Analysis

Q4 FY2023 (Sep 2023 quarter, fiscal year end). Annual revenue $35,820M. QCT $30,816M, QTL $6,381M. 10-K now explicitly names 'AI / NPU' as a Snapdragon application processor function (upgraded from just 'AI' among a list). Hexagon NPUs now described as 'designed to support a variety of AI processing tasks for superior performance-per-watt.' Cloud AI inference renamed to 'cloud computing processing initiative' in nonreportable segments. Slight bump to 1.5% reflecting the growing prominence of NPU in Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and the Arriver ADAS AI capabilities in automotive. Math: ~2.5% of QCT ($30,816M * 0.025 / 4 = ~$193M/quarter) + minimal cloud AI. QTL 0%. ~$193M / ~$8,955M quarterly = ~2.2% of QCT-only but ~1.5% of total revenue.
