SEATTLE - Apple Inc. blew past expectations with its latest quarterly report on Tuesday, selling almost the same number of tablets as IPAD new Macs sold.
Apple has also provided higher returns than Wall Street expected orientation, something the company rarely does. Investors sent shares in after-hours trading.
Apple said its profit rose 78 percent to $ 3,250,000,000, or $ 3.51 per share, from $ 1,800,000,000, or $ 2.01 per share a year ago.
Revenue for April to June period rose 61 percent last year to $ 15.7 billion, making the company more revenue for the quarter in the world, even surpassing the recent holiday season.
That's better than Wall Street predicted. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had forecast net profit per share $ 3.11 $ 14,700,000,000 in revenue.
Apple sold 8. 4 million iPhones, up 61 percent over last year, although the company stopped shipping over previous generations of iPhones after the model update, the iPhone in April, was announced in early June. Apple sold 1.7 million new iPhone 4 during the last three days of the quarter.
Apple also said it sold about 3.3 million in the first three months iPads gadget on the market.
Both the iPhone IPAD and 4 have been exhausted in most shops and take a few weeks to send the new buyers. During the conference, an analyst asked if Apple intentionally made very few of the gadgets.
"No intention to create a shortage for tinnitus," said Apple chief operating officer, Tim Cook. "We are currently still selling both of these products as quickly as we can do."
Cook said he does not know when Apple have enough of the devices on hand to meet demand.
Some analysts feared that the release of IPAD, you can use to surf the Web, check email, watch movies and read books, among other tasks will be to attract people who might otherwise buy a Macintosh computer.
The fear seems to have been unfounded: Mac unit sales jumped 33 percent to 3.5 billion, helped by the CFO Peter Oppenheimer called record sales to educational institutions in the quarter.
Cook said it was too early to say whether the IPAD can steal revenue from other product categories in the future.
Apple's guidance is consistently lower than Wall Street estimates, so it is remarkable that Apple said it expects 18 billion U.S. dollars in revenue for the current quarter, compared with Street estimates of $ 17 million .
Rajesh Ghai LLC ThinkEquity said the outlook seems surprisingly high to be an attempt to redirect attention of investors walk from "antennagate" - a problem with the design of the iPhone antenna 4 asks Apple to the promise of free cases through September - and again a seemingly insatiable consumer demand for iPhones and iPads.
Shares of Apple rose $ 7.36, or 2.9 percent, to $ 259.25 in electronic trading after the publication of results.
The company said it will wait until the October-December quarter-over quarter to recognize about $ 175 million in revenue to account for the cases without it plans to ship to buyers from the end of the current quarter.
The company did not draw the case will cost.
Apple expects to earn $ 3.44 per share for the current quarter than analysts are predicting $ 3.83.
Although several technology companies like Intel Corp. and IBM Corp., saw revenue hit in the quarter by the effects of a strong U.S. dollar, Apple does not seem to waver.
"I'm sure we're seeing a negative impact, but simply does not matter, because they are selling so many things," said Andy Hargreaves, an analyst with Pacific Crest Securities.
Apple, based in Cupertino, Calif., sold 9.4 million iPods in the quarter, up 8 percent from a year ago.
