The higher dividend will be payable November 13, 2017, to stockholders of record on October 31, 2017, contingent upon formal declaration by the board of directors at its regular meeting in October.&#160;&#160;&#160; </p>

This is in addition to approximately $4.6 billion of previously authorized repurchases that remained at the end of June 2017.&#160; </p>

With today&#8217;s announcement, the company has increased dividends each of the past 14 years, and through consistent share repurchases has reduced outstanding shares by 42 percent since the end of 2004. Over the last 12 months, TI paid 47 percent of free cash flow in dividends.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
