As usual since the start of the Corona pandemic, Apple has not provided any official revenue guidance for the current quarter, but Tim Cook expects Apple's quarterly revenue growth to accelerate in September compared to the June quarter.

Speaking on Apple's earnings call, Cook said the company faces a "mixture of headwinds" affecting its revenue, including a strong US dollar that's expected to cause foreign currency headwinds of about $5 billion in the September quarter, along with Supply restrictions and business loss in Russia due to its war on Ukraine. He also said the wearables, home and accessories category is also facing headwinds.

Apple's fourth quarter began on June 26 and will run until September 24. This quarter has already included the start of orders for the new MacBook Air with the M2 chip, and before the end of the quarter there will be pre-orders for the iPhone 14 that may positively affect it.
