Bulls say / Bears say

Qualcomm beat Q2 expectations with fiscal Q2 revenue of $10.98 billion and adjusted EPS of $2.85, surpassing consensus estimates of $10.66 billion and $2.82, driven by strong performance in its QCT and QTL divisions (Reuters)
The company projected Q3 revenue between $10.3 billion and $11.1 billion, well above the analyst average of $10.64 billion, showing its confidence in AI-driven chip demand (Reuters)
Qualcomm’s chip segment sales to customers excluding Apple grew by over 15% this fiscal year, demonstrating successful diversification away from heavy Apple dependence (Reuters)
Qualcomm warned that U.S. tariff uncertainties and possible escalation in U.S.-China trade tensions could dampen revenue, noting the direct impact is 'difficult to predict' and may weaken demand across smartphones, consumer IoT, and automotive markets (Reuters)
The upcoming loss of Apple as a modem customer—Apple made up 27% of Qualcomm’s revenue in Q2 and is expected to stop contributing by 2027—presents a significant headwind for its handset chip business (Reuters)
Almost half (46%) of Qualcomm’s sales come from China, leaving the company highly exposed to geopolitical risks and possible regulatory or trade barriers that could affect its financial results (Reuters)
