Forget $0.82!!

Guys...the operative number is NOT $0.82...it's $1.20. Qualcomm included a proforma number reflecting what earnings would have been without the operating losses in the infrastructure division...$1.20/shr!

Simple observation #1: the infrastructure operation has been sold, so the losses are gone forever.

Simple observation #2: without the infrastructure losses, the company earnings were $1.20/shr during the quarter.

Simple observation #3: $1.20 x 4 = $4.80/shr.

This is a (very) good thing!!!
