Overview

  • Apple will report fiscal third-quarter results shortly after the market closes on Thursday, July 30, with an earnings call an hour later.
  • The company enters the print after a quarter that showed accelerating growth, including a 17% revenue increase and a 22% rise in diluted EPS for the prior reported period.
  • Sales strength is anchored by the iPhone 17 line and a well-received entry-level MacBook Neo while high-margin services revenue reached a new record.
  • Analysts are modeling roughly 16% revenue growth and about 20% EPS growth for the July quarter, a forecast that sets a clear bar for the company to beat.
  • Shares sit near an all-time high after a roughly 58% year-over-year rise and the board approved an additional $100 billion buyback, but short-term buying before the report carries notable volatility risk for retail and institutional investors.
