Huawei is operating in two parallel universes — one where its business grew almost 20% last year to $100 billion in revenue and another where it is battling to just stay afloat amid prohibitive bans and a seemingly never-ending barrage of criminal accusations.

Within the span of a week, Huawei has been targeted by a presidential executive order, banning it from purchasing U.S.-made products, including all contracts with chipmaker ARM as well as business with Intel, Qualcomm, Broadcom, and more; Google blocked Huawei’s future access to Android updates; and a top executive was accused of participating in a conspiracy to steal intellectual property from California-based CNEX Labs, which makes solid-state storage.

On the latter, Huawei Deputy Chairman Eric Xu was accused of engaging in a multi-year effort to steal trade secrets from the startup, which is backed by Microsoft and Dell Technologies, according to The Wall Street Journal. A lawsuit filed by CNEX is set for trial June 3 in a federal court.

Huawei called the allegations “groundless,” but it’s not the first time the Chinese vendor has been accused of stealing technology from American companies. Earlier this year, federal prosecutors indicted Huawei for allegedly stealing a robotic arm used in T-Mobile’s testing lab.

Widening Impact of Ban

ARM’s decision to suspend all contracts and engagements with Huawei could be especially consequential since ARM’s underlying technology is used in Huawei’s 5G equipment, servers, and smartphones. It could also impact Huawei’s ability to develop its own chips, according to the BBC. The move was driven by restrictions imposed by the U.S. government that Huawei described as “politically motivated.”

Other major U.S. tech firms are complying with the executive order and cutting ties with Huawei. Broadcom, Intel, Qualcomm, and Xilinx have all halted chip shipments. And although Huawei has reportedly stockpiled a three-month inventory of chips, that only kicks the problem down the road.

Meanwhile, the widening impacts are causing confusion throughout the supply chain as was evidenced by an abrupt about-face by U.S. government officials. After acting on President Donald Trump’s executive order to prohibit Huawei from purchasing American-made products, the U.S. Commerce Department issued a 90-day reprieve with exceptions four days later. The order allows Huawei to continue purchasing American-made products that are deemed necessary to maintain existing networks and provide software updates to Huawei devices.

It’s a mess and no one, including Huawei and its partners, knows how it will play out.
