The Qualcomm Sell-Down Is Overdone
Following the U.S. Commerce Department’s addition of Huawei and its affiliates to its Entity List—which prohibits the sale of certain U.S.-origin technologies to Huawei without a license—Qualcomm’s shares have sold off. While the Huawei uncertainty could impact the timing of QTL [Qualcomm Technology Licensing] negotiations, we believe there is minimal impact to QCT [actual chipsets, used in phones, for example]. In fact, we believe that Huawei is a minor customer for QCT, and we believe that Huawei’s losing share in the handset market is a net positive for Qualcomm, as that share loss is likely to be borne by handset original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, that are paying full royalties to Qualcomm.

Bloomberg•yesterdayFund Manager Who Beat 98% of Peers Dumps His Huawei Bonds
Dhiraj Bajaj, whose Lombard Odier Asia Value Bond Fund outperformed 98% of peers this year, sold the fund’s Huawei 2026 dollar notes after the Trump administration placed the company on a blacklist that curtails access to U.S. suppliers. The world’s largest provider of networking gear has become a key focus for global investors as they assess the fallout from rising tensions between China and the U.S. over everything from trade to espionage and technological dominance. While some analysts have argued that Huawei’s default risk is minimal given its large cash holdings and potential support from China’s government, Bajaj said the U.S. blacklist has raised questions about future cash flows.

In January, the chief investment officer at Kerrisdale Capital said that Qualcomm would lose the Federal Trade Commission’s antitrust case, resulting in a halving of the firm’s licensing revenue, earnings and share price, and that he’s short the stock. Adrangi’s bet on Qualcomm losing the legal fight was prescient, though his short call was four months early and, despite the recent collapse, the stock remains up 28% since then. Qualcomm, which brought in more than $5 billion in licensing revenue last year, vowed to appeal the ruling, but the process can take months if not years.

Qualcomm Leans on Appeals, Trump Help to Reverse FTC Order
The San Diego-based chipmaker is dealing with the fallout from a decision by a California federal judge, who sided with the Federal Trade Commission in a case brought in 2017 accusing the company of anticompetitive practices. Qualcomm is asking that U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh’s decision be put on hold while it pursues a rapid appeal, where it may get support from other branches of the federal government, which in the past have indicated the company’s importance to U.S. technology leadership and security outweigh questions about how it does business. Koh’s judgment this week came about a month after Qualcomm settled a worldwide legal fight with Apple Inc. The relief gained by that settlement and the hope for a future clear of costly legal entanglements, which had sent Qualcomm’s stock rallying this year, is now on hold.
