Apple has delivered impressive third-quarter results for 2025, surpassing Wall Street expectations on both revenue and earnings, thanks to robust iPhone sales and steady growth in services.

For the fiscal third quarter, Apple reported revenue of $94 billion, setting a new record for this period and marking a 10% increase compared to last year. The company’s earnings per share climbed to $1.57, up 12% year-over-year, both figures exceeding analyst forecasts. This performance underscores Apple’s resilience and ability to drive growth even in a dynamic market environment.

A key driver behind these results has been the continued demand for the iPhone 16 series, which contributed substantially to the company’s top line and marked a milestone with the shipment of Apple’s three billionth iPhone. Additionally, the launch of the latest MacBook Air with the M4 chip proved successful, lifting Mac sales by 15%. Meanwhile, Apple’s services division, which includes subscriptions and digital content, posted a 13% revenue increase, reaching $27.4 billion for the quarter.

Growth was not limited to North America; Apple saw double-digit gains in emerging markets and a 4% revenue increase in Greater China, demonstrating the company’s broad global reach.

Despite these positive results, Apple shares experienced a slight decline in after-hours trading. However, the underlying financials and continued strength across multiple segments highlight the company’s solid foundation and operational excellence.

Apple’s blend of innovative hardware releases, expanding services, and strong international presence continues to position it as a leader in the tech sector, delivering consistent value to its shareholders and customers alike.
