Broadcom‑Apple US chip partnership through 2031
Overview
Apple and Broadcom sealed a multiyear supply deal on 12 July 2026, worth over $30 billion, to manufacture roughly 15 billion custom wireless, AI, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth and RF chips in the United States through 2031. The contract funds a $1.5 billion expansion of Broadcom’s Fort Collins, Colorado fab, creating hundreds of high‑skill jobs and anchoring Apple’s $600 billion American Manufacturing Program. Apple CEO Tim Cook called the chips “essential to delivering the incredible performance and connectivity our customers expect.”
For Broadcom, the agreement reduces reliance on Apple (about 20 % of sales) and sparked an immediate rise in its share price. Two days later, Broadcom’s Q2 earnings missed forecasts, sending the stock down about 5 % to a low of $371.90 mid‑day and closing near $374.45. Despite the dip, AI‑semiconductor revenue jumped 143 % YoY to $10.8 billion, and the company projects more than $100 billion in AI‑chip revenue by 2027, citing customers such as Alphabet, Meta, Anthropic and OpenAI. Analysts lifted price targets (e.g., KeyCorp to $575, TD Cowen to $500), reaffirming Broadcom as a “core AI winner” amid broader chip‑sector weakness and modest insider‑selling pressure.
The partnership arrives amid a record surge in global semiconductor sales, which hit $120.6 billion in May 2026 – a 104 % YoY rise driven by AI‑related demand – and complements a wider U.S. push that also involves TSMC, GlobalFoundries and other partners.
No further developments in the Broadcom‑Apple partnership have been reported since the July 2026 update.
