Edible Apple

Apple earlier this week announced that it will release its earnings for the third quarter of 2011 on July 19. An earnings conference call, typically hosted by COO Tim Cook and CFO Peter Oppenheimer, is scheduled to kick off at 5PM Eastern Standard Time.

During the third quarter of 2010 Apple reported earnings of $3.51 a share on revenue of $15.7 billion – which at the time was an all time record. During the third quarter of 2009, Apple recorded earnings of $2.01 a share on revenue of $9.73 billion.

Also during the third quarter of 2010, Apple posted Mac sales of 3.47 million, 9.41 million in iPod sales, 8.4 million iPhone sales, and 3.27 million iPads.

With no new iPhone this Summer, it’ll be interesting to see how Apple’s earnings shape up compared to last year’s.

Note that the earnings conference call can be streamed via Quicktime for the fiscally inclined.
