Qualcomm had announced company-wide layoffs impacting 5 percent of its staff, including about 20 per cent of its employees from the mobile division, citing slump in smartphone sales.

In the quarter ended December 2022, Qualcomm reported a decline of 34 per cent year-on-year in net income, Business Today reported. Its revenue dropped 12 per cent and it was attributed to the macroeconomic slowdown and the fall in demand for mobile handsets. The low demand for smartphones directly impacts the company because chip manufacturing is one of Qualcomm’s major revenue-generating operations.
