But the quarter changed quickly, and Apple broke with its usual practice of providing an estimated range of sales for the current quarter. Apple stores outside mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and South Korea remained shuttered. Cook declined to comment on whether Apple faces supply chain disruptions for devices that will be released later this year. Cook said Apple had 515 million subscribers to apps and services on Apple’s platform, up by 125 million from one year earlier. Apple’s wearables and accessories segment, which includes Apple’s AirPods and Apple Watch, was $6.3 billion, compared with analyst estimates of $6.7 billion, according to FactSet data.
