Qualcomm Inc

Huawei Technologies Co. is reportedly set to release its most advanced domestically made chip in the Mate 70 series, amid ongoing U.S. sanctions.
What Happened: The new chip will power select models in Huawei's Mate 70 lineup, which is expected to launch next week, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/huaweis-chip-advances-threaten-apple-in-china-165a1e9e?mod=tech_lead_story">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter.
The launch comes as Huawei continues to increase its market share in China, where it has seen a rise in consumer demand.
In the third quarter of this year, Huawei's market share in China grew to 15.3% from 8.6% last year, positioning it as a significant competitor to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) in the high-end smartphone market.

The new chips, produced by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation or SMIC, leverage advanced technologies to improve performance and power efficiency, allowing Huawei to compete more effectively with Apple's offerings.
&#8220;The Mate 70 will continue to put more pressure on Apple in China,&#8221; said IDC vice president Bryan Ma, according to the report.
Although Huawei's chips still lag behind Apple's in terms of power efficiency, he noted that the difference may not be significant as long as users can get through the day without worrying about charging, the report noted.

Why It Matters: This development coincides with an earlier report that suggested Huawei plans to begin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42105518/huawei-to-reportedly-take-on-nvidia-with-mass-production-of-new-ai-chips-by-2025-amid-us-restrictions">mass production of its new AI chip</a>, the Ascend 910C, in early 2025, despite facing major challenges from U.S. trade restrictions.
In May earlier this year, the Joe Biden administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/05/38682654/biden-administration-tightens-grip-on-chinas-huawei-revokes-key-export-licenses-from-us-chipmakers">canceled export licenses</a> for leading U.S. semiconductor companies such as Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), blocking them from providing essential chips to Huawei.
During the same month, a report from Counterpoint Research suggested that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39107001/after-apple-huawei-takes-on-samsung-in-race-to-become-worlds-top-foldable-phone-maker-report">Huawei surpassed</a> Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) in global foldable smartphone shipments for the first quarter of 2024.
Last month, U.S. lawmakers called on the Department of Commerce to take stronger measures against Huawei&#8217;s reported efforts to evade sanctions by using a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/10/41368844/us-lawmakers-demand-tougher-action-on-huaweis-secretive-chip-network">covert network of semiconductor facilities</a>.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Apple shares increased by 0.02% to $228.56 in after-hours trading, following a 0.21% decline to $228.52 during Thursday's regular session, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

US Futures Head Lower As Nvidia Earnings Fail To Impress Investors: Expert Says Market Weakness Is 'Perfectly Normal,' But Late November Rally Is Still Possible

Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.&nbsp;is set to initiate mass production of its latest AI chip, the Ascend 910C, in early 2025, despite facing significant hurdles due to U.S. trade restrictions.
What Happened: The Chinese telecom giant has already distributed&nbsp;samples of the Ascend 910C&nbsp;to various tech firms and begun accepting orders. The chip is designed to rival those from U.S. AI chipmaker&nbsp;Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). Huawei remains a focal point in U.S.-China trade and security tensions, with Washington imposing restrictions over national security concerns, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
These U.S. curbs have impacted Huawei&#8217;s chip production, limiting its ability to achieve high yields necessary for commercial success. The Ascend 910C is produced by&nbsp;Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) using its N+2 process. However, the absence of advanced lithography tools has restricted the chip&#8217;s yield to about 20%, a source revealed.
See Also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42023396/sean-parkers-net-worth-touches-3b-from-launching-napster-to-becoming-facebook-billionaire-the-story-of-teenage-hacker-turned-entrepreneur?itm_source=parsely-api" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sean Parker&#8217;s Net Worth Touches $3B: From Launching Napster To Becoming Facebook Billionaire, The Story Of Teenage Hacker Turned Entrepreneur</a>
Huawei&#8217;s current advanced processor, the 910B, also suffers from yield issues, leading to reduced production goals. U.S. restrictions have further complicated the situation by restricting access to critical lithography technology from Dutch manufacturer ASML. Despite these obstacles, Huawei plans to prioritize strategic government and corporate orders for its new chip.
Why It Matters: The U.S. has been tightening its grip on Huawei. In May, the Biden administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/05/38682654/biden-administration-tightens-grip-on-chinas-huawei-revokes-key-export-licenses-from-us-chipmakers">revoked export licenses </a>for major American semiconductor firms like Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), preventing them from supplying crucial chips to Huawei. This marked a significant escalation in the U.S. strategy to curb Huawei&#8217;s technological rise.
In October, U.S. lawmakers urged the Department of Commerce to take tougher action against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/10/41368844/us-lawmakers-demand-tougher-action-on-huaweis-secretive-chip-network">Huawei&#8217;s alleged attempts </a>to bypass sanctions through a secretive network of semiconductor facilities. This included leveraging companies like Pengxinxu and SwaySure Technology.
Most recently, in November, the U.S. reportedly asked Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) to halt shipments of advanced chips used in AI applications to Chinese customers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41867470/us-asks-tsmc-to-stop-shipment-of-chips-used-in-ai-applications-to-customers-from-china-after-its-chip-was-found-in-huawei-ai-processor">after discovering one</a> of its chips in a Huawei AI processor.

Huawei To Reportedly Take On Nvidia With Mass Production Of New AI Chips By 2025 Amid US Restrictions

As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House, renowned economist Mohamed El-Erian is cautioning against media oversimplification of the incoming administration&#8217;s proposed tariff strategies.
What Happened: In a recent statement on X, El-Erian highlighted the intricate nature of Trump&#8217;s tariff discussions, noting that the proposed economic policies encompass at least three complex economic stages influenced by multiple factors, including trade flows, corporate pricing strategies, and geopolitical considerations.
El-Erian&#8217;s core message remains clear: Trump&#8217;s tariff debate requires sophisticated, nuanced analysis that transcends simplistic narratives. &#8220;The issue is quite complex,&#8221; he emphasized, underscoring the need for comprehensive economic understanding beyond headline rhetoric.

Trump&#8217;s proposed economic blueprint, which includes a universal tariff of up to 20% on imports and potentially up to 60% on Chinese goods, has sparked intense economic debate. Tech investor Peter Thiel suggests these tariffs could significantly impact Chinese companies while causing minimal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/42028954/peter-thiel-says-trumps-60-china-tariff-would-be-very-very-bad-for-beijing-heres-whats-at-stake">disruption to U.S. consumers</a>.

Why It Matters: Goldman Sachs economist David Mericle warns that Trump&#8217;s proposed universal tariff could push <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42042411/inflation-could-surge-to-3-if-trump-applies-universal-tariffs-goldman-sachs">inflation back to 3%</a>, potentially complicating Federal Reserve monetary strategies. 
The National Retail Federation estimates Trump&#8217;s tariff proposals could reduce annual consumer <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41737933/trump-tariff-proposed-may-cost-americans-78b-in-spending-study">spending by $78 billion</a>.
Prominent business leaders have voiced concerns. Citadel LLC CEO Ken Griffin described Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs as a &#8220;long, slippery slope&#8221; that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/42056528/gop-megadonor-ken-griffin-warns-of-slippery-slope-in-trumps-tariff-policies-sees-us-returning-to-the-business-of-business">could hamper U.S. global competitiveness</a>. 
Retailers like AutoZone and Columbia Sportswear have signaled potential price increases that would be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41871407/trumps-tariffs-deportations-and-tax-cuts-may-push-prices-higher-experts-say-its-pretty-clear?utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=site&amp;nid=42027079">passed directly to consumers</a>.
"Tariffs would create a headwind to the performance of stocks with high international revenue exposure due to the risk of retaliatory tariffs and heightened geopolitical tensions," Goldman Sachs analyst David Kostin stated.
Goldman Sachs noted that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39467825/us-election-and-tariff-prospects-set-to-threaten-internationally-exposed-stocks-gol">U.S. stocks with domestic sales focus outperformed</a> those with international exposure by 1 percentage point the day after Trump's election and by 4 pp in the following month but underperformed by 9 pp in the next 12 months.

Mohamed El-Erian Warns Against Simplistic Narratives As Trump Plans Aggressive Tariff Strategy: 'The Issue Is Quite Complex'

Several Wall Street analysts reiterated Qualcomm Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) after the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42088437/qualcomm-targets-900-billion-market-by-2030-big-bets-on-iot-and-automotive" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">2024 investor day</a>.
<ul>
<li>Cantor Fitzgerald analyst CJ Muse reiterated Qualcomm with a Neutral and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/QCOM/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$160 price target</a>.</li>
<li>KeyBanc analyst John Vinh maintained Sector Weight on Qualcomm with a price target of $165.</li>
<li>Rosenblatt analyst Kevin Cassidy reiterated a Buy on Qualcomm with a price target of $250.</li>
</ul>
Cantor Fitzgerald: At the IoT and Automotive Diversification Update Investor Day, Qualcomm outlined its plans to shift revenue reliance from handsets to higher-growth segments like Automotive, IoT, PCs, XR/AR, and Industrial applications. Muse noted that Qualcomm&#8217;s Automotive segment is a standout performer, with the company projecting over $8 billion in revenue by fiscal 2029 at a 22% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42092265/stmicroelectronics-targets-18-billion-revenue-eyes-22-24-margins-by-2028" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">STMicroelectronics Targets $20 Billion Revenue By 2030, Unveils 2027 Goals</a>
More than 80% of this forecasted revenue is supported by backlog, providing confidence in this segment&#8217;s outlook. However, IoT&#8217;s projected jump from $5.4 billion in fiscal 2024 to $14 billion in fiscal 2029 raised skepticism, mainly the PC segment target of $4 billion, which assumes a 10% market share at an average selling price of $175. Muse sees significant competitive pressure from x86-based systems, making the target aggressive.
The XR/AR revenue projection of $2 billion by fiscal 2029 appears more feasible, given partnerships with significant players like Meta, Alphabet, Google and Samsung. IDC&#8217;s forecast of a 35% CAGR for the XR market are a supporting factor. Despite the optimistic outlook for XR, overall assumptions for IoT, PC, and Industrial/Other revenue leave room for potential overestimation.
Qualcomm management maintained its long-term operating expense target at 21%-23% of revenue. The company anticipates fiscal 2029 EPS reaching $14.12, representing a 7% 5-year CAGR from $10.28 in fiscal 2024. While diversification efforts are poised to make IoT and Automotive account for 50% of total QCT revenues by fiscal 2029, Muse expressed concerns about the pace of transition, particularly with potential headwinds from Apple reducing reliance on Qualcomm&#8217;s chipsets faster than other segments can offset.
Muse projected fiscal 2025 revenue of $43.15 billion and EPS of $11.37. He expects fiscal 2026 revenue of $41.1 billion and EPS of $11.45.
KeyBanc: Qualcomm revised its Automotive revenue target to $8 billion by fiscal 2029, doubling its fiscal 2026 projection of $4 billion. This goal implies a 22% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over five years, reflecting strong momentum in this segment.
The company set an ambitious target of $4 billion in PC revenue by fiscal 2029, assuming an 11% market share. This aligns with its broader IoT goal of $14 billion, including contributions from XR, Industrial IoT, and other categories.
Within IoT, Industrial IoT is expected to generate $4 billion by fiscal 2029, translating to a 21% five-year CAGR. This growth underscores Qualcomm&#8217;s strategic shift toward high-growth verticals to reduce reliance on handset revenue.
Qualcomm anticipates mid-single-digit (MSD) long-term growth for Android handsets. However, factoring in the expected transition of Apple to its internal modems, overall QCT revenue is forecasted to grow at a low-single-digit (LSD) rate over the next several years, with a 6% five-year CAGR through fiscal 2029.
While Qualcomm presented compelling long-term growth projections across critical segments, Vinh expressed caution about the need for catalysts for an edge AI replacement cycle in handsets, PCs, and other devices. Additionally, the anticipated impact of Apple&#8217;s internal modem transition poses a significant headwind, though Qualcomm management expressed confidence in its ability to sustain growth despite these challenges.
Rosenblatt: Qualcomm presented a highly attended investor day focused on its diversification strategy first outlined in 2021, emphasizing accelerated adoption of its platforms driven by AI.
Cassidy highlighted Qualcomm&#8217;s leadership in addressing diverse markets through its energy-efficient processors, advanced connectivity, and AI capabilities. Significant revenue growth is projected across Automotive, PC, XR, and Industrial IoT.
Qualcomm set a $45 billion design win pipeline for its QCT Automotive segment, with one-third tied to Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). The company forecasts $8 billion in automotive revenue by fiscal 2029, representing a 22% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). With the total addressable market (TAM) expected to double to $100 billion by fiscal 2029, the automotive segment remains a key growth driver.
Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon X Series has achieved 2.5 times growth in design wins, with 58 platforms announced. By fiscal 2029, the company targets $4 billion in PC revenue, driven by the proliferation of AI-enabled notebooks. Qualcomm projects that 90% of PCs will incorporate AI features, with 100 million devices leveraging Copilot+ annually.
Qualcomm anticipates $4 billion in Industrial IoT revenue by fiscal 2029, capitalizing on a $50 billion market opportunity by 2029. In XR (AR, VR, and MR combined), the company expects over $2 billion in fiscal 2029 revenue, with unit volumes reaching 15 million annually.
<ul>
<li>Overall IoT revenue is expected to grow 2.5x to $14 billion by fiscal 2029. </li>
<li>By 2030, Qualcomm estimates a $900 billion TAM for connected edge devices</li>
<li>In 2024, revenue grew 9% year-over-year (Y/Y)</li>
<li>EPS increased 21% Y/Y. </li>
<li>Since fiscal 2019, revenue has doubled, and EPS has tripled, supported by a 31% CAGR in automotive revenues and double-digit growth in handsets and IoT.</li>
</ul>
Adjusted operating expenses are projected to remain at 21-23% of revenue. Qualcomm also plans low-to-mid single-digit dividend growth and share buybacks as part of its capital allocation strategy.
Qualcomm aims to achieve a balanced revenue mix, targeting a 50/50 split between the handset and non-handset segments by fiscal 2029. This strategy reduces customer concentration risk and leverages growth opportunities in emerging markets like AI-enabled PCs, automotive, and industrial IoT. By scaling AI adoption at the edge, Qualcomm solidifies its position as a leader in high-growth markets while navigating challenges in its handset business.
Cassidy projected fiscal 2025 revenue of $42.9 billion and EPS of $11.59. He expects fiscal 2026 revenue of $45.35 billion and EPS of $12.49.
Price Action: Qualcomm stock traded lower by 5.94% at $154.91 at the last check on Wednesday.

Taiwan Semiconductor is a crucial supplier to tech giants like&nbsp;Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and&nbsp;Nvidia.
The semiconductor stocks also got a hit from Edgewater Research analysts, flagging Monolithic Power Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPWR#NASDAQ">MPWR</a>), which faced a significant setback and sent its stock plunging on Monday.
The analysts noted Monolithic&#8217;s allocation to Nvidia&#8217;s Blackwell GPUs is in jeopardy due to performance problems with its Power Management ICs.
The analysts highlighted that Japanese company Renesas and German firm Infineon have stepped in, receiving rush orders, potentially replacing Monolithic in Nvidia&#8217;s B200 and GB200 SKUs.
Edgewater expressed concern that supply chain partners perceived Monolithic&#8217;s temporary solution as a stopgap measure rather than a complete fix.
Investors can gain exposure to semiconductor stocks through VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) and iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>).
