14 DAY TRIAL // The company headquartered in Cupertino, California developing the Mac operating system is gearing up for the disclosure of its quarterly earnings for fiscal 2010, as revealed on its web site mere minutes ago. Apple’s FY 10 First Quarter Results Conference Call is scheduled for Monday, January 25, 2:00 p.m. PST/5:00 p.m. EST.
Via its press room, Apple has confirmed its first quarter conference call for the year 2010, which is set to become available as a continuous rebroadcast beginning Monday, January 25 at 5:00 p.m. PST/8:00 p.m. EST through Monday, February 8 at 5:00 p.m. PST/8:00 p.m. EST. The Mac maker will provide live audio streaming of its FY 10 First Quarter Results Conference Call via its QuickTime player beginning 2:00 p.m. PST on January 25, 2010 at this address.
“Apple’s conference call webcast discussing Q1 - 2010 financial results will begin at 2:00pm PT/5:00pm ET on Monday, January 25, 2010,” the company reveals. “Please note that comments made during this call may include forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from these forward-looking statements. For more information on the factors that could influence results, please refer to Apple’s SEC filings.”
The conference call will also be available for replay for approximately two weeks thereafter. To attend, interested parties are required to download and install QuickTime 6 or QuickTime 7 (if not installed already). As usual, the recording is the property of Apple and protected by U.S. copyright law and international treaties.
In related news, Gene Munster, a renowned analyst with research firm Piper Jaffray, has recently issued a note to his clients stating that Mac retail sales in the U.S. are up about 26% year-over-year for the December quarter, based on numbers tracked by NPD Group and his own analysis of the matter. To be noted that these estimates are higher than the average Wall Street estimate of 19% year-over-year growth. Munster believes this translates into about 3.1 million Macs sold in the U.S. last quarter.
