(Reuters) - Shares in Qualcomm fell more than 3% in Frankfurt on Thursday as a disappointing forecast for no growth in its patent licensing business overshadowed a higher-than-expected outlook for sales and profits.

The shares fell 4.2% in extended trading on Wednesday, having closed up 1.6% on the day in regular hours. Qualcomm stock is up 14.5% this year.
