Dividends & stock splits

Dividends

Our objective with dividends is to appeal to a broader set of investors; our focus is on both growth and sustainability.

At the bottom of this page, you can find our current dividend.

In 2019, we raised our quarterly dividend 17%, marking the 16th consecutive year of dividend increases. Over the last five years, we have increased the dividend at a compounded annual growth rate of about 20%.

The consistent growth of our free cash flow resulted in our dividends in 2019 consuming only 52% of free cash flow, supporting our objectives of sustainability and growth of dividends.

TI has delivered dividends to its shareholders uninterrupted since it first began making dividend payments in 1962*. For an extended period of time, our dividend rate had held constant at $0.085 per share annually. As TI began to shift its product portfolio to higher-profit Analog and Embedded Processing products, both of which require less capital spending, the company began to generate more cash flow from operations, and returned that cash to shareholders in the form of increased dividends and share repurchases.
