Each action counts for the company USAspending reported on that row, so a subsidiary's dollars count for Qualcomm only for the period it reported Qualcomm as its parent. Net of de-obligations; these are obligations, not ceilings. They come from the whole USAspending baseline (every recipient size, contracts and assistance) and are a separate view from the curated contract totals on this page. Fiscal year 2027 is partial.
