Texas Instruments stock forecast: Analyst price target view

UBS (Buy)

UBS retains a Buy rating but reduces its one-year target to $245, citing lower visibility on AI-related capital expenditure and slower industrial restocking amid ongoing geopolitical headwinds (TradingView, 13 October 2025).

BofA Securities (Underperform)

BofA Securities maintains its Underperform rating and a $190 one-year price target. The bank notes limited AI exposure, tariff-related challenges, and margin pressure amid soft industrial demand (Financial Modeling Prep, 13 October 2025).

TD Cowen (Buy)

TD Cowen reiterates a Buy rating and sets a $210 target, citing steady semiconductor demand and consistent analog chip shipments supported by diversified end-market exposure (MarketScreener, 10 October 2025).

Morgan Stanley (Underweight)

Morgan Stanley continues to hold an Underweight rating with a $192 target, noting that analog chip results fell short of expectations against a high September-quarter benchmark as cyclical headwinds persist. The bank highlights uneven restocking trends and a cautious outlook for automotive markets (AInvest, 12 September 2025).
