Tim Cook is leaving Apple in great financial shape

Despite the Vision Pro flop and the lack of notable innovation in recent years, Apple $AAPL remains a company with outstanding business stability metrics.

🟢 Green Team Says:

The company stands to benefit from integrating AI into its products. We expect revenue growth to accelerate: 8% expected 3-year annual growth vs. 2% historical.

Profit margins are remarkably resilient and have steadily expanded throughout Cook's tenure: 21% ten years ago, 27% in the latest year.

Quality Gems like this, with high Risk Shield scores, are currently commanding a premium from the market (Forward P/E = 32x, 36% premium to historical averages).

Portfolio Manager:

At the moment, due to average growth ratings, Apple doesn't quite make it into Bastion's fundamental portfolios. Its composite GEAR+ score is high, but there are companies with even stronger numbers.
