Apple ha pubblicato i risultati finanziari del terzo trimestre 2011 (conclusosi lo scorso 25 giugno), periodo che ha fatto registrare nuovi record per quanto riguarda le vendite di iPhone e iPad.
Fatturato trimestrale di 28,57 miliardi di dollari e utile netto trimestrale di 7,31 miliardi di dollari sono i dati che emergono dalla pubblicazione dei risultati del terzo trimestre del 2011 e che, se raffrontati con quelli del corrispondente trimestre dello scorso anno (fatturato 15,70 miliardi di dollari, utile netto di 3,25 miliardi), rendono perfettamente l’idea dell’enorme crescita fatta registrare dall’azienda di Cupertino.
Nel terzo trimestre sono stati venduti 20,34 milioni di iPhone (con una crescita del 142% rispetto allo stesso trimestre del 2010) e 9,25 milioni di iPad (con una crescita del 183% rispetto allo stesso trimestre del 2010).
Riportiamo di seguito il comunicato stampa in lingua inglese:
