Great stuff. I will be updating my July numbers but at first glance it seems we are in violent agreement on everything except my iPhone number is a bit higher and my iPad number is a bit lower.

Andy M. Zaky said...

Very nice. I, like Horace, will be updating my numbers within the next week or so as well.

Diego said...

Thanks again for this service, Deag. That $733 25x target can't happen, right? There will be a point at which AAPL has saturated the market with iPads and iPhones, met demand with those products and when the stock's value and its PE subsequently levels out, no?

Horace Dediu said...

Anything can happen to a stock price. It can go to $40 or it can go to $1000. Plan accordingly.

I've updated my estimates here: http://www.asymco.com/2010/10/04/updated-estimates-for-apples-fourth-quarter-earnings/

Thanks for this. I know I've been whining for some numbers and now I have them. Wow! These numbers are amazing!

JavaJack said...

when do they report the next quarter?

Daniel Tello said...

The "next" quarter as in the current one ending in Dec? I would guess around Jan 18. Apple should post the date soon after the quarter ends (xmas day).

The market has been spooked about Apple being #2 in market cap, never mind whether or not that is deserved.

For several months, analysts have consistently mentioned $300+ as a target price for the stock, but the price has languished in the $250 area.

Now, for the first time, you start hearing numbers in the $400s, and buyers are beginning to believe we will see $300s. I expect the current momentum will carry the stock to the mid $300s.

What AAPL needs is for one of the big Wall Street names to come out with a price target of $750.

Apple has the potential to be the first publicly traded company that could reach a trillion dollar market cap.
