Apple stock (ISIN US0378331005) closed at USD 331.34 on September 15, 2026, after a 0.52 percent decline, with a market capitalization of USD 4.84 trillion and volume of 31.66 million shares. The June quarter also set a clear operating base: revenue reached USD 109.42 billion and earnings per share came in at USD 2.02.
Q3 numbers still set the tone
According to MarketBeat, Apple last released quarterly earnings on July 30, 2026, with revenue of USD 109.42 billion, EPS of USD 2.02 and year-over-year revenue growth of 16.4 percent. The same report put net margin at 27.62 percent and return on equity at 135.46 percent.
That comparison matters for investors because the quarter beat consensus: EPS topped estimates of USD 1.89 by USD 0.13, while revenue exceeded expectations of USD 109.04 billion. The figures show that the stock is still trading against a high-quality profit base, not only against valuation debate.
Analysts stay split
According to TipRanks, Wamsi Mohan at BofA reiterated a Buy view on September 14, 2026, with a price objective of USD 370.00, while the consensus price target stood at USD 336.11 versus a last close of USD 333.08. According to MarketBeat, Apple also carried a consensus rating of Moderate Buy and a consensus target price of USD 338.80.
The split is visible in the price targets themselves. MarketBeat cited KGI Securities cutting Apple to Hold with a USD 315.00 objective, while Morgan Stanley kept an Overweight rating and a USD 360.00 target on September 2, 2026.
Stock near the range
Zacks said on September 16, 2026, that Apple traded around USD 330, about 4 percent below its 52-week and all-time high. On the same market snapshot, the stock was still valued at roughly 38 times fiscal 2026 consensus earnings of USD 8.85 per share.
Apple stock closed at USD 331.34 on September 15, 2026, with a market cap of USD 4.84 trillion and a 0.52 percent daily decline. The combination of a USD 109.42 billion June quarter and a near-record valuation keeps every move in the shares under close scrutiny.
