Qualcomm revenue forecast meets estimates, signs contract with Huawei

Qualcomm Inc forecast current-quarter revenue that met analysts` expectations and said it had negotiated a new interim contract with Huawei Technologies that added to revenue in the quarter, sending its shares up 4 percent after the bell.

The new interim contract with Huawei means the only big dispute Qualcomm has with a customer now is with Apple, after it resolved its disputes with Samsung Electronics last year.

Qualcomm`s forecast comes as a relief to investors after a bunch of other chipmakers, including Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, Samsung and Intel Corp, delivered lower-than-expected sales forecasts this month, citing economic weakness in China.
