The transaction will be completed after obtaining necessary regulatory approvals. As of press time, Qualcomm's pre-market shares have risen more than 4%.
According to reports, this is the first patent licensing agreement between Huawei and Qualcomm that covers 5G technology. Huawei stated that upon completion of this transaction, the total value of its patent licensing agreements is expected to exceed $6.9 billion.
