There’s always a lot of noise made by the press when Apple is due to release its quarterly earnings data. This quarter Apple has pounded Wall Street analyst expectations. I won’t bore you too much with the details ‘cept… all the details (which I ripped from Techcrunch):
- -Highest quarterly revenue and profit ever.
- -Record iPhone and iPad sales
- -June quarter record for Mac sales
- -Mac sales strong in the Asia Pacific region in particular (that's us)
- -iPod touch continues to account for over half of iPods sold—over 70% of market still
- -iTunes revenue up 36% year over year
- -225 million iTunes accounts
- -15 billion songs downloaded
- -iPhone 20.3 million sales
- -iPad 9.2 million sales “we sold every iPad we could make”
- -iPad 2 launched in 36 countries. Now in 64 countries
Last year Apple had $65Bn in the bank. Today—they have $76Bn. Basically, this means you don’t fuck with Apple or they’ll buy your ass… kinda like Microsoft back in the day.
