RESEARCH ALERT-ABN AMRO lowers Qualcomm EPS estimate


CHICAGO, June 28 (Reuters) - ABN AMRO said Wednesday it lowered its estimate for wireless technology developer Qualcomm Inc.'s <QCOM.O> fourth-quarter earnings to 28 cents a share from 31 cents, citing an expected slowdown in chipset sales.

--ABN AMRO analyst Kenneth Leon said the EPS forecast was cut after Qualcomm announced it expected lower chipset sales in the fourth quarter due to a slowdown in South Korea handset sales.

--Said South Korean operators were banned from subsidizing handsets effective June 1. ABN AMRO expects unit chipset sales in South Korea in the quarter ending in September to be 1-2 million less than in the prior quarter.

--ABN AMRO is maintaining a hold rating on Qualcomm stock.
