Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) designs, manufactures, and markets smartphones, personal computers, tablets, wearables, and accessories. It offers iPhones, Macs, iPads, AirPods, Apple TV, Apple Watch, Beats products, and HomePod. It also provides AppleCare support and cloud services, and operates various platforms like the App Store.

While Apple operates across various product categories, a significant driver of its revenue and growth is its Services segment. In FQ2 2025, the company’s Services segment achieved an all-time revenue record of $26.6 billion, which was up 12% year-over-year. The Services segment encompasses offerings like the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, and Apple Pay. Both transacting and paid accounts in this segment reached new all-time highs, with paid accounts growing by double digits year-over-year.

Apple now boasts well over 1 billion paid subscriptions across its Services platform. Morgan Stanley analyst Erik Woodring raised the price target on Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) to $235 from $220 on April 29 and kept an Overweight rating. The firm expects June quarter guidance to modestly exceed consensus, despite some downside given the current tariff situation.

Columbia Seligman Global Technology Fund maintained its position in the company and stated the following regarding Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) in its Q4 2024 investor letter:

“The fund maintained a position in Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) throughout the quarter through the release of the company’s new iPhone 16 in September. Company leaders were excited about the release of the new model, as this is the first model that will feature enhanced AI capabilities through the Apple Intelligence features. Sales for the first few weeks in October and November trailed behind year over year sales from the iPhone 15, as availability of Apple Intelligence was not compatible with all iPhone models. Apple announced a partnership with OpenAI that has allowed the integration of ChatGPT into the Apple ecosystem, separate from the core Apple Intelligence features. This partnership highlights continued progress from Apple to introduce AI capabilities into its products and we expect the iPhone 17 to have even more expansive AI capabilities, increasing potential demand for the new model that is on track to be released in 2025.”
