|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current quarter | 1.28 | 1.21 | +5.60% | $34.85 bn | 19 |

Revenue and margins quarter by quarter
Margin shows how much of sales a company retains. Rising revenue with shrinking margins means growth is coming at the expense of profitability—and that's usually more interesting than sales growth alone.
| Quarter | Revenue | Gross margin | Operating margin | Net margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| June 30, 2026 | $34.25 bn | 61.80% | 20.96% | 11.20% |
| March 31, 2026 | $34.44 bn | 60.30% | 23.93% | 14.65% |
| December 31, 2025 | $36.38 bn | 54.71% | 13.75% | 6.44% |
| September 30, 2025 | $33.82 bn | 60.54% | 23.96% | 14.64% |
| June 30, 2025 | $34.50 bn | 59.76% | 23.68% | 14.50% |
