AI Brief

Q3 FY26 earnings call · Jul 29, 2026
Q3 FY26

TL;DR. Qualcomm delivered Q3 revenue at the high end of guidance at $9.9B with record automotive and accelerating non-handset diversification, but guided to a sharper-than-expected step-down in Apple share starting Q4 and warned of near-term QCT gross margin pressure from broad-based input cost increases, while raising the fiscal 2026 automotive exit run-rate outlook to ~$7B.

Bullish
  • + Raised fiscal 2026 automotive exit run-rate outlook to ~$7B from prior $6B target.
  • + QCT Automotive posted record $1.58B, up 61% YoY, with ~60% YoY growth guided for Q4.
  • + Non-handset diversification accelerating sharply, with non-handset QCT revenue growth expected to step from 24% in FY26 to >60% in FY27.
  • + Industrial design-win pipeline surpassed $7B, with over $3.5B secured this fiscal year toward the $8B FY29 industrial target.
  • + Closed Modular acquisition and completed HBC Gen 1 tape-out, with two custom-silicon data center wins set to generate revenue starting the December quarter.
Bearish
  • − Apple share materially below prior ~20% estimate, accelerating the step-down of Apple product revenues starting Q4 FY26.
  • − QCT gross margins to be slightly below historical range near term as broad-based input cost inflation pressures margins ahead of price increases flowing through.
