Qualcomm Confirms Receipt of Revised Proposal from Broadcom

Qualcomm Incorporated confirmed that it has received a revised, non-binding, unsolicited proposal from Broadcom Limited to acquire all outstanding shares of Qualcomm for $60.00 per share in cash and $22.00 per share in Broadcom stock.
 
Consistent with its fiduciary duties, the Qualcomm Board of Directors, in consultation with its financial and legal advisors, will review the revised proposal to determine the course of action it believes is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.  Qualcomm will have no further comment on the proposal until its Board of Directors has completed its review.
 
On Nov. 13, 2017, Qualcomm’s Board of Directors unanimously rejected Broadcom’s non-binding, unsolicited proposal to acquire Qualcomm for per share consideration of $60.00 in cash and $10.00 in Broadcom stock.  After a comprehensive review, conducted in consultation with its financial and legal advisors, the Board concluded that Broadcom’s proposal dramatically undervalues Qualcomm and comes with significant regulatory uncertainty, and therefore is not in the best interests of Qualcomm stockholders.
