10:59 AM EST, 12/16/2025 (MT Newswires) -- A UK court on Tuesday sanctioned the scheme of arrangement linked to Qualcomm's (QCI.F) planned acquisition of Alphawave IP Group (AWE.L), according to a same-day filing. The scheme is expected to take effect on Thursday, with the delisting of the British semiconductor company's shares from the London bourse to follow on Friday. In June, Qualcomm, via Aqua Acquisition Sub, offered $2.48 in cash for each Alphawave share, which values the latter's entire share capital at $2.4 billion.
