QCOM. O said Tuesday that Tim Cook, CEO of AAPL. O, was "misleading" about the recent statement that the two sides had not discussed a settlement.
A spokesman for Qualcomm said, "Over the past 18 months, we have made it clear that we have discussed with Apple at different times the resolution of the licensing dispute."
In an interview with CNBC earlier Tuesday, Cook said that the two companies had not discussed licensing dispute resolution since "the third quarter of last year".
