Qualcomm Price Increases Applied to Shipments Starting Sept. 1

Qualcomm’s double-digit price increases across its product lineup applied to shipments beginning Sept. 1, as rising semiconductor costs put pressure on margins and could affect device makers’ expenses. CEO Cristiano Amon said during Qualcomm’s fiscal third-quarter 2026 earnings call on July 29 that higher costs required price adjustments to protect the company’s profit margins. Those costs include memory, wafer fabrication, assembly and testing, advanced packaging and substrate materials. The broad increase was described as double-digit, with no precise percentage specified. Earlier price increases on some products had not fully offset higher input costs, leaving margins under pressure.
