“This quarter’s record results are a testament to Apple’s relentless focus on innovation and our ability to create the best products and services in the world,” said CEO Tim Cook in a press release. “We are delighted to see the strong customer response to our new products, as well as the progress we’re making to become carbon neutral across our supply chain and our products by 2030. We are committed, as ever, to being a force for good in the world—both in what we create and what we leave behind.”
Apple declined to offer guidance for the current third quarter of 2022 that ends in June, with supply constraints expected to affect production and sales.
