QCOM Analyst Day Preview - $20+ EPS by FY31 +1-415-352 4626

We expect QCOM Analyst Day this Wednesday to lean more heavily into a long-term Alex Kivali

data center narrative—which was largely absent back in 2024 and not part of QCOM's Analyst

standing financial model. Qualcomm has already begun to showcase this buildout, alex.kivali@ubs.com

including a rack-scale AI inference system around AI200 with a 43TB GDDR memory +1-212-713 3945

rack (a 350B-parameter model fitting on a single card) optimized for decode, with initial Gianmarco Vella

deployments this year. Beyond announced accelerators for decode applications, we Associate Analyst

expect incremental updates on its server CPU efforts and potential inorganic options. On gianmarco.vella@ubs.com

the latter, the Tenstorrent angle (per press reports) makes sense to us as a stack +1-415-352 4555

extension, moving QCOM from a largely decode-optimized system provider toward a Aaryan Wadhwa

more balanced inference architecture (CPU + accelerator + system), adding exposure to Associate Analyst

higher-value prefill / latency-sensitive workloads with Tenstorrent hardware (also based aaryan.wadhwa@ubs.com
