Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) |
|
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
|
Basis of Presentation and Preparation |
|
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Apple Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively |
|
“Apple” or the “Company”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all |
|
adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. The preparation of these |
|
condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles |
|
(“GAAP”) requires the use of management estimates. These condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes |
|
should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in its |
|
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”). |
|
The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period that ends on the last Saturday of September. An additional week is included in |
|
the first fiscal quarter every five or six years to realign the Company’s fiscal quarters with calendar quarters, which occurred in the first |
|
fiscal quarter of 2023. The Company’s fiscal years 2024 and 2023 span 52 and 53 weeks, respectively. Unless otherwise stated, |
|
references to particular years, quarters, months and periods refer to the Company’s fiscal years ended in September and the associated |
|
quarters, months and periods of those fiscal years. |
|

|
The Company’s proportion of net sales by disaggregated revenue source was generally consistent for each reportable segment in Note |
|
11, “Segment Information and Geographic Data” for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, except in |
|
Greater China, where iPhone revenue represented a moderately higher proportion of net sales. |
|
As of June 29, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company had total deferred revenue of $12.5 billion and $12.1 billion, respectively. As |
|
of June 29, 2024, the Company expects 64% of total deferred revenue to be realized in less than a year, 25% within one-to-two years, |
|
9% within two-to-three years and 2% in greater than three years. |

The valuation techniques used to measure the fair values of the Company’s Level 2 financial instruments, which generally have |
|
counterparties with high credit ratings, are based on quoted market prices or model-driven valuations using significant inputs derived |
|
from or corroborated by observable market data. |
|

|
As of June 29, 2024 and September 30, 2023, total marketable securities included $14.1 billion and $13.8 billion, respectively, that |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging |
|
The Company may use derivative instruments to partially offset its business exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risk. |
|
However, the Company may choose not to hedge certain exposures for a variety of reasons, including accounting considerations or the |
|
prohibitive economic cost of hedging particular exposures. There can be no assurance the hedges will offset more than a portion of the |
|
financial impact resulting from movements in foreign exchange or interest rates. |
|
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk |
|
To protect gross margins from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, the Company may use forwards, options or other instruments, and |
|
may designate these instruments as cash flow hedges. The Company generally hedges portions of its forecasted foreign currency |
|
exposure associated with revenue and inventory purchases, typically for up to 12 months. |
|
To protect the Company’s foreign currency–denominated term debt or marketable securities from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, |
|
the Company may use forwards, cross-currency swaps or other instruments. The Company designates these instruments as either cash |
|
flow or fair value hedges. As of June 29, 2024, the maximum length of time over which the Company is hedging its exposure to the |
|
variability in future cash flows for term debt–related foreign currency transactions is 18 years. |
|
The Company may also use derivative instruments that are not designated as accounting hedges to protect gross margins from certain |
|
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, as well as to offset a portion of the foreign currency gains and losses generated by the |
|
remeasurement of certain assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. |

Accounts Receivable |

Trade Receivables |
|
The Company’s third-party cellular network carriers accounted for 32% and 41% of total trade receivables as of June 29, 2024 and |
|
September 30, 2023, respectively. The Company requires third-party credit support or collateral from certain customers to limit credit |
|
risk. |
|
Vendor Non-Trade Receivables |
|
The Company has non-trade receivables from certain of its manufacturing vendors resulting from the sale of components to these |
|
vendors who manufacture subassemblies or assemble final products for the Company. The Company purchases these components |
|
directly from suppliers. The Company does not reflect the sale of these components in products net sales. Rather, the Company |
|
recognizes any gain on these sales as a reduction of products cost of sales when the related final products are sold by the Company. As |
|
of June 29, 2024, the Company had two vendors that individually represented 10% or more of total vendor non-trade receivables, which |
|
accounted for 46% and 18%. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had two vendors that individually represented 10% or more of |
|
total vendor non-trade receivables, which accounted for 48% and 23%. |

Note 6 – Income Taxes |
|
European Commission State Aid Decision |
|
On August 30, 2016, the European Commission (the “Commission”) announced its decision that Ireland granted state aid to the |
|
Company by providing tax opinions in 1991 and 2007 concerning the tax allocation of profits of the Irish branches of two subsidiaries of |
|
the Company (the “State Aid Decision”). The State Aid Decision ordered Ireland to calculate and recover additional taxes from the |
|
Company for the period June 2003 through December 2014. Irish legislative changes, effective as of January 2015, eliminated the |
|
application of the tax opinions from that date forward. The Company and Ireland appealed the State Aid Decision to the General Court of |
|
the Court of Justice of the European Union (the “General Court”). On July 15, 2020, the General Court annulled the State Aid Decision. |
|
On September 25, 2020, the Commission appealed the General Court’s decision to the European Court of Justice (the “ECJ”) and a |
|
hearing was held on May 23, 2023. A decision from the ECJ is expected in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company believes it would be |
|
eligible to claim a U.S. foreign tax credit for a portion of any incremental Irish corporate income taxes potentially due related to the State |
|
Aid Decision. |
|
Note 7 – Debt |
|
Commercial Paper |

|
|
|
This Item and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) contain forward-looking statements, within the |
|
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements provide |
|
current expectations of future events based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any |
|
historical or current fact. For example, statements in this Form 10-Q regarding the potential future impact of macroeconomic conditions |
|
on the Company’s business and results of operations are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can also be identified |
|
by words such as “future,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “can,” |
|
“may,” and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and the Company’s actual results may |
|
differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but |
|
are not limited to, those discussed in Part I, Item 1A of the 2023 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q, in each case under |
|
the heading “Risk Factors.” The Company assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements for any reason, |
|
except as required by law. |
|
Unless otherwise stated, all information presented herein is based on the Company’s fiscal calendar, and references to particular years, |
|
quarters, months or periods refer to the Company’s fiscal years ended in September and the associated quarters, months and periods of |
|
those fiscal years. |
|
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the 2023 Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange |
|
Commission (the “SEC”) and the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this |
|
Form 10-Q. |
|
Available Information |
|
The Company periodically provides certain information for investors on its corporate website, www.apple.com, and its investor relations |
|
website, investor.apple.com. This includes press releases and other information about financial performance, information on |
|
environmental, social and governance matters, and details related to the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders. The information |
|
contained on the websites referenced in this Form 10-Q is not incorporated by reference into this filing. Further, the Company’s |
|
references to website URLs are intended to be inactive textual references only. |
|
Business Seasonality and Product Introductions |
|
The Company has historically experienced higher net sales in its first quarter compared to other quarters in its fiscal year due in part to |
|
seasonal holiday demand. Additionally, new product and service introductions can significantly impact net sales, cost of sales and |
|
operating expenses. The timing of product introductions can also impact the Company’s net sales to its indirect distribution channels as |
|
these channels are filled with new inventory following a product launch, and channel inventory of an older product often declines as the |
|
launch of a newer product approaches. Net sales can also be affected when consumers and distributors anticipate a product |
|
introduction. |
|
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company announced the following product and operating system updates: |
|
• |
|
|
|
• |
|
• |
|
|
|
iPad Air®; |
|
iPad Pro®; |
|
iOS 18, macOS® Sequoia, iPadOS® 18, watchOS® 11, visionOS™ 2 and tvOS® 18. |
|
|
|
The Company also announced Apple Intelligence™, a personal intelligence system that uses generative models, which will be available |
|
on certain iPhone, Mac and iPad devices. Apple Intelligence is deeply integrated into iOS 18, macOS Sequoia and iPadOS 18. |
|
Fiscal Period |
|
The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period that ends on the last Saturday of September. An additional week is included in |
|
the first fiscal quarter every five or six years to realign the Company’s fiscal quarters with calendar quarters, which occurred in the first |
|
quarter of 2023. The Company’s fiscal years 2024 and 2023 span 52 and 53 weeks, respectively. |
|
Macroeconomic Conditions |
|
Macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, interest rates and currency fluctuations, have directly and indirectly impacted, and could |
|
in the future materially impact, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. |

|
The Company’s effective tax rate for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 was lower than the statutory federal income tax rate |
|
due primarily to a lower effective tax rate on foreign earnings, the impact of the U.S. federal R&D credit, and tax benefits from sharebased compensation, partially offset by state income taxes. |
|
The Company’s effective tax rate for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 was higher compared to the same periods in 2023 |
|
due primarily to a higher effective tax rate on foreign earnings and lower tax benefits from share-based compensation, partially offset by |
|
lower state income taxes. |
|
Liquidity and Capital Resources |
|
The Company believes its balances of cash, cash equivalents and unrestricted marketable securities, along with cash generated by |
|
ongoing operations and continued access to debt markets, will be sufficient to satisfy its cash requirements and capital return program |
|
over the next 12 months and beyond. |
|
The Company’s contractual cash requirements have not changed materially since the 2023 Form 10-K, except for manufacturing |
|
purchase obligations. |
|
Manufacturing Purchase Obligations |
|
The Company utilizes several outsourcing partners to manufacture subassemblies for the Company’s products and to perform final |
|
assembly and testing of finished products. The Company also obtains individual components for its products from a wide variety of |
|
individual suppliers. As of June 29, 2024, the Company had manufacturing purchase obligations of $38.4 billion, with $38.3 billion |
|
payable within 12 months. |
|
Capital Return Program |
|
In addition to its contractual cash requirements, the Company has authorized share repurchase programs. The programs do not obligate |
|
the Company to acquire a minimum amount of shares. As of June 29, 2024, the Company’s quarterly cash dividend was $0.25 per |
|
share. The Company intends to increase its dividend on an annual basis, subject to declaration by the Board of Directors. |
|
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased $26.0 billion of its common stock and paid dividends and dividend |
|
equivalents of $3.9 billion. |
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
|
Income Taxes |
|
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, |
|
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which will require the Company to disclose |
|
specified additional information in its income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a |
|
quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 will also require the Company to disaggregate its income taxes paid disclosure by federal, state and |
|
foreign taxes, with further disaggregation required for significant individual jurisdictions. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09 in its |
|
fourth quarter of 2026 using a prospective transition method. |

Segment Reporting |
|
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment |
|
Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which will require the Company to disclose segment expenses that are significant and regularly provided |
|
to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). In addition, ASU 2023-07 will require the Company to disclose the title and |
|
position of its CODM and how the CODM uses segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and deciding how |
|
to allocate resources. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-07 in its fourth quarter of 2025 using a retrospective transition method. |
|
Critical Accounting Estimates |
|
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP and the Company’s discussion and analysis of |
|
its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that |
|
affect the amounts reported. Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial |
|
Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the 2023 Form |
|
10-K describe the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated |
|
financial statements. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates since the 2023 Form 10-K. |
|
Item 3. |
|
|
|
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
|
|
|
There have been no material changes to the Company’s market risk during the first nine months of 2024. For a discussion of the |
|
Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to the Company’s market risk disclosures set forth in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and |
|
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of the 2023 Form 10-K. |

Controls and Procedures |
|
|
|
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures |
|
Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, the Company’s principal |
|
executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in |
|
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were effective as of June 29, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance that |
|
information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, |
|
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the |
|
Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions |
|
regarding required disclosure. |
|
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting |
|
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2024, which were identified |
|
in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have |
|
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. |

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION |
|
Item 1. |
|
|
|
Legal Proceedings |
|
|
|
Digital Markets Act Investigations |
|
On March 25, 2024, the Commission announced that it had opened two formal noncompliance investigations against the Company |
|
under the European Union (“EU”) Digital Markets Act (the “DMA”). The Commission’s investigations concern (1) Article 5(4) of the DMA, |
|
which relates to how developers may communicate and promote offers to end users for apps distributed through the App Store as well |
|
as how developers may conclude contracts with those end users; and (2) Article 6(3) of the DMA, which relates to default settings, |
|
uninstallation of apps, and a web browser choice screen on iOS. On June 24, 2024, the Commission announced its preliminary findings |
|
in the Article 5(4) investigation alleging that the Company’s App Store rules are in breach of the DMA and announced that it had opened |
|
a third formal investigation against the Company regarding whether the Company’s new contractual requirements for third-party app |
|
developers and app marketplaces may violate the DMA. If the Commission makes a final determination that there has been a violation, it |
|
can issue a cease and desist order and may impose fines up to 10% of the Company’s annual worldwide net sales. Although any |
|
decision by the Commission can be appealed to the General Court of the EU, the effectiveness of the Commission’s order would apply |
|
immediately while the appeal is pending, unless a stay of the order is granted. The Company believes that it complies with the DMA and |
|
has continued to make changes to its compliance plan in response to feedback and engagement with the Commission. |
|
Department of Justice Lawsuit |
|
On March 21, 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and a number of state and district attorneys general filed a civil antitrust |
|
lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against the Company alleging monopolization or attempted |
|
monopolization in the markets for “performance smartphones” and “smartphones” in violation of U.S. antitrust laws. The DOJ is seeking |
|
equitable relief to redress the alleged anticompetitive behavior. In addition, various civil litigation matters have been filed in state and |
|
federal courts in the U.S. alleging similar violations of U.S. antitrust laws and seeking monetary damages and other nonmonetary relief. |
|
The Company believes it has substantial defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself. |
|
Epic Games |
|
Epic Games, Inc. (“Epic”) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (the “California District Court”) |
|
against the Company alleging violations of federal and state antitrust laws and California’s unfair competition law based upon the |
|
Company’s operation of its App Store. The California District Court found that certain provisions of the Company’s App Store Review |
|
Guidelines violate California’s unfair competition law and issued an injunction enjoining the Company from prohibiting developers from |
|
including in their apps external links that direct customers to purchasing mechanisms other than Apple in-app purchasing. The injunction |
|
applies to apps on the U.S. storefront of the iOS and iPadOS App Store. On January 16, 2024, the Company implemented a plan to |
|
comply with the injunction and filed a statement of compliance with the California District Court. A motion by Epic disputing the |
|
Company’s compliance plan and seeking to enforce the injunction, which the Company has opposed, is pending before the California |
|
District Court. The Company believes it has substantial defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself. |
|
Other Legal Proceedings |
|
The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims that have not been fully resolved and that have arisen in the ordinary |
|
course of business. The Company settled certain matters during the third quarter of 2024 that did not individually or in the aggregate |
|
have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or operating results. The outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one |
|
or more legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts above management’s expectations, the |
|
Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected. |
|
Item 1A. |
|
|
|
Risk Factors |
|
|
|
The Company’s business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition and stock price can be affected by a number of factors, |
|
whether currently known or unknown, including those described in Part I, Item 1A of the 2023 Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of the Form |
|
10-Q for the quarter ended March 30, 2024 (the “second quarter 2024 Form 10-Q”), in each case under the heading “Risk Factors.” |
|
When any one or more of these risks materialize from time to time, the Company’s business, reputation, results of operations, financial |
|
condition and stock price can be materially and adversely affected. Except for the risk factor disclosed in Part II, Item 1A of the second |
|
quarter 2024 Form 10-Q, which is hereby incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q, there have been no |
|
material changes to the Company’s risk factors since the 2023 Form 10-K. |
