The Company did not declare or pay cash dividends in either 2010 or 2009. The Company anticipates that for the foreseeable future it will retain any earnings for use in the operation of its business. Apple did used to pay dividends to the owners (The last time Apple paid dividends was in month December of 1995 -$0.12 per share) of its stock but it discontinued that policy. Since, Apple is a fast growing company and the industry it competes in requires constant innovation and rolling out of new products. Apple has always been a good money manager thats why the last quarter (Q3) the total shareholders equity ascended to $69, 343 million dollars.
