    QUALCOMM INVESTIGATION INITIATED by Former Louisiana Attorney General: Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC Investigates the Officers and Directors of QUALCOMM Incorporated - QCOM

    Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq., a partner at the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (“KSF”), announces that KSF has commenced an investigation into QUALCOMM Incorporated (QCOM). In January 2017, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) filed suit against the Company for anti-competitive trade practices alleging that it maintained a monopoly over chips for mobile phones using policies that violated industry agreements by demanding high royalty fees from customers to license its standard essential patents (“SEPs”) to buy its chips, refusing to license its SEPs to competitors, and entering into an exclusivity contract with Apple preventing other chip suppliers from working with it.

At the time, the iPhone maker said that it would no longer stock the iPhone 7 and 8 at its 15 retail outlets in Germany but those models would remain available to customers through more than 4,300 carriers and resellers across Germany.

    Leaked Emails Reveal New Reason Apple, Qualcomm Parted Ways

    The FTC argues that Qualcomm won’t sell chips if customers don’t also pay hefty licensing fees. Billions of dollars in chip supply deals involving Apple and Qualcomm may have actually collapsed over a squabble about software access, rather than the patent fees that sparked a bitter legal battle between the two technology giants, according to the emails seen by Bloomberg.

    Confusion over the difference between Qualcomm’s standard essential patents/IP and its non-essential patents/IP has impacted media coverage over the ongoing FTC lawsuit and maybe even the FTC’s legal arguments themselves. The FTC has said it would like to force Qualcomm to license essential IP according to principles of fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory licensing, but Faucette said Qualcomm has already demonstrated its willingness to do so in China and with Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).

    Apple Stock Needs to Declare Independence From iPhone Dependence

    Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) cannot escape the negative sentiment surrounding its iPhone. The company began the year on news of an iPhone-induced revenue miss and a 7.5% decline in Apple stock. It won one of its court cases against Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) regarding their ongoing patent dispute. However, the company has seen little else to celebrate as iPhone revenues continue to take a beating. Still, amid the bad news, investors should remember that AAPL stock holds the largest cash hoard in corporate America. Even if AAPL languishes in the near term, the recent decline should eventually become a lucrative buying opportunity as the company works to replace lost iPhone revenues. ### Apple Stock Finally Received Some Good News News regarding the iPhone and rumors that Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) has pursued its SVP of hardware development has dominated the headlines on Apple stock recently. Still, AAPL got something it has not received in a while -- good news. InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips A court in Germany dismissed a patent suit against Apple by Qualcomm. The court ruled Apple had not infringed on Qualcomm patents. This represents the first win for Apple in a series of patent suits Apple launched against Qualcomm in many countries. * Top 10 Global Stock Ideas for 2019 From RBC Capital Although this boosts morale for Apple, it does not change the fact that the Apple-Qualcomm relationship has suffered irreparable damage. Apple has moved on and produces its latest iPhone models without Qualcomm chips. Hence, I question whether this will have a lasting effect on Apple stock. ### Lower iPhone Revenues Could Become Permanent It also does not change the fact that AAPL stock will probably have to adjust to the reality of lower iPhone revenues. The iPhone accounted for over 59.1% of Apple's sales in the fourth quarter. This means Apple's fortunes rise and fall with the iPhone. The recent revenue miss also hints at what will likely come. Moreover, as my colleague Brad Moon points out, "batterygate" could have contributed to this decline. More customers than expected rushed to take advantage of $29 battery replacements, delaying the need for a new iPhone. Still, that may have actually kept more customers in Apple's iOS ecosystem. Yes, aging phones and the rise of 5G will eventually force some future upgrades. However, consumers can now find unlocked phones for a much lower cost in the Android ecosystem. Sometimes, these phones sell in the $200 range for a company's latest release. The lowest-cost model of the newest iPhone costs no less than $749. Many higher-end models retail for over $1,000. Given that cost differential, one has to expect that Apple will lose more iPhone users in the coming years. ### Do Not Count Apple Stock Out Yet Despite this decline, investors should also remember that few companies have more ability to redefine themselves than Apple. The company's $237 billion in cash creates numerous options. If Apple cannot invent its next revenue source, it can buy it. Former CEO John Sculley believes that Apple will become a gamechanger in the healthcare industry. Its advances with the Apple Watch point in that direction. Whatever the source, cash-rich companies such as archrival Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) have shown an ability to come back after sales fell in their core product. One has to assume Apple can engineer a similar comeback amid an iPhone revenue decline. Apple stock has also reached a compelling multiple. The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio stands at just over 12.8. Looking back over the past ten years, the average annual P/E has never fallen below 11.4. That low might explain why Apple bounced off of the $142-per-share low it saw on Jan. 3. In the two weeks since that time, Apple stock has risen by about 9%. Time will tell if that low forms a more permanent bottom. However, for now, AAPL has stopped falling. If healthcare or another business turns into a revenue catalyst, AAPL stock should return to growth mode. ### The Bottom Line on Apple Stock Apple stock has dealt with declining revenues in its core product in recent months. However, Apple's ability to reinvent itself could ultimately rescue AAPL. Yes, winning one lawsuit against Qualcomm boosts morale. However, it does not change the fact that falling iPhone revenues have severely damaged Apple. Although AAPL stock bounced off of a recent low, the company may struggle to gain traction in the near term. * 7 Best ETFs for Novice Investors However, the P/E ratio of Apple stock has begun to flirt with multi-year lows. The company also holds the largest cash position in corporate America, giving the company numerous options. AAPL could languish for some time to come. Still, with its low multiple and its large cash position, Apple stock has become a buying opportunity in need of a catalyst. Investors should treat it as such.

The regional court in the city of Mannheim said Tuesday that a patent-infringement case brought by Qualcomm was unfounded, though the chip maker can appeal the decision. The ruling is the first of six patent cases brought by Qualcomm in Mannheim, with the second such decision expected next month, a spokesman for the court said.
