Apple Inc.
Those Are Some Big Numbers; Lifting Dec-12 Price
Target to $715
For OW-rated Apple, we are raising estimates and our Dec-I2 price target to $715, vs.
$625 previously. The key drivers of our estimate changes are better than expected unit
sales activity of the iPhone and iPad. The purpose of our report is to highlight the
incremental changes in unit growth trajectories versus ow prior expectations. Looking
ahead, there are plenty of potential near to mid-term catalysts, including I) MacBook
refresh, 2) iPhone refresh, and 3) increasing penetration of Asia-Pacific. Longer term,
we think that the eventual introduction of Microsoft Office for the iPad should open
the door for Apple to the enterprise PC segment.
• Taking numbers higher. We are making significant increases to our operating
estimates. Our research indicates that the iPhone and iPad shipment activity in the
supply chain implies major upside potential to ow previous estimates. We are not
trying to inflate expectations ahead of the Mar-Q print. Our intent is to
communicate the incremental delta in our new and old estimates as identified by our
recent research. The magnitude of the revisions, if accurate, stands to drive
increased investor sponsorship of the stock in the near to mid term, in our view.
Big iPhone unit revisions. Our research indicates that Mar-Q iPhone unit
shipments tracked closer to 30-32 million. Our new estimate is 31.1 million, versus
28.1 million previously. We think that investors are expecting 29-31 million units.
The flow-through effects of our revisions lift our new C2012 iPhone units estimate
to 138.2 million, versus 128.7 million previously.
Big iPad unit revisions. Our research indicates that Mar-Q iPad unit shipments
tracked closer to 13-14 million. Ow new estimate is 13.8 million, versus 10.1
million previously. We think that investors are expecting 11-12 million units. The
flow-through effects of our revisions result in our new C2012 iPad units estimate
moving to 69.6 million, versus 58.6 million previously.
• MacBook refresh is important. We expect Apple to refresh its MacBook portfolio,
including the Air, in the next three months. Our view is that the refresh needs to
introduce incremental improvements in specs/features and lower price points.
Reason being, the competitive gap could narrow if the Ultrabook crowd can reduce
the price points with their second and third generation launches. Plus, we think that
Apple needs to sustain its competitive edge on the technology front. Otherwise, it is
our view that investors could worry that future Apple product refreshes (i.e., iPhone
or iPad) could lose customer appeal.

• Longer-term catalyst: enterprise PCs. While the potential of an Apple TV has
captivated the media and investment communities alike, we believe that another long-term
catalyst to consider is Apple penetrating the enterprise PC segment. The company has
limited exposure to the enterprise segment, which comprises approximately 40% of global
PC units. Our view is that the eventual introduction of Microsoft Office for the iPad could
open up the enterprise PC installed base to tablets, specifically, Apple's iPad. We further
discuss this topic and more in this report.

Investment Thesis
J.P.Morgan
With Apple, we reiterate our Overweight rating and increase our Dec-12 price target
to $715, versus $625 previously. The stock remains on the J.P. Morgan Analyst
Focus List. In ow view, the best part of Apple's risk-reward profile is that plenty
more upside potential exists, likely elevating Apple's revenue and earnings growth to
a completely new orbit. In other words, Apple is in a league of its own. Key growth
drivers include 1) Apple's low market penetration rates in tablets, PCs, China, and
the enterprise, 2) the relative growth prospects of its key end markets versus other
tech segments, and 3) Apple's role in enabling the burgeoning social
media/networking adoption curve. In total, we believe that these drivers can sustain
the relative outperformance of Apple's operating model and stock.
Key Points
Big iPhone unit revisions
Our research indicates that Mar-Q iPhone unit shipments tracked closer to 30-32
million. Our new estimate is 31] million, versus 28.1 million previously. We think
that investors are expecting 29-31 million units. The flow-through effects of our
revisions lift our new C2012 iPhone units estimate to 138.2 million, versus 1283
million previously.
While increasing penetration of new wireless carriers has been a major tailwind, we
believe that the installed base also has become large enough to support a bigger
replacement cycle. Looking ahead, our assumption is that a new iPhone 5 with a
thinner body and LTE capability will be launched in 2H C2012, which should sustain
the iPhone's above-peer growth trajectory.
Big iPad unit revisions
Our research indicates that Mar-Q iPad unit shipments tracked closer to 13-14
million. Our new estimate is 13.8 million, versus 10.1 million previously. We think
that investors are expecting 11-12 million units. The flow-through effects of our
revisions result in our new 02012 iPad units estimate moving to 69.6 million, versus
58.6 million previously.
The Thew iPad" launch has driven increased follow-through in the supply chain over
the past 30 days, and at this point, we think the trend-line is for bigger unit levels in
the coming quarters. As stated previously, we believe that Apple's latest iPad refresh
and broader price bands stand to widen the gap on the trailing peers.
MacBook refresh is important
We expect Apple to refresh its MacBook portfolio, including the Air, in the next
three months. Ow view is that the refresh needs to introduce incremental
improvements in specs/features as well as lower price points. Reason being, the
competitive gap could narrow if the Ultrabook crowd can reduce the price points
with their second and third generation launches. Plus, we think that Apple needs to
sustain its competitive edge on the technology front. Otherwise, it is our view that
investors could start to worry that future Apple product refreshes (i.e., iPhone or
iPad) could lose customer appeal. We do point out that Apple's common user

interface across multiple devices has not been replicated by other vendors, yet, which
we think remains a major advantage for Apple. Windows 8 (to be launched in
October 2012) is trying to bridge this gap, but we think that it could take a few
iterations before any compelling comparisons can be made.
Longer-term catalyst: enterprise PCs
While the potential of an Apple TV has captivated the media and investment
communities alike, we believe that another catalyst to consider is Apple penetrating
the enterprise PC segment. The company has limited exposure to the enterprise
segment, which comprises approximately 40% of global PC units. Our view is that
the eventual introduction of Microsoft Office for the iPad could open up the
enterprise PC installed base to tablets, specifically, Apple's iPad.
Currently, enterprise customers represent 5% to 6% of global tablet units, but we
think that Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) programs are not likely captured in that
figure. So, we assume that total tablet units could be closer to 10% enterprise related.
In any event, the current figure is a long way from the 40% enterprise representation
in PCs. With Microsoft Office, we think that tablets could evolve into productivity
devices instead of just content-driven experiences, and thereby open up the 40% of
global PCs to the tablet market for substitution, which we think would favor Apple
given the absence of compelling tablet alternatives so far.
Our latest CIO survey results (published on March 29) highlighted that enterprises
continue to rank mobile device integration as a top investment priority relating to
new projects. We believe that tablets and smartphones are part of this mobile device
integration initiative, and again, tablets stand to gain greater traction once the
Microsoft Office becomes available on tablets. Overall, we think that Apple stands to
be a lead beneficiary of this emerging trend, given its product technology lead on
both the hardware and software.
A word on Apple and the TV market
With respect to the much-discussed topic of Apple potentially entering the TV
market, we do not have a strong view on the timing or the full extent of any product.
Given the challenging economics of the TV market, we are inclined to think that
Apple could first try entering the market with a set-top box that manages users'
content and programming, thus extending the common interface of the iPhone, iPad,
and Mac. We believe that this approach could help the company steer clear of the
lean margins facing TV makers.
Our research does not suggest any set-top box is in the demo or prototype stage. We
also do not have any signposts of an actual TV product prototype, although the recent
partnership of Hon Hai and Sharp has stirred media/investor speculation that Apple's
largest contract manufacturer could be laying the foundation for an Apple TV supply
chain. Here, we arc still on the sidelines, as it could be difficult for Apple to convince
TV customers to pay the Apple premium when Sony, Sharp, and Samsung make
highly-competent TVs, currently.

Earnings Outlook
J.P.Morgan
We are making significant increases to our operating estimates. Our research
indicates that the iPhone and iPad shipment activity in the supply chain implies
major upside potential to our previous estimates. We are not trying to inflate
expectations ahead of the Mar-Q print. Our intent is to communicate the incremental
delta in our new and old estimates as identified by our recent research. The
magnitude of the revisions, if accurate, stands to drive increased investor sponsorship
of the stock in the near to mid term, in ow view.
For Mar-Q, ow revised revenue and EPS estimates are $39] billion and $10.80,
versus $34.9 billion and $9.42 previously. Our revised gross and operating margin
assumptions are 43.3% and 34.6%, versus 42.6% and 33.7% previously. A big driver
is our revised iPhone unit shipments estimate of 31.1 million, versus 28.1 million
previously. Our revised iPad unit shipments estimate is 13.8 million, versus 10.1
million previously. For both product families, the upward revisions are significant,
driving our top-line and bottom-line estimates well above the Street consensus
estimates of $35.7 billion and $9.77. Higher mix of iPhones also lifts gross margin.

We reiterate our Overweight rating and increase our Dec 12 price target to
$715, versus $625 previously. Apple is also on the J.P. Morgan Analyst Focus List
and remains one of our top picks in ow coverage universe. Our price target is derived
from a weighted blend of EV/EBITDA and P/E scenarios utilizing historical
peak/trough multiples. With Apple, we think it is time for the "value stock" valuation
multiples to be re-rated higher. Our revenue and EPS growth estimates position
Apple as the lone star in large cap tech. Currently, Apple trades at 12.8x ow C2012
EPS estimate, versus the peer group average of I 2.3x. In our view, Apple is still
trading like a value stock and not as the high-growth story in large cap tech. We
expect Apple to continue outperforming on both top- and bottom-line growth metrics
relative to the peers as the company's rapid growth phenomena of the iPhone and
iPad intensify. Plus, do not forget about the Mac business, we think that the
company's incremental market penetration opportunities can help the Mac become a
major contributor to overall company growth in the coming years.

Risks to Rating and Price Target
J.P.Morgan
Macroeconomic and secular conditions
We assume that Apple possesses partial buffers to any shocks in the macroeconomic
environment or the ASP challenges in the PC or smartphones markets. Should
incremental weakness blunt end market demand more than expected or slow Apple's
International and retail store expansion, then our view and estimates could be at risk.
Competitive dynamics
We assume that Apple will continue to outgrow the market in smartphones, tablets,
and Pa. Should competitive responses in these three segments disrupt Apple's
business, then our view could be at risk to the downside.
Gross margin
Our view assumes that Apple's gross margin profile hovers near the 39-40%
threshold as component pricing eases and manufacturing yields on newer products
improve. Should these dynamics not manifest, then our view and estimates could
have risk to the downside.
Rate of new product cycles
We expect Apple to sustain its rigid cycle of new product refreshes. Should the
company begin to slow in its technology improvements and frequency of refreshes,
the company's image as a provider for leading-edge solutions could take a hit. In
such a case, we fear that investors could begin to lose interest in the story.
