Numbers To Consider Ahead Of Apple’s First Quarter FY 2015 Earnings Call
Apple is scheduled to hold its first quarter results conference call on Tuesday, Jan. 27 beginning at 2 p.m. PST. Before they do, some numbers to consider:
$57.6 billion
Apple reported revenue of $57.6 billion during the first quarter of 2014. This included a quarterly net profit of $13.1 billion, or $14.50 per diluted share.
26 million
During the first quarter of 2014, Apple sold a record 26 million iPads. Since then, sales for Apple’s tablet line have steadily declined, leading to rumors that an “iPad Pro” will be launched later this year with a stylus in tow.
51 million
Another record was broken during the first quarter of 2014, as Apple reported iPhone sales of 51 million units. That record is likely to be broken when Apple announces its latest numbers on Jan. 27.
This is the first full quarter when iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus sales are included.
4.8 million
Last year, Apple sold 4.8 million Macs between October and December 2013. This compared to 4.1 million in the year-ago quarter.
$106
Apple’s stock price is down around 4 percent since the beginning of the year. On Friday, Jan. 16, it closed at $105.99 per share. During the last year, the stock is up just over 37 percent.
As noted on Apple’s Investor Relations webpage, Apple’s Q1 2015 conference call will take place on Tuesday, Jan. 27, at 2 p.m. PST / 5 p.m. EST.
It will be accessible via audio webcast at this link. If you have an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad running iOS 4.2 or above, any Mac running OS X 10.6.8 or above, or any PC running Quicktime 7 or later, you’ll be able to listen to the call live on your device.
