REUTERS: Apple on Thursday delivered blowout quarterly results, reporting year-on-year revenue gains across every category and in every geography as consumers working and learning from home during the COVID-19 pandemic turned to its products and services.
The results, which included iPhone sales some US$4 billion above of analyst expectations, came on the same day that US gross domestic product collapsed at a 32.9 per cent annualized rate last quarter, the nation's worst economic performance since the Great Depression. "I think the economic stimulus that was in place - and I'm not just focused on the US, but more broadly - was a help," Cook told Reuters.
The company also saw strong sales in its greater China region, where aggressive pricing during a June holiday shopping season and lower-priced iPhone SE model released in April helped boost sales 2 per cent to US$9.33 billion from US$9.16 billion a year earlier. Sales in its services segment, which also includes offerings such as iCloud and Apple Music, rose 14.8per cent to US$13.16 billion, compared with US$11.46 billion a year ago and analyst expectations of US$13.18 billion. Cook told Reuters that Apple has 550 million paying subscribers on its platform, up from 515 in the previous quarter.
