What the analyst said

KeyBanc analyst Brandon Nispel reiterated a Sector Weight rating on Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL).

“We found AAPL’s WWDC AI updates to be lacking in the context of what we thought was generally a high bar for advancements of Apple Intelligence.

We saw: no clear signs of monetization of AI; Apple’s reliance on Google Gemini; very few use cases where Apple App integration was materially beneficial; and a slightly better standalone Siri, which is still worse than other LLMs.

WWDC was where Apple Intelligence was supposed to drive an upgrade cycle, but this seems to no longer be the case, even though some of the most advanced on-device model features require iPhone 17 or newer.”
