Apple has announced their financial results for Q1 of fiscal year 2009, ending December 27, 2008…. how that makes sense, I have no idea…. Anyways, the revenue for the quarter is an Apple record of $10.17 billion, with a profit of $1.61 billion.

These record profits are driven by the following sales numbers for the quarter, indicated growth is over numbers from the same quarter of last year;

- 2,524,000 Mac computers (9% growth)

- 22,727,000 iPods (3% growth)

-  4,363,000 iPhones (88% growth)

The Steve said in response to these numbers;

“Even in these economically challenging times, we are incredibly pleased to report our best quarterly revenue and earnings in Apple history—surpassing $10 billion in quarterly revenue for the first time ever,”.

Looks like Apple will make it through these tough economic times fairly well, although I am sure that the full weight of the situation has yet to hit them… we’ll see what 2009 has in store!
