Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) reported fourth quarter earnings after the bell on Monday, posting earnings per share of $2.10 on revenue of $114.48 billion, topping Bloomberg analyst consensus estimates of $2 per share on revenue of $113.46 billion. The print marked the first earnings call led by new CEO John Ternus, who took over the role from Tim Cook on September 1, 2025. Despite the top and bottom-line beats driven by robust iPhone sales, Apple stock faced downward pressure in extended trading.

Across the broader index, approximately 60% of S&P 500 companies have reported third-quarter results according to FactSet data, posting an overall earnings growth rate of 30.2% and tracking toward a third straight quarter of growth exceeding 25%. In parallel tape action, Roku ($ROKU+WL) posted a substantial earnings beat on Monday with revenue climbing 24% year over year to $1.5 billion, beating estimates of $1.41 billion. Roku announced in June 2025 that it entered an agreement to be acquired by Fox (FOX) and would forgo hosting a conference call or issuing forward forecasts.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) also delivered an earnings beat on Monday, reporting third-quarter revenue of $2.313 billion—a 96% increase from the prior year that surpassed Bloomberg consensus estimates of $2.17 billion. Palantir raised its full-year revenue outlook to between $8.530 billion and $8.534 billion and lifted its U.S. commercial sales target above $3.559 billion as commercial adoption outpaced government sales.
