  Qualcomm stock is lower Thursday even after the chipmaker reported strong earnings and gave an encouraging outlook. This is what investors need to know.

Qualcomm (QCOM) experienced a significant drop in its stock price despite reporting earnings that beat expectations. The company announced its fiscal Q2 earnings with adjusted earnings per share of $2.44, surpassing the consensus estimate of $2.33, and revenue of $9.39 billion, which was above the expected $9.34 billion. However, the stock fell due to concerns over weaker-than-expected guidance for the next quarter. Qualcomm forecasted revenue between $8.8 billion and $9.6 billion, with the midpoint below the $9.22 billion that analysts had anticipated. Additionally, the company projected adjusted earnings per share to be between $2.15 and $2.35, which was also lower than the $2.23 consensus estimate. The guidance reflects ongoing challenges in the smartphone market, particularly in China, and uncertainties related to the timing of 5G upgrades and inventory adjustments by customers.
