Qualcomm Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2010 Results
Revenues $2.7 Billion, EPS $0.50
Pro Forma EPS $0.62
Reaffirms Fiscal 2010 Earnings Guidance
SAN DIEGO — January 27, 2010 — Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and innovator of advanced wireless technologies, products and services, today announced results for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 ended December 27, 2009.
“We are pleased with our performance this quarter, driven by healthy demand for our chipsets, strong shipments of 3G devices by our licensees and lower operating expenses. We’re executing on our strategic objectives and reaffirming our 2010 3G device forecast, an increase of 21 percent year-over-year,” said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, chairman and CEO of Qualcomm. “I am very encouraged by customer traction around Qualcomm technologies, including recent device announcements based on our industry-leading Snapdragon™ chipset and increased adoption of our Brew Mobile Platform™ operating system. As anticipated, we have seen a competitive pricing environment in the chipset market and are proactively managing within this dynamic to grow our market share. A subdued economic recovery in developed regions, including Europe and Japan, combined with relative strength at the lower end of the market, is changing our estimated 3G device average selling price and chipset mix for this fiscal year. Accordingly, we are modestly reducing our fiscal year revenue estimates to reflect this near-term market situation, but are maintaining our earnings per share guidance.”
“The fundamental drivers of our business remain strong. We are confident that 3G will continue to develop as anticipated, and we continue to invest in innovative new products, such as Snapdragon, FLO TV™, mirasol™ and next-generation technologies, to enhance our leadership position and capitalize on this growth.”

The large increase in net income year-over-year was primarily due to a significant improvement in net investment income as our marketable securities recovered value and financial markets stabilized. The significant decrease in cash flows year-over-year was primarily due to the receipt of a $2.5 billion payment in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 related to the license and settlement agreements with Nokia.
Detailed reconciliations between results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and pro forma results are included at the end of this news release. Prior period reconciliations are presented on Qualcomm’s Investor Relations web page at www.qualcomm.com.
Cash and Marketable Securities
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled approximately $18.9 billion at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2010, compared to $17.7 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 and $13.1 billion a year ago.

Pro forma selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by 11 percent year-over-year, primarily due to a decrease in costs related to litigation and other legal matters. QSI SG&A expenses were primarily related to FLO TV.
Effective Income Tax Rate
Our fiscal 2010 effective income tax rates are estimated to be approximately 21 percent for GAAP and approximately 21 to 22 percent for pro forma. Our estimate of the fiscal 2010 GAAP effective tax rate includes tax expense of approximately $130 million that arises because deferred revenue related to the 2008 license and settlement agreements with Nokia is taxable in fiscal 2010, but the resulting deferred tax asset will reverse in future years when our state tax rate will be lower as a result of California tax legislation enacted in 2009. This tax expense was excluded from our pro forma results to provide a clearer understanding of our ongoing tax rate and after tax earnings.
Qualcomm Strategic Initiatives
The QSI segment is composed of our strategic investments, including FLO TV. GAAP results for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 included a $0.03 diluted loss per share for the QSI segment. The first quarter of fiscal 2010 QSI results included $106 million in operating expenses, primarily related to FLO TV.
Business Outlook
The following statements are forward looking and actual results may differ materially. The “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this news release provides a description of certain risks that we face, and our annual and quarterly reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) provide a more complete description of risks.

The potential instability in financial markets may continue to have an impact on the value of our marketable securities and net investment income (loss). While we do not forecast impairments, we have temporary unrealized losses on marketable securities that could be recognized as other-than-temporary losses in future periods if financial conditions affecting those securities do not improve.
Our outlook does not include provisions for the consequences of injunctions, damages or fines related to any pending legal matters unless awarded or imposed by a court, governmental entity or other regulatory body. In addition, due to their nature, certain income and expense items, such as realized investment gains or losses, gains and losses on certain derivative instruments or asset impairments, cannot be accurately forecast. Accordingly, we exclude forecasts of such items from our business outlook, and actual results may vary materially from the business outlook if we incur any such income or expense items.
The following table summarizes GAAP and pro forma guidance based on the current business outlook. The pro forma business outlook provided below is presented consistent with the presentation of pro forma results elsewhere herein.

| (1) | | Pro forma reconciling items related to revenues consist primarily of other nonreportable segment revenues less intersegment eliminations. Pro forma reconciling items related to earnings before taxes consist primarily of certain investment income or losses, research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses and other operating expenses that are not allocated to the segments for management reporting purposes, nonreportable segment results and the elimination of intersegment profit. |
| |
| (2) | | Certain share-based compensation is included in operating expenses as part of employee-related costs but is not allocated to the Company’s segments as such costs are not considered relevant by management in evaluating segment performance. |
| |
| (3) | | During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company recorded a $32 million state tax expense, or $0.02 diluted loss per share, that arises because deferred revenue related to the license and settlement agreements with Nokia is taxable in fiscal 2010 but the resulting deferred tax asset will reverse in future years when the Company’s state tax rate will be lower. |
| |
| (4) | | At fiscal year-end, the sum of the quarterly tax provisions for each column, including QSI, equals the annual tax provisions for each column computed in accordance with GAAP. In interim quarters, the tax provision for the QSI operating segment is computed by subtracting the pro forma tax provision, the tax items column and the tax provision related to share-based compensation from the GAAP tax provision. |

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company presents pro forma financial information that is used by management (i) to evaluate, assess and benchmark the Company’s operating results on a consistent and comparable basis; (ii) to measure the performance and efficiency of the Company’s ongoing core operating businesses, including the Qualcomm CDMA Technologies, Qualcomm Technology Licensing and Qualcomm Wireless & Internet segments; and (iii) to compare the performance and efficiency of these segments against each other and against competitors

| Qualcomm Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2010 Results | | Page 9 of 15 |
outside the Company. Pro forma measurements of the following financial data are used by the Company’s management: revenues, R&D expenses, SG&A expenses, total operating expenses, operating income (loss), net investment income (loss), income (loss) before income taxes, effective tax rate, net income (loss), diluted earnings (loss) per share, operating cash flow and free cash flow. Management is able to assess what it believes is a more meaningful and comparable set of financial performance measures for the Company and its business segments by using pro forma information. As a result, management compensation decisions and the review of executive compensation by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors focus primarily on pro forma financial measures applicable to the Company and its business segments.
Pro forma information used by management excludes the QSI segment, certain share-based compensation, certain tax items and acquired in-process R&D. The QSI segment is excluded because the Company expects to exit its strategic investments at various times, and the effects of fluctuations in the value of such investments are viewed by management as unrelated to the Company’s operational performance. Share-based compensation, other than amounts related to share-based awards granted under a bonus program that may result in the issuance of unrestricted shares of the Company’s common stock, is excluded because management views such share-based compensation as unrelated to the Company’s operational performance. Moreover, it is generally not an expense that requires or will require cash payment by the Company. Further, share-based compensation related to stock options is affected by factors that are subject to change, including the Company’s stock price, stock market volatility, expected option life, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend payouts in future years. Certain tax items that were recorded in reported earnings in each fiscal year presented, but were unrelated to the fiscal year in which they were recorded, are excluded in order to provide a clearer understanding of the Company’s ongoing pro forma tax rate and after tax earnings. Acquired in-process R&D is excluded because such expense is viewed by management as unrelated to the operating activities of the Company’s ongoing core businesses.
The Company presents free cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, to facilitate an understanding of the amount of cash flow generated that is available to grow its business and to create long-term shareholder value. The Company believes that this presentation is useful in evaluating its operating performance and financial
| | |
| Qualcomm Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2010 Results | | Page 10 of 15 |
strength. In addition, management uses this measure to evaluate the Company’s performance, to value the Company and to compare its operating performance with other companies in the industry.
The non-GAAP pro forma financial information presented herein should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, “pro forma” is not a term defined by GAAP, and, as a result, the Company’s measure of pro forma results might be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations between GAAP results and pro forma results are presented herein.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Actual results may differ substantially from those referred to herein due to a number of factors, including but not limited to risks associated with: the rate of deployment and adoption of our technologies in wireless networks and of wireless communications, equipment and services, including CDMA2000 1X, 1xEV-DO, WCDMA, HSPA, TD-SCDMA and OFDMA both domestically and internationally; the current uncertainty of global economic conditions and its potential impact on demand for our products, services or applications and the value of our marketable securities; attacks on our business model, including results of current and future litigation and arbitration proceedings, as well as actions of governmental or quasi-governmental bodies, and the costs we incur in connection therewith, including potentially damaged relationships with customers and operators who may be impacted by the results of these proceedings; our dependence on major customers and licensees; our dependence on third-party manufacturers and suppliers; our ability to maintain and improve operational efficiencies and profitability; the development, deployment and commercial acceptance of the FLO TV network and FLO™ technology; the development and commercial acceptance of the IMOD display technology; foreign currency fluctuations; strategic investments and transactions we have or may pursue; as well as the other risks detailed from time-to-time in our SEC reports.
