Apple Inc.'s AAPL +1.83% fiscal first-quarter earnings edged up 0.1% as the
consumer electronics company reported record iPhone and iPad sales, though
margins weakened.
Shares fell 4% to $493 after hours. The stock, which reached an 11-month low
last week following reports that Apple cut production for the iPhone for the
current quarter, has fallen 16% over the past three months.
The latest quarter marks the first full period to include sales of the iPhone
5, which launched in late September. The company sold a record 47.8 million
iPhone smartphones in the latest period, up 29% from a year earlier.

Apple's first-quarter earnings call
Apple also sold a record 22.9 million iPad touch-screen tablet computers in
the most recent quarter, a 49% year-over-year increase. The company released
the iPad Mini, which has slimmer margins than the iPad, in November.
Analysts had estimated between 47 million and 50 million iPhone sales and 22
million to 25 million iPad sales for the quarter.
The maker of computers and electronics devices, known for traditionally
giving conservative guidance, said it expects second-quarter revenue between
$41 billion and $43 billion. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters forecast
revenue of $45.38 billion. Apple didn't provide a per-share earnings estimate
for the second quarter.
