Background & analysis
According to The Verge, Apple has released its latest earnings results, posting its best fiscal year ever in terms of revenue and earnings per share. Throughout the fiscal year, iPhone and Mac sales continued to grow strongly, and iPhone revenue in the fourth quarter climbed 17.5% year over year. The report notes that Apple has kept cashing in on the AI boom, yet without following its competitors into heavy infrastructure spending, so the AI-driven gains have not come alongside large-scale capital outlays on infrastructure. As of now, Apple has not offered further details on how it plans to deploy capital for AI going forward.
