If you believe QCOM can sustain its 13.7% revenue growth and convert its higher margins into durable earnings, then QCOM looks attractive versus FAST because it trades at meaningfully lower P/E, P/S, EV/EBITDA, and EV/Revenue multiples despite stronger operating margins; if not, the DCF range suggests less upside than FAST-implied comparison.
QCOM’s current price of $160.39 sits below FAST-implied price of $245.94 to $440.33 and also below the model implied price of $233.49, suggesting material upside if FAST-style multiple is justified. However, QCOM is already above the top of its DCF range and inside its historical band, so the valuation gap is more about multiple re-rating than clear fundamental mispricing.
