Insights

Qualcomm delivered exceptional Q4 and FY2024 results with significant growth across key metrics. Q4 revenues increased 19% YoY to $10.24 billion, while EPS surged 96% to $2.59. The QCT segment, which includes chipset business, grew 18% to $8.68 billion, while licensing revenues (QTL) jumped 21% to $1.52 billion.

Notable achievements include record operating cash flow and automotive segment's fifth consecutive quarter of record revenues. The company returned $7.81 billion to shareholders through dividends and buybacks in FY2024, demonstrating strong financial discipline and shareholder commitment.

The 40% annual EPS growth and 9% revenue growth indicate robust execution and market position, particularly in high-growth segments like automotive and IoT.

The results signal Qualcomm's successful diversification beyond mobile, with automotive becoming a key growth driver. The consistent record performance in automotive revenues reflects the company's expanding footprint in connected and autonomous vehicles. Strong QTL growth indicates healthy licensing business despite market challenges.

The substantial margin expansion, evidenced by EBT growth of 83% in Q4, suggests improved operational efficiency and pricing power. The company's robust cash return policy, including $4.12 billion in share repurchases, should provide continued support for the stock price.
