Apple CEO John Ternus Faces First Earnings Call Amid Rising Memory Costs and Strong iPhone Sales
Apple's new CEO John Ternus will lead his first earnings call amid rising memory-chip costs that may slow profit growth. Investors will focus on the holiday-quarter outlook, early demand for the iPhone 18 Pro lineup, and Apple's AI strategy, including updates to Siri. Despite cost pressures, Apple reported fiscal fourth-quarter revenue of $114.48 billion, exceeding estimates, driven by strong iPhone sales and price increases. The company is also expanding its product range with foldable phones, touch-screen laptops, and smart home devices, aiming to diversify revenue streams.
