Qualcomm's AI chip deals could boost revenue beyond smartphone market expectations.

Qualcomm is currently valued like a smartphone supplier but is expanding significantly into AI and data center markets. The company expects $40 billion in non-handset revenue by 2029, with $15 billion from data centers, driven by new custom silicon deals with hyperscalers starting to generate revenue soon. Despite recent stock volatility and handset market pressure, Qualcomm's AI growth potential and diversification strategy could lead to a significant stock price increase, with a 12-month price target of $225.99, up 22% from current levels. Risks include margin pressure and competition, but the AI expansion is seen as a major growth driver.

Qualcomm shares trade at USD 178.77 on Pluang as of Oct 07, 2026 18:12 WIB, down 1.26% for the day and well below their 52-week high of USD 251.10. This price sits closer to the midpoint between the 52-week low of USD 124.07 and the high, reflecting ongoing market caution despite the company’s ambitious AI and data center growth plans. The stock’s dividend yield stands at 2.03%, with a strong buy interest on Pluang at 91%.
