クアルコムは9月24日、アップルとの世界特許ライセンス契約を更新したと発表した。新契約は既存契約が満了する2027年4月1日に発効する。同社は財務条件を開示せず、新契約の期間についても言及しなかったため、投資家は関係が継続することは分かっても、どのような条件に基づくのかは分からないままだ。ライセンス事業こそがクアルコムが実際に稼ぐ部門であり、自社で製造していない携帯電話からロイヤルティを徴収している。両社は2017年と2018年、まさにこのロイヤルティを巡って大規模な法廷闘争を繰り広げた後、2019年4月に始まる6年間の契約で和解し、アップルは後にこれを2年延長して2027年3月までとした。アップルは自社製モデムの出荷を開始しているが、今月の分解調査では米国のiPhone 18 Pro MaxやiPhone 17シリーズ全体にクアルコムのシリコンが依然として見つかっており、アップルからのチップ収入は見出しが示唆するよりも緩やかに減少している。ロイヤルティ収入はこの移行を生き残る部分だ。クアルコム株は発表当日に1.51%下落した後、翌取引日に3.97%回復した。注目すべき数字は新契約が始まってからのライセンス収入である。そこではじめて条件が可視化されるからだ。

クアルコムのSnapdragon X Eliteが1199ドルのデルXPS Googlebookに搭載
デルは、フラッグシップのGooglebookにクアルコムのSnapdragon X Eliteチップを採用し、無線およびコンピューティングチップ設計企業であるクアルコムに、Googleの新たなプレミアムノートPC推進策における早期の足掛かりを与えた。1199ドルのXPS Googlebookは、Snapdragon X Eliteと最大18時間とされるバッテリー駆動時間を組み合わせたもので、クアルコムのWindowsに対抗するPC野心を高く示す場となる。Googleの広範な展開はエイサー、エイスース、デル、HP、レノボに及ぶが、同社はこれらのマシンのうち何台がクアルコムのシリコンで、何台がインテルのプロセッサで動作するかを明らかにしておらず、Snapdragonがショーケース設計からGooglebookエコシステム全体で意味のあるシェアへと移行できるかは未解決のままである。クアルコム株は約0.3%下落して193ドル59セントとなり、この価格はGFバリュー推定値175ドル48セントを10.32%上回っており、市場がすでに将来の成長をかなり織り込んでいることを示唆する。デルのプレミアム案件1件の獲得は、Snapdragonが注目を集める設計で競争できることを証明するが、より大きな触媒となるのは、複数のメーカーによる繰り返しの採用、より強力なソフトウェア互換性、そしてクアルコムをスマートフォンへの依存から実質的に減らすのに十分なPC出荷量である。
