Apple Announces Largest-Ever $110 Billion Share Buyback As iPhone Sales Drop
Apple reported fiscal second-quarter earnings that topped estimates, despite a 10% drop in iPhone sales. The company also announced that its board had authorized $110 billion in share repurchases, "a 22% increase over last year's $90 billion authorization," notes CNBC. "It's the largest buyback in history, ahead of Apple's previous repurchases." From the report: Apple did not provide formal guidance, but Apple CEO Tim Cook told CNBC's Steve Kovach that overall sales would grow in the "low single digits" during the June quarter. Apple posted $81.8 billion in revenue during the year-ago June quarter and LSEG analysts were looking for a forecast of $83.23 billion. On an earnings call with analysts, Apple finance chief Luca Maestri said the company expected the current quarter will deliver double-digit year-over-year percentage growth in iPad sales. What's more, he said the Services division is forecast to continue growing at about the current high rate it's achieved during the past two quarters. Apple reported net income of $23.64 billion, or $1.53 per share, down 2% from $24.16 billion, or $1.52 per share, in the year-earlier period. Cook told CNBC that sales in the fiscal second quarter suffered from a difficult comparison to the year-earlier period, when the company realized $5 billion in delayed iPhone 14 sales from Covid-based supply issues. "If you remove that $5 billion from last year's results, we would have grown this quarter on a year-over-year basis," Cook said. "And so that's how we look at it internally from how the company is performing." Apple said iPhone sales fell nearly 10% to $45.96 billion, suggesting weak demand for the current generation of smartphones, which were released in September. The sales were in line with analyst estimates, and Cook said that without last year's increased sales, iPhone revenue would have been flat. Mac sales were up 4% to $7.45 billion, but they are still below the segment's high-water mark set in 2022. Cook said sales were driven by the company's new MacBook Air models which were released with an upgraded M3 chip in March. Other Products, which is how Apple reports sales of its Apple Watch and AirPods headphones, was down 10% year over year to $7.9 billion. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Best Mac Studio deals available now
Macworld Apple updated the Mac Studio in June 2023. The Mac Studio now comes with either a M2 Max or M2 Ultra chip. In our review of the M2 Max Mac Studio we were impressed by its processing power, port flexibility, and design. We are already seeing some deals on the M2-generation Mac Studio. You may also find the M1-generation on sale and if you do you may find a good discount on that model, just keep in mind, if you are outside the U.S., that the old model already had a lower price than the M2-model. If you want to buy a Mac Studio, and get the best deal possible, you’ve come to the right place. We’re looking at where you can buy the Mac Studio at the best price. Best Mac Studio deals There are no deals in the U.S. right now, but there are discounts in the U.K. U.K.: AO, Mac Studio M2 Max: £1,906 (£193 off, MSRP £2,099) What you need to know In March 2022 Apple introduced its most powerful Mac yet, and then, in June 2023 it updated it with M2 Max and M2 Ultra chips. At the same time, Apple also introduced an Mac Pro with the same specs (the M2 Max and M2 Ultra), but that model has some other features the Mac Studio lacks and a higher price. The Mac Studio can be configured with a M2 Max chip, as seen in the 14in and 16in MacBook Pro, or you can choose an M2 Ultra, which is essentially two M2 Max chips. Read about how the M2 Pro Mac mini compares to the Mac Studio. The Mac Studio starts at $1,999/£2,099 for the M2 Max model. The Mac Studio with M2 Ultra starts at $3,999/£4,199. There are also various build-to-order options. Note that the prices for the previous generation were lower, as you can see below.
