In urma cu cateva minute, compania Apple a anuntat rezultatele financiare pentru Q2 2013 (in Romania, primul trimestru fiscal al anului). In acest trimestrul incheiat in urma cu aproape o luna, Apple a avut incasari de 43.6 $ miliarde de dolari si un profit net de 9.5 miliarde de dolari, sau 10.09 $ per actiune. In comparatie cu anul trecut, Apple a avut incasari mai mari, dar un profit mai mic. In acelasi trimestru fiscal, anul trecut Apple incasa 39.2 $ miliarde de dolari si avea un profit net de 11.6 miliarde de dolari, sau 12.30 $ per actiune. Marja bruta pentru acest trimestru fiscal a fost de 37.5 procente in comparatie cu cele 47.4 procente obtinute anul trecut.

In Q2 2013, Apple a vandut 37.4 milioane de iPhone-uri, in comparatie cu cele 35.1 milioane de terminale vandute anul trecut, a vandut 19.5 miliarde de iPad-uri, in crestere fata de cele 11.8 milioane de dispozitive vandute anul trecut, si a vandut putin sub 4 milioane de Mac-uri in comparatie cu cele 4 milioane de computere vandute anul trecut.

Apple a mai declarat si crestere cu 15 procente a valorii dividendelor per actiune, incepand cu 16 mai urmand sa plateasca actionarilor dividende in valoare de 3.05 $ per actiune. Apple plateste anual 11 miliarde de dolari dividende, fiind unul dintre cei mai mari platitori de dividende din lume. Compania din Cupertino isi declara intentia ca pana in 2015 sa returneze investitorilor 100 de miliarde de dolari in programul de returnare a dividendelor si rascumparare a actiunilor. Consiliul director al companiei a aprobat si rascumpararea de actiuni in valoare de 60 de miliarde de dolari de la actionari, o crestere semnificativa fata de cei 10 miliarde de dolari pe care i-au aprobat anul trecut. Conform celor din Cupertino, compania Apple detine in acest moment 145 miliarde de dolari in lichiditati si investitii, 102 miliarde de dolari aflandu-se in afara SUA. Actiunile companiei americane au crescut cu peste 5 procente dupa anuntarea acestor rezultate, care, asa cum poate ne-am asteptat deja, sunt peste previziunile analistilor.

Acum este Apple tine o conferinta audio transmisa live in care CEO Tim Cook si CFO Peter Oppenheimer discuta aceste incasari si raspund intrebarilor unor jurnalisti.

Trebuie mentionat faptul ca primul trimestru (Q2), spre deosebire de ultimul trimestru fiscal al fiecarui an (Q1) este putin mai slab, deoarece la sfarsitul anului sunt sarbatorile de iarna in care oamenii cheltuie multi bani pe cadouri, si practic vanzarile de produse sunt foarte ridicate. Totodata, spre deosebire de ultimul trimestru fiscal al anului trecut in care a lansat cele mai importante produse, Apple nu a lansat nimic important in 2013, doar a adus un upgrade minor MacBook Pro-ului Retina si a lansat iPad-ul generatia a patra cu o capacitate de stocare de 128 GB.
