Apple will release its Q1 2025 earnings report on January 30, drawing attention from investors and analysts. This marks the first earnings call for Kevan Parekh, Apple’s newly appointed Chief Financial Officer. Parekh replaced Luca Maestri, and investors will closely watch how he handles Apple’s financial strategy.
iPhone Sales Expected to Drive Growth
Apple’s Q1 earnings typically show its highest revenue due to holiday season sales. The iPhone 16 series and Apple Watch updates likely played a key role in driving revenue. In Q4 2024, Apple earned $94.93 billion, up from $89.5 billion the previous year. Analysts expect Q1 2025 to maintain this upward trend.
Product Performance and Revenue Expectations
Apple reported $119.58 billion in revenue for Q1 2024, reflecting 2% growth. This year, analysts predict revenue between $119.56 billion and $129.89 billion. The iPhone and Apple Services are expected to perform well, while Mac and iPad sales may see mixed results. New M4 Mac models could boost Mac sales, but iPad demand remains uncertain.
Wall Street Forecasts
Experts from Yahoo Finance, TipRanks, and Zacks estimate $124 billion in revenue and earnings per share (EPS) between $2.34 and $2.36. Apple’s services sector, which includes App Store, iCloud, and Apple TV+, could bring in over $26 billion, marking 13.2% growth year over year.
What’s Next for Apple?
Looking ahead, Apple plans to expand Apple Intelligence and enhance AI-driven services. Investors will watch how iPhone 16 Pro models and M4-powered devices impact revenue. As Apple navigates changing market conditions, its Q1 2025 earnings report will reveal critical insights into its future strategies.
