Apple yesterday presented its economic results for the months of April, May and June 2021, which has been the second quarter of the year and which they call Q3 2021 because the last months of the previous year consider it already part of the new anus. In these we can see that the company continues to enjoy good economic health and has increased its income by 36% . Here we tell you all the details.
Apple sells more iPhones, more Macs, more iPads, and more everything
Despite the fact that last year was one of the hardest economically for many companies and individuals due to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the truth is that Apple knew how to weather the storm very well and maintained good revenue figures. However, this year it has not stopped growing and its income figures in the second quarter of the year demonstrate this, seeing an increase in income in all areas , as you can see in the following table:
| Q3 2021 (billion $) | Q3 2020 (billion $) |
|---|---|
| 39,870 | 27,018 |
| Q3 2021 (billion $) | Q3 2020 (billion $) |
|---|---|
| 8,235 | 7,079 |
| Q3 2021 (billion $) | Q3 2020 (billion $) |
|---|---|
| 7,368 | 6,582 |
| Q3 2021 (billion $) | Q3 2020 (billion $) |
|---|---|
| 8,775 | 6,450 |
| Q3 2021 (billion $) | Q3 2020 (billion $) |
|---|---|
| 17,486 | 13,156 |
| Q3 2021 (billion $) | Q3 2020 (billion $) |
|---|---|
| 81,434 | 59,685 |
It must be said that, unlike what it did in the past, Apple no longer offers specific data on the number of units sold. However, we can intuit that the sales of its devices have increased because the income in each one has risen in such a way that it could only correspond to it, since there have been no price increases. The iPhone continues to be the company’s flagship product, just as the iPad has once again been increased in large part thanks to the new ‘Pro’ models with an M1 chip. Identical situation to that of the Macs that have not stopped growing in income since the arrival of the Apple Silicon.
And although accessories are also something striking and that has also risen, we are powerfully struck by how Apple’s commitment to services continues to bear good results, having gone from entering $ 13,156 million in the same period of 2020 to 17,486 million in this second quarter of 2021. Both the Apple One packages and separate services (Apple Music, Apple TV +, iCloud, etc.) seem to work very well for the company to the point of being the highest income behind the iPhone.
They have also grown in all territories
If we go to the detail of Apple’s income for each territory we can also see that the rise has been significant. In the following table you can see:
| America | Europe | China | Japan | Rest of Asia Pacific | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 35,870 | 18,943 | 14,762 | 6,464 | 5,395 | 81,434 |
| America | Europe | China | Japan | Rest of Asia Pacific | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 27,018 | 14,173 | 9,329 | 4,966 | 4,199 | 59,865 |
There is not a single territory in which Apple has not increased its level of income, but what happened in China draws powerfully attention and once again makes it clear that this territory is one of the best markets for many technology companies such as Apple. In this Asian country, the company almost doubles its income in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period of 2020, something on the other hand understandable if we take into account that precisely China was one of the most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic , being in fact the place where the first virus outbreak originated.
In total, Apple has entered 81,434 million dollars in the last three months, which is 36% more than last year as we said at the beginning. We will have to wait to see the results of this new quarter that began in July to see how the company progresses, especially if we take into account that it is usually one of the most “weak” as it is at the doors of the new iPhone.
