QUALCOMM holds the cleaner structural position, with the lead spread across valuation and growth. Teradyne still has the edge on growth, which keeps the comparison from looking entirely one-sided. In the market, Teradyne carries the stronger setup — intact trend against QUALCOMM's broken trend. That leaves a split case: the structural lead stays with QUALCOMM, but the market is not currently confirming it.
The comparison is based on similar long-term financial trajectories, not sector labels.
This is not just a one-metric split: both valuation and profitability materially support the lead. QUALCOMM Incorporated leads by 28 points on the overall comparison score.
These two companies are linked by measured long-term financial trajectory similarity within the selected peer universe.
The pair sits on a clearly comparable long-term path, though it is not a near-twin match.
Most of the shared profile comes through capital structure and revenue growth trajectory.
Scores reflect position relative to comparable companies with similar long-term financial trajectories.
The largest gaps do not all point in the same direction.
Left means cheaper relative valuation. Higher means stronger structure.
QUALCOMM Incorporated looks stronger both structurally and on relative valuation.
Valuation position uses peer-relative PE percentile (idx_pct_pe) where available.
The multiple-based pricing edge comes from a forward P/E that is 26 turns lower.
Teradyne still pushes back on growth, with a 39-point revenue-growth advantage that keeps the read from becoming one-way.
The valuation lead is decisive, but growth still runs counter to it — the result is clear, not entirely one-sided.
Break down the QCOM vs TER comparison across all dimensions with the full interactive tool.
Explore how QCOM and TER each compare against other companies in their peer groups.
Rule-based, descriptive analysis only. Derived from peer percentile dimensions. Not investment advice. Peer groups are determined algorithmically based on structural similarity — not by sector classification alone.
AssetNext scores reflect each company's structural position within its functional peer group — not a ranking against all stocks simultaneously. Peers are identified by similarity across eight financial dimensions, including revenue growth trajectory, margin structure, capital intensity, and earnings stability. A score of 75 means the company ranks in the top quartile within its own peer group, not the entire market.
Four dimension scores drive the overall peer score: Growth (revenue trajectory and expansion dynamics), Quality (margin structure and capital efficiency), Valuation (peer-relative pricing on standard multiples), and Stability (earnings consistency and financial predictability). Each dimension is scored 0–100 relative to the peer group, then combined into an overall peer score using equal weighting.
Scores are recalculated periodically as underlying financial data is updated. All analysis is descriptive and rule-based — AssetNext describes structural realities and never issues buy, sell or hold recommendations.
