我們很高興在充滿挑戰的環境中報告另一個出色的季度,因為我們繼續執行我們的優先事項,包括 5G 採用、收入多元化和運營槓桿。
Our third quarter results were above the high end of our guidance with non-GAAP revenues of $8 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $1.92.
我們第三季度的業績高於我們指導的高端,非 GAAP 收入為 80 億美元,非 GAAP 每股收益為 1.92 美元。
These results reflect 63% year-over-year increase in non-GAAP revenues and more than doubling of EPS, driven by strength across QCT and QTL including a partial recovery from the impact of COVID in the year ago period.
這些結果反映了非 GAAP 收入同比增長 63%,每股收益增長了一倍以上,這得益於 QCT 和 QTL 的實力,包括從去年同期 COVID 的影響中部分恢復。
QTL revenues of $1.5 billion and EBT margins of 71% were above the midpoint of our guidance.
15 億美元的 QTL 收入和 71% 的 EBT 利潤率高於我們指導的中點。
These results reflect the impact of a stronger mix offset by lower-than-expected units in China and India.
這些結果反映了中國和印度低於預期的單位抵消了更強大的組合的影響。
QCT revenues of $6.5 billion and EBT margins of 28% were above the high end of our guidance.
QCT 的收入為 65 億美元,EBT 利潤率為 28%,高於我們指導的上限。

我們不斷增加的設計獲勝管道現在使我們有望超過上一個投資者日制定的 2024 年收入目標。
Turning to our guidance for handset units and fourth fiscal quarter.
轉向我們對手機部門和第四財季的指導。
For calendar 2021, we're maintaining our forecast for high single-digit growth for global 3G, 4G, 5G handsets, including 450 million to 550 million 5G handsets.
對於 2021 日曆年,我們維持對全球 3G、4G、5G 手機(包括 4.5 億至 5.5 億部 5G 手機)的高個位數增長的預測。
Given the strong adoption of 5G in developed regions in China, we have a bias towards the high end of our 5G forecast.
鑑於 5G 在中國發達地區的廣泛採用,我們偏向於 5G 預測的高端。
In the fourth fiscal quarter, we are forecasting revenues of $8.4 billion to $9.2 billion and non-GAAP EPS of $2.15 to $2.35.
在第四財季,我們預計收入為 84 億美元至 92 億美元,非 GAAP 每股收益為 2.15 美元至 2.35 美元。

在 QCT,我們預計收入為 70 億美元至 75 億美元,EBT 利潤率為 29% 至 31%。
At the midpoint, this implies year-over-year revenue growth of 46% and EBT dollar growth of 114%.
從中點來看,這意味著收入同比增長 46%,EBT 美元增長 114%。
The strength of our QCT forecast reflects sequential growth across all revenue streams, including premium and high-tier device launches and operating leverage benefit from extending our mobile technology and investments across IoT and automotive.
我們 QCT 預測的優勢反映了所有收入流的連續增長,包括高端和高端設備的發布以及我們在物聯網和汽車領域擴展移動技術和投資所帶來的運營槓桿收益。
Lastly, we anticipate non-GAAP combined R&D and SG&A expenses to grow 2% to 3% sequentially.
最後,我們預計非 GAAP 合併研發和 SG&A 費用將連續增長 2% 至 3%。
Based on the midpoints of our fourth quarter guidance, I would like to emphasize some key metrics for fiscal 2021.
根據我們第四季度指引的中點,我想強調 2021 財年的一些關鍵指標。
We expect non-GAAP EPS of $8.24, nearly doubling relative to fiscal 2020.
我們預計非 GAAP 每股收益為 8.24 美元,相對於 2020 財年幾乎翻了一番。
Within QCT, we expect year-over-year revenue growth of $10 billion and operating margin expansion from 17% in fiscal '20 to 28% in fiscal '21.
在 QCT 內部,我們預計收入同比增長 100 億美元,營業利潤率從 20 財年的 17% 擴大到 21 財年的 28%。

隨著我們對多元化的持續關注,我們預測射頻前端、物聯網和汽車的總收入將從 20 財年的 60 億美元增長到 21 財年的 100 億美元。
We expect to exit the fiscal year with a strong product road map, expanded design win pipeline and increased customer traction.
我們希望以強大的產品路線圖、擴大的設計獲勝管道和增加的客戶吸引力結束本財年。
Before I finish my prepared remarks, I'd like to highlight a couple items.
在我完成準備好的發言之前,我想強調幾個項目。
As part of our ongoing ESG efforts, we recently started purchasing 100% renewable solar energy for our San Diego headquarters, which will significantly reduce our annual greenhouse gas emissions.
作為我們正在進行的 ESG 工作的一部分,我們最近開始為我們的聖地亞哥總部採購 100% 可再生太陽能,這將顯著減少我們每年的溫室氣體排放量。
Lastly, we'll be hosting our Investor Day in New York on November 16, where we will provide an update on our long-term strategy and financial outlook.
最後,我們將於 11 月 16 日在紐約舉辦投資者日,屆時我們將提供有關我們長期戰略和財務前景的最新信息。

Congratulations on the strong results.
祝賀你取得了優異的成績。
I just wanted to focus on the QCT margins.
我只想關注 QCT 利潤率。
While June is seasonally a softer quarter with Apple back in the model, the margins came in above your guidance and you're guiding to 30% sequentially.
雖然 6 月是一個季節性疲軟的季度,Apple 重新回歸模型,但利潤率高於您的指導,並且您的指導順序為 30%。
Could you, Akash, maybe provide any estimates or supply constraints or expedited shipments?
Akash,您能否提供任何估算或供應限製或加急發貨?
Did that adversely impact guidance at all?
這是否對指導產生了不利影響?
And is 28% EBT margins, is that now good to think of as a floor?
28% 的 EBT 利潤率,現在可以將其視為底線嗎?
And if not, what are some puts and takes that might move it lower over time?
如果不是,那麼隨著時間的推移可能會降低它的一些看跌期權和看跌期權是什麼?
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Sure, Mike.
當然,邁克。
Thanks for the question.
謝謝你的問題。
Really, when you look at our operating leverage performance in the year, we're pretty happy with the way we've seen the operating margin expansion with revenue growth.
真的,當你看看我們今年的經營槓桿表現時,我們對我們看到營業利潤率隨著收入增長而擴大的方式感到非常滿意。
If you look at what happened in the third quarter, we had a guidance midpoint of 25%.
如果你看看第三季度發生的事情,我們的指導中點為 25%。
We came in at 28%.
我們進來了 28%。
And so that's on the strength largely of revenue coming in higher and then strong gross margin performance as well.
因此,這主要是由於收入的增加以及毛利率的強勁表現。
And then now we are forecasting a midpoint of 30% in the fourth fiscal quarter.
然後現在我們預測第四財季的中點為 30%。
So really, when you think about it, going forward, we plan our margins around revenue scale and R&D investments.
所以真的,當你考慮它時,展望未來,我們會圍繞收入規模和研發投資來規劃我們的利潤率。
And the trick really for us is to optimize those 2. As we mentioned in our prepared remarks, as we exit the fiscal year, we feel like we're in a very strong position from a design win perspective to continue to grow revenues.
對我們來說真正的訣竅是優化那些 2。正如我們在準備好的評論中提到的那樣,當我們退出本財政年度時,我們覺得從設計獲勝的角度來看我們處於非常有利的地位,可以繼續增加收入。
And as we optimize investments against it, I think we have an opportunity to continue to expand our operating margins.
當我們針對它優化投資時,我認為我們有機會繼續擴大我們的營業利潤率。
Thomas Michael Walkley - MD & Senior Equity Analyst
Thomas Michael Walkley - MD & Senior Equity Analyst
Great.

And just for my follow-up, maybe for Cristiano, just focusing on the IoT business, you have an impressive 83% year-over-year growth.
就我的後續行動而言,也許對於 Cristiano 來說,只關注物聯網業務,你就有了令人印象深刻的 83% 的同比增長。
Maybe you're going to save this for the Analyst Day, but how should we think about what's a reasonable CAGR for this business?
也許您打算將其保存到分析師日,但我們應該如何考慮該業務的合理 CAGR 是多少?
And how much of the business today is 5G and what could 5G do in terms of growing the IoT business?
今天有多少業務是 5G 以及 5G 在發展物聯網業務方面可以做什麼?
Cristiano Renno Amon - President and CEO
Cristiano Renno Amon - President and CEO
Thanks, Mike.
謝謝,邁克。
That's a great question.
這是一個很好的問題。
We're very excited about this business for a number of reasons.
出於多種原因,我們對這項業務感到非常興奮。
First, is very diversified.
第一,非常多元化。
There's a lot of things in our IoT segment.
我們的物聯網領域有很多東西。
It has consumer, it has networking and it has industrial.
它有消費者,它有網絡,它有工業。
And what we see is really secular growth trends, which is all based to an accelerated digital transformation.
我們看到的是真正的長期增長趨勢,這都是基於加速的數字化轉型。
And we are going to provide a lot more details about how we think about growth rates of this business in our Analyst Day.
我們將在分析師日提供更多關於我們如何看待該業務增長率的細節。
It is one of the largest SAM expansion opportunity for Qualcomm.
這是高通最大的 SAM 擴展機會之一。
It is highly diversified and it has not only higher growth rates than handsets.
它高度多樣化,不僅增長率高於手機。
I think Akash outlined a 1.6x our non-handset growth rate, but also it's accretive to margins and create operating leverage.
我認為 Akash 概述了我們 1.6 倍的非手機增長率,但它也增加了利潤率並創造了經營槓桿。
So stay tuned for more, but we're very happy about what we see with IoT right now.
所以請繼續關注更多,但我們對我們現在看到的物聯網感到非常高興。

Our next question is coming from Chris Caso with Raymond James.
我們的下一個問題來自 Chris Caso 和 Raymond James。
Christopher Caso - Research Analyst
Christopher Caso - Research Analyst
I guess for the first question, maybe you could talk about what generated the upside in the quarter as compared to your expectations.
我想對於第一個問題,也許你可以談談與你的預期相比,是什麼導致了本季度的上行。
Was it a matter of getting more supply?
這是獲得更多供應的問題嗎?
Because I know supply constraints were a big concern coming in.
因為我知道供應限制是一個大問題。
And then if you could talk to us about the status of those supply constraints going into the end of the year.
然後,如果你能和我們談談到年底這些供應限制的狀況。
You talked about getting some additional supply.
你談到要獲得一些額外的供應。
Does that benefit the December quarter?
這對 12 月季度有好處嗎?
Where does that supply come farther out in time?
這種供應會及時出現在哪裡?
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Chris, it's Akash.
克里斯,我是阿卡什。
So let me try to answer both of your questions, and I'm sure Cristiano can add comments to it.
所以讓我試著回答你的兩個問題,我相信 Cristiano 可以添加評論。
For the third fiscal quarter, as you know, our guidance midpoint was $1.65.
如您所知,對於第三財季,我們的指導中點為 1.65 美元。
We came in at $1.92.
我們的價格是 1.92 美元。
And really, most of the upside was driven by QCT.
實際上,大部分上漲是由 QCT 推動的。
We did come in slightly stronger on QTL, which was really just a trade-off between slightly lower units in India and China, the low tiers, but offset by stronger product mix, especially with 5G in various regions, so that helped us.
我們確實在 QTL 上略強一些,這實際上只是印度和中國低端單位之間的權衡,但被更強大的產品組合所抵消,尤其是各個地區的 5G,這對我們有所幫助。
Going over to QCT, what we really liked about the growth that we saw in the quarter is really we saw strength across all the different revenue streams.
轉到 QCT,我們真正喜歡我們在本季度看到的增長確實是我們看到了所有不同收入流的實力。
So it's not just handsets, but also IoT and RF front-end and auto.
所以它不僅僅是手機,還有物聯網和射頻前端和汽車。
And within that, we had a stronger mix -- product mix that helped us.
其中,我們有一個更強大的組合——對我們有幫助的產品組合。
And as we just discussed on the IoT side, significant upside, $100 million higher than the revenue guidance we had given.
正如我們剛剛在物聯網方面討論的那樣,有顯著的上升空間,比我們給出的收入指導高出 1 億美元。
So that helped as well.
所以這也有幫助。
And then maybe the last thing I'll highlight is the gross margin performance.
然後也許我要強調的最後一件事是毛利率表現。
We're pretty happy with the gross point in performance in the quarter.
我們對本季度的業績總點感到非常滿意。
So those were kind of all the key factors that contributed to it.
所以這些都是促成它的所有關鍵因素。
Turning over to supply.
轉向供應。
As we said in Cristiano's prepared remarks, consistent with what we provided last time, we continue to expect that supply will improve materially by the end of the year.
正如我們在克里斯蒂亞諾準備好的發言中所說,與我們上次提供的一致,我們繼續預計到今年年底供應將大幅改善。
And it's really a combination of 2 drivers.
它實際上是 2 個驅動程序的組合。
We're seeing multi-sourcing initiatives that we put in place over the last several months.
我們看到了在過去幾個月中實施的多方採購計劃。
We are seeing the benefit of that as we can use available capacity across the foundries.
我們看到了這樣做的好處,因為我們可以使用整個代工廠的可用產能。
And then the second is really previously planned capacity builds with some of our suppliers that comes online towards the end of the year as well.
然後第二個是我們之前計劃的與我們的一些供應商的產能建設,這些供應商也將在今年年底上線。
So both of those initiatives that we have previously discussed are in play, and that's helping us.
因此,我們之前討論過的這兩項舉措都在發揮作用,這對我們很有幫助。
The first one of our multisourcing product, we recently commercialized and we have a couple more coming up.
我們的第一個多源產品,我們最近商業化了,我們還有幾個即將推出。
So that's really -- your seeing some of the benefits of those initiatives in our September quarter guide, and we'll see even more benefit in the December quarter guide.
所以這真的是——您在我們的 9 月季度指南中看到了這些舉措的一些好處,我們將在 12 月季度指南中看到更多好處。

And the only thing I would like to add is, in spite of having great results, both revenue and EPS, all exceeding the right end of our guidance, we still have demand outpacing supply.
我唯一想補充的是,儘管收入和每股收益都取得了很好的成績,都超出了我們指導的正確範圍,但我們的需求仍然超過供應。
We're -- we have more demand than supply across all of our business.
我們 - 我們所有業務的需求都超過供應。
And as you look at our guide in the next quarter, it's consistent with the statement we made that we see material improvement in supply to Qualcomm by the end of the year, and that's great news.
當您查看我們下一季度的指南時,它與我們所做的聲明一致,即我們看到到今年年底對高通的供應有實質性改善,這是個好消息。
And -- but overall, we continue to see strong demand in every single business outpacing supply.
而且——但總的來說,我們繼續看到每一項業務的強勁需求都超過了供應。

For my follow-up, I wanted to address one of the investor concerns to give you the opportunity to address it, and that's the modem socket at Apple.
對於我的後續行動,我想解決投資者關注的問題之一,讓您有機會解決它,那就是 Apple 的調製解調器插座。
And of course, Apple has expressed that they're also working on their own modem.
當然,Apple 表示他們也在開發自己的調製解調器。
So that's a concern of investors.
所以這是投資者關心的問題。
I know that being Apple, it's -- you're limited in what you can say on that.
我知道作為 Apple,你在這方面的發言權是有限的。
But I guess I wanted to hear what you could say on it.
但我想我想听聽你對此有何看法。
And perhaps if you could talk about perhaps the magnitude of that risk.
也許你可以談談這種風險的程度。
If Apple were to take that path, what would it mean for Qualcomm?
如果蘋果走那條路,對高通來說意味著什麼?
Cristiano Renno Amon - President and CEO
Cristiano Renno Amon - President and CEO
Thanks for your follow-up question.
感謝您的後續問題。
Two answers for you and not any different than what you would expect from Qualcomm.
給您的兩個答案與您對高通的期望沒有什麼不同。
I think the very first one is, we're very happy with our relationship with Apple.
我認為第一個是,我們對與 Apple 的關係非常滿意。
We're just on her first phone.
我們只是在接她的第一部電話。
We have other phones to go, and we're very happy with the way things are progressing.
我們還有其他手機要用,我們對事情的進展方式感到非常滿意。
At the end of the day, you should always think of Qualcomm, we have always been really focused on cellular technology, the first with every new generation of wireless and as long as modem continue to be relevant, there's always going to be a place for Qualcomm in this business.
歸根結底,你應該總是想到高通,我們一直真正專注於蜂窩技術,首先是每一代無線技術,只要調製解調器繼續發揮作用,總會有一席之地高通在這方面的業務。
The second part of the answer, which I think is the most important and an opportunity to address investor concerns is the biggest opportunity for Qualcomm in mobile is the changes that are happening in the mobile landscape right now.
答案的第二部分,我認為是最重要的,也是解決投資者擔憂的機會,也是高通在移動領域的最大機會,即目前移動領域正在發生的變化。
As a matter of fact, this quarter, Xiaomi is now the #2 OEM in award and shipments.
事實上,本季度,小米現在是獎勵和出貨量排名第二的 OEM。
And we see this shift in OEM market share create an incredible opportunity for us.
我們看到 OEM 市場份額的這種轉變為我們創造了一個難以置信的機會。
Snapdragon became synonymous with Android premium and high tier.
Snapdragon 成為 Android 高端和高端的代名詞。
That is how we're going to go faster than the market and incredible opportunity for revenue and earnings, looking at the whole value of the Snapdragon platform.
從驍龍平台的整體價值來看,這就是我們要以比市場更快的速度和難以置信的收入和盈利機會。
We're super focused on executing on this opportunity, and it's going to be one of the key drivers of growth in Qualcomm handset strategy going forward.
我們非常專注於抓住這個機會,它將成為高通手機戰略未來增長的關鍵驅動力之一。

Thanks for the question.
謝謝你的問題。
Overall, on the RF front-end side, the starting point for us, obviously, always is having the right product portfolio.
總的來說,在 RF 前端方面,我們的出發點顯然始終是擁有正確的產品組合。
And so over the last 3 years, we've been investing in the breadth of the portfolio.
因此,在過去 3 年中,我們一直在投資於投資組合的廣度。
And we are in a very good place.
我們處在一個非常好的地方。
I think as you look forward, not only are we the leaders in the modem to RF end-to-end system solutions, but also each individual component within the RF front-end, we feel like we're in a very competitive and strong product position.
我認為,正如您所期待的,我們不僅是調製解調器到 RF 端到端系統解決方案的領導者,而且 RF 前端中的每個單獨組件,我們覺得我們處於一個非常有競爭力和強大的產品定位。
The second is just the design win pipeline that we have in front of us.
第二個就是我們面前的設計獲勝管道。
We have great relationships with the OEMs in the mobile industry.
我們與移動行業的原始設備製造商有著良好的關係。
And so that relationship then extends into providing an end-to-end solution for them.
因此,這種關係會擴展到為他們提供端到端的解決方案。
And so as we look forward and based on our conversations, the commitments we have from the OEMs on the designs, we feel very confident that we have an upward trajectory going forward.
因此,當我們展望未來並根據我們的對話、原始設備製造商對設計的承諾時,我們非常有信心我們有一個向上的軌跡前進。
And then finally, in terms of scale, really, when we look at the scale within handsets, we already feel like we're maybe the largest player in the industry in RF front-end.
最後,就規模而言,實際上,當我們查看手機的規模時,我們已經覺得我們可能是 RF 前端行業中最大的參與者。
And the opportunity for us is, as 5G expands outside, how do we take our position in the handsets, while we continue to grow within handsets, but also take it outside and grow in other areas.
而我們的機會是,隨著 5G 向外擴展,我們如何在手機中佔據一席之地,同時我們繼續在手機內部發展,同時也將其帶到外面並在其他領域發展。

Just kind of thinking a bit more longer term into next year, how should we think about what's the primary driver here?
只是從更長遠的角度考慮明年,我們應該如何考慮這裡的主要驅動因素是什麼?
Is it still content increase as you get on 5G phones?
隨著5G手機的上線,內容還在增加嗎?
Or is it really the $10 billion Huawei TAM that you've talked about?
或者它真的是您所說的 100 億美元的華為 TAM?

So maybe I'll address the first part and then Cristiano can address the MediaTek competitive landscape.
所以也許我會解決第一部分,然後克里斯蒂亞諾可以解決聯發科技的競爭格局。
Overall, I think the answer to your question is all of the above, right?
總的來說,我認為你的問題的答案是以上所有,對吧?
We clearly have a long ways to go within 5G.
顯然,我們在 5G 方面還有很長的路要走。
We're at the front end of it, and we're going to see the rest of the tiers transition over as well.
我們處於它的前端,我們也將看到其餘層級的過渡。
And as that happens, we still think the metric that we gave previously of a 1.5x multiplier on our revenue and margin opportunity still holds.
當這種情況發生時,我們仍然認為我們之前給出的關於我們的收入和利潤率機會的 1.5 倍乘數的指標仍然有效。
In addition to that, as you're seeing the changing OEM landscape is benefiting us with our customers winning share.
除此之外,正如您所看到的,不斷變化的 OEM 格局使我們受益於我們的客戶贏得份額。
And as that happens, when you combine that with our product portfolio within 5G and design commitments, from our customers, especially in the premium and high tiers that positions us to grow significantly as we move into fiscal '22.
當這種情況發生時,當您將其與我們的 5G 產品組合和設計承諾結合起來時,我們的客戶,尤其是高端和高端客戶,使我們在進入 22 財年時能夠實現顯著增長。
Maybe a quick data point to give on Honor.
也許可以提供有關 Honor 的快速數據點。
They are in the process of launching 3 phones with us.
他們正在與我們一起推出 3 款手機。
One is a premium tier Snapdragon 888 phone and then 2 in the high tier.
一個是高級 Snapdragon 888 手機,然後是 2 個高級手機。
And so it's just an example of how we are expanding our customer base.
因此,這只是我們如何擴大客戶群的一個例子。
Cristiano Renno Amon - President and CEO
Cristiano Renno Amon - President and CEO
Samik, so really simple answer, not to talk about MediaTek, but we think that there's plenty of opportunities for growth for us and other companies in the changing landscape.
Samik,答案非常簡單,不是談論聯發科,但我們認為在不斷變化的環境中,我們和其他公司有很多增長機會。
What is really important for Qualcomm and I'll give a couple of metrics.
對高通來說真正重要的是什麼,我將給出幾個指標。
One, outlined by Akash.
一,由 Akash 概述。
Not only we have a strong road map, but we have customer commitments to premium and high-tier designs for Qualcomm.
我們不僅有強大的路線圖,而且我們對高通的優質和高端設計有客戶承諾。
The total design wins for Snapdragon 800 increased 20% quarter-over-quarter, and of our total 5G design wins 1/2 of the design is Snapdragon 8 series.
Snapdragon 800 的設計總勝率環比增長 20%,在我們的 5G 設計總勝率中,有 1/2 的設計是 Snapdragon 8 系列。
So that in -- it's a clear indication about Qualcomm opportunity in the premium and high where we can capture the majority of the value of the market.
因此,這清楚地表明了高通在溢價和高價方面的機會,我們可以在其中佔據市場的大部分價值。
And we look at the growth of handset segment, I know we talked a lot about the growth outside handset, but handsets up $6 billion year-over-year.
我們看看手機領域的增長,我知道我們談了很多關於手機以外的增長,但手機同比增長了 60 億美元。
Q3 '21 handset revenue up 57%.
21 年第三季度手機收入增長 57%。
So that's a clear indication that we are in a good position.
所以這清楚地表明我們處於有利地位。
We see this as one of the largest growth opportunities we have for the handset business, and we'll continue to be executing into this new TAM with premium and high-tier devices.
我們認為這是我們手機業務最大的增長機會之一,我們將繼續通過高端和高端設備進入這個新的 TAM。

我們的下一個問題來自德意志銀行的 Ross Seymore。
Ross Clark Seymore - MD
Ross Clark Seymore - MD
I guess as my first one, I wanted to ask a question on gross margins to Akash.
我想作為我的第一個問題,我想問 Akash 一個關於毛利率的問題。
It's impressive that you guys grew your gross margin 70 basis points sequentially despite the QCT side of the equation dropping in your mix.
令人印象深刻的是,你們的毛利率連續增長了 70 個基點,儘管等式的 QCT 方面在你們的組合中有所下降。
So I just wanted to get into a little bit about what's driving that upside in gross margin in the quarter?
所以我只想談談是什麼推動了本季度毛利率的上升?
And more importantly, structurally going forward, given the new markets you're entering into the position you guys have in the market, is there anything structurally that would keep you from getting a gross margin more aligned to kind of the even the mid-50s range where a lot of your fabless peers currently reside.
更重要的是,在結構上向前發展,考慮到你們正在進入你們在市場上的地位的新市場,在結構上是否有任何東西可以阻止你們獲得更接近 50 年代中期的毛利率許多無晶圓廠同行目前所在的範圍。
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Ross, thanks for the question.
羅斯,謝謝你的提問。
Yes, as I said earlier, I think, pretty happy with how we did on the gross margins.
是的,正如我之前所說,我認為,對我們在毛利率方面的表現非常滿意。
It's really a combination of a couple of things.
這實際上是幾件事的結合。
One is just having a stronger mix of products.
一個是擁有更強大的產品組合。
And so as we see more adoption of our solutions at premium and high tier, that helps our percent gross margin profile in addition to dollar margins.
因此,隨著我們看到更多人在高端和高端採用我們的解決方案,這有助於我們的毛利率百分比以及美元利潤率。
The second is really mix of businesses, and that leads into your second point is as we grow into these other areas, automotive and IoT, our margin profile at the gross margin level help is -- that growth helps the gross margin profile.
第二個是真正的業務組合,這導致你的第二點是當我們發展到這些其他領域,汽車和物聯網時,我們在毛利率水平上的利潤率狀況有助於 - 增長有助於毛利率狀況。
And so that's a key factor for us going forward, as you rightly noted.
因此,正如您正確指出的那樣,這是我們前進的關鍵因素。
Ross Clark Seymore - MD
Ross Clark Seymore - MD
And yes, I should have clarified the mid-50s gross margin would be for the QCT side, not overall.
是的,我應該澄清 50 年代中期的毛利率是針對 QCT 方面的,而不是整體的。
But I guess, as my follow-up question separately, whether it's Cristiano or Akash, how should we think just pluses and minuses for the calendar fourth quarter.
但我想,作為我的後續問題,無論是克里斯蒂亞諾還是阿卡什,我們應該如何考慮日曆第四季度的優缺點。
You have a lot of different dynamics, the timing of premium launches, new launches from the Huawei Honor China ecosystem supply coming on board.
你有很多不同的動態,高級發布的時間,華為榮耀中國生態系統供應的新發布即將到來。
So just a lot of different puts and takes that could make historical seasonality really be thrown out the window.
因此,只有很多不同的 put 和 take 可以讓歷史季節性真正被拋到窗外。
So any sort of just even directional color there on those puts and takes will be helpful.
因此,在這些 put 和 take 上使用任何一種均勻的方向性顏色都會有所幫助。
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Sure.
當然。
So as you know well, it's a seasonally strong quarter for the company overall.
因此,正如您所知,這對公司整體而言是一個季節性強勁的季度。
And let me just maybe quickly hit the 2 businesses.
讓我也許可以快速擊中 2 個業務。
Within QTL, we've said in the past that we expect the holiday quarter to be around $1.7 billion range.
在 QTL 內部,我們過去曾說過,我們預計假期季度的收入約為 17 億美元。
So at this point, we're not seeing anything different at this point to give separate data points.
所以在這一點上,我們沒有看到任何不同的地方來提供單獨的數據點。
On the QCT side, we expect the seasonality to be a favorable thing for all of our businesses, so not just handsets, but RF front-end, IoT and auto.
在 QCT 方面,我們預計季節性對我們所有的業務都是有利的,不僅是手機,還有射頻前端、物聯網和汽車。
And so we'll see a typical seasonal benefit.
因此,我們將看到典型的季節性收益。
Within handsets, obviously, we're getting the benefit from the launch of new handsets that happened during that time, especially in the premium and high tier and then some supply improvements coming into the picture as well.
在手機中,顯然,我們正在從那段時間推出的新手機中獲益,尤其是在高端和高端手機中,然後還有一些供應改善。
The one thing to keep in mind, as a reminder, last year, we had a higher-than-normal sequential increase from September to December quarter.
需要記住的一件事是,提醒一下,去年,我們從 9 月到 12 月的季度出現了高於正常水平的環比增長。
And that was obviously because of 2 reasons that we would not have this time.
這顯然是因為我們這次不會有兩個原因。
First is Apple coming back as a customer to Qualcomm.
首先是蘋果重新成為高通的客戶。
And so that exaggerated the seasonality.
因此,這誇大了季節性。
And then also there was a delay in their phone launch.
然後他們的手機發布也有延遲。
So those are key factors if you compare to last year that would not be factors that would imply this year.
因此,如果您與去年相比,這些是關鍵因素,而這些因素將不會暗示今年。

If you look at what happened in our IoT business this year, we were somewhere in the $1.1 billion range, revenue range for March.
如果你看看今年我們的物聯網業務發生了什麼,我們 3 月份的收入範圍在 11 億美元左右。
We grew to $1.4 billion.
我們增長到 14 億美元。
And as I mentioned earlier, we feel like we're in a strong position to continue to grow that revenue stream.
正如我之前提到的,我們覺得我們在繼續增加收入來源方面處於有利地位。
So pretty interesting trends for us.
對我們來說非常有趣的趨勢。
When you break down the business, and we broke it down in the slide you are referring to in 3 buckets.
當您分解業務時,我們在您提到的幻燈片中將其分解為 3 個部分。
We had EDGE networking, consumer and industrial.
我們擁有 EDGE 網絡、消費者和工業網絡。
Neither of those are dominant categories.
這些都不是主導類別。
So you should think of all 3 as contributing very materially to the total amount of revenue.
因此,您應該將所有 3 項都視為對收入總額的重大貢獻。
Maybe I'll highlight a couple of things.
也許我會強調幾件事。
Within EDGE networking, both the Wi-Fi access point business and the 5G fixed wireless business, they're both very strong for us.
在 EDGE 網絡中,Wi-Fi 接入點業務和 5G 固定無線業務對我們來說都非常強大。
And especially when you think about the 5G fixed wireless business, we're really at the very front end of that having a very material impact for us.
特別是當你考慮 5G 固定無線業務時,我們真的處於對我們產生非常重大影響的前端。
So we're looking forward to the growth that, that offers to us over the next several years.
因此,我們期待著未來幾年為我們提供的增長。
In the consumer business, clearly, there is a very broad set of products we have.
顯然,在消費者業務中,我們擁有非常廣泛的產品系列。
The revenue is split between several products.
收入在幾個產品之間分配。
But then also as you look forward, the opportunity within the next-generation PCs and AR VR are very material things that could be -- material growth drivers going forward.
但同樣,正如你所期待的那樣,下一代 PC 和 AR VR 中的機會是非常物質的東西——未來的物質增長驅動力。
And then within industrial, that's a very broad field, and we're really not even in the first innings on that market.
然後在工業領域,這是一個非常廣泛的領域,我們甚至還沒有進入該市場的第一局。
So a long ways to go for us and we're excited all these markets are looking for technologies from us.
我們還有很長的路要走,我們很高興所有這些市場都在尋找我們的技術。

我想我的第一個問題可以追溯到你們從華為退出和你們的客戶將要進入的領域概述的 100 億美元的 TAM。
We've been all trying to track as Huawei has kind of depleted their own inventory and now yourselves and MediaTek are growing into that business against some supply constraints.
我們一直在努力追踪,因為華為已經耗盡了他們自己的庫存,現在你們自己和聯發科正在克服一些供應限制進入該業務。
So of that $10 billion TAM that's out there for you, just ballpark about how much do you think you can realistically address in the September quarter?
那麼,在為您準備的 100 億美元 TAM 中,您認為您可以在 9 月季度實際解決多少問題?

What gives us confidence that we will get a portion of it in the September quarter, but really, this is a big tailwind for us going into fiscal '22, is our conversations with the OEMs, commitments from them on designs and really the supply improvements that we'll get at the end of the year.
是什麼讓我們有信心我們將在 9 月季度獲得一部分,但實際上,這對我們進入 22 財年來說是一個巨大的推動力,是我們與 OEM 的對話、他們對設計的承諾以及真正的供應改進我們將在今年年底得到。

I think we have a very strong position given our understanding of the market and the ability to provide a very modular solution.
鑑於我們對市場的了解以及提供高度模塊化解決方案的能力,我認為我們擁有非常強大的地位。
I think we're highly differentiated in that space, and it's really showing based on our design wins.
我認為我們在該領域具有高度差異化,並且它確實基於我們的設計勝利而展示。
Also, we're starting to see digital cockpit becoming more material in the revenue, which is really a much richer silicon opportunity for us as we look at the dashboard, the infotainment, rear seat entertainment, heads-up display, smart mirrors, smart side view mirrors and so forth.
此外,我們開始看到數字駕駛艙在收入中變得越來越重要,這對我們來說確實是一個更豐富的矽機會,因為我們看看儀表板、信息娛樂、後座娛樂、平視顯示器、智能鏡子、智能側視鏡等。
And there is a complete redesign of the in-car experience.
並且對車內體驗進行了徹底的重新設計。
I will argue today, Qualcomm is now winning the absolute majority of premium tier car RFPs.
我今天要說的是,高通現在贏得了絕大多數高端汽車 RFP。
We are engaged with 23 of the 26 brands.
我們與 26 個品牌中的 23 個有合作。
Highly differentiated in the space also because we can take a system approach connecting all those different systems together.
在空間上的高度差異化也是因為我們可以採用系統方法將所有這些不同的系統連接在一起。
You should start thinking about our automotive business as there are going to be a digital chassis, then an automotive company will have to build and we are differentiated because we have capabilities across multiple domains, and it's starting to reflect in the magnitude of our contracted pipeline.

我想知道供應鏈緊張和短缺的結束如何影響您在 QCT 的息稅前利潤率。
And is there kind of an active process of thinking that through of can we trade off some of that 30% EBIT margin to retake some share that maybe we lost?
是否有一種積極的思考過程,通過我們可以權衡 30% 的息稅前利潤率中的一部分來重新奪回我們可能失去的一些份額嗎?
Or is it sort of -- just how are you approaching that?
或者它有點——你是如何接近它的?
And is there an ambition to achieve a certain EBIT margin or a certain market share?
是否有實現一定息稅前利潤率或一定市場份額的雄心?
And what's the trade-off between those 2 things?
這兩件事之間的權衡是什麼?

Joe, it's Akash.
喬,是阿卡什。
Our framework on margins really is unchanged from the way we outlined it at Analyst Day last year.
我們的利潤率框架實際上與我們去年在分析師日概述的方式沒有變化。
It's really a combination of 2 things.
這實際上是兩件事的結合。
It's optimizing the gross margins.
它正在優化毛利率。
And the way we do that is a combination of the mix between premium high tiers where the gross margins are a lot more attractive in handsets versus the lower tiers.
我們這樣做的方式是結合高端高端產品的組合,其中手機的毛利率比低端產品更具吸引力。
And then second is focusing on diversification outside.
其次是專注於外部多元化。
And so that adds scale to the margin profile.
因此,這增加了利潤率的規模。
The next point I'd maybe highlight is a lot of the technology that funds the growth in IoT and auto is coming from mobile.
我可能要強調的下一點是,許多為物聯網和汽車發展提供資金的技術都來自移動設備。
So mobile technology is being reused in these areas in very large scale.
因此,移動技術正在這些領域大規模地重複使用。
And that allows us to really get the operating leverage benefit that we were planning for.
這使我們能夠真正獲得我們計劃的運營槓桿效益。
And then, of course, we are balancing that with R&D investments and making sure we're investing in the right things that position us to continue to win in these exciting areas in the long term.
然後,當然,我們正在平衡它與研發投資,並確保我們投資於正確的事情,使我們能夠在這些令人興奮的領域長期繼續取勝。
So it's a combination of those factors.
所以這是這些因素的結合。

I wanted to dig into millimeter wave a little bit.
我想深入研究一下毫米波。
Last quarter, you said it was about 20% of RFFE revenues.
上個季度,您說這大約佔 RFFE 收入的 20%。
I wonder if you could tell us what it was this quarter.
我想知道你是否可以告訴我們這個季度是什麼。
And then if you might be able to indicate whether you expect that to continue?
然後你是否可以表明你是否希望這種情況繼續下去?
I mean, assuming it's risen, do you expect to continue to rise?
我的意思是,假設它上漲了,你預計會繼續上漲嗎?
Where does it end the year, the calendar year for you?

I'll give you the metric on it and then I'll defer to Cristiano to add color on top of it.
我會給你它的指標,然後我會聽從克里斯蒂亞諾在它上面添加顏色。
From a percent of total RFFE revenue, this quarter was not that different than last quarter in pretty similar range.
從 RFFE 總收入的百分比來看,本季度與上一季度在非常相似的範圍內沒有太大差異。
When you think about it very long term going into next year and the following year, as millimeter wave gets deployed, we expect that to be a vector for growth within RF front-end.
當你考慮到明年和下一年的長期發展時,隨著毫米波的部署,我們預計這將成為 RF 前端增長的一個載體。
So it will become a larger percent of the total pie.
因此它將成為整個餡餅的更大百分比。

Rod, on the second part of your question, here's how millimeter wave is tracking.
Rod,關於你問題的第二部分,這是毫米波的跟踪方式。
Everything in line over expectations, commercial networks, United States, Japan, Italy and Singapore.
一切都超出預期,商業網絡,美國,日本,意大利和新加坡。
The upcoming one is South Korea, Germany.
即將到來的是韓國、德國。
There are some countries in Western Europe, Southeast Asia and in Russia as well.
西歐、東南亞和俄羅斯也有一些國家。
And during the MWC Barcelona, the recent trade show, 150 carriers around the world indicated they are investing in millimeter-wave technology.
在最近舉行的巴塞羅那世界移動通信大會期間,全球 150 家運營商表示他們正在投資毫米波技術。
So we're excited about that.
所以我們對此感到興奮。
And we continue to highlight where we think could be an incredible upside opportunity to the model which is millimeter wave going to China.
我們繼續強調我們認為毫米波進入中國的模式可能是一個令人難以置信的上行機會。
We'll continue to be engaged in -- for the Winter Olympics in early 2022.
我們將繼續參與——為 2022 年初的冬季奧運會做準備。

There's the Huawei opportunity, I guess.
我猜這是華為的機會。
But curious if you could just comment on the wider market there, the weakness that we are seeing in handsets.
但是很好奇你是否可以評論更廣泛的市場,我們在手機中看到的弱點。
Do you think this is just consistent with the maturity of that market?
你認為這恰好符合那個市場的成熟度嗎?
Do you think there are macro factors that are coming into play here.

I think, as I mentioned in my prepared remarks, we did see some weakness within the quarter relative to our expectations in China and in India.
我認為,正如我在準備好的發言中提到的那樣,相對於我們在中國和印度的預期,我們確實看到了本季度的一些疲軟。
A lot of the weakness we saw was at the low tier.
我們看到的很多弱點都在低層。
So the phenomena we saw is really kind of weaker low tier, but then mix shift towards the high end in these markets.
因此,我們看到的現象確實是低端市場較弱,但隨後在這些市場中混合轉向高端。
And so that's a key trend that we're monitoring, which, obviously, net-net, the mix shift is a very positive thing for us.
因此,這是我們正在監控的一個關鍵趨勢,顯然,淨網,混合轉變對我們來說是一件非常積極的事情。
The impact in India that we saw in the June quarter, obviously, was related to the COVID situation there.
顯然,我們在 6 月季度看到的對印度的影響與那裡的 COVID 情況有關。
And so as that improves and has improved materially already, we'd expect that some of those units come back into the September quarter and that's been factored into our guide.
因此,隨著這種情況的改善並且已經有了實質性的改善,我們預計其中一些單位會回到 9 月季度,這已被納入我們的指南。

So what you see with QTL right now is -- in the top line numbers that you're seeing, a result of executing on long-term agreements with the major handset OEMs.
所以你現在看到的 QTL 是——在你看到的頂行數字中,這是執行與主要手機 OEM 的長期協議的結果。
On the non-handset side, we've had license agreements in place for a long time.
在非手機方面,我們已經制定了很長時間的許可協議。
Some of those agreements are on a percentage basis.
其中一些協議是按百分比計算的。
Some of the agreements are on a dollars per unit basis.
一些協議以每單位美元為基礎。
We don't break out those individual agreements or the collective non-handset revenue.
我們不會分解那些單獨的協議或集體非手機收入。
But we are moving forward successfully with 5G in the automotive space and in the IoT space as well.
但我們正在汽車領域和物聯網領域成功推進 5G。
It's just that the overall revenue is a relatively smaller part of -- the overall non-handset revenue is a relatively smaller part of our overall licensing revenue, so we don't break it out.

So if you look at a much healthier market, you have at least 5 companies at scale that are driving the premium tier and that creates an incredible opportunity for us.
因此,如果你看看一個更健康的市場,你至少有 5 家規模龐大的公司正在推動高端市場,這為我們創造了一個難以置信的機會。
And as you know, the Snapdragon premium tier devices, there are a lot more revenues in earnings compared, for example, to just the modem technology alone.

I have a clarification and a question.
我有一個澄清和一個問題。
First, on the RF business in the quarter that you reported, Akash.
首先,關於您報告的那個季度的 RF 業務,Akash。
Historically, I've seen kind of handset and RF move hand-in-hand, but this quarter, I think RF grew about 5% or 6% and the handsets declined about 4% or 5%.
從歷史上看,我曾見過手機和 RF 齊頭並進,但本季度,我認為 RF 增長了大約 5% 或 6%,而手機下降了大約 4% 或 5%。
Just trying to understand what explains that discrepancy.
只是想了解是什麼解釋了這種差異。
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Yes.
是的。
Srini, there are a couple of reasons.
斯里尼,有幾個原因。
One is you will see some differences in purchase timing for various things within our portfolio.
一是您會看到我們產品組合中各種事物的購買時間有所不同。
So sometimes RF components are purchased earlier that are not explicitly tied to a specific handset.
因此,有時 RF 組件是較早購買的,但並未明確綁定到特定手機。
So sometimes you see a timing difference that impacts these things.
所以有時你會看到影響這些事情的時間差異。
And then second is design wins, right?
其次是設計獲勝,對嗎?
While RF is largely thought of as an attach business for our Qualcomm baseband, we do have business outside of Qualcomm baseband.
雖然射頻在很大程度上被認為是我們高通基帶的附加業務,但我們確實有高通基帶之外的業務。
So we do attach to other devices.
所以我們確實附加到其他設備。
And so that also becomes a different factor.
因此,這也成為一個不同的因素。
Srinivas Reddy Pajjuri - Research Analyst
Srinivas Reddy Pajjuri - Research Analyst
Got it.

And then on the QTL side, I think you said for the Q4, the run rate should be about $1.7 billion in the peak quarter.
然後在 QTL 方面,我想你說的是第四季度,高峰季度的運行率應該在 17 億美元左右。
Just trying to understand how we should think about growth in this business, Akash, because obviously, you're guiding for handset units to grow high single digits.
只是想了解我們應該如何考慮這項業務的增長,阿卡什,因為很明顯,你正在引導手機部門實現高個位數增長。
And obviously, 5G is potentially doubling or even more than that and some of the adjacencies are adopting 5G.
顯然,5G 可能會增加一倍甚至更多,並且一些鄰接點正在採用 5G。
So as we look into next year or 2, can you talk about some of the potential growth drivers?
因此,當我們展望明年或 2 年時,您能談談一些潛在的增長動力嗎?
I mean whether it's low end or mid-end smartphones adapting 5G or some of the adjacencies.
我的意思是無論是低端還是中端智能手機適應 5G 或一些鄰接。
I'm just curious as to why we are not seeing a bit more pronounced growth here.
我很好奇為什麼我們在這裡沒有看到更明顯的增長。
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Akash Palkhiwala - CFO
Yes, Srini, I'll reiterate what we said at Analyst Day a couple of years ago.
是的,Srini,我會重申幾年前我們在分析師日所說的話。
When you look at our licensing business, we kind of have a base case for the business and we think of it -- other things as upside opportunities.
當你看我們的許可業務時,我們有點業務的基本案例,我們認為它 - 其他事情作為上行機會。
And the way to model our business is really you have our June quarter numbers and then we are forecasting September, and then we gave a data point for December.
為我們的業務建模的方法實際上是你有我們 6 月份的季度數據,然後我們預測 9 月份,然後我們給出 12 月份的數據點。
So those are reasonable data points to project forward to get to an annual number for the licensing business.
因此,這些是合理的數據點,可以向前預測以獲得許可業務的年度數字。
There are a few things that could drive upside on top of that.
除此之外,還有一些事情可以推動上漲。
But again, we think of it as upside opportunities.
但同樣,我們將其視為上行機會。
The growth outside handsets is a factor.
手機以外的增長是一個因素。
Second is, as I mentioned earlier in the call, we're seeing a mix shift that's very positive for us.
其次,正如我之前在電話會議中提到的,我們看到了一種對我們非常積極的混合轉變。
And so as mix shift continues, we'll see the benefit in QCT, but we'll also see the benefit in QTL.
因此,隨著混合轉變的繼續,我們將看到 QCT 的好處,但我們也會看到 QTL 的好處。
And so that would be another upside driver.
因此,這將是另一個上行驅動力。
And especially with 5G penetrating the lower tiers, that will be a factor for QTL as well.
特別是隨著 5G 滲透到較低層級,這也將成為 QTL 的一個因素。
And again, it will show up through better ASPs and as a result, better revenues.
再一次,它會通過更好的 ASP 表現出來,從而帶來更好的收入。
So hopefully, that helps in framing the forward path for it.
希望這有助於為它制定前進的道路。
