Apple Reports Record Quarter but Warns of Slower Growth Due to Supply Constraints
Apple reported a record June quarter with 16% revenue growth driven by strong iPhone and Mac sales, including significant gains in India. However, the company warned of supply chain constraints, especially shortages of advanced chips, which are expected to slow revenue growth to 9-11% in the September quarter, below Wall Street estimates. CEO Tim Cook emphasized supply limitations rather than demand issues, noting efforts to find alternative suppliers amid ongoing global chip shortages. Shares fell 5-6% in after-hours trading following the cautious forecast.
