Apple has presented its financial results of the second fiscal quarter of 2025, with revenues of 95.4 billion dollars and a Net profit of 24.8 billion dollarsovercoming the expectations of analysts.
However, the shares of the company fell more than 4% in operations after closing due to concerns about tariffs and sales in China, something that is still very pending for all today, and we do not know where it will go.
Apple beats forecasts, but sinks in the stock market
And it seemed that the arrival of Donald Trump was going to be good for his country's market, however, so many changes of opinion, tariffs and instability, began an economic war that has not helped anyone to grow in the stock market, although, as we have seen these days, Apple would have even exceeded the expectations of income and benefits.
We can summarize everything presented by Apple and its future at different points:
- Product income: The iPhone generated 46.84 billion dollars (a 2%increase), the iPad grew 15%and Mac by 7%. The services reached 26.65 billion dollars, establishing a new record.
- Impact of tariffs: Apple anticipates a cost increase of up to $ 900 million in the quarter of June due to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. To mitigate this, the company is moving the production of iPhones to India and other products to Vietnam, although this will take its time.
- IA development: The improvements in Siri and other artificial intelligence functions have been delayed, since Apple seeks to ensure high quality standards before launch.
- Legal challenges: Apple faces regulatory pressures, including a recent sentence that could allow companies such as Spotify and Epic Games to avoid the PP Store payment system (already approved).
- Shares repurchase: The Board of Directors approved a sharing repurchase program per 100 billion and increased the dividend by 4%, to 0.26 dollars per share.
All this has led Apple to fall into the stock market, at least in today, which could suppose losses for their shareholders, who would not be very concerned due to the results presented by the company, which generates stability, despite the fact that points such as the evolution of AI, or the end of the commissions because of Epic Games could make the next quarter not so good.
And you, do you consider that these data are good or bad for Apple? On the one hand, we have enough positive things, such as that increase in dividends, or profits, overcoming what was expected, which after all is the most important, however, the rest of the news, as well as their investors, for now they have doubts, hence the drop of the price per share per share.
Leave us a comment with your opinion and if you think the issue of tariffs and China will be resolved, or we have conflict for a while. Apple is calm, and for now there would be nothing to fear, but we will see how everything follows.
