"At least some of the new iPhones could be released several weeks later than normal, though still within the typical fall window, according to Bloomberg's sources. Apple reportedly hasn't informed suppliers of any significant delays, and the company's engineers are expected to travel to China and finalize product designs in May."

buy back plus points :-
1. Decrease oustanding shares, thereby increasing EPS number as treasury shares not counted.
2. Signals to the public that the company is cash rich, no cashflow issue.
3. Utilize company cash to generate potential better returns than money market rates (<3% pa) if left in banks or in invested in money market funds, by selling out later when price is high.
4. Incentive to shareholders in the future if the treasury shares distributed to shareholders.
5. Can be cancelled out, reducing supply of shares in the market, EPS increased when earnings are improved.

buy back negative points :-
1. Company not utilizing the cash for expansion of capacity, or R&D, hiring, future plans etc.
2. Buy back shares will not help in share prices most of the time as market forces are usually bigger than the buy back quantity.
3. Cash can be distributed to shareholders instead of buying shares.
4. Company should focus on improving its business, preserving cash during bad times, rather than simply spending to buy shares which does not help its core business.

@toto, pray tonight US drop another 4%, then maybe Monday we can buy low again hahah

2.65? 那两块八我还是忍忍手...=.=

Bursa1199, IDRP is the Axreit's Dividend Reinvestment Plan, they will utilise the dividend you entitled to purchase more units at a specified price (1.67 in this case), or alternatively you may ignore the plan to take cash.

looks like a good result, management guided order book over 200mil? thats equivalent to whole 2019s revenue? wow..

@shazza, because the dividend is 1.1sen, the total dividend you are entitled as at exdate will be total units x 0.011; then the offer of IDRP is the amount divide by $1.67, u will get the total units u are entitled. There is another option for you to opt for half of it. On regards whether or not you should take it or take cash, this is entirely upto you, if you are a long-term holder, u may take it as the price is much lower than current market price, long term holders wont bother about odd lots as next year there could be another round (as prev years there was another round); if you are not so-long term, then you can take cash, then you do not need to send in the forms. Cheers :)

Potentially bundling of airpods in the top end model of new iphone?
"The biggest change of all could come next year, as the analysts said they see potential for Apple to remove the Lightning connector from at least one iPhone model in 2021, echoing a prediction shared by fellow analyst Ming-Chi Kuo last month. This could result in wired EarPods being removed from the box, they said."
