Cross-examination

Q. iPhone grew 4% in FY2025 with Apple Intelligence available. Where's the upgrade cycle?

A. Filed evidence: iPhone $201,183M (FY2024) → $209,586M (FY2025) = +4.2%. Apple Intelligence launched with iPhone 16 (Sep 2024). FY2025 includes 9 months of AI-capable hardware in the market. +4% is not a supercycle. Q2 FY2026 shows +17% total acceleration but tariff pull-forward is a confounding factor. The AI upgrade cycle is call-stated, not filed. (Apple FY2025 10-K; Apple Q2 FY2026 10-Q — PRIMA
