Investment Thesis

•Catalysts:

1. Tablet- Deltoitte expects companies to purchase 10million tablet devices in 2011 (APPL has 75% market share of tablets).

•Tablet has been tested or deplowed at 80% of Fortune 100 companies. Medtronic has given 5,000 iPads to sales reps and SAP has bought 3,500 for company use.

•Industry tracker iSuppli predicts Apple will ship 43.7 million iPads this year and 63.3 million in 2012.

2. Next generation of IT professionals- as more young people become familiar with apple computers, they will request these computers in the workforce. Macs have less viruses, spam, crashes and need for upgrade compared to PC

International vs. domestic: Revenue for North America hit $18.7billion in 2010. All other geographic areas reached $15.5billion. Average 2-yr growth was 35.62% and 31.68% respectively.

AWS contributed to $500million in revenue in 2010

Expected to bring in $2.5billion in revenue by 2014.

With companies who have their own hardware assets, servers might reach a max utilization of 25%. Since AWS only charges for what a company uses, utilization is close to 100%

Using AWS, a company will save security, upgrade, and personnel costs.
