HOW THIS IS CALCULATED
We take the shares Cristiano Amon reports owning in their most recent SEC Form 4 and multiply by the latest share price. That gives a stake value you can check against the filing itself. Everything beyond that stake — real estate, private holdings, cash, past compensation — is estimated or simply not public, and we say so rather than roll it into one number.
BIOGRAPHY
Cristiano Amon was born in Campinas, Brazil, in 1970, the son of an electrical engineer, and caught the radio and electronics bug young. He earned an electrical engineering degree from the state university of Campinas and started his career in Brazilian telecom before joining Qualcomm in 1996.
After a detour running technology at a Brazilian carrier, he rejoined Qualcomm and climbed through its product organization to become president and then, in 2021, chief executive. He has been central to the company’s 5G push and its expansion of the Snapdragon brand into cars and connected devices.
Amon is a hired executive. His stake in Qualcomm was built from stock compensation, the anchor of the number here.

Share counts are the latest reported on SEC filings and change as the executive trades; the price is the last close, so the stake value moves with the market.
