Week 105 – QotW – Apple Q2 2017 Earnings

Beyond Devices Podcast

We're back with another deep dive, this time around our quarterly review of Apple's earnings for the June 2017 quarter, Apple's fiscal Q3. We talk through three sets of things: the numbers announced for the quarter, the guidance offered for next quarter, and additional comments on topics like China, augmented reality, autonomy, and original video content. We dive into the performance of Apple's various business lines, both in terms of what's been happening and what we expect to happen going forward, and quite a bit more. Here are some links relevant to today's discussion: • Apple's earnings press release: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2017/08/apple-reports-third-quarter-results/ • Jan's take for Tech Narratives: https://www.technarratives.com/2017/08/01/?-apple-reports-accelerating-growth-first-ipad-unit-growth-in-four-years/ Jan also mentioned the new Tech Narratives Podcast, which you can find on SoundCloud (https://soundcloud.com/user-500920953), iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/tech-narratives-podcast/id1252808525?mt=2), and Overcast (https://overcast.fm/itunes1252808525/tech-narratives-podcast), and which should be available in many other podcast apps too.
