Qualcomm on Wednesday gave a gloomy sales outlook as it signaled the market for smartphones was more turbulent than expected. Shares of the mobile-phone chip company declined 6.6% to $105.40 in after-hours trading.

Synaptics reported fiscal third-quarter adjusted earnings and revenue above Wall Street expectations, but called for a weaker current quarter due to "the current economic slowdown." Shares of the maker of human-interface hardware and software dropped 20% to $70.80 in after-hours trading.

Option Care Health and Amedisys on Wednesday said the two companies have entered into an agreement to combine in an all-stock deal that values Amedisys at $3.6 billion including net debt.
