Apple sold 37.4M iPhones, 19.5M iPads as Mac numbers dip

Thanks, iPhones!

Apple posted its second quarter fiscal year 2013 earnings today as industry observers and the jackals of Wall Street watched closely.

By the numbers the firm sold 37.4 million iPhones last quarter, which ended March 30. That's compared to 35.1 million the same quarter one year ago.

iPad sales amounted to 19.5 million, up from 11.8 million from the same time last year. Mac sales dipped, dropping from 4 million the year-ago quarter to just under 4 million this go-around.

It was thanks to iPad and iPhone sales that the company was able to post what CEO Tim Cook called in a press release, "record March quarter revenue." For the quarter, the company posted US$43.6 billion in revenue and net profit of US$9.5 billion. That's compared to US$39.2 billion and US$11.6 billion during the same time last year.

We'll have more from the company's earnings call, which gets underway at 2 p.m. PDT, so stay tuned as this story develops.
