Analysis

Q4 FY2024 (Sep 2024 quarter, fiscal year end). Annual total revenue $38,962M. Full-year QCT $33,195M, QTL $5,571M. 10-K describes QCOM as developing 'on-device artificial intelligence (AI)' as a foundational technology, with Hexagon NPUs for 'superior performance-per-watt, thermal efficiency and battery life.' Snapdragon X Elite/Plus now shipping for Copilot+ AI PCs. Oryon CPU introduced. The FY2024 10-K notably elevates AI in the company description. Implied Q4 QCT: $33,195M - $24,518M (9-month) = $8,677M. Full-year sub-segments: Handsets $26,934M, Auto $2,463M, IoT $6,211M (derived). Q4 implied: Handsets ~$6,987M, Auto ~$601M, IoT ~$1,502M. Math: Handsets ~3.5% ($6,987M * 0.035 = $245M, reflecting growing NPU importance in premium Snapdragon 8 Gen 3) + Auto ADAS AI ~$120M ($601M * 0.20) + IoT AI ~$75M ($1,502M * 0.05, reflecting AI PC revenue) + cloud AI ~$10M = ~$250M. QTL 0%. $250M / ~$10,244M = ~2.4%, round to 2.5%.
