The jury delivered its decision Friday in an industry-defining licensing battle that started over a $50 million royalty dispute.

In 2022, Arm ignited a legal battle after Qualcomm continued to pay its existing royalty fees to Arm, which were allegedly much lower than what Nuvia was paying. After the two failed to come to an agreement, Arm argued the designs licensed to Nuvia were no longer valid, and that Qualcomm should destroy the technology created with them.

Setback for ARM in the licensing dispute with Qualcomm: According to the jury's verdict on Friday, Qualcomm may integrate the CPU cores acquired with the purchase of the start-up Nuvia into its own processors. The license agreement that Nuvia had originally concluded with ARM was not violated as a result.
