我們償還了 26 億美元的到期債務，並增加了 70 億美元的商業票據，使我們的債務總額達到 1,070 億美元。

As a result, net cash was $50 billion at the end of the quarter.

結果，本季末淨現金為 500 億美元。

During the quarter, we returned over $29 billion to shareholders, including $3.8 billion in dividends and equivalents and $25 billion through open market repurchases of 112 million Apple shares.

本季度，我們向股東返還了超過 290 億美元，其中包括 38 億美元的股息和等價物，以及透過公開市場回購 1.12 億股蘋果股票獲得的 250 億美元。

As we move ahead into the December quarter, I'd like to review our outlook which includes the types of forward-looking information that Suhasini referred to at the beginning of the call.

隨著我們進入 12 月季度，我想回顧一下我們的前景，其中包括蘇哈西尼在電話會議開始時提到的前瞻性資訊類型。

The color we're providing today assumes that the macroeconomic outlook doesn't worsen from what we are projecting today for the current quarter.

我們今天提供的顏色假設宏觀經濟前景不會比我們今天對本季的預測惡化。

We expect our December quarter total company revenue to grow low- to mid-single digits year over year.

我們預計 12 月季度的公司總收入將年增至中個位數。

We expect services revenue to grow double digits at a rate similar to what we reported in the fiscal year 2024.

我們預計服務收入將以兩位數的速度成長，與我們在 2024 財年報告的速度類似。

We expect gross margin to be between 46% and 47%.

我們預計毛利率在46%至47%之間。

We expect OpEx to be between $15.3 billion and $15.5 billion.

我們預計營運支出將在 153 億美元至 155 億美元之間。

我們預計 OI&E 約為負 2.5 億美元，不包括少數股權投資按市值計算的任何潛在影響，我們的稅率約為 16%。

Finally, today, our Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.25 per share of common stock payable on November 14, 2024, to shareholders of record as of November 11, 2024.

最後，今天，我們的董事會宣佈於 2024 年 11 月 14 日向截至 2024 年 11 月 11 日登記在冊的股東派發每股普通股 0.25 美元的現金股利。

With that, let us open the call to questions.

接下來，讓我們開始提問。

Thank you, Luca.

謝謝你，盧卡。

(Event Instructions) Operator, may we have the first question, please?

（活動說明）接線員，請問第一個問題可以嗎？

Michael Ng, Goldman Sachs.

邁克爾吳，高盛。

Hey, good afternoon.

嘿，下午好。

I just have two.

我只有兩個。

The first one is for Tim on Apple Intelligence.

第一個是關於 Apple Intelligence 的 Tim 的。

I was wondering if you could just expand a little bit on some of the early feedback to Apple Intelligence, you know, both for iOS 18.1 but also the developer beta so far and whether you would attribute Apple Intelligence to any of the strong iPhone performance that we've seen to date.

我想知道您是否可以稍微擴展一下 Apple Intelligence 的一些早期反饋，包括 iOS 18.1 以及迄今為止的開發者測試版，以及您是否會將 Apple Intelligence 歸因於 iPhone 的強勁性能迄今為止我們已經看到了。

Thanks.

謝謝。

Thanks, Michael.

謝謝，麥可。

As I noted in my comments, just this week on Monday, we made the first set of Apple Intelligence features available in US English for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

正如我在評論中指出的那樣，就在本週一，我們為 iPhone、iPad 和 Mac 提供了第一套美式英語 Apple Intelligence 功能。

And this includes things like systemwide writing tools that help you refine your writing, a more natural and conversational Siri, more intelligent Photos app, including the ability to create movies simply by typing a description which is really cool, and new ways to prioritize and stay in the moment with notification summaries and priority messages.

這包括諸如可幫助您完善寫作的系統範圍寫作工具、更自然、更具對話性的Siri、更智能的照片應用程式（包括只需輸入非常酷的描述即可創建電影的功能）以及確定優先級和保留的新方法即時通知摘要和優先訊息。

There's also email summaries and email priority.

還有電子郵件摘要和電子郵件優先順序。

We're getting a lot of positive feedback from developers and customers.

我們從開發人員和客戶那裡得到了很多正面的回饋。

And in fact, if you just look at the first three days, which is all we have obviously from Monday.

事實上，如果你只看前三天，這顯然是我們從週一開始的全部情況。

The 18.1 adoption is twice as fast as the 17.1 adoption was in the year ago quarter.

18.1 的採用速度是去年同期 17.1 的採用速度的兩倍。

And so there's definitely interest out there for Apple Intelligence.

因此，人們肯定對 Apple Intelligence 感興趣。

Carrying on in the quarter, we are looking forward to bringing even more features in December and this will include even more powerful writing tools and visual intelligence experience that builds on Apple Intelligence and ChatGPT integration in addition to other features as well as we'll bring localized English to several countries that include the UK, Australia, and Canada.

繼續本季度，我們期待在 12 月推出更多功能，其中包括更強大的書寫工具和基於 Apple Intelligence 和 ChatGPT 集成的視覺智能體驗以及其他功能，我們還將帶來將英語本地化到多個國家，包括英國、澳洲和加拿大。

So it's going to be quite a software quarter between the release on Monday and the release in December.

因此，從週一發佈到 12 月發布，這將是一個相當重要的軟體季度。

And then as we turn the corner to '25, we'll have more languages rolling out and starting in April as well and more features as well.

然後，當我們進入 25 年時，我們將從 4 月開始推出更多語言和更多功能。

And so it's a very, very strong drumbeat.

所以這是非常非常強烈的鼓聲。

And we couldn't be more excited about it.

我們對此感到非常興奮。

Great.

偉大的。

Thank you very much.

非常感謝。

And my second one just for Luca.

我的第二個是給盧卡的。

First, congratulations again, Luca, on the new role and it's been a real privilege being able to spend some time with you.

首先，再次恭喜盧卡就任新角色，能夠與您共度時光真是我的榮幸。

A question that I think will overlap with your new role as well.

我認為這個問題也將與您的新角色重疊。

Could you just talk a little bit about the CapEx outlook and whether investments and things like Private Cloud Compute could change the historical CapEx range of roughly $10 billion a year.

您能否簡單談談資本支出前景，以及投資和私有雲運算之類的事情是否會改變每年約 100 億美元的歷史資本支出範圍。

Thank you very much.

非常感謝。

Thank you, Michael.

謝謝你，麥可。

On the CapEx front, I've mentioned before, a number of times, we have a bit of a hybrid model in the way we run our data centers.

在資本支出方面，我之前多次提到過，我們運行資料中心的方式有一些混合模型。

In some case, we use our own data center.

在某些情況下，我們使用自己的資料中心。

In some cases we use third-party providers.

在某些情況下，我們使用第三方提供者。

So our CapEx numbers may not be fully comparable with others, but obviously, we are rolling out these features, Apple Intelligence features already now.

因此，我們的資本支出數字可能無法與其他公司完全比較，但顯然，我們現在已經推出了這些功能，Apple Intelligence 功能。

And so we are making all the capacity that is needed available for these features.

因此，我們正在為這些功能提供所需的所有容量。

You will see in our 10-K the amount of CapEx that we've incurred during the course of fiscal '24.

您將在我們的 10-K 中看到我們在 24 財年期間發生的資本支出金額。

And we will -- in fiscal '25, we will continue to make all the investments that are necessary.

我們將在 25 財年繼續進行所有必要的投資。

And of course, the investments in AI-related CapEx will be made.

當然，也會對人工智慧相關的資本支出進行投資。

All right.

好的。

Thanks, Mike.

謝謝，麥克。

Can we have the next question please?

我們可以問下一個問題嗎？

Erik Woodring, Morgan Stanley.

艾瑞克‧伍德林，摩根士丹利。

Great.

偉大的。

Thanks so much for taking my questions.

非常感謝您回答我的問題。

I have two as well.

我也有兩個。

But Tim, maybe if we start with you, I think each of the last four years, you've exited the December quarter with iPhone demand outpacing supply.

但是蒂姆，也許如果我們從你開始，我認為過去四年中，每年 12 月季度結束時，iPhone 的需求都超過了供應。

As we look to this quarter in the iPhone 16 cycle, lead times are relatively short.

從 iPhone 16 週期的本季來看，交貨時間相對較短。

There are no known supply shortages.

不存在已知的供應短缺情況。

And I'm just curious whether you've been able to maybe get a better read on early cycle iPhone demand this year relative to past years.

我只是好奇你是否能夠更好地了解今年相對於過去幾年的早期 iPhone 需求。

And if so, what you've learned about upgrade rates, switching rates, trade ups versus trading down and being more price sensitive, and overall, any impact that Apple Intelligence may have on iPhone 16 sales?

如果是這樣，您對升級率、轉換率、升級換代與降級換代以及對價格更加敏感等方面了解了什麼，以及總體而言，Apple Intelligence 可能對 iPhone 16 銷售產生的影響？

And then I have a follow up.

然後我有一個後續行動。

Thank you.

謝謝。

There's a lot there.

那裡有很多東西。

On Apple Intelligence, we believe it's a compelling upgrade reason.

在 Apple Intelligence 上，我們認為這是一個令人信服的升級原因。

But we just launched it three days ago.

但我們三天前才推出它。

And so what we've got now from a data point of view is the number I just referenced that 18.1 has twice the adoption rate of 17.1. So that clearly shows a level of interest out there.

因此，從數據的角度來看，我們現在得到的是我剛才提到的數字，即 18.1 的採用率是 17.1 的兩倍。這清楚地表明了人們的興趣程度。

In terms of exiting the December quarter with demand greater than supply, that's not my recollection that that happened for all four years.

就12月季度的需求大於供應而言，我的記憶中四年來都沒有發生過這種情況。

We clearly had cases during COVID where there were disruptions and some spilled over.

顯然，在新冠肺炎疫情期間，我們遇到一些情況，其中出現了中斷，有些還出現了溢出效應。

But in a more regular environment, where we're not having something -- 100-year flood kind of thing, we would -- our desire is to get into balance as quickly as possible.

但在一個更正常的環境中，我們不會發生 100 年一遇的洪水之類的事情，我們的願望是盡快達到平衡。

We don't want customers having to wait for products.

我們不希望顧客必須等待產品。

And so if you look at how we've done this year, we did that very quickly on the 16, on the 16 Pro family, the Pro and the Pro Max.

因此，如果你看看我們今年的表現，你會發現我們在 16、16 Pro 系列、Pro 和 Pro Max 上很快就做到了這一點。

We've been constrained in October, but we believe that soon we'll be out of constraint.

我們在十月受到了限制，但我們相信很快我們就會擺脫限制。

And so that's a good sign from our point of view.

從我們的角度來看，這是一個好兆頭。

Keep in mind that's a function of supply and demand, not one side or the other.

請記住，這是供給和需求的函數，而不是一方或另一方。

And we've been preparing for the quarter for a while.

我們已經為本季做準備了一段時間。

So that's what I would say there.

這就是我要說的。

Okay.

好的。

That's really helpful.

這真的很有幫助。

Thank you, Tim.

謝謝你，提姆。

And then Luca, if I just turn to you, obviously, it's been a pleasure working with you and we wish you all the best in the next role.

然後盧卡，如果我轉向你，顯然，與你合作很愉快，我們祝你在下一個角色中一切順利。

There's plenty debate in the market right now about input costs and commodity prices and the impact that will have on gross margins.

目前市場上關於投入成本和大宗商品價格及其對毛利率的影響存在著許多爭論。

Historically, you do guide gross margins up 50 basis points sequentially, which what you just told us about for the December quarter.

從歷史上看，您確實將毛利率連續提高了 50 個基點，這就是您剛剛告訴我們的 12 月季度的情況。

So can you maybe just help us understand your view of component prices and broadly whether you still see those as tailwinds to gross margins and how sustainable that tailwind might be or whether that should become a headwind as we look forward?

那麼，您能否幫助我們了解您對零件價格的看法，以及您是否仍然認為這些是毛利率的順風車，以及這種順風車的可持續性如何，或者在我們未來的展望中這是否應該成為逆風？

Thanks so much.

非常感謝。

Yes, Erik.

是的，埃里克。

As you know, our gross margins are a factor of many, many variables.

如您所知，我們的毛利率是許多變數的因素。

Commodities, of course, are important.

大宗商品當然很重要。

They're not the only factor.

它們不是唯一的因素。

But specifically on commodities, I can tell you that both for the September quarter and what we expect for the December quarter, most commodities are going to move down in price while NAND and DRAM increased during the course of the September quarter and we expect them to increase during the December quarter.

但具體到商品方面，我可以告訴您，無論是9 月份季度還是我們對12 月份季度的預期，大多數商品的價格都會下跌，而NAND 和DRAM 在9 月份季度期間會上漲，我們預計它們的價格將會下跌。

We are very pleased with the level of gross margins that we've reported during the course of the year.

我們對今年報告的毛利率水準非常滿意。

The entire fiscal year of '24, they're really, for our company, a record levels of gross margin, and obviously, guiding to 46% to 47% for the December quarter with all the new technologies that we've included in the products with all the new features that Tim has talked about, a lot of new products across the board.

24 世紀整個財年，對於我們公司來說，毛利率確實創下了歷史新高，顯然，我們在 12 月份的季度中採用了所有新技術，毛利率達到了 46% 到 47%。的所有新功能的產品，全面的許多新產品。

I think it's a very good sign.

我認為這是一個非常好的跡象。

Thank you, Erik.

謝謝你，埃里克。

Thank you very much.

非常感謝。

Can we have the next question, please.

我們可以提出下一個問題嗎？

Ben Reitzes, Melius.

本‧雷茨，梅利厄斯。

Hey.

嘿。

Thanks a lot.

多謝。

And I'll echo those comments about Luca.

我會回應那些關於盧卡的評論。

Miss you and good luck.

想念你，祝你好運。

And my question is with regard to iPhone again.

我的問題又是關於 iPhone 的。

And with regard to the fourth quarter is my first question -- or sorry, the fourth calendar quarter, your first quarter.

關於第四季是我的第一個問題——或者抱歉，第四季度，你的第一季。

When you look at mid- to low-single digit revenue growth, do you expect the iPhone to grow faster?

當您看到中低個位數的收入成長時，您是否預期 iPhone 的成長速度會更快？

And what are you thinking about in the answer to that question with regard to China, which keeps improving each quarter?

對於每個季度都在不斷進步的中國，您在回答這個問題時有何想法？

Thanks very much.

非常感謝。

And then I have just a follow-up.

然後我有一個後續行動。

Thanks.

謝謝。

You know, Ben, we are not providing that level of color today.

你知道，本，我們今天不提供那種等級的顏色。

Yes, we've said that we expect total company revenue to grow low- to mid-single digits.

是的，我們已經說過，我們預計公司總收入將達到低至中個位數的成長。

Keep in mind, Apple Intelligence, as Tim said, is rolling out over time, both features and languages.

請記住，正如Tim所說，Apple Intelligence 正在隨著時間的推移推出功能和語言。

And we just had a number of exciting launches just this week, from the Apple Intelligence feature to the new Mac.

本週我們剛發布了一系列令人興奮的產品，從 Apple Intelligence 功能到新款 Mac。

So we leave it at that.

所以我們就這樣吧。

We've given you the total for the company and some pretty good direction on services, which we expect to continue to grow at a similar rate than what we've seen in fiscal '24.

我們已經向您提供了公司的整體情況以及一些非常好的服務方向，我們預計服務將繼續以與 24 財年相似的速度成長。

Well, great.

嗯，太好了。

Thanks, Luca.

謝謝，盧卡。

Hey, Tim.

嘿，提姆。

I wanted to ask you, I mean -- and you know, you guys are well aware, a lot of the noise out there.

我想問你們，我的意思是──你們知道，你們很清楚，外面有很多噪音。

People chattering about builds, lead times, and you guys are guiding for mid- to low-single digit growth.

人們談論建置、交付週期，而你們正在指導中低個位數的成長。

That certainly doesn't sound like alarm bells here vis a vis what you guys must be hearing.

這聽起來當然不像是你們一定要聽到的警鐘。

And I know you guys are just running your business and doing the best you can.

我知道你們只是在經營自己的生意並盡力而為。

But you have a lot of perspective now, Tim.

但你現在有很多觀點了，提姆。

What are people missing here?

人們在這裡缺少什麼？

And it certainly just sounds like, you guys are typically conservative.

聽起來確實是，你們都是典型的保守派。

That guide for revenue is certainly -- sounds like this guy is certainly not falling and you have a pretty good product cycle.

收入指南肯定是——聽起來這個傢伙肯定不會倒下，而且你有一個相當好的產品週期。

So what do you think people are missing and what are you excited about?

那麼您認為人們缺少什麼以及您對什麼感到興奮？

Thanks so much, Tim.

非常感謝，提姆。

Ben, I could not be more excited about Apple Intelligence and the rollout that we've got in front of us.

Ben，我對 Apple Intelligence 以及我們即將推出的產品感到非常興奮。

I'm obviously on future releases as well, working on it, and it's changing my daily life.

顯然我也在關注未來的版本，致力於它，它正在改變我的日常生活。

I'm super excited about the health features that we're rolling out.

我對我們即將推出的健康功能感到非常興奮。

The number of emails I'm already getting from customers that have taken a hearing test and are using their AirPods Pro 2 as a hearing aid are just -- are staggering and heartwarming to read.

我已經從接受過聽力測試並使用 AirPods Pro 2 作為助聽器的客戶那裡收到的電子郵件數量驚人，讀起來令人心曠神怡。

I'm also thrilled about sleep apnea and the notification there that we'll have through the watch.

我也對睡眠呼吸中止症以及我們將透過手錶收到的通知感到興奮。

This week is a very exciting week for us because we just rolled out three days, three launches of different Macs and desktops and laptops.

本週對我們來說是非常令人興奮的一周，因為我們剛剛推出了三天、三款不同的 Mac、桌上型電腦和筆記型電腦。

And so we have a lot of things on the docket.

所以我們還有很多事情要處理。

And it's definitely the strongest lineup we've ever had going into the holiday season.

這絕對是我們進入假期以來最強大的陣容。

In terms of the noise, I tune it out.

就噪音而言，我將其排除。

Because if not, it would just be deafening.

因為如果沒有的話，那隻會是震耳欲聾的。

And so that what I do.

這就是我所做的。

I can't speak for everybody else, but that's what I do.

我不能代表其他人說話，但這就是我所做的。

Thank you, Ben.

謝謝你，本。

Can we have the next question please?

我們可以問下一個問題嗎？

Amit Daryanani, Evercore.

阿米特·達裡亞納尼（Amit Daryanani），Evercore。

Good afternoon.

午安.

Thanks for taking my questions.

感謝您回答我的問題。

Luca, best of luck in the future.

盧卡，祝你未來一切順利。

It's been a pleasure working with you.

很高興與您合作。

I guess the first one I have is away from iPhones on the services side.

我想我擁有的第一個手機是在服務方面遠離 iPhone 的。

You're at $100 billion run rate with services today, which is a phenomenal achievement by itself.

如今，您的服務運行率已達到 1000 億美元，這本身就是一項了不起的成就。

As you look at the services portfolio today, can you just talk about how much of this business do you think is reoccurring versus transactional?

當您查看今天的服務組合時，您能否談談您認為該業務中有多少是重複發生的，而不是交易性的？

And are the growth rates different between the subscription portfolio over here versus transactional portfolio?

這裡的訂閱投資組合與交易投資組合之間的成長率是否不同？

Yes, Amit, I'll take this one.

是的，阿米特，我要這個。

Yes, we are, first of all, very, very happy with it.

是的，首先，我們對此非常非常滿意。

It's an important milestone.

這是一個重要的里程碑。

Of course, we've got to a run rate of $100 billion.

當然，我們的運轉率必須達到 1000 億美元。

You look back just a few years ago and the growth has been phenomenal.

回顧幾年前，你會發現成長是驚人的。

We're very pleased we got a very diversified portfolio of services.

我們非常高興能夠獲得非常多元化的服務組合。

And over the years, the amount that is recurring in nature has grown and is growing faster than the transactional piece.

多年來，自然界中經常出現的金額不斷增長，並且增長速度超過了交易部分。

We have well over 1 billion paid subscriptions on our platform right now between our own services and third-party services.

目前，我們的平台上我們自己的服務和第三方服務的付費訂閱量遠遠超過 10 億。

That continues to grow strong double digits.

這一數字持續強勁成長兩位數。

So we feel very, very good.

所以我們感覺非常非常好。

And essentially, to your question, yes, the recurring portion is growing faster than the transactional one.

從本質上講，對於你的問題，是的，經常性部分的成長速度快於交易部分。

Got it.

知道了。

And if I could just follow up, if I look at the growth rates across the different geography, there's always concern around China when it comes to iPhone demand, I feel.

如果我能跟進一下，如果我看看不同地區的成長率，我覺得，在 iPhone 需求方面，中國各地總是存在擔憂。

But the performance in September looks fairly good.

但9月的表現看起來還不錯。

So why don't we just touch on what are you seeing from a demand perspective in China?

那我們為什麼不從中國的需求角度談談您所看到的情況呢？

If the recent stimulus plans in China could essentially be a catalyst for iPhones?

中國最近的刺激方案能否本質上成為 iPhone 的催化劑？

And then EMEA really stood out with double digit growth, maybe you can just splash that out as well for us.

然後歐洲、中東和非洲地區確實以兩位數的成長脫穎而出，也許您也可以為我們提供這一點。

Thank you.

謝謝。

Yeah, I'll take the China question.

是的，我將回答中國問題。

If you look at how we did for the quarter, we were relatively flat year over year and a key component of that improvement relative to the year-over-year performance that we have been achieving is that there was a sequential improvement in foreign exchange.

如果你看看我們本季的表現，你會發現我們的業績年比相對持平，而相對於我們所取得的同比業績而言，這項改善的關鍵組成部分是外匯交易的連續改善。

And so that helped us out.

這幫助了我們。

As you know, it's been a headwind that we've been reporting for a period of time.

如您所知，一段時間以來我們一直在報道這一逆風。

But the other parts that are -- what else is going on there is that our installed base of active devices reached an all-time high.

但其他部分——還有什麼是我們的活躍設備安裝基數達到了歷史最高水準。

We had the top two selling smartphones in urban China according to Kantar.

根據 Kantar 的數據，我們擁有中國城市中銷量最高的兩款智慧型手機。

The level of new customers that we have buying the products like Mac and iPad are well over 50% -- watch is over three quarters that are new to the product.

我們購買 Mac 和 iPad 等產品的新客戶比例遠超過 50%，而手錶則超過四分之三是該產品的新客戶。

And so there's several positive signs there.

因此，有一些積極的跡象。

In terms of the stimulus, it's a clear focus of the team there, but I'm not an economist and don't want to live on the effect of it.

就刺激措施而言，這是該團隊的明確關注重點，但我不是經濟學家，也不想靠其影響力而活。

On the Europe side, I mean, a number of things.

在歐洲方面，我的意思是，有很多事情。

As you see from our results during the quarter, Europe grew double digits, 11%.

正如您從我們本季的業績中看到的，歐洲成長了兩位數，即 11%。

And really, it was really good growth across the board, the different segment segments, they all did well.

事實上，整個產業的成長都非常好，不同的細分市場，他們都做得很好。

Keep in mind, our definition of Europe in our segment reporting includes a number of emerging markets like Turkey, where we've grown very strongly; the Middle East -- Tim mentioned a number of records in Saudi, in UAE; and we also include India, where we set an all-time revenue record during the September quarter.

請記住，我們在分部報告中對歐洲的定義包括許多新興市場，例如土耳其，我們在這些市場的成長非常強勁；中東——提姆提到了沙烏地阿拉伯、阿聯酋的一些記錄；我們還包括印度，我們在九月季度創下了歷史收入記錄。

But I have to say also Western Europe grew nicely.

但我不得不說西歐也發展得很好。

So we've seen very, very good results for us in the entire segment.

因此，我們在整個細分市場中看到了非常非常好的結果。

Thanks, Amit.

謝謝，阿米特。

Can we have the next question please?

我們可以問下一個問題嗎？

David Vogt, UBS.

大衛‧沃格特，瑞銀集團。

Great.

偉大的。

Thanks everyone for taking my questions and congratulations, Luca.

感謝大家提出我的問題並祝賀盧卡。

I know Luca, and I know, Tim, you don't want to give a lot of granularity, but if I just try to pull together your comments about what the demand environment looks like.

我了解盧卡，蒂姆，我知道您不想提供太多細節，但如果我只是嘗試將您對需求環境的評論匯總起來。

Are we to assume, based on sort of the commentary, that there is a risk that maybe the product revenue portfolio could be down in the December quarter, if I take your numbers at face value?

根據某種評論，我們是否可以假設，如果我從表面上看你的數字，那麼產品收入組合可能會在 12 月季度下降？

And if that's the risk, is that more iPhone-related, Mac related given the strength that you've seen in iPad related?

如果這就是風險，考慮到你在 iPad 上看到的優勢，這是否更多地與 iPhone 相關、與 Mac 相關？

Just trying to get a handle on kind of what potentially give you that degree of, I don't want to say caution, but may be balanced for you going into the December quarter?

只是想弄清楚什麼可能會給你帶來這種程度的影響，我不想說謹慎，但對於進入 12 月季度的你來說可能是平衡的？

And then I have a follow-up.

然後我有一個後續行動。

As I said, David, we're not providing that level of color.

正如我所說，大衛，我們不提供那種等級的顏色。

We've given you some data on services.

我們為您提供了一些有關服務的數據。

I would repeat what I said earlier, we're very early in the cycle, very early in the cycle with a lot of new products and features that we are launching.

我想重複我之前所說的，我們正處於週期的早期階段，我們正在推出許多新產品和功能。

And we're very excited about them, but it's early.

我們對它們感到非常興奮，但現在還為時過早。

And the Apple Intelligence rollout is going to happen over time, not across the world, as normally we do with software releases.

Apple Intelligence 的推出將隨著時間的推移而進行，而不是像我們通常在軟體發佈時那樣在全球範圍內進行。

Right.

正確的。

Okay.

好的。

So maybe a follow-up for Tim.

所以也許是提姆的後續行動。

When you think about to Luca's point about the rollout being staged over the next several quarters across the world.

當你想到盧卡關於未來幾季在全球推出的觀點時。

Do you think that has any impact on sort of the normal historical demand cadence across different region so should we see something different, let's say, in the December quarter, the March quarter or the June quarter, et cetera, relative to history, given the timing of the rollout and where customers are probably waiting for the devices to be enable to have the operating system?

您認為這對不同地區的正常歷史需求節奏有什麼影響嗎？到推出的時間以及客戶可能在哪裡等待設備啟用作業系統？

Would just love to kind of get your perspective on how we think about the demand cadence, how it might be different than maybe historically.

只是想了解您對我們如何看待需求節奏的看法，以及它與歷史上可能有何不同。

Yeah, David, it's clearly, as you point out, a different cadence, if you will, than we would normally do.

是的，大衛，正如你所指出的，如果你願意的話，這顯然與我們通常的節奏不同。

And we -- as we talked about at WWDC, we wanted to give a comprehensive vision of Apple Intelligence.

正如我們在 WWDC 上談到的，我們希望給出 Apple Intelligence 的全面願景。

And we said then that it would roll out over time.

我們當時說它會隨著時間的推移而推出。

And we're right on the, what we said, WWDC.

我們在 WWDC 上所說的都是正確的。

And so we're executing well.

所以我們執行得很好。

9In terms of the demand curve.

9從需求曲線來看。

I would just say that what we believe here is that it's a compelling reason for upgrading.

我只想說，我們相信這是升級的一個令人信服的理由。

And it's -- that's both my personal experience and feedback that I'm getting.

這既是我的個人經歷，也是我得到的回饋。

And so we'll see.

我們拭目以待。

We're not projecting beyond the current quarter, obviously.

顯然，我們的預測不會超出目前季度。

We just don't do that.

我們只是不這樣做。

Thank you, David.

謝謝你，大衛。

We'll take the next question, please.

我們將回答下一個問題。

Wamsi Mohan, Bank of America.

萬西·莫漢，美國銀行。

Yeah.

是的。

Thank you so much.

太感謝了。

Luca, we will miss you on these calls.

盧卡，我們會在這些電話中想念你。

Tim, maybe for you, as you think about this staggered rollout of Apple Intelligence, can you help us think through potentially how much of the global installed base of phones will have access to Apple Intelligence in their native language in their region within the next year or maybe in the next two years?

提姆，也許對您來說，當您考慮 Apple Intelligence 的分階段推出時，您能否幫助我們思考一下，明年全球有多少手機用戶將能夠在其所在地區以母語訪問 Apple Intelligence或也許在未來兩年內？

And what are some of the gating factors in the rollout?

推出過程中有哪些限制因素？

And I have a follow-up.

我有一個後續行動。

If you look at our schedule, we started in the -- with US English.

如果你看一下我們的日程安排，我們從——美國英語開始。

That started on Monday.

那是從週一開始的。

There's another release coming that adds additional features that I had referenced in December in not only US English, but also localized for UK, Australia, Canada, Ireland, and New Zealand.

還有另一個版本即將發布，它添加了我在 12 月提到的附加功能，不僅有美國英語版本，而且還針對英國、澳大利亞、加拿大、愛爾蘭和紐西蘭進行了本地化。

And then we will add more languages in April.

然後我們將在四月添加更多語言。

We haven't set the specifics yet in terms of the languages, but we'll add more in April and then more as we step through the year.

我們還沒有確定語言方面的具體細節，但我們將在四月添加更多內容，然後在今年內添加更多內容。

And so we're moving just as fast as possible while ensuring quality.

因此，我們在確保品質的同時盡可能快地行動。

That's what we're doing.

這就是我們正在做的事情。

Okay.

好的。

Yes.

是的。

And then as a follow-up, maybe this is a little premature, but how is Apple at a high level, prepared to potentially deal with any tariffs that might come post the selection cycle?

作為後續行動，也許這有點為時過早，但蘋果高層準備如何應對選擇週期後可能出現的任何關稅？

And if not exactly, how perhaps you can just help investors think about some of the things Apple has done already to try to insulate from some of these potential impacts?

如果不完全正確，你如何幫助投資人思考蘋果已經採取的一些措施來試圖避免這些潛在影響？

You know, I wouldn't want to speculate about those sorts of things.

你知道，我不想猜測這類事情。

And so I'm going to punt on that one.

所以我要押注這一點。

Thank you, Wamsi.

謝謝你，瓦姆西。

May we have the next question, please?

我們可以提出下一個問題嗎？

Krish Sankar, TD Cowen.

克里斯·桑卡爾，TD·考恩。

Yeah.

是的。

Hi.

你好。

Thanks for taking my question.

感謝您提出我的問題。

And again, thanks, Luca, for all your help with analysts and investors.

再次感謝盧卡，感謝您為分析師和投資者提供的所有幫助。

My first question is on R&D, given how much your tech peers are spending on AI.

我的第一個問題是關於研發，考慮到科技同業在人工智慧上的支出。

Does this new area of Apple intelligence actually require Apple to invest more in R&D beyond your current 7% to 8% of sales to capture this opportunity?

Apple 智慧的這個新領域實際上是否需要 Apple 在研發方面投入更多，超越目前銷售額的 7% 至 8%，才能把握這個機會？

And then I had a follow-up.

然後我進行了跟進。

Krish, as you know, we've been investing heavily in R&D over the last several years.

Krish，如您所知，過去幾年我們一直在研發方面投入大量資金。

Our R&D growth has been significant during the last several years.

過去幾年我們的研發成長顯著。

And obviously, as we move through the course of fiscal '24, we've also reallocated some of the existing resources to this new technology to AI.

顯然，隨著我們進入 24 財年，我們也將一些現有資源重新分配給這項新技術到人工智慧。

And so the level of intensity that we're putting into AI has increased a lot, and you maybe don't see the full extent of it because we've also had some internal reallocation of the base of engineering resources that we have within the company.

因此，我們投入人工智慧的強度水平大大增加，你可能看不到它的全部範圍，因為我們也對我們在人工智慧領域擁有的工程資源基礎進行了一些內部重新分配。

Got it.

知道了。

And then another quick follow-up.

然後是另一個快速跟進。

I understand Apple Intelligence is a feature on the phone today.

據我了解，Apple Intelligence 是當今手機上的功能。

But do you think that in the future it could potentially have or benefit the services growth business?

但您認為未來它可能會帶來或有利於服務成長業務嗎？

Or is that -- are they too bifurcated to even make a call on -- this early in the

或者是——他們是否太分歧以至於無法打電話——這麼早

[supply chain]?

[供應鏈]？

Thank you.

謝謝。

I think just to keep it in mind, Apple Intelligence is also available on the Mac for the M-Series products and on certain models of iPad and in addition to the phone.

我想請記住，除了手機之外，Apple Intelligence 還可以在 Mac 上的 M 系列產品和某些型號的 iPad 上使用。

And so it's on all three.

這三個方面都是如此。

What was your follow-on question?

您的後續問題是什麼？

Tim, can the Apple Intelligence actually help and have the services growth rate?

Tim，Apple Intelligence 真的能提供協助並實現服務成長率嗎？

Keep in mind that we have released a lot of APIs and developers will be taking advantage of those APIs.

請記住，我們已經發布了許多 API，開發人員將利用這些 API。

That release has occurred as well and of course, more are coming.

該版本也已發布，當然還會有更多版本發布。

And so I definitely believe that a lot of developers will be taking advantage of Apple Intelligence in a big way.

因此，我絕對相信許多開發人員將大力利用 Apple Intelligence。

And what that does to services, I'll not forecast.

我不會預測這對服務有何影響。

But I would say that from an ecosystem point of view, I think it will be great for the user and the user experience.

但我想說，從生態系統的角度來看，我認為這對使用者和使用者體驗都是很好的。

All right.

好的。

Thank you, Krish.

謝謝你，克里什。

Can we have the next question, please?

我們可以問下一個問題嗎？

Samik Chatterjee, JP Morgan.

薩米克‧查特吉，摩根大通。

Thanks for taking my questions.

感謝您回答我的問題。

And Luca, congrats on the new role and a pleasure working with you these years.

盧卡，祝賀你擔任新職務，並且很高興這些年來與你合作。

I guess if I can for my first one, start with mix on the iPhone side.

我想如果我可以的話，我的第一個作品可以從 iPhone 端的混音開始。

But I'm really curious about if you have any thoughts, given that Apple Intelligence is now going to be a consistent feature set across all the four sort of iPhones on the iPhone 16 series that you launched?

但我真的很好奇，考慮到 Apple Intelligence 現在將成為你們推出的 iPhone 16 系列所有四款 iPhone 上的一致功能集，你們有什麼想法嗎？

And going back to iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max.

回到 iPhone 15 Pro 和 Pro Max。

Are you seeing any change in behavior from a consumer perspective in terms of which sort of on the mix front within the iPhone series where consumer adoption is given that there's more consistency of the features when it comes to Apple Intelligence across the board?

從消費者的角度來看，您是否認為 iPhone 系列的混合方面的行為發生了任何變化，在消費者採用方面，Apple Intelligence 的功能更加一致？

And I have a follow-up.

我有一個後續行動。

It's tough to answer your question because we've been constrained in October on the Pro and the Pro Max.

很難回答你的問題，因為我們在 10 月的 Pro 和 Pro Max 上受到了限制。

And so it's really too early in the curve to call the precise mix on the consumer versus the Pro.

因此，現在判斷消費者與專業版的精確組合還為時過早。

So we'll see.

所以我們拭目以待。

Yes.

是的。

And for my follow-up, Tim, during the quarter, I think, over the last 90 days, we had the quotes come out in relation to the DOJ relative to the Google sort of revenue sharing agreement that you have with them.

對於我的後續行動，蒂姆，在本季度，我認為在過去 90 天裡，我們收到了與司法部相關的報價，以及您與他們簽訂的谷歌收入分享協議。

How do you sort of look at it going forward in terms of emphasizing the role that Apple has in that ecosystem with Safari and sort of the potential outcome that you're looking at?

在強調蘋果在 Safari 生態系統中所扮演的角色以及您所關注的潛在結果方面，您如何看待未來的發展？

Thank you.

謝謝。

I don't want to speculate on that from a legal point of view.

我不想從法律角度對此進行推測。

It's an ongoing case.

這是一個正在進行的案件。

And I will save that for another day

我會留到另一天再說

All right.

好的。

Thank you, Samik.

謝謝你，薩米克。

Operator, may we have the next question, please?

接線員，請問我們有下一個問題嗎？

Richard Kramer, Arete Research.

理查德·克萊默，Arete 研究中心。

Thanks very much.

非常感謝。

For my first one, Tim, I'd like to ask about some of the components and services where despite your installed base, some parts of the Apple One bundle like Music and News and Arcade and fitness are not obviously the market-leading offerings.

對於我的第一個，Tim，我想詢問一些組件和服務，儘管您的安裝基礎，Apple One 捆綁包的某些部分（例如音樂和新聞以及街機和健身）顯然並不是市場領先的產品。

And maybe, what might change that and what other services could you call out as growing faster, having wider or widening addressable markets like we've seen in pay or advertising?

也許，什麼可能會改變這一點，還有哪些服務可以稱為成長更快，擁有更廣泛或擴大的可尋址市場，就像我們在付費或廣告中看到的那樣？

The way that I view it is that we have lots of opportunity in all of those.

我認為我們在所有這些方面都有很多機會。

And so there's lots of customers to try to convince to take advantage of it and we're going to continue investing in the services and adding new features and, whether it's News+ or Music or Arcade, that's what we're going to do.

因此，有許多客戶試圖說服他們利用它，我們將繼續投資於服務並添加新功能，無論是新聞+、音樂還是街機，這就是我們要做的。

Keep in mind that for us, we're more focused on being best than being most.

請記住，對我們來說，我們更注重成為最好而不是成為最多。

And so in some cases -- not in every case.

所以在某些情況下——並非在所有情況下都是如此。

Some of the services that you -- the majority of the services that you mentioned are not cross platform.

您提到的一些服務—您提到的大多數服務都不是跨平台的。

We make them for our customers only.

我們僅為我們的客戶製造它們。

And so that in some cases changes the person who's going to sell the most perhaps.

因此，在某些情況下，可能會改變銷售量最高的人。

But that's -- our objective is to make the best.

但這是——我們的目標是做到最好。

Okay, thanks.

好的，謝謝。

And then Luca, one piece of unfinished business was your pledge to get to a net neutral cash position.

然後盧卡，您未完成的一項任務是您承諾達到淨中性現金部位。

And over the last two years, you stayed around $50 billion of net cash.

在過去的兩年裡，你保留了大約 500 億美元的淨現金。

We've clearly seen instances in the past where elevated marketing spend or other programs brought increases in market share.

我們在過去已經清楚地看到了行銷支出或其他計劃增加帶來市場份額增加的例子。

I guess, my question looking back on your tenure is at your scale now of $57 billion of OpEx, do you still see incremental ways to put that cash to work in the business or will we just continue to see increased shareholder returns?

我想，回顧您的任期，我​​的問題是，按照您目前營運支出570 億美元的規模，您是否仍會看到增量方式將這些現金用於業務，還是我們會繼續看到股東回報增加？

Well, obviously, as you've seen, our OpEx has gone up over the years.

嗯，顯然，正如您所看到的，我們的營運支出多年來一直在上升。

We've also seen, at the same time, a significant expansion in gross margin, maybe to a level that I would have not expected a few years ago, but we've done a very good job on a number of fronts.

同時，我們也看到毛利率大幅成長，也許達到了我幾年前沒有預料到的水平，但我們在很多方面都做得非常好。

And so I would say, we -- when we plan -- every time we plan for the upcoming year, we think about all the different areas where we can deploy our resources and we make them available to grow the business.

所以我想說，當我們計劃時，每次我們為來年做計劃時，我們都會考慮可以部署資源的所有不同領域，並讓它們可用於發展業務。

I think we've done very well over the long term.

我認為從長遠來看我們做得很好。

But our fundamental philosophy is to look after the business first and then if we have excess cash, we will continue to return it to our shareholders and the plan has worked quite well so far.

但我們的基本理念是先照顧好業務，然後如果我們有多餘的現金，我們將繼續將其返還給我們的股東，到目前為止，該計劃運作良好。

Thank you, Richard.

謝謝你，理查。

We'll take our last question, please, operator.

我們將回答最後一個問題，接線生。

Atif Malik, Citi.

阿蒂夫·馬利克，花旗銀行。

Thank you for squeezing me in.

謝謝你把我擠進去。

It seems to us that the spec differentiation between iPhone 16 Pro and base models isn't as big as prior years.

在我們看來，iPhone 16 Pro 和基本型號之間的規格差異並不像前幾年那麼大。

All iPhones have new 18, 18 Pro chips and there wasn't an increase in ASPs versus last year.

所有 iPhone 都配備了新的 18、18 Pro 晶片，並且平均售價與去年相比沒有增加。

Can you share with us if there is a shift in your strategy in terms of

您能否與我們分享您的策略是否改變了？

(technical difficulty)

（技術難度）

Unfortunately, Mr. Atif's line has dropped.

不幸的是，阿蒂夫先生的線路已經斷線了。

All right.

好的。

Sorry, Atif.

對不起，阿提夫。

We'll connect offline.

我們將離線連接。
