This article, Apple Computer financial history, covers the subject of Apple Computer's financial history and the AAPL stock symbol.

Financial history

In 2000, in the third quarter, profit was down at $200 million from $233 million in the second quarter. In the following fourth quarter, Apple reported a lower than expected profit of $170 million. Apple also reported a disappointing first quarter 2001 results based on estimates due to an industry-wide decline in PC sales during that period.

Stock

'AAPL' is the stock symbol under which Apple Computer trades on the NASDAQ stock market. Apple originally went public in on December 12, 1980, with an initial public offering at $22.00 per share. Apple does not currently pay dividends on its common stock. Apple paid dividends from June 15, 1987 to December 15, 1995. In 1997, while Gil Amelio was still Apple CEO, AAPL stock hit a 12-year low and the company reported a $708 million loss in the first quarter.

In 2005, Apple stock increased in value and then split; each shareholder of record at the close of business on February 18, 2005 received one additional share for every outstanding share held on the record date, and trading began on a split-adjusted basis on February 28, 2005.

As of January 13, 2006 the last trade was at $85.58 per share, up by 1.54% and Apple currently has a market capitalization of $72.13 billion. Gene Munster and Michael Olson of Piper Jaffray are the main analysts who track Apple stock. Piper Jaffray estimate future stock and revenue of Apple annually, and have been doing so for several years. On January 13, 2006 Gene Munster maintained an 'outperform' rating on Apple and raised his price target and earnings estimates for the company. Munster raised Apple's price target to US$103 from $80, and raised fiscal 2006 estimates for Apple to $20.22 billion revenue from $17.58 billion. The analyst also said that a two-for-one stock split is likely to be announced soon.
