.4% from its 52-week high and has surged +40.8% over the past 30 days. The sale comes against a backdrop of strong momentum but leaves Cox with 37,626 shares post-transaction, indicating continued meaningful exposure to TXN. Her cross-ticker track record includes only 1 prior sell with no measurable 90-day outcome, so there is insufficient historical data to assess her sell-timing accuracy. With TXN trading at a P/E of 52.23 and annual revenue growth of +13.0%, the elevated valuation context may be relevant to how investors interpret the timing of this disposal near the stock's 52-week peak.

Sr. VP Leonard Shanon J sells 4,963 TXN shares for $1.47M; stock near 52-week highs after strong recent rally.

Leonard Shanon J, Senior Vice President at Texas Instruments, sold nearly 5,000 shares at current market prices, reducing his stake by roughly one-sixth. The sale comes as the stock trades near its 52-week high following a substantial rally over the past three months, a typical moment when insiders take profits. His track record at this ticker is mixed: one recent sale in late April coincided with the stock rising afterward, but two prior exits in mid-2024 were followed by declining stock prices—suggesting he has picked both profitable and unprofitable exit windows. Texas Instruments remains a profitable, growing company with strong recent earnings, so the sale reflects portfolio positioning rather than concerns about the underlying business. As the fifth open-market sale this insider has made in the past three years, this continues a pattern of periodic selling, though without any open-market purchases in the same window to suggest hedging activity.

TXN CEO Ilan Haviv simultaneously buys and sells shares at stock near 52-week highs

CEO Ilan Haviv executed a paired transaction—purchasing roughly twenty thousand shares while simultaneously selling roughly double that amount at the stock's current elevated price near its fifty-two-week highs. This simultaneous buy-sell pattern is characteristic of portfolio rebalancing or option exercise processing rather than a conviction signal about undervaluation. The sale proceeds substantially exceed the purchase value, netting significant proceeds at a point where the stock has recovered strongly and sits in the upper band of its annual range. Against a backdrop of a profitable company generating solid revenue growth with a reasonable track record, this appears to be a cash management or diversification move by a CEO at an opportune selling window, rather than a vote of concern or confidence in the business fundamentals.

VP & Chief Accounting Officer Julie Knecht sells majority of holdings while exercising options, net disposition of shares.

Julie Knecht, VP & Chief Accounting Officer at Texas Instruments, exercised stock options and executed two separate share sales on the same day, resulting in a net disposition of shares that reduced her position significantly. The sales occurred as the stock trades near its 52-week high following a substantial run over the past three months, and the company remains profitable with growing revenue, though valued at a stretched multiple. Knecht's prior sale at this company in 2024 proved well-timed—the stock subsequently declined—and this latest transaction follows that same pattern of selling strength. The exercise paired with immediate sales suggests portfolio rebalancing tied to option vesting rather than a new conviction about company fundamentals, but the timing alongside elevated valuation warrants noting for investors monitoring insider positioning.

TXN C-suite insider exercises stock options and immediately sells near 52-week highs.

A Texas Instruments executive exercised roughly 3,660 shares and promptly sold the same amount at nearly identical timing on the same day—a classic option-exercise-and-sell transaction. The sale occurred when the stock was trading just shy of its recent highs, suggesting the insider chose to lock in gains during a strong rally rather than hold the newly acquired shares. Texas Instruments remains a profitable, revenue-growing company with solid fundamentals, though valuations appear stretched on a forward basis. The simultaneous exercise and sale, combined with the timing near peak prices, signals confidence in current valuation rather than conviction in further upside—this is taking profits after a material run-up, not accumulation. For retail investors, this is a neutral-to-mildly-cautious signal: the insider is neither aggressively buying weakness nor abandoning the stock, but rather using a high-water-mark moment to diversify holdings.

TXN executive sells $5M+ while buying $1.6M in same-day dual transaction

A Texas Instruments C-suite executive executed a simultaneous buy and sell on the same day—purchasing approximately 16k shares while divesting nearly 18.5k shares, netting a significant sale of over $5 million. This balanced transaction pattern suggests portfolio rebalancing or liquidity needs rather than pure conviction selling, though the net outflow is material. The company itself shows robust fundamental health with strong profitability, double-digit revenue growth, and solid recent quarterly performance, signaling an underlying business in good shape. The stock is trading near its 52-week highs and has surged sharply over the past three months, which may have motivated the executive to lock in gains at elevated valuations. The insider's mixed activity—buying alongside selling—offers limited directional conviction either way, but the magnitude of the net sale warrants monitoring for any signal of reduced confidence at current price levels.

C-suite executive at Texas Instruments buys large stake while multiple insiders simultaneously divest significant holdings.

One executive accumulated a substantial position in Texas Instruments on the same day that multiple other insiders sold significant portions of their holdings, creating a mixed signal about management confidence. The buyer is purchasing into a company with strong profitability and solid revenue growth, though the stock is trading near its recent highs after a sharp recovery in recent weeks. The simultaneous sales by other executives—totaling over six million dollars—suggest possible portfolio rebalancing or tax-motivated selling rather than a unified bearish view, yet the divergence warrants attention. The buyer's conviction to deploy significant capital into a profitable, growing semiconductor company with solid fundamentals could indicate selective buying opportunity, but the coordinated selling by peers on the same date raises questions about timing and messaging clarity.
