Apple (AAPL) released third-quarter results on Thursday, beating analysts’ expectations and posting a record $83 billion in revenue despite fears of rising inflation.
Here are the most important numbers from the report, compiled by Bloomberg, and how they compare to Wall Street expectations.

After the news, Apple’s stock price jumped more than 3%.
“Our June quarter results continue to demonstrate our ability to effectively manage our business despite the challenging business environment. reached all-time highs across all geographic segments and product categories,” Apple CFO Luca Maestri said in a statement.
Despite record earnings, Apple reported that net profit fell 10.5% year-over-year.
Apple is grappling with a number of issues, including rising inflation hitting consumers and COVID lockdowns in China hitting domestic sales and production.
The company’s market capitalization has also taken a hit amid a major decline in technology, dropping below the $3 trillion market to $2.5 trillion.
But according to Morgan Stanley, this is all short-term trouble for iPhone makers. In a memo, Erik W. Woodring suggests that Apple’s services business could help push the tech giant’s market cap back into his $3 trillion market.
Services revenue was especially strong in the third quarter, jumping from $17.5 billion last year to $19.6 billion.

Apple is widely expected to launch the iPhone 14 series alongside the Apple Watch Series 8 later this fall. Also, the product will be announced a few weeks before the end of the quarter, so it should not have a significant impact on the company’s fourth quarter earnings, but should boost its first quarter 2023 results.
Apple is also said to be prepping its entry into the AR/VR space with its own headset, likely to launch in 2023.
