Qualcomm Announces Second Quarter Fiscal 2009 Results
SAN DIEGO, Apr. 27 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Revenues $2.5 Billion, Loss Per Share $0.18
Pro Forma Loss Per Share $0.03
$1.26 Billion of Operating Cash Flow, up 33% year-over-year; Raising Fiscal
2009 Revenue Guidance; Global Resolution with Broadcom
Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and innovator of
advanced wireless technologies, products and services, today announced results
for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 ended March 29, 2009. While second quarter
fiscal 2009 revenues were at the high end of prior guidance, strong operating
results were offset by costs related to a settlement and patent agreement with
Broadcom Corporation. In addition, results for the quarter were adversely
impacted by other-than-temporary impairments to marketable securities.
Second Quarter Results (GAAP)
-- Revenues: $2.46 billion, compared to $2.61 billion in the prior year
and $2.52 billion in the prior quarter.
-- Operating loss: $10 million, which reflects a $748 million charge for
litigation settlement related to the settlement and patent agreement
with Broadcom, compared to operating income of $813 million in the prior
year and $745 million in the prior quarter.
-- Net loss: $289 million, compared to net income of $766 million in the
prior year and $341 million in the prior quarter.
-- Diluted loss per share: $0.18, compared to diluted earnings per share
(EPS) of $0.47 in the prior year and $0.20 in the prior quarter.
-- Effective tax rate: negative 186 percent for the quarter, primarily
due to the impact of the discrete tax benefit related to the litigation
settlement charge associated with the settlement and patent agreement
with Broadcom at a rate less than the United States federal rate.
Fiscal 2009 estimated tax rate of approximately 35 percent.
-- Estimated share-based compensation: $145 million, net of tax, compared
to $88 million in the prior year and $99 million in the prior quarter.
-- Operating cash flow: $1.26 billion, up 33 percent year-over-year; 51
percent of revenues.
-- Return of capital to stockholders: $528 million, or $0.32 per share of
cash dividends paid (relating to dividends declared in the first and
second quarters).
Pro Forma Second Quarter Results
Pro forma results exclude the Qualcomm Strategic Initiatives (QSI) segment,
certain estimated share-based compensation, certain tax items related to prior
years and acquired in-process research and development (R&D) expense.
-- Revenues: $2.45 billion, compared to $2.60 billion in the prior year
and $2.51 billion in the prior quarter.
-- Operating income: $214 million, which reflects a $748 million charge
for litigation settlement related to the settlement and patent
agreement with Broadcom, compared to $1.02 billion in the prior year
and $986 million in the prior quarter.
-- Net loss: $46 million, compared to net income of $894 million in the
prior year and $520 million in the prior quarter.
-- Diluted loss per share: $0.03, compared to diluted EPS of $0.54 in the
prior year and $0.31 in the prior quarter. The current quarter
excludes $0.03 loss per share attributable to the QSI segment, $0.09
loss per share attributable to certain estimated share-based
compensation and $0.02 loss per share attributable to the adjustment of
our net deferred tax assets to reflect the future impact of the
recently enacted California budget legislation.
-- Effective tax rate: 131 percent for the quarter, primarily due to the
impact of the discrete tax benefit related to the litigation settlement
charge associated with the settlement and patent agreement with
Broadcom at a rate less than the United States federal rate. Fiscal
2009 estimated tax rate of approximately 31 percent.
-- Free cash flow: $1.15 billion, up 49 percent year-over-year; 47
percent of revenues (defined as net cash from operating activities less
capital expenditures).
Detailed reconciliations between results reported in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and pro forma results are
included at the end of this news release. Prior period reconciliations are
"Global demand for 3G-enabled products and services remains strong
despite the current economic environment," said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, chairman
and CEO of Qualcomm. "Our second quarter revenues were at the high end of
prior guidance, and I am pleased with the strong operating performance of our
business. The recent settlement with Broadcom will resolve all pending
litigation between the parties, and while this settlement adversely impacted
our second quarter results, eliminating uncertainty, employee distraction and
cost related to protracted litigation is a positive for our stockholders,
customers, partners and the wireless industry."
"While the business environment remains uncertain and the continued
distress in global financial markets resulted in additional impairments to
our marketable securities, we believe the CDMA inventory channel has
stabilized, and we are seeing some replenishment of products driven primarily
by emerging markets. We continue to grow key research and development
programs to further our technology leadership and drive future growth, while
closely managing SG&A expenses. Demand for CDMA-based products and services
remains healthy, and our calendar year 2009 device shipment estimate remains
unchanged."
Cash and Marketable Securities
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled
approximately $14.0 billion at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2009,
compared to $13.1 billion at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and
$10.6 billion a year ago. During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, we
increased our quarterly dividend from $0.16 to $0.17 per share. On April 8,
2009, we announced a cash dividend of $0.17 per share, payable on June 26,
2009 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 29, 2009.
The distress in global financial markets has continued to affect the
value of our marketable securities. As a result, we determined that $204
million, or approximately 1 percent of the recorded values of our cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities at March 29, 2009, were
other-than-temporarily impaired. In addition, at March 29, 2009 and April 17,
2009, we had net unrealized losses on marketable securities of $898 million
and $634 million, respectively.

Pro forma R&D expenses increased 7 percent year-over-year, primarily due
to an increase in costs related to the development of integrated circuit
products, next-generation CDMA and OFDMA technologies, the expansion of our
intellectual property portfolio and other initiatives to support the
acceleration of advanced wireless products and services. QSI R&D expenses
were related to our FLO TV(TM) subsidiary, formerly MediaFLO USA.

Pro forma selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased
by 13 percent year-over-year, a majority of which is due to cost reduction
activities. QSI SG&A expenses were primarily related to FLO TV.
Litigation Settlement
The second quarter of fiscal 2009 operating expenses included a $748
million litigation settlement charge related to a settlement and patent
agreement with Broadcom. The agreement provides for the receipt of certain
assets in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 and will resolve all pending
litigation between the parties.
Effective Income Tax Rate
Our fiscal 2009 effective income tax rates are estimated to be 35 percent
for GAAP and 31 percent for pro forma. The second quarter effective tax rates
of negative 186 percent for GAAP and 131 percent for pro forma differ from
the annual rates due to the impact of the discrete tax benefit related to the
litigation settlement charge associated with the settlement and patent
agreement with Broadcom at a rate less than the United States federal rate.
In addition, the second quarter GAAP effective tax rate differs from the
estimated annual effective tax rate due to amounts recorded during the
quarter to adjust our net deferred tax assets to reflect the future impact of
California budget legislation enacted February 20, 2009.
Qualcomm Strategic Initiatives
The QSI segment is composed of our strategic investments, including our
FLO TV subsidiary. GAAP results for the second quarter of fiscal 2009
included a $0.03 loss per share for the QSI segment. The second quarter of
fiscal 2009 QSI results included $86 million in operating expenses, primarily
related to FLO TV.
Business Outlook
The following statements are forward looking and actual results may
differ materially. The "Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" at the end
of 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.
We expect the global financial crisis and resulting slowdown in the
worldwide economy to continue to cause lower demand for CDMA-based products
in various regions. We expect a greater mix of lower-priced CDMA-based
products for emerging markets to impact our financial results for the second
half of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second half of fiscal 2008. In
addition, the financial crisis has had, and may continue to have, an impact
on the value of our marketable securities and net investment income (loss).
While we do not forecast impairments, we do have unrealized losses on
marketable securities that could be recognized in future periods if market
conditions do not improve. Given the unprecedented daily market volatility
and the significant judgments involved, accurately forecasting
other-than-temporary impairments associated with our marketable securities is
extremely difficult and actual results could vary materially. As a result,
while we are providing revenue, operating income and our other standard
guidance, we are not providing earnings per share guidance.
Moreover, our outlook does not include provisions for the consequences of
injunctions or significant possible damages related to litigation matters,
unless damages or injunctions have been awarded by a court. In addition, due
to their nature, certain income and expense items, such as realized
investment gains or losses, gains and losses on certain derivative
instruments or asset impairments, cannot be accurately forecast. Accordingly,
we exclude forecasts of such items from our business outlook, and actual
results may vary materially from the business outlook if we incur any such
income or expense items.
The following table summarizes GAAP and pro forma guidance based on the
current business outlook. The pro forma business outlook provided below is
presented consistent with the presentation of pro forma results elsewhere
herein.
The following estimates are approximations and are based on the current
business outlook:

(1) Pro forma reconciling items related to revenues consist primarily
of other nonreportable segment revenues less intersegment
eliminations. Pro forma reconciling items related to earnings
before taxes consist primarily of certain investment income or
losses, research and development expenses and marketing expenses
that are not allocated to the segments for management reporting
purposes, nonreportable segment results and the elimination of
intersegment profit.
(2) The second quarter of fiscal 2009 included a $748 million
litigation settlement charge related to a settlement and patent
agreement with Broadcom.
(3) Certain share-based compensation is included in operating expenses
as part of employee-related costs but is not allocated to the
Company's segments as such costs are not considered relevant by
management in evaluating segment performance.
(4) During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company recorded a
tax expense related to the adjustment of net deferred tax assets that
were recorded in prior years to reflect the future impact of
California budget legislation enacted on February 20, 2009.
(5) At fiscal year-end, the sum of the quarterly tax provisions for
each column, including QSI, equals the annual tax provisions for each
column computed in accordance with GAAP. In interim
quarters, the tax provision for the QSI operating segment is
computed by subtracting the pro forma tax provision, the tax
items column and the tax provisions related to estimated share-
based compensation and in-process R&D from the GAAP tax
provision.

Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM) is a leader in developing
and delivering innovative digital wireless communications products and
services based on CDMA and other advanced technologies. Headquartered in San

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company presents pro forma financial information that is used by
management (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. Pro forma measurements of the following financial data
are used by the Company's management: revenues, R&D expenses, SG&A expenses,
total operating expenses, operating income, net investment income (loss),
income before income taxes, effective tax rate, net income (loss), diluted
earnings (loss) per share, operating cash flow and free cash flow. Management
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 pro forma 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 pro forma financial measures applicable
to the Company and its business segments.
Pro forma information used by management excludes the QSI segment,
certain estimated share-based compensation, certain tax items related to
prior years and acquired in-process R&D. 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 are viewed by
management as unrelated to the Company's operational performance. Estimated
share-based compensation, other than amounts related to share-based awards
granted under a bonus program that may result in the issuance of unrestricted
shares of the Company's common stock, is excluded because management views
such share-based compensation as unrelated to the Company's operational
performance. Moreover, it is generally not an expense that requires or will
require cash payment by the Company. Further, share-based compensation
related to options is affected by factors that are subject to change,
including the Company's stock price, stock market volatility, expected option
life, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend payouts in future years.
Certain tax items related to prior years are excluded in order to provide a
clearer understanding of the Company's ongoing pro forma tax rate and after
tax earnings. The Company decided to include the benefit of the retroactive
extension of the federal research and development tax credit in pro forma
results starting in fiscal 2009 because it recurs with relative frequency and
would have been included in the Company's pro forma results for the prior
year if it had been reenacted in the prior fiscal year. Acquired in-process
R&D is excluded because such expense is viewed by management as unrelated to
the operating activities of the Company's ongoing core businesses.
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 shareholder 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, to value the Company and to compare its operating
performance with other companies in the industry.
The non-GAAP pro forma 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, "pro
forma" is not a term defined by GAAP, and, as a result, the Company's measure
of pro forma results might be different than similarly titled measures used
by other companies. Reconciliations between GAAP results and pro forma
results are presented herein.

(a) The second quarter of fiscal 2009 included a $748 million
litigation settlement charge related to a settlement and patent
agreement with Broadcom.
(b) Included $199 million in other-than-temporary losses on
investments, which were not part of the Company's strategic
investment portfolio, $2 million in interest expense, partially
offset by $121 million in interest and dividend income related to
cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and $13 million
gain on derivatives.
(c) Included $12 million in equity in losses of investees, $10 million
in other-than-temporary losses on investments and $2 million in
interest expense.
(d) The second quarter effective tax rates of negative 186% for GAAP
and 131% for pro forma differ from the annual rates due to the impact
of the discrete tax benefit related to the expense
associated with the settlement and patent agreement with Broadcom
at a rate less than the United States federal rate.
(e) During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company recorded a
tax expense related the adjustment of net deferred tax assets that
were recorded in prior years to reflect the future impact of
California budget legislation enacted on February 20, 2009.
(f) At fiscal year-end, the sum of the quarterly tax provisions for
each column, including QSI, equals the annual tax provisions for
each column computed in accordance with GAAP. In interim quarters,
the tax provision for the QSI operating segment is computed by
subtracting the pro forma tax provision, the tax items column and the
tax provisions related to estimated share-based
compensation and in-process R&D from the GAAP tax provision.

$13 million in equity in losses of investees and $4 million in

(d) The first six months of fiscal 2009 GAAP and pro forma effective
tax rates were approximately 85% and 44%, respectively, are higher
than the estimated annual rates of 35% and 31%, respectively,
primarily due to the impact of the discrete tax benefit related to
