STEVENSON, Md., July 02, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A
Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of California on behalf of purchasers of QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq:QCOM) (“QUALCOMM” or the “Company”)
securities during the period between January 31, 2018 and March 12, 2018, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors who
wish to become proactively involved in the litigation have until August 7, 2018 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.
If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff and
be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including
whether to accept a settlement for the class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants
claiming the largest loss from investment in QUALCOMM securities during the Class Period. Members of the class will be
represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. No class has yet been certified in the above
action.
The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the
defendants’ failure to disclose during the Class Period that QUALCOMM secretly filed a voluntary request for the Committee on
Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) to initiate an investigation into Broadcom Limited’s (“Broadcom”) actions to
frustrate Broadcom’s attempt to acquire the Company.
According to the complaint, following a March 5, 2018 press release disclosing the secret actions with respect
to CFIUS, a March 6, 2018 report disclosing a letter from the U.S. Department of Treasury (“Department of Treasury”) and a
Modification of Interim Order from CFIUS, a March 12, 2018 report of another letter from the Department of Treasury and President
Donald J. Trump’s order blocking Broadcom from taking further action regarding the acquisition of the Company, the value of
QUALCOMM shares declined significantly.
If you have suffered a loss in excess of $100,000 from investment in QUALCOMM securities purchased on or after
January 31, 2018 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period and would
like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you,
