To Our Stockholders,
For QUALCOMM, 2005 was a year of records and the achieve-
ment of new milestones. Once again, we posted record fi nancial
results, further increasing our revenues, earnings and operating
cash fl ow. We delivered new products, opened new markets and
led the industry with innovations designed to cost-effectively
deliver the promises of next-generation wireless.
We announced the shipment of our two billionth chip. Seven new customers selected
our WCDMA (UMTS) chipsets for their WCDMA phone products, bringing the total
number of WCDMA customers to 32. In June 2005, BREW® publishers and developers
reported that they had earned more than $350 million from the sale of wireless
applications and services developed for operators’ BREW-based services. And we
recently announced Verizon as MediaFLO’s fi rst U.S. operator.
We continued to invest in emerging technologies through strategic acquisitions and
research and development (R&D). We completed four acquisitions this year, expand-
ing our talents with an exciting new display technology, new user interface
