Apple announced on July 21 the financial results for the third quarter of its fiscal year 2008 (April, May and June 2008) ended June 28, 2008. The company has achieved quarterly sales of 7464 million dollars (4,701 million euros) and has earned a quarterly net profit of 1,070 million dollars (674 million euros), equivalent to 1.19 U.S. dollars per share. These results are compared with sales of 5410 million dollars (3,407 million euros) and net profit of 818 million dollars (515 million euros) or 0.92 U.S. dollars per share, from the same quarter last year. The company's gross margin has been 34.8 percent, down from 36.9 percent the previous fiscal year. 42 percent of the quarterly sales Apple has made outside the U.S., the highest percentage ever has won the company and that, thanks to the iPhone 3G, will increase further.
Not a bad result given the current economic situation, and that Apple is in the last 5 years has become a company that does not have that excuse, saying that the design environments and artistic professionals are the most important thing.
