Insight & Summary of Apple’s Gross Profit By Product Line
The following analysis consolidates the trends observed for Apple’s gross profit by product line, profit mix, gross margin, and YoY growth rates for the 2017–2025 period.
-
The data underscores a profound structural evolution in Apple’s profitability, driven by the remarkable performance of its Services division.
-
Over the observed period (2017-2025), the gross margin for Services has relentlessly expanded, climbing from 55.0% in 2017 to an incredibly lucrative 75.4% by 2025. As a direct result, Services’ share of the overall gross profit mix has more than doubled, jumping from 20.4% to 42.2%.
-
In contrast, while the hardware-driven Products segment remains the majority profit contributor in absolute dollars ($112.8 billion in 2025), its growth has plateaued, averaging a slightly negative YoY growth rate (-0.47%) over the last three years following its 2021 pandemic-era peak.
-
Despite this hardware deceleration, the high-margin nature of Services has successfully elevated Apple’s consolidated financial profile. Total Gross Profit has surged to a record $195.2 billion in 2025, and the Total Gross Margin has expanded from a historical baseline of around 38% up to nearly 47%.
