Revenue for Apple’s most recent quarter totaled $81.8 billion, down 1 percent from last year. Profit edged up 2 percent from a year ago to $19.9 billion, or $1.26 per share.
The earnings were better than the $1.20 per share projected by analysts polled by FactSet Research, while revenue matched analyst forecasts. “Investors appear to be reacting to the slight miss in iPhone sales, but I wouldn’t read too much into it as many consumers are holding out until the next iPhone release,” said Investing.com analyst Jesse Cohen.
By contrast, Apple has held its ground while still managing to generate eye-popping profits. It has also laid the groundwork for potential growth, recently unveiling a sleek $3,500 headset that many analysts believe will introduce the still-geeky realm of virtual reality to a wider audience.Apple’s performance capped a succession of mostly positive quarterly reports from Big Tech companies regaining their stride after stumbling through much of year.
