Qualcomm Inc. Stock Valuation Analysis — Beer Score Breakdown

Qualcomm Inc.'s Beer Score of 92 means that, according to our DCF model, more than half of its current $140.70 stock price is supported by the company's existing fundamentals — revenue, earnings, free cash flow, and assets. The remaining 8% represents an estimated premium the market places on future growth expectations.

Investors buying at this level are betting that future earnings will grow fast enough to close the gap between price and our model estimated intrinsic value.

How Beer Score Is Calculated for QCOM

We pull Qualcomm Inc.'s latest 10-K and 10-Q filings from SEC EDGAR, run a DCF analysis using a 9.0% WACC and 6% revenue growth rate over 5 years with 3% terminal growth, then compare the resulting model estimate ($130) against the current market price ($140.70). The Beer Score of 92 represents the ratio: $130 ÷ $140.70 = 92%. Model output varies with assumptions. Learn more about our methodology →

Important Information

Beer Score is an educational indicator, not investment advice. It measures the model-estimated gap between a stock's current market price and an estimated intrinsic value derived from public financial data. A low Beer Score does not mean "sell" and a high score does not mean "buy." Past Beer Score patterns do not predict future price movements. Model output varies with assumptions (WACC, growth rate, terminal growth, margins).

Prices shown are indicative reference prices for educational purposes only and are not sourced from an official exchange feed. Data sources include SEC EDGAR filings (10-K and 10-Q), indicative market price data, and proprietary DCF models. Scores update daily after market close.

About This Valuation

Why does Qualcomm Inc. have a Beer Score of 92?
Qualcomm Inc. (QCOM) scores 92 because the stock is currently trading roughly 8% above its estimated intrinsic value of $130. The Beer Score reflects that 92% of the price is backed by estimated fundamental value.
Is QCOM overvalued or undervalued?
Based on our DCF model, Qualcomm Inc. appears overvalued. The estimated intrinsic value of $130 compared to the current price of $140.70 carries a 8% speculation premium. This is a model-based estimate using 9.0% WACC — not a buy or sell recommendation. The actual fair value depends on assumptions that may change with new earnings data or market conditions.
What assumptions drive the $130 intrinsic value estimate?
The DCF model uses a 9.0% weighted average cost of capital and projects 6% annual revenue growth over five years. Terminal growth is set at 3%. The model is most sensitive to the growth rate and WACC inputs — small changes in either significantly alter the output.
