Why the gap?

At $182.09 the market is pricing QUALCOMM INC/DE as if revenue grows 26.9% a year. This valuation assumes it grows 9.8% a year. That single disagreement accounts for most of the distance between the two numbers — which makes it the first thing worth auditing.

What drives the base case

All three cases →

The latest weakness is concentrated in handsets, where customer inventory and memory costs are weighing on demand. Automotive and connected-device revenue are still expanding, and Qualcomm is investing heavily to add data-center computing. This case assumes those newer businesses scale meaningfully but fall short of the company's full ambition, allowing profitability to recover without returning immediately to its recent peak.
