Apple's operating expenses remained stable, and both revenue and net profit for the quarter achieved nearly 10% growth. Specifically: ① In the hardware business, growth this quarter was driven by pre-purchase demand due to tariff impacts and subsidies in China, with both the iPhone and Mac businesses achieving double-digit year-on-year growth; ② In the services business, despite the challenge posed by the allowance of external links in the App Store in the U.S., the services business still achieved double-digit growth this quarter, indicating that the event had a minimal short-term impact on the company's performance; ③ In terms of gross margin, the company's overall gross margin improved year-on-year this quarter. However, from a product structural perspective, the services business gross margin remained high at 75.6%, while the hardware product gross margin significantly declined to 34.5%, with tariff impacts accounting for approximately $800 million. Overall, although Apple delivered a solid performance this quarter, further demonstrating the company's strong moat, the market is more eagerly anticipating the company's progress in product innovation and AI business. If the company fails to bring new breakthroughs to the market, its valuation can only fluctuate within historical ranges.
