Qualcomm will report its Q2 results after today's closing bell, followed by a conference call at 16:45 ET. 

The Capital IQ consensus expects the chipmaker to report an 11.3% yr/yr contraction in EPS to $0.71 on a 7.7% yr/yr decrease in revenue to $4.83 bln. 

Two weeks ago, Qualcomm and Apple agreed to dismiss all litigation against one another and signed a six-year license agreement. The agreement, which included a payment from Apple to Qualcomm, lifted Qualcomm to levels not seen in more than 19 years. Qualcomm expects the settlement to increase EPS by $2.00. 

The Q2 report will be watched closely for commentary regarding the ongoing roll-out of 5G technology.
