Waar het op steunt, en wat het kan breken
Waar het bedrijf van afhangt
- 1Most chip production uses outside foundries and assembly and testing companies; named foundry suppliers include Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Samsung Electronics and GlobalFoundries.
- 2A small number of customers and licensees account for a notable share of sales: Apple, Samsung and Xiaomi each made up at least 10% of consolidated revenue in fiscal 2025.
- 3Patent-licensing revenue depends on device makers selling products that use cellular and other licensed technologies, and on license agreements continuing or being renewed.
- 4The company reports significant business concentration in China and exposure to changes in United States–China trade and national-security policies.
Wat er mis kan gaan
- 1Revenue depends in part on a small group of customers and licensees and their sales of premium smartphones; some large customers are also developing their own chips.
- 2Dependence on a limited number of outside manufacturers and suppliers exposes chip production to capacity limits, higher input costs and interruptions to manufacturing, assembly or testing.
- 3Government investigations, court cases or disputes with licensees could require changes to patent-licensing practices or affect royalty collection.
Over Qualcomm Inc.
Qualcomm designs chips and related software that help devices compute and connect, including smartphones, cars and Internet of Things (IoT) equipment. It earns money by selling chips and by licensing patents used in wireless devices; licensees generally pay royalties based on their product sales. It also makes strategic investments and has a data-center business that has begun generating some sales while developing additional chips and software.
