Qualcomm Technologies (NASDAQ:QCOM) announced today that it has secured an agreement with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) to provide its high-end chips for Apple’s smartphones.

The agreement covers the products that are set to be launched in 2024, 2025, and 2026, Qualcomm said.

Shares in the chipmaker soared more than 8% on the announcement.

“This agreement reinforces Qualcomm's track record of sustained leadership across 5G technologies and products,” the chipmaker said in a press release.

Qualcomm’s 5G Modem-RF Systems will be used for new Apple products with the chipmaker noting “terms and conditions [are] similar to previous agreement.”

Qualcomm also noted a 20% share of chipset supply for the smartphone launch in 2026.

The six-year global patent license agreement, which was signed in 2019, remains unchanged. Two companies have an option to extend the agreement for two more years.
