高通公司(Qualcomm)股价周三在盘后交易中飙升至创纪录高位，此前这家芯片制造商发布了强劲的收入预测，并宣布与中国华为(Huawei)达成长期许可协议。

Qualcomm shares soared to a record high in after-market trading on Wednesday after the chipmaker posted strong revenue projections and announced a long-term licensing deal with China’s Huawei.

这家总部位于加州的公司表示，它正在“实现我们在5G移动技术领域投资的收益”，预计本季度调整后的营收可能高达63亿美元，相比之下，接受Refinitiv调查的分析师估计营收为58亿美元。
The California-based company said it was “realising the benefit of the investments we have made” in 5G mobile technology, projecting that adjusted revenues could be as high as $6.3bn in the current quarter, versus a $5.8bn estimate from analysts polled by Refinitiv.

“With the signing of the Huawei agreement we are now entering a period in which we have multiyear licence agreements with every major handset [maker],” Steve Mollenkopf, Qualcomm’s chief executive, told analysts.​​​​
