Apple has announced profits of $1.23 Billion for Q3 2009. Apple stated they had $8.34 billion in revenue and net quarterly profit of $1.23 billion, or $1.35 per diluted share. Compare this to the year-ago quarter results of $7.46 billion and net quarterly profit of $1.07 billion, or $1.19 per diluted share, and you see a substantial jump.
All of this money was generated from Apple shipping 2.6 million Macintosh computers (a 4% increase over the year-ago quarter), 10.2 million iPods (7% decline from year-ago quarter), and 5.2 million iPhones (a massive 626% increase over last year).
“We’re making our most innovative products ever and our customers are responding,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “We’re thrilled to have sold over 5.2 million iPhones during the quarter and users have downloaded more than 1.5 billion applications from our App Store in its first year.”
Apple expects total revenue of $8.7 billion to $8.9 billion and earnings per diluted share of $1.18 to $1.23, for fiscal quarter 4 of 2009.
