On Tuesday July 21, Apple will release its Q309 fiscal earnings, naturally towards the end of this week and no doubt on Monday and Tuesday of next week analysts and the street have been hedging bets on where Apple will land.
To recap during the 3rd fiscal quarter of 2009 Apple released the new iPhone 3GS slashing the price of the iPhone 3G to $99 and at WWDC Apple refreshed and lowered prices across the entire notebook lineup.
The street is expecting Apple to announce earnings of $1.16 a share on revenue of $8.2 billion, to give some perspective Apple predicted revenue in the range of $7.7 to $7.9 billion on an earnings per share price between $0.95 and $1.00.
Some analysts have concerns over lower than expected Mac and iPod shipments but are overall still expecting between 2.3-2.5 million Mac unit shipments and 10-11 million iPod shipments. iPhone shipments are expected between 4.5 and 5 million.
