  • Earnings per share: $2.18 (vs. $2.11 expected)
  • Revenue: $119.58 billion (vs. $117.97 billion expected) - strong beat
  • iPhone: $69.70 billion (vs. $68.55 billion expected) - slight beat
  • iPad: $7.02 billion (vs. $7.06 billion expected) - slight miss
  • Mac: $7.78 billion (vs. $7.9 billion expected) - slight miss
  • Services: $23.12 billion (vs. $23.35 billion expected) - slight miss
  • Apple Watch: $11.95 billion (vs. $11.56 billion expected) - beat
  • China: $20.82 billion (vs. $23.5 billion expected) - significant miss

Apple delivered impressive overall results, exceeding revenue expectations thanks to strong iPhone sales, particularly in emerging markets ex China. However, iPad sales and services fell short of estimates, and China sales significantly missed expectations. The stock price dipped slightly after-hours, reflecting concerns about the Chinese market's competitiveness. While Apple invests in artificial intelligence, its current focus is on the Vision Pro augmented reality product. This suggests the company may face growing competition in the AI space.
