Apple Inc. Common Stock (AAPL) Earnings TODAY📆⏰

Apple Inc. Common Stock is expected* to report earnings on 01/30/2025 after market close. The report will be for the fiscal Quarter ending Dec 2024. According to Zacks Investment Research, based on 11 analysts’ forecasts, the consensus EPS forecast for the quarter is $2.36. The reported EPS for the same quarter last year was $2.18. BARRON’S: When Apple reports its fiscal first quarter results on Thursday, the stakes are particularly high. Here’s why: At half of total revenue in fiscal 2024, iPhone sales are always paramount in Apple’s financials. But the smartphone takes on special importance in the company’s fiscal first quarter, the holiday quarter, which is the biggest in Apple’s calendar. It is also typically the first full quarter of sales for each new iPhone model and is often a bellwether for the rest of the fiscal year. Wall Street analysts see only a 1.4% annual increase in iPhone sales from a year before, so it may mean another year of low iPhone growth, like in fiscal 2022 through 2024. Two regional segments will draw the attention of analysts. Sales in China, once a big driver of growth for Apple, were down 8% in fiscal 2024. However, the last quarter was flat with the previous year, potentially indicating that Apple’s troubles in China have bottomed. The other segment is what Apple calls “Europe,” but also contains fast-growing markets for Apple in India and the Middle East. In fiscal 2024, “Europe” was Apple’s fastest growing regional segment, and investors will want to know if that continues. The services segment, driven primarily by App Store and product support, has been the top grower for several years now,and has taken on even more importance with product sales flagging. Product sales were down 1% in fiscal 2024, while services revenue rose by 13%. Services also come with higher gross margins, 74% in 2024, versus 37% for products. But as the segment has matured, services revenue growth has slowed from where it was before 2022, and investors will be monitoring for any further slippage.
