iPhone drives record September quarter revenue
Services revenue reaches new all-time high
Apple® today announced financial results for its fiscal 2024
fourth quarter ended September 28, 2024. The Company posted
quarterly revenue of $94.9 billion, up 6 percent year over year,
and quarterly diluted earnings per share of $0.97. Diluted earnings
per share was $1.64,1 up 12 percent year over year when excluding
the one-time charge recognized during the fourth quarter of 2024
related to the impact of the reversal of the European General
Court’s State Aid decision.
“Today Apple is reporting a new September quarter revenue record
of $94.9 billion, up 6 percent from a year ago,” said Tim Cook,
Apple’s CEO. “During the quarter, we were excited to announce our
best products yet, with the all-new iPhone 16 lineup, Apple Watch
Series 10, AirPods 4, and remarkable features for hearing health
and sleep apnea detection. And this week, we released our first set
of features for Apple Intelligence, which sets a new standard for
privacy in AI and supercharges our lineup heading into the holiday
season.”
“Our record business performance during the September quarter
drove nearly $27 billion in operating cash flow, allowing us to
return over $29 billion to our shareholders,” said Luca Maestri,
Apple’s CFO. “We are very pleased that our active installed base of
devices reached a new all-time high across all products and all
geographic segments, thanks to our high levels of customer
satisfaction and loyalty.”
Apple’s board of directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.25
per share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable on
November 14, 2024 to shareholders of record as of the close of
business on November 11, 2024.
Apple will provide live streaming of its Q4 2024 financial
results conference call beginning at 2:00 p.m. PT on October 31,
2024 at apple.com/investor/earnings-call. The webcast will be
available for replay for approximately two weeks thereafter.

(a)
These adjustments reconcile certain of the
Company’s GAAP results of operations to its non-GAAP results of
operations. The Company believes that the presentation of results
excluding the impact of the reversal of the European General
Court’s State Aid decision provides meaningful supplemental
information to both management and investors that is indicative of
the Company’s core operating results and facilitates comparison of
operating results across reporting periods. The Company uses these
non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results as well as
for internal planning and forecasting purposes. These non-GAAP
measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company’s
GAAP results.
(b)
Non-GAAP adjustments to provision for
income taxes and net income to reflect the impact of the reversal
of the European General Court’s State Aid decision recognized
during the fourth quarter of 2024. On September 10, 2024, the
European Court of Justice announced that it had set aside the 2020
judgment of the European General Court and confirmed the European
Commission’s 2016 State Aid decision. As a result, during the
fourth quarter of 2024 the Company recorded a one-time income tax
charge of $10.2 billion, net, which represents $15.8 billion
payable to Ireland via release of restricted funds held in escrow,
partially offset by a U.S. foreign tax credit of $4.8 billion and a
decrease in unrecognized tax benefits of $823 million. For
additional information, refer to Note 7, “Income Taxes” of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements that will be included in
Part II, Item 8 of the Company's fiscal 2024 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
(c)
Represents the per-share impact of the
non-GAAP adjustments to net income.
