Apple has already presented the financial results for the second quarter of its fiscal year 2016, closed on March 26, 2016 and the truth is that they have not been as good as many could hope. Before presenting them, Tim Cook himself spoke about how happy they are that his professional team have been able to swim against the current at a time when the entire technology market is going through a somewhat tough situation.
In the case of Apple, despite not having brilliant financial results, they can boast that the service sector than the company itself offers users who consume its products if that has improved.
To recall a bit what our colleagues already pointed out a few days ago, we talk about the financial results being worse than the previous year because Apple had quarterly sales of $ 58000 billion a year ago compared to $ 50600 billion this year, which translates into a net profit of $ 10500 billion compared to $ 13600 billion the previous year.
However, Tim Cook has spoken highly of his new services Apple Music and Apple Pay. As for the first, a music streaming service to which many users did not predict good results already have more than 13 million subscribers, what makes us see that the service is liking, a lot.
Now, where the CEO of Apple places special emphasis is on its mobile payments service, the Apple Pay. It has been said that it is having five times more transactions than in the same fiscal quarter as last year, gaining a million new users every week. Taking into account that the service has not yet been deployed in all countriesThey are truly extraordinary figures.
In recent times, the Cupertino company has launched Apple Pay in Singapore and China, while in the last quarter of 2015 it was launched in Australia and Canada. In addition, it is also available in the United States and the United Kingdom, it is rumored that it will land very soon in Spain, Hong Kong, France and Brazil.
