Apple recently reported its first-quarter earnings, which saw an overall increase year-over-year and exceeded market expectations. However, the stock saw a slide in after-hours trading due to a revenue decline in China.

Why It Matters: The earnings report from Apple highlighted a successful quarter with record Services revenue and iPhone revenue. The company’s earnings per share stood at $2.18, and the total revenue was $119.6 billion. This performance marked the end of a four-quarter streak of revenue decline.

Apple reported revenue growth in every region compared to the previous year, except in China, where sales experienced a decline of 12.9%. China, traditionally a significant market for Apple in terms of both demand and supply, faced challenges due to competition from Huawei, strained U.S.-China relations, and unfavorable economic conditions.

However, despite the overall positive performance, the technology giant experienced a downturn in the Chinese market, which seemed to have alarmed investors leading to the stock’s dip in the after-hours trading.
