Apple Sells 61 Million iPhones, Generates $58 Billion Revenue in Latest Fiscal Quarter
Driven by sales of more than 61 million iPhones, Apple generated $58 billion in revenue for its second fiscal quarter of 2015.
Revenue was up more than $10 billion from the year-go quarter, and iPhone sales were the strongest ever for a non-launch quarter.
Apple sold 12.6 million iPads, or more than three four million per month, and 4.5 million Macs. Apple generated nearly the same amount of revenue from iPads ($5.4 million) as from Macs ($5.6 billion).
“We are thrilled by the continued strength of iPhone, Mac and the App Store, which drove our best March quarter results ever,” said Tim Cook, Apple CEO. “We’re seeing a higher rate of people switching to iPhone than we’ve experienced in previous cycles, and we’re off to an exciting start to the June quarter with the launch of Apple Watch.”
Last quarter the world’s most valuable company posted record quarterly revenue of $74.6 billion and record quarterly net profit of $18 billion and iPhone unit sales of 74.5 million set a new record.
