eye-popping revenue numbers with
their year-over-year growth:
iPhone: $66 billion (17%)
Mac: $8.7 billion (21%)
iPad: $8.4 billion (41%)
Wearables: $13 billion (29%
Services: $15.8 billion (17%)
It’s gotten to the point where
Apple is running out of room to grow.
The numbers here are so insane, the
Mac sticks out for ‘only’ growing 20
per cent. With the launch of the M
MacBooks and Mac mini, analysts were
expecting the Mac to possibly hit $
billion in sales, especially after last
quarter’s $9 billion in revenue. But it
seems that people are still holding
out for more powerful M1-powered
MacBooks and iMacs to arrive. Or, they
simply bought a Mac earlier in the year
and weren’t keen to buy another.
Apple doesn’t break down its unit
sales anymore, but CEO Tim Cook
noted that active users topped a
billion for the first time and active
devices topped 1.65 billion devices,
so it’s likely that it sold more than
90 million iPhones. The company
also noted that international sales
accounted for 64 per cent of the
quarter’s revenue, including $21.
billion in China, representing nearly 60
per cent growth. Cook also said Apple
delivered its largest iPad deployment
to schools in Germany and Japan.
In his comments, Cook praised
Apple’s team members and its
service to the community: “We are
also focused on how we can help the
communities we’re a part of build back
strongly and equitably, through efforts
like our Racial Equity and Justice
Initiative as well as our multi-year
commitment to invest $350 billion
throughout the United States.”
As in previous quarters, Apple
declined to offer guidance for its
second quarter due to uncertainty
related to the coronavirus pandemic.
