No matter how big its legal problems are with Nokia (NOK) or Broadcom (BRCM), Qualcomm (QCOM) keeps chugging along.
Qualcomm said that based on the current business outlook, it now anticipates first fiscal quarter pro forma revenues to be at the high end of the prior guidance of approximately $2.3 to $2.4 billion compared to $2.02 billion in the year ago quarter. The firm anticipates first fiscal quarter pro forma diluted earnings per share to be approximately $0.52 to $0.53 compared to $0.43 in the year ago quarter. This estimate is based on the shipment of approximately 78 million Mobile Station Modem chips during the quarter as compared to our prior estimate of 74 to 78 million units. QCOM previously anticipated first fiscal quarter Qualcomm pro forma diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.50 to $0.52.
Impressive.

Are You Still Paying With a Debit Card?
The average American spends $17,274 on debit cards a year, and it’s a HUGE mistake. First, debit cards don’t have the same fraud protections as credit cards. Once your money is gone, it’s gone. But more importantly you can actually get something back from this spending every time you swipe.
Issuers are handing out wild bonuses right now. With some you can earn up to 5% back on every purchase. That’s like getting a 5% discount on everything you buy!
Our top pick is kind of hard to imagine. Not only does it pay up to 5% back, it also includes a $200 cash back reward in the first six months, a 0% intro APR, and…. $0 annual fee. It’s quite literally free money for any one that uses a card regularly. Click here to learn more!
