Steve Jobs, The Innovator, Resigns As Apple CEO

PRESS RELEASE: Letter from Steve Jobs

August 24, 2011 — To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:

“I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.

I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.

I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.”

Bottomline:

Steve Jobs made the right decision to resign at the best time, when Apple is at the top, Apple became the most valuable company, Apple business is firing on all cylinders, and Apple is armed with the most innovative product portfolio. It takes a bigger man to go out when you are at the top! Bravo Steve Jobs for a great decision... You will be forever missed as the Apple CEO.

iPod and iPhone - Successful Business Innovations

Apple introduced Apple iPod in 2001. Apple iPod business generated total revenue of $537 million in Q4, 2004 (three years from launch), and was already 22.8% of Apple's total revenue of $2.35 billion in Q4, 2004 (easily eclipsing the 5% mark - although electronics and computer segments do show higher average percent revenue from new products - check Figure 1 below). Apple iPod business generated total revenue of $1.82 billion in Q2, 2008, (within seven years from launch), about 24.2 % of Apple's total revenue of $7.5 billion in Q2, 2008 (well ahead of the 15% threshold). Apple iPod business has consistent or better margins than Apple's hardware businesses. As a matter of fact, iPod saved Apple and made Apple successful again. iPod delivered 5.5% of total Apple revenue in 2003, within the first three years of launch, and delivered 34.6% of total Apple revenue in 2007, within the first seven years of launch.

What about the newly launched iPhone from Apple? Is iPhone equally successful as iPod, or better? iPhone is off to a fast start. In the latest quarter, iPhone innovation produced net revenue of $419 million, or 5.61% of Apple’s total revenue of $7.4 billion. This is staggering, since iPhone was only introduced one year ago. It took iPod more than two years to achieve the 5% mark; iPhone achieved this mark in just one year. If iPhone continues the momentum, it could achieve the 15% mark before end of 2009.

Apple On A Tear - Up more than 50% in 3 months

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) shares have run up more than 50% during the last three months.

Apple is one of the Top 20 Innovators of The Innovation Index.

What is driving the stock price?

1. Apple had an impressive second quarter earnings that beat the Wall Street estimates handily. Apple is poised to continue the earnings momentum in 2008, and beyond. How big has Apple revenue grown over the previous five years? About 300%.

2. Mac business is solid as a rock, growing 50% year over year. Apple has just rolled out new versions of iMac clocking over 3 GHz. And Apple is gaining ground in the laptop segment with the MacBooks.

3. iPhone business is strong, and Apple is on track to sell 10 million or more iPhones in 2008 - we estimate over 12 million. Some estimates track iPhone sales of over 5 million already in 2008.

Apple is introducing the all new iPhone 2.0 aka iPhone 3G next month. Further, Apple has created alliances all over the world to sell millions more iPhones.

Four mobile operators in the Asia-Pacific region introduced partnerships with Apple to bring the iPhone to their regions later this year. SingTel in Singapore, Bharti Airtel Ltd. in India, Globe Telecom Inc. in the Philippines and Optus in Australia. SingTel owns Optus and holds a 30.5 percent stake in Bharti and 44.5 percent in Globe. SingTel has about 2.3 million mobile subscribers in Singapore and around 7 million in Australia, according to data as of Dec. 31, 2007. Bharti currently has about 64 million subscribers, while Globe reported a 21.3 million mobile subscriber base for the quarter ended March 31. Potential Available Subscriber base for the iPhone: Over 95 million.

The top mobile phone operator in Latin America, America Movil SAB, (NYSE: AMX), another Top 20 Innovator, also announced plans to deliver the iPhone to its region. America Movil has 159.2 million subscribers in 16 countries, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Mexico.

Apple has also signed deals with Rogers Communications Inc. to sell the device in Canada; Milan-based Telecom Italia SpA to sell the iPhone in Italy; and Vodafone Group PLC, the world's biggest mobile company by sales, to sell it in a total of 10 countries, including Australia, India, Italy and Turkey.

Finally, Apple sells iPhone with AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T), another Top 20 Innovator, in the United States, O2 in Britain, T-Mobile in Germany and France Telecom's Orange wireless arm in France.

In short, Apple has available subscriber base in the hundreds of millions for the iPhone - now it's a matter of time before Apple launches the new 3G iPhone, and potentially expands the market for the iPhone to tens of millions a year beginning in 2009.

The Innovation Index Fund Manager, that invests in Apple, is up 10% in 2008. The Top 20 Innovators of The Innovation Index have rebounded well in the 2nd quarter of 2008 to cause The Innovation Index Fund Manager to have double-digit gain for the year.

Innovation Index Group believes that the U.S. economy will recover significantly in the 2nd half of 2008, and the Top Innovators of The Innovation Index will reward the patient, long-term investor.

Innovation Index Group has BUY recommendations on the Top 20 Innovators of The Innovation Index, and price target of $235 - $250 for Apple in Q4, 2008.
