Wall Street analysts expect Apple (AAPL - Free Report) to post quarterly earnings of $2.65 per share in its upcoming report, which indicates a year-over-year increase of 10.4%. Revenues are expected to be $137.47 billion, up 10.6% from the year-ago quarter.
The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has undergone an upward revision of 0.4% in the past 30 days, bringing it to its present level. This represents how the covering analysts, as a whole, have reassessed their initial estimates during this timeframe.
