Broadcom strikes $15 billion deal with Apple to sell it iPhone parts

Triple wow, that is a really big number! Remember, Apple bought the Intel modem business for $1B.
  • - Broadcom will sell $15 billion of wireless components to Apple, it announced in an SEC filing on Thursday.
  • - Broadcom said in a December filing that Apple’s business comprised 20% of Broadcom’s net revenue in 2019 and 25% in 2018.

Hock Tan is a very clever man and certainly fun to watch. I fully expect other systems companies to follow suit before Apple gobbles up the rest of the fabless and IP companies. Good news for Qorvo and Skyworks? And where are the anti trust people? The fabless disruption continues, absolutely.
