Apple’s New CEO Will Inherit Strong Sales and Even Greater Expectations

Cook endorsed John Ternus as the right leader and said Apple’s quarterly sales rose 17% to $111.2 billion.

  • John Ternus made his earnings-call debut on Thursday, introducing himself to Wall Street as Apple's incoming CEO, who will officially take over in September from CEO Tim Cook.
  • Cook, who has led the Cupertino company for 15 years, shared guidance with Ternus mirroring advice he received from Apple CEO Steve Jobs: never forget the North Star of enriching lives through products.
  • Apple beat Wall Street expectations, with quarterly Sales rising 17 percent to $111.2 billion year-over-year, while net income increased 19 percent to $29.5 billion, underscoring the company's strong financial position.
  • Ternus promised to continue the "deep thoughtfulness, deliberateness and discipline" that marked Cook's tenure, while teasing an "incredible roadmap" of future products without revealing details.
  • Though supply constraints may impact the upcoming quarter, Cook reiterated that weaving AI-driven tools across Apple's devices—rather than standalone software—differentiates the company in the competitive market.
