Até o dia 31/12/20111, a Apple possuía 97 bilhões de dólares de "caixa total", ou seja, a soma de caixa e equivalentes,aplicações de curto prazo e de longo prazo. É oportuno lembrar que as aplicações de longo prazo estão em subsidiárias no exterior e sujeitas a tributação de 35% no momento da sua repatriação. Além da adequada utilização desses recursos para gerar riqueza. Na última segunda-feira, a Apple anunciou que irá distribuir divendos trimestralmente e recomprará 10 bilhões de dólares em ações. A Moody's divulgou um estudo que apresenta alguns dados interessantes:
Apple alone represents $64 billion or 36% of the total $179 billion increase in corporate cash since 2009. And in 2011, overall corporate cash would have actually declined by $6 billion had it not been for Apple’s $46 billion increase. Unless Apple changes its philosophy towards liquidity by instituting a one-time or ongoing common dividend, or if Apple starts to buy back stock, we estimate Apple’s cash balances could increase by more than $50 billion in 2012 and approximate $150 billion.
Supported by our expectations that consumers worldwide will continue to feast on Apple products, we expect overall corporate cash and its concentration will increase in 2012. Apple alone could represent 12% of total corporate cash, about three times more than the next cash king. …
