Qualcomm Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results
Revenues $6.0 billion
GAAP EPS $0.46, Non-GAAP EPS $1.19

-Earnings Before Taxes up 23% YoY in QCT and 14% YoY in QTL-


SAN DIEGO - January 25, 2017 - Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced results for its fiscal first quarter ended December 25, 2016.

“We are pleased with the strong start to our fiscal year and the year-over-year earnings growth across both our semiconductor and licensing businesses,” said Steve Mollenkopf, CEO of Qualcomm Incorporated.  “Looking ahead, the pending NXP acquisition accelerates our strategic transformation in the high growth areas of automotive, IoT, security and networking.  We are very well positioned to lead as the semiconductor engine for the intelligent, connected world.”

Mr. Mollenkopf added, “the recent legal and governmental actions against Qualcomm are at their core driven by commercial disputes. As we have done in the past, we will vigorously defend our business model and the value of a portfolio of technologies that has been so instrumental to the success of the mobile communications industry.”

(1)
The year-over-year and sequential changes for estimated reported 3G/4G device shipments and average selling prices are calculated at the midpoints. The midpoints of the estimated ranges are used for comparison purposes only and do not indicate a higher degree of confidence in the midpoints.
(2)
Total reported device sales is the sum of all reported sales in U.S. dollars (as reported to us by our licensees) of all licensed CDMA-based, OFDMA-based
and CDMA/OFDMA multimode subscriber devices (including handsets, modules, modem cards and other subscriber devices) by our licensees during a
particular period (collectively, 3G/4G devices). The reported quarterly estimated ranges of average selling prices (ASPs) and unit shipments are determined based on the information as reported to us by our licensees during the relevant period and our own estimates of the selling prices and unit shipments for licensees that do not provide such information. Not all licensees report sales, selling prices and/or unit shipments the same way (e.g., some licensees report sales net of permitted deductions, including transportation, insurance, packing costs and other items, while other licensees report sales and then identify the amount of permitted deductions in their reports), and the way in which licensees report such information may change from time to time. In addition, certain licensees may not report (in the quarter in which they are contractually obligated to report) their sales of certain types of subscriber units, which (as a result of audits, legal actions or for other reasons) may be reported in a subsequent quarter. Accordingly, total reported device sales, estimated unit shipments and estimated ASPs for a particular period may include prior period activity that was not reported by the licensee until such particular period.
(3)
The first quarter of fiscal 2016 and 2017 are based on sales by our licensees in the September quarter as reported to us in the December quarter, and the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 is based on sales by our licensees in the June quarter as reported to us in the September quarter.


Cash and Marketable Securities
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $29.8 billion at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2017, compared to $30.6 billion a year ago and $32.4 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

Announced Agreement to Acquire NXP
On October 27, 2016, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire NXP Semiconductors N.V. for estimated total cash to be paid to shareholders of $38 billion. NXP is a leader in high-performance, mixed-signal semiconductor electronics in automotive, broad-based microcontrollers, secure identification, network processing and RF power products. The transaction is expected to close by the end of calendar 2017 and is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions and other closing conditions. We intend to fund the transaction with cash held by foreign entities, which will result in the use of a substantial portion of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, and new debt.

Return of Capital to Stockholders
During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we returned $1.2 billion to stockholders, including $784 million, or $0.53 per share, of cash dividends paid and $444 million through repurchases of 6.6 million shares of common stock. On January 12, 2017, we announced a cash dividend of $0.53 per share payable on March 22, 2017 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 1, 2017.

Effective Income Tax Rates
Our fiscal 2017 annual effective income tax rates are estimated to be approximately 22 percent for GAAP and 18 percent for Non-GAAP. The effective income tax rates for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 were 22 percent for GAAP and 19 percent for Non-GAAP. Our estimated annual and first quarter of fiscal 2017 effective income tax rates for GAAP included the tax impact of the $868 million charge related to the KFTC investigation, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Business Outlook
The following statements are forward looking, and actual results may differ materially. The “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this news release provides a description of certain risks that we face, and our most recent quarterly report on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) provides a more complete description of risks.

Our outlook does not include provisions for future asset impairments or for pending legal matters, other than future legal amounts that are probable and estimable. Further, due to their nature, certain income and expense items, such as realized investment and certain derivative gains or losses, cannot be accurately forecast. Accordingly, we only include such items in our financial outlook to the extent they are reasonably certain; however, actual results may differ materially from the outlook.

We have not included any estimates related to any proposed joint ventures or acquisitions in our second quarter of fiscal 2017 outlook.

The following table summarizes GAAP and Non-GAAP guidance based on the current outlook. The Non-GAAP outlook presented below is consistent with the presentation of Non-GAAP results included elsewhere herein.

(1)
Our guidance for diluted EPS attributable to other items for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 includes losses per share of $0.09 for acquisition-related items, $0.03 due to the recognition of a tax benefit to reconcile the Non-GAAP tax provision to the total GAAP tax provision primarily resulting from the KFTC charge recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and $0.01 for other items.
(2)
Our guidance range for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 total reported device sales reflects estimated 3G/4G total reported device sales that we currently expect to be reported to us, which includes an estimate of some prior period activity (i.e., devices shipped in prior periods) that may be reported to us.

Sums may not equal total due to rounding.

In fiscal 2017, the estimated annual effective tax rate for the “Other Items” column includes tax benefits of $56 million for the tax effect of acquisition-related items in EBT and $19 million for the combined tax effect of other items in EBT.

Conference Call
Qualcomm’s fiscal first quarter 2017 earnings conference call will be broadcast live on January 25, 2017, beginning at 1:45 p.m. Pacific Time (PT) at http://investor.qualcomm.com/events.cfm. This conference call will include a discussion of “Non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and information reconciling these Non-GAAP financial measures to the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as other financial and statistical information to be discussed on the conference call, will be posted at www.qualcomm.com/investor immediately prior to the commencement of the call. An audio replay will be available at http://investor.qualcomm.com/events.cfm and via telephone following the live call for 30 days thereafter. To listen to the replay via telephone, U.S. callers may dial (855) 859-2056 and international callers may dial (404) 537-3406. Callers should use reservation number 48860663.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Non-GAAP 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, “Non-GAAP” is not a term defined by GAAP, and as a result, the Company’s measure of Non-GAAP results might be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations between GAAP and Non-GAAP results are presented herein.

The Company uses the Non-GAAP financial information: (i) to evaluate, assess and benchmark the Company’s operating results on a consistent and comparable basis; (ii) to measure the performance and



Qualcomm Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results                     Page 8 of 13


efficiency of the Company’s ongoing core operating businesses, including the QCT (Qualcomm CDMA Technologies) and QTL (Qualcomm Technology Licensing) segments; and (iii) to compare the performance and efficiency of these segments against competitors. Non-GAAP measurements used by the Company include revenues, cost of revenues, R&D expenses, SG&A expenses, other income or expenses, operating income, interest expense, net investment income, income or earnings before income taxes, effective tax rate, net income and diluted earnings per share. The Company 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 Non-GAAP information. In addition, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors uses certain Non-GAAP financial measures in establishing portions of the performance-based incentive compensation programs for our executive officers. The Company presents Non-GAAP financial information to provide greater transparency to investors with respect to its use of such information in financial and operational decision-making. This Non-GAAP financial information also is used by institutional investors and analysts in evaluating the Company’s business and assessing trends and future expectations.

Non-GAAP information used by management excludes QSI and certain share-based compensation, acquisition-related items, tax items and other items.
QSI is excluded because the Company expects to exit its strategic investments in the foreseeable future, and the effects of fluctuations in the value of such investments and realized gains or losses are viewed by management as unrelated to the Company’s operational performance.
Share-based compensation expense primarily relates to restricted stock units. Management believes that excluding non-cash share-based compensation from the Non-GAAP financial information allows management and investors to make additional comparisons of the operating activities of the Company’s ongoing core businesses over time and with respect to other companies.
Certain other items are excluded because management views such expenses as unrelated to the operating activities of the Company’s ongoing core businesses, as follows:
Acquisition-related items include amortization of certain intangible assets, recognition of the step-up of inventories to fair value and the related tax effects of these items, as well as any tax effects from restructuring the ownership of such acquired assets. Additionally, the Company excludes expenses related to the termination of contracts that limit the use of the acquired intellectual property, third-party acquisition and integration services costs and costs related to temporary debt facilities and letters of credit executed prior to the close of an acquisition.



Qualcomm Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results                     Page 9 of 13


The Company excludes certain other items that management views as unrelated to the Company’s ongoing business, such as major restructuring and restructuring-related costs, goodwill and indefinite- and long-lived asset impairments and litigation settlements and/or damages.
Certain tax items that are unrelated to the fiscal year in which they are recorded are excluded in order to provide a clearer understanding of the Company’s ongoing Non-GAAP tax rate and after tax earnings.

These and other risks are set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal first quarter ended December 25, 2016 filed with the SEC.
