Qualcomm Incorporated (QCOM - Free Report) just released its fiscal first-quarter financial results, posting adjusted earnings of 98 cents per share and revenues of $6.07 billion.
Currently, QCOM is a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) and is down 0.37% to $68.00 per share in trading shortly after its earnings report was released.
Qualcomm:
Beat earnings estimates. The company posted non-GAAP earnings of $0.98 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.90 per share. Factoring in a $6.0 billion tax reform charge, the company reported a loss of $4.03 per share.
Beat revenue estimates. The company saw revenue figures of $6.07 billion, beating our consensus estimate of $5.95 billion.
“Our fiscal first quarter results reflect continued strong performance in our semiconductor business, as well as continued strength in 3G/4G handset ASPs,” sad CEO Steve Mollenkopf. “We recently detailed our roadmap for value creation, outlining the significant growth potential for Qualcomm as we enter the 5G world and our products and technologies expand into attractive new markets.”
Qualcomm now expects to post Q2 revenues in the range of $4.8 billion to $5.6 billion. Non-GAAP earnings are expected to fall between $0.65 per share and $0.75 per share. This guidance is lower than what analysts expected. Our current consensus estimates are calling for earnings of $0.88 per share and revenues of $5.61 billion.
Here’s a graph that looks at Qualcomm’s recent earnings performance:
