>> Qualcomm’s revenue is likely to decline by 2% in 2016

Reasons for the above revenue estimate:

  • A likely decline in Qualcomm’s royalty rate and the device prices can together offset the revenue growth from the increase in the number of devices sold by OEMs. This is likely to result in lower revenues from QTL(Qualcomm Technology Licensing) segment for the company in 2016.
  • A decline in modem chipset prices is likely to offset the revenue growth from the increase in the number of modem chipsets sold by Qualcomm. This would negatively impact the company’s chipset revenues in the year.
