Apple reported an $18 billion profit for the final three months of 2015, beating analysts expectations, but warned its revenues could decline in the coming quarter — a drop that would be the first such quarterly year-on-year decline in 13 years.
Apple shares have fallen 11.5% in the last year going into Tuesday's earnings report, with several of Apple's suppliers warning of soft demand for new iPhones. Apple's stock has fallen further than the tech-heavy Nasdaq, which is down 4% in the same period, and the S&P 500, which has fallen 7%.
iPhone sales peak each year in the holiday season, and they were flat in the last quarter of 2015 relative to the same period a year prior. For the coming quarter, Apple projected revenues between $50 billion and $53 billion, down from the $58 billion it made in the first three months of 2015.
Apple sold 74.8 million iPhones, just below what analysts expected but slightly ahead of the 74.5 million iPhones Apple sold in the last three months of 2014, in what was one of the most successful quarters in corporate history.
