Non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expenses increased 11 percent y-o-y primarily due to an increase in costs to develop CDMA-based 3G, OFDMA-based 4G LTE and other technologies for integrated circuit and related software products and to expand our intellectual property portfolio.

Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased 19 percent y-o-y primarily due to decreases in costs related to litigation and other legal matters, employee-related expenses and patent-related expenses.

Effective Income Tax Rates

Our fiscal 2014 annual effective income tax rates are estimated to be 16 percent for GAAP and Non-GAAP, both of which include an estimate of the United States federal R&D tax credit generated through December 31, 2013, the date on which the credit expired. Our estimated annual tax rates decreased from our prior estimate primarily as a result of an increase in our estimate of foreign income taxed at rates lower than rates in the United States, which was partially the result of an agreement recently reached with the Internal Revenue Service related to transfer pricing. Also as a result of this agreement, we expect to record a tax benefit of approximately $65 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2014 related to our fiscal 2013 tax return, which will be excluded from Non-GAAP results and is excluded from our guidance.

Business Outlook

The following statements are forward looking, and actual results may differ materially. The "Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this news release provides a description of certain risks that we face, and our annual and quarterly reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) provide a more complete description of risks.

Our outlook does not include provisions for future asset impairments or for pending legal matters, other than future legal amounts that are probable and estimable. Further, due to their nature, certain income and expense items, such as realized investment and certain derivative gains or losses, cannot be accurately forecast. Accordingly, we only include such items in our outlook to the extent they are reasonably certain; however, actual results may differ materially from the outlook.

Our outlook for fiscal 2014 diluted earnings per share includes an estimate of the benefit related to approximately $2 billion in stock repurchases that we plan to complete over the remainder of fiscal 2014 under our current stock repurchase program.

The following table summarizes GAAP and Non-GAAP guidance based on the current outlook. The Non-GAAP outlook presented below is consistent with the presentation of Non-GAAP results included elsewhere herein.

(1) Our current outlook for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2014 GAAP diluted EPS excludes a tax benefit of approximately $65 million that we expect to record in the third quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of an agreement reached with the Internal Revenue Service, which will be excluded from our Non-GAAP results.

(2) Total reported device sales is the sum of all reported sales in U.S. dollars (as reported to us by our licensees) of all licensed CDMA-based, OFDMA-based and CDMA/OFDMA multimode subscriber devices (including handsets, modules, modem cards and other subscriber devices) by our licensees during a particular period (collectively, 3G/4G devices). The reported quarterly estimated ranges of average selling prices (ASPs) and unit shipments are determined based on the information as reported to us by our licensees during the relevant period and our own estimates of the selling prices and unit shipments for licensees that do not provide such information.  Not all licensees report sales, selling prices and/or unit shipments the same way (e.g., some licensees report sales net of permitted deductions, including transportation, insurance, packing costs and other items, while other licensees report sales and then identify the amount of permitted deductions in their reports), and the way in which licensees report such information may change from time to time. Total reported device sales, estimated unit shipments and estimated ASPs for a particular period may include prior period activity that was not reported by the licensee until such particular period.

(3) Our prior and current outlook for fiscal 2014 diluted EPS includes an estimate of the benefit related to stock repurchases that we plan to complete during the fiscal year and reflects an annual effective tax rate that includes an estimate of the United States federal R&D tax credit generated through December 31, 2013, the date on which the credit expired.

(4) The midpoints of the estimated calendar year ranges are identified for comparison purposes only and do not indicate a higher degree of confidence in the midpoints.

(1) Non-GAAP reconciling items related to revenues consisted primarily of nonreportable segment revenues less intersegment eliminations. Non-GAAP reconciling items related to earnings before taxes consisted primarily of certain costs of equipment and services revenues, research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses, other operating expenses and certain investment income or losses and interest expense that are not allocated to the segments for management reporting purposes; nonreportable segment results; and the elimination of intersegment profit.

(2) During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, as a result of the reassessment of management reporting, the Qualcomm Wireless & Internet (QWI) segment was eliminated. Revenues and operating results for the divisions that comprised the QWI segment are included in Non-GAAP reconciling items. Prior period information has been adjusted to conform to the current presentation.

(3) At fiscal year end, the sum of the quarterly tax provision (benefit) for each column equals the annual tax provision (benefit) for each column computed in accordance with GAAP. In interim quarters, the sum of these provisions (benefits) may not equal the total GAAP tax provision, and this difference is allocated to tax provisions (benefits) among the columns.

(4) During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, a gain of $665 million was recorded associated with the sale of substantially all of the operations of our Omnitracs division.

Conference Call

Qualcomm's second quarter fiscal 2014 earnings conference call will be broadcast live on April 23, 2014, beginning at 1:45 p.m. Pacific Time (PT) at http://investor.qualcomm.com/events.cfm. This conference call will include a discussion of "Non-GAAP financial measures" as defined in Regulation G. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and information reconciling these Non-GAAP financial measures to the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as other financial and statistical information to be discussed on the conference call, will be posted at www.qualcomm.com/investor immediately prior to commencement of the call. An audio replay will be available at http://investor.qualcomm.com/events.cfm and via telephone following the live call for 30 days thereafter. To listen to the replay via telephone, U.S. callers may dial +1 (855) 859-2056 and international callers may dial +1 (404) 537-3406. Callers should use reservation number 25607511.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, "Non-GAAP" is not a term defined by GAAP, and as a result, the Company's measure of Non-GAAP results might be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliations between GAAP and Non-GAAP results are presented herein.

The Company uses Non-GAAP financial information (i) to evaluate, assess and benchmark the Company's operating results on a consistent and comparable basis; (ii) to measure the performance and efficiency of the Company's ongoing core operating businesses, including the QCT (Qualcomm CDMA Technologies) and QTL (Qualcomm Technology Licensing) segments; and (iii) to compare the performance and efficiency of these segments against each other and against competitors. Non-GAAP measurements of the following financial data are used by the Company: revenues, cost of equipment and services revenues, R&D expenses, SG&A expenses, operating income, net investment income, income or earnings before income taxes, effective tax rate, net income, diluted earnings per share, operating cash flow and free cash flow. The Company is able to assess what it believes is a more meaningful and comparable set of financial performance measures for the Company and its business segments by using Non-GAAP information. As a result, management compensation decisions and the review of executive compensation by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors focus primarily on Non-GAAP financial measures applicable to the Company and its business segments. The Company presents Non-GAAP financial information to provide greater transparency to investors with respect to its use of such information in financial and operational decision-making.

Non-GAAP information used by management excludes QSI and certain share-based compensation, acquisition-related items and tax items.

  • QSI is excluded because the Company expects to exit its strategic investments at various times, and the effects of fluctuations in the value of such investments and realized gains or losses are viewed by management as unrelated to the Company's operational performance.
  • Share-based compensation expense primarily relates to restricted stock units. Non-cash share-based compensation is excluded because management views such expenses as unrelated to the operating activities of the Company's ongoing core businesses.
  • Acquisition-related items include amortization and impairment of certain intangible assets, recognition of the step-up of inventories to fair value and the related tax effects of these items starting with acquisitions completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2011, as well as any tax effects from restructuring the ownership of such acquired assets. Additionally, the Company excludes expenses related to the termination of contracts that limit the use of the acquired intellectual property. These acquisition-related items are excluded and are not allocated to the Company's segments because management views such expenses as unrelated to the operating activities of the Company's ongoing core businesses. In addition, these charges are impacted by the size and timing of acquisitions, potentially obscuring period-to-period comparisons of the Company's operating businesses.
  • Certain tax items that are unrelated to the fiscal year in which they were recorded are excluded in order to provide a clearer understanding of the Company's ongoing Non-GAAP tax rate and after tax earnings.
