Apple 1Q23 10-Q Takeaways, Apple's Share Buyback Update, Revisiting Apple’s Cash Neutral Goal (Daily Update)

Hello everyone. Today’s update will conclude our Apple earnings review as we go over Apple’s 1Q23 10-Q and focus on some balance sheet items (share buyback pace and Apple’s cash neutral goal). The plan is to include an updated version of Neil’s Apple earnings model in tomorrow’s update. Let’s jump right in.


Apple 1Q23 10-Q Takeaways

Published at the end of FY1Q, 2Q, and 3Q, 10-Q filings provide additional commentary and disclosures regarding a company's financial results.

The following items from Apple's 1Q23 10-Q jumped out at me. We will discuss Apple’s share buyback shortly.

Product Details. Apple provided additional commentary behind sales trends for its major product categories.

  • iPhone. Net sales decreased in 1Q23 due “primarily to lower net sales from the Company’s new iPhone models.” The comment is referring to Apple not being able to report iPhone unit sales growth due to iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max shortages.
