You need to change the .*? part into a negated character class.

"([^"]*)"

However, you can utilize DOM to achieve this as well.

$doc = DOMDocument::loadHTML('
     <input value="AAA" name="A1">
     <input value="BBB" name="A2">
     <input value="TEXT" name="A3">
');

$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
$match = $xpath->query('//input[@name="A3"]');

echo $match->item(0)->getAttribute('value');
