Brean Murray Carret & Co. initiates coverage on Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM) with a Buy. PT $73.00.
The firm comments, "With higher-ASP smartphones taking share from feature phones and lower-end smartphones, tablets on the rise (incremental to QCOM especially for mobile access to the cloud), Snapdragon reaccelerating after the end of the 28nm shortages ending, 3G increasing in emerging markets, and Apple 'setting the bar' at 4G LTE (higher content), we think the stock can continue on its protracted run. Based on our current outlook, we believe QCOM shares could trade up to a fair value of $73, which would put it at 16.7x our current earnings estimate for 2013 — in line with its 2-year average multiple."
