      SAN DIEGO, July 18, 2012 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and innovator of advanced wireless technologies, products and services, today announced results for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 ended June 24, 2012.

      "Adoption of 3G and 3G/4G technologies continues around the world, driving strong year-over-year growth in our chipset and licensing businesses this quarter," said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, chairman and CEO of Qualcomm.  "Looking forward, our growth estimates for 3G/4G device shipments in calendar 2012 have moderated slightly, and we now expect the demand profile of the calendar year to be more back-end loaded as new devices are launched for the holiday season.  Although our outlook for semiconductor volumes in the fiscal fourth quarter has been reduced from our prior expectations, we are ramping supply of our 28 nanometer chipsets to help enable what we expect to be a strong December quarter for our semiconductor business."

      Third Quarter Results (GAAP)*

      • Revenues: (1) $4.63 billion, up 28 percent year-over-year (y-o-y) and down 6 percent sequentially.
      • Operating income: (1) $1.38 billion, up 24 percent y-o-y and down 9 percent sequentially.
      • Net income: (2) $1.21 billion, up 17 percent y-o-y and down 46 percent sequentially.
      • Diluted earnings per share: (2) $0.69, up 13 percent y-o-y and down 46 percent sequentially. 
      • Effective tax rate: (1) 24 percent for the quarter.
      • Operating cash flow:  $922 million, down 27 percent y-o-y; 20 percent of revenues.
      • Return of capital to stockholders:  $802 million, including $429 million, or $0.25 per share, of cash dividends paid, and $373 million to repurchase 6.6 million shares of our common stock.

      (1) The results of FLO TV are presented as discontinued operations. Revenues, operating expenses, operating income, earnings before tax (EBT) and effective tax rates throughout this news release are from continuing operations (i.e., before discontinued operations and the adjustment for noncontrolling interests), unless otherwise stated.

      (2) Net income and diluted earnings per share throughout this news release are attributable to Qualcomm (i.e., after discontinued operations and adjustment for noncontrolling interests), unless otherwise stated.

      Non-GAAP Third Quarter Results*

      Non-GAAP results exclude the Qualcomm Strategic Initiatives (QSI) segment, certain share-based compensation, certain acquisition-related items and certain tax items. 

      • Revenues:  $4.63 billion, up 28 percent y-o-y and down 6 percent sequentially.
      • Operating income:  $1.72 billion, up 23 percent y-o-y and down 10 percent sequentially.
      • Net income:  $1.49 billion, up 20 percent y-o-y and down 16 percent sequentially.
      • Diluted earnings per share:  $0.85, up 16 percent y-o-y and down 16 percent sequentially.  Excludes $0.01 loss per share attributable to the QSI segment, $0.12 loss per share attributable to certain share-based compensation and $0.03 loss per share attributable to certain acquisition-related items.
      • Effective tax rate:  23 percent for the quarter. 
      • Free cash flow (defined as net cash from operating activities less capital expenditures):  $658 million, down 43 percent y-o-y; 14 percent of revenues.

      Detailed reconciliations between results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and Non-GAAP results are included within this news release.  

      * Note:  The following should be considered with regard to the above results and comparisons - the second quarter of fiscal 2012 GAAP results included $761 million in earnings, net of income taxes, for discontinued operations (as a result of a $1.2 billion gain associated with the sale of substantially all of our 700 MHz spectrum), as compared to a $3 million loss, net of income taxes, for discontinued operations in the third quarter of fiscal 2012.  Additionally, the third quarter of fiscal 2012 GAAP and Non-GAAP results included Qualcomm Atheros, Inc., which was acquired on May 24, 2011, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2011 GAAP and Non-GAAP results which only included Qualcomm Atheros, Inc. from the date of the acquisition.

      Third Quarter Key Business Metrics

      • MSM™ chip shipments:  141 million units, up 18 percent y-o-y and down 7 percent sequentially.
      • March quarter total reported device sales:  approximately $47.8 billion, up 31 percent y-o-y and down 8 percent sequentially.
        • March quarter estimated 3G/4G device shipments:  approximately 206 to 211 million units, at an estimated average selling price of approximately $226 to $232 per unit.   

      Cash and Marketable Securities

      Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $26.5 billion at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2012, compared to $20.2 billion a year ago and $26.6 billion at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2012.  On July 6, 2012, we announced a cash dividend of $0.25 per share payable on September 26, 2012 to stockholders of record as of September 7, 2012.  Since June 24, 2012, we repurchased and retired 11.3 million shares of our common stock for $617 million.

      Non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expenses increased 26 percent y-o-y primarily due to an increase in investments in the development of integrated circuit products (including connectivity products), next-generation technologies and other initiatives to support the acceleration of advanced wireless products and services.

      Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased 16 percent y-o-y primarily due to increases in costs relating to legal matters, employee-related expenses and patent-related expenses.    

      Effective Income Tax Rates

      Our estimated fiscal 2012 effective income tax rates increased to approximately 20 percent for both GAAP and Non-GAAP, as compared to our prior estimates of approximately 18 percent for GAAP and approximately 18 to 19 percent for Non-GAAP, primarily due to changes in our estimates related to foreign earnings taxed at rates that are less than the United States federal tax rate.  As a result, the third quarter GAAP tax rate of 24 percent and Non-GAAP tax rate of 23 percent were higher than the expected annual effective tax rates.  

      Qualcomm Strategic Initiatives

      The QSI segment makes strategic investments, many of which are in early-stage companies, and holds wireless spectrum.  QSI also includes the discontinued operations of our FLO TV business. GAAP results for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 included a $0.01 loss per share for the QSI segment. 

      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 annual and quarterly reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) provide 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 business outlook to the extent they are reasonably certain; however, actual results may vary materially from the business outlook.

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

      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 multimode CDMA/OFDMA 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 selling prices net of permitted deductions, such as transportation, insurance and packing costs, while other licensees report selling prices 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.  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.

      Fiscal 2012 guidance for QSI and GAAP includes $0.44 diluted earnings per share related to a $1.2 billion gain associated with the sale of substantially all of our 700 MHz spectrum, which was recognized in discontinued operations in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and was excluded from Non-GAAP results.  

      (3)

      The midpoints of the estimated calendar year ranges are identified for comparison purposes only and do not indicate a higher degree of confidence in the midpoints.

      Sums may not equal totals due to rounding.

      Non-GAAP reconciling items related to revenues consist primarily of other nonreportable segment revenues less intersegment eliminations.  Non-GAAP reconciling items related to earnings before taxes consist primarily of certain costs of equipment and services revenues, research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses, other operating expenses and certain investment income or losses and interest expense that are not allocated to the segments for management reporting purposes; nonreportable segment results; and the elimination of intersegment profit.

      At fiscal year end, the sum of the quarterly tax provisions (benefits) for each column equals the annual tax provision (benefit) for each column computed in accordance with GAAP.  In interim quarters, the sum of these provisions (benefits) may not equal the total GAAP tax provision, and starting in fiscal 2012, this difference is allocated to tax provisions (benefits) among the columns.  In interim quarters of prior years, it was included in QSI because variability in QSI results was considered the primary driver of the difference.

      (3)

      In addition to our historical practice of excluding acquired in-process research and development expenses, starting with acquisitions completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, Non-GAAP results also exclude other items related to acquisitions.  During fiscal 2012, acquisition-related items consisted of amortization of certain intangible assets.

       During fiscal 2011, we shut down the FLO TV business and network.  The results of FLO TV are presented as discontinued operations.

      Conference Call

      Qualcomm's third quarter of fiscal 2012 earnings conference call will be broadcast live on July 18, 2012, beginning at 1:45 p.m. Pacific Time (PT) at www.qualcomm.com/investor.  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 GAAP reconciliation information, as well as the other material financial and statistical information to be discussed on the conference call, will be posted at www.qualcomm.com/investor immediately prior to commencement of the call.  An audio replay will be available at www.qualcomm.com/investor and via telephone for 30 days shortly following the live call.  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 94423621.

      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 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 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 outside the Company.  Non-GAAP measurements of the following financial data are used by the Company:  revenues, cost of revenues, R&D expenses, SG&A expenses, other 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.  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.  As a result, management compensation decisions and the review of executive compensation by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors focus primarily on Non-GAAP financial measures applicable to the Company and its business segments.  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.

      Non-GAAP information used by management excludes the QSI segment, certain share-based compensation, certain acquisition-related items and certain tax items.  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 and realized gains or losses are viewed by management as unrelated to the Company's operational performance.  Certain share-based compensation is excluded because management has concluded that such expenses should not be considered when assessing operational performance as they are deemed to be unrelated to the operating activities of the Company's ongoing core businesses.  Further, share-based compensation expense relates primarily to restricted stock and stock option awards.  The fair values of share-based awards are affected by factors that are variable on each grant date, which may include the Company's stock price, stock market volatility, expected award life, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend payouts in future years.  In addition to its historical practice of excluding acquired in-process research and development expenses from Non-GAAP results, the Company began excluding amortization of certain intangible assets, recognition of the step-up of inventories to fair value and the related tax effects of these items starting with acquisitions completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, as well as any tax effects of restructuring the ownership of such acquired assets.  These certain acquisition-related items are excluded and no longer allocated to the Company's segments because management has concluded that such expenses should not be considered when assessing segment performance as they are deemed to be unrelated to the operating activities of the Company's ongoing core businesses.  In addition, these charges are significantly impacted by the size and timing of acquisitions, potentially obscuring period to period comparisons of the Company's operating businesses.  Certain tax items that were recorded in each fiscal year presented, but that 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 Non-GAAP tax rate and after tax earnings.  However, the Company excludes any benefit resulting from the retroactive extensions of the federal R&D tax credit from Non-GAAP results because the Company does not include the potential extension of the credit in its business outlook due to uncertainty as to whether and when the federal R&D tax credit will be retroactively extended. 

      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 stockholder value.  The Company believes that this presentation is useful in evaluating its operating performance and financial strength.  In addition, management uses this measure to evaluate the Company's performance and to compare its operating performance with other companies in the industry.

      At fiscal year end, the sum of the quarterly tax provisions (benefits) for each column equals the annual tax provision (benefit) for each column computed in accordance with GAAP. In interim quarters, the sum of these provisions (benefits) may not equal the total GAAP tax provision, and this difference is allocated to tax provisions (benefits) among the columns.  

      Sums may not equal totals due to rounding.
