Apple also generates services revenue from AppleCare, advertising services, cloud services, and other services, including Apple Card and Apple Pay.</p>\n<p>Profit margins on services sales are dramatically larger than on Apple's hardware profits. That means that each dollar of added service sales disproportionately boosts Apple's profits compared to hardware sales.</p>\n<p>Hardware sales still make up the majority of Apple's revenue, however. Apple's iPhone sales alone, which rose 49.8% YOY, accounted for 48.6% of total revenue.</p>\n<p>Apple's strongest sales growth came from China, where Chief Executive Tim Cook said that customers are buying up accessories such as the Apple Watch to pair with their iPhones. China sales grew 58% to $14.76 billion in the fiscal third quarter ended June 26.</p>\n<h4>No future guidance</h4>\n<p>Apple did not provide any specific future guidance in its earnings release. It hasn't provided revenue guidance since the start of the pandemic, citing uncertainty.</p>\n<p>Yet the euphoria quickly turned to disappointment for investors as Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri said revenue growth would slow in the September quarter.

Look how that turned out.</p>\n<p>Chief Executive Cook said, Apple was limited in how many Macs and iPads it could sell because of chip shortages but that the hit to Apple's overall revenue from the shortage was \"lower than the low end\" of its previously forecasted range.
